TIE LADIES' FAIR FOR THE STONE
Wall BAND.-There liasn' been In Staun-
ton a better arranged and more successful
fair than that given by the ladies for the
benefit of the ssStonewall Brigade Band. y
The opening night sealed the ssuc-
cess of the undertaking by making the
happiest impression on the public The
scene in the main room was very line where
man could see enough through the crowd
to appreciate it. The walls were adorned
with portraits of Lee and jackson, and
many fancy paintings. At the end was
perfect bower of table of fancy articles
beautifully arranged by Mrs. Chas. %.
Haines and Miss Mary Lushbaugh, who
were in charge of it. Further on was a k,ag
table of cakes and all sorts of confectionery
in charge of Mrs. DR.. Churchman, Miss
Kate Trotter and Miss Florence Hendry.
And just adjoining that was the Post
Office, with Miss Stanley Hendry us Post
mistress, and Miss Katie Cushing and
Miss Ida Link, mailing clerks. And ad-
joining that was music stand for the
band, where the sweetest music was played
at all hours of the evening. Another room
was a spacious dining saloon with long ia
bles, filled with every delicacy OF the sea-
son. One table was under the supervision
of Mrs. VIM. Kinney and Mrs Jno. HUI
bert, and the other was presided over by
Miss Cora Turner, Mrs. N. Is. Hendry,
Mrs. S. A. Hoshour and Mrs. M. A. Slmp-
son. On one of these tables was roast
pig ornamented with roses and other How
ers artistically made by Mr.. Dennis Bap-
tiste, the cook at the Virginia Hotel, out
of turnips, carrots and beets. On the
other was a pig roasted by Tom Lee, the
cook at the American Hotel. In another
room still was the cooking depaEsment fur
nished with proper utensils, presided over
by John Martin, a colored cook, where hot
suppers were furnished at a minutes no.
tice. The general superintendent of the
fair was in the hands of Mrs. Jno. M. Car
roll, who took the place of Mrs. Richard
Hawkins, who had been called to the bed
side of her son, Mr.. James z. Hawkins,
who is sick in Richmond. We cannot
speak too highly of Mrs. Carroll's manage
ment of an affair that was pretty NEAR as
large as first-class hotel, nor OF the vallla-
BILE aid of her lady assistants A watch OF
gold costing $40 was voted during the fair
at 10 cents a vote to the most popular
young lady, but the ballot will not be
opened until to-day. During the fair sew
eral chromos were ratified. The receipts OF

BUY RIGHT AND MONEY is ALREADY
We buy our Goods ut Auction Houses, and
who has ever attended these auctions will notice
how prices fuctuate, and will mark the steady
downward tendency, sale after sale and day al

to real judges of good capital chances 10 under
quote the regular market by at least 20 to 35 per

retail, at less thsu the case price at the mill. I
An importer, hard up, will offer goods at cost
to raise money, but when note is due tomor-
row and money must be had he tumbles mis-
goods into the auction rooms where cost or no
cost, they must go. We buy them at nearly our
own price.
Money is a tip-top thing, but brains is the
master. We buy our goods CHEAP and our pro-
fits are already saved and made, giving US the
double advantage of selling at prices that must
crush the opposition, who will at once start the
cry that our goods are stolen, or that we are
about to fall getting up reputation Tor us,
without the expense of adyertsing-so by lu-
dicious management we may easily turn the
enemy's guns upon his retreatng line or put
him in harness upon double duty
To-day wooden mill stops, tomorrow their

TEMPERANCE LECTURE TUEIDAY
A1GHT.-The Temperance people putt n a
well-timed shot in advance of Chrisa mas
lollity by having a lecture Tuesday hight
from Rev. w. w. Green, the State Lee
turer Of the Friends of Temperance, who
WAS passing through the city. Mr.. Green,
who was introduced by ex-PreSident OF the
State Council, J. w. Newton, is 81 Epis-
copal minister. who took his present posi-
ton with the approval of Bishop Johns
and the advice of Rev. DR.. Woodbridge OF
Richmond and Rev. DR.. Dame of Danyllle.
He was rector, until he commenced this
mission, of church in Pittsylvania co.
His address was clothed in very elegant
language, with perhaps>not enough Of the
''hurrah" style which is generally adopted
by Temperance lecturers. His stock Of
anecdotes was small but very nice, and his
fitting on Of the story of ''The House that
Jack built to the subject of Temperance
was very clever indeed. During his lee
ture he said that years ago Bishop Meade
had said to him that nothing panied him
more than to see the people OF clergy with
hold their support from the cause Of Tenn
perance, which in his opinion was a work
sent by Heaven for the good Of men. The
speaker gave an encouraging account OF
the progress of the cause in the State. He
was lust from Mt. Crawford, where it was
especially 1ourishing. Tie ladies in va
rious parts of the State were giving active
countenance to it. In Pittsylvania coun-
tv, s'the reigning belle in society" had put
down her name as an associate member.
In Waynesboro a place noted for it's Tenn
perance proclivities, the ladies were &C
tive in their aid. He drew strong pic
tlre of the sinfulness OF celebrating Christ
mas, the birthday OF Jesus Christ, with
minds besotted or inflamed with liquor.
The audience, which in the commencement
of the lecture had been rather thin, was
made quite full before its close, and among
those present were Rev. J. [. Miller and
Rev. w. G. Hullihen. The number of la
dies was moi large, but from those that
were present it was apparent that the best
class of our people were interested i'll the
subject. In concluding his address, Mr..
Green asked for the prayers of those pres
ent. when gentleman sitting near the
door much affected said in Il loud voice,
''We ao1I pray for you' The exercises of
the evening, which had been opened with
prayer by MI. A. NJ. Simpson, 3 promi-
nent friend of Temperance, were concluded
with the benediction by Rev. j. l. Miller.
After the NEE ting adjourned, several per-
sons were initiated into the order in the
hall of the Friends of Temperance, where
the ddress was delivered.

A NEW AND NICE CONTEMPORARY
We have just received from the Deaf
Dumb, s. Blind Institute the first copy of
a neat four page journal called the "Good-
son Gazette" name originating from
the fact that the material and press on
which the printing was done were the re-
suit of bequest to the Institute by the
late Jne. F. Goodson of Norfolk. The
printer of the journal is Nh. William M.
Berkeley, and the price is $50 cents in adj
vance," We copy the following items
from the first issue:
4 second Laura Bridg11oan case.-A lit
tie boy, both blind and deaf-mute, living
in Isle of Wight county, is an applicant
for admission into the Institute. Cases of
persons thus doubly afflicted are rarely
heard of, and this is probably the first ap-
plication of the kind ever received here.
However absurd one may, at first glance,
imagine the attempt to educate child
whose mind can be reached neither through
the eye nor the ear, still the attempt be-
fore now has been made, and made sue
cessfully-LAURA BRIDGMAN, educated
at the Perkins Institution, may be cited
as case in point, and there are other SIM
iliar cases.
4 Wizard Aroumd-A few evenings ago
our wizard. MIR. AMOS HoLLAR, gave an
exhibition ia the girls study which
had been temporarily fitted up with stage,
curtain, and the other paraphernala used
by professors of the dark art. Mr.. H. is
decidedly skiful in his new role, and on
this occasion fully equaled the performan-
ces Of Wyman. The affair was a success,
and was greatly enjoyed by the pupils.
4 Deserving Artist. Sue 3. Ride
nour, graduate of the Institution, and
whose sweet voice many in this commune
ty we'll remember, gave concert in Wood
stock On the 18th inst. She is endeavor-
ing to raise funds to defray her expenses
at the Baltimore Eye and Ear Institute,
whittier she proposes to go in the hope of
having her sight at least partially restored.
Fund Retaua1ed. two years ago a
'sClerc Memorial Association" was form
cd in the Institution, and MI. Job Turner,
pupil at one time OF Laurent Clerc, was
made President, MI. VIM. M. Berkeley
being made Secretary and Treasurer. A
small fund was realized by subscription,
but because of the continued absence of
the President, was never forwarded to the
Monument Committee. The monument
having been erected and paid for, the
amount collected is in the Treasurer S
hands subject to the orders of the subscri-
bers.
At Work.-The force in the book-bindery
is engaged just now in binding the Report
for the last fiscal year.

DEPRESSION I'M THE MATRIMONIAL
MARKET.-The READERS of this journal
who have good memories will recollect
that last Christmas Our marriage column
contained twenty-five notices of matrimo-
NAL combinations. A glance at it's num-
bers to-day will sadd len the heart of every
lover Of his country The contraction in
the currency has produced contraction
in loving hearts, and many fellow who
hoped to see his name on the Roll of Honor
this Christmas will pe found still at the
foot of his class.

DEATH OF A WOMAN OVER A CENTURY
OLD.-About two weeks since, Mrs. Peggy
Hanger, living on her farm in Riyerheads
township, near the farm of MI. ]. 7.
Black, died at the age of one hundred and
ten years. She had lived in the same

band was merchant or peddler, and one
day about half a century ago started out

wards. 1t was believed at the time that
