A. W. HYArT.-It is difficult for those unac-
qua nted with the true merits OF artistic typog-
raphy and skillful binding to accurately judge of
the merits of piece Of work which, to the unm.
itiated, appears excellent, because connoisseur
readily appreciates the true merits of delicate
ecution, and only can understand what is de-
serving honorable mention. We have had occa-
sion to carefully examine many carefully-exe-
cuted works Of stationers here, but We can safely
say none have approached, in neatness of style,
beauty Of finch, and elegance Of ornament, sew
eral specimens exhibited by our old friend, Col.
A. w. Hyatt.
His extensive establishment, furnished with
every modern improvement in photographic art,
offers to those who have occasion to require
skilled workmen, an opportunity to display their
taste, a. every specimen issued from this estab-
lishment sttests Col. Hyatt has spared no
pains to make his house second to none in the
South, and the success Of his efforts has been
evidenced by daily increasing popularity. From
the blank book of the co.ton-salesman to the
costly ledger Of the banker or factor, Mr.. Hyatt
has on hand q selection seldom seen in our CITY.
and to those who desire first-class workmanship.

CROSBY TURNED OVER TO AMEs.-At5 O'Clock
last evening, Peter Crosby, the late sheriff Of
Warren county, was sent by special train to Jack
son. where he was to be turned over to his dear
friend, Gov. Ames. This action of our people,
the sending OF Crosby unframed to his friend,
the Governor, is sufficient refutation of the
ISLANDERS uttered by Gov. Ames, in his proclama-
tons, and in his lying telegram to the New York
Herald. Crosby was captured on Monday morn
ing the 7th inst, when he rode into the city after
leading band Of armed brigands here to kill
and burn, in pursuance Of his programme agreed
upon by himself and AIMEE.
After ten days Imprisonment, during which he
was thoroughly protected, our people have sent
him safely to Jackson, where Ames can take
Peter to his bosom and rejoice over his escape
from the rebellious Phi!istines of Vicksburg.
We regret to see that some of our citizens are
disposed to condemn the release of Crosby from
prison. We are glad to say that VIC heartily ap-
prove Of this release. For several days We have
personally urged it, and we rejoice that Crosby
is this morning enjoying the companionship OF
Ames. The people Of vicksburg can point to
ton of their action. For ourself, We have no
fears Of the vagabond. He will never bother
Warren county with his presence again V'icls-

A singular Case.
hGFor the Dispatch.

! For the Dispatch
About nine years ago Mr.. Julius Condry
of Chesterfield, Va, was shot at the battle O
Hatcher's Run, near Petersburg. The Dali
striking him behind the left ear, entered or
the lower edge of the mastoid process, and
passing in front of the cervical verte0rB de-
tached eight small pieces OF bone; then glanc'
ing to the left, passed through The faucial re
gion Tor upper part of the throat and behind
the right tonsil gland, and lodged under the
lower jaw-bone near the submaXillary gland
producing tumor which could be both
seen and felt externally.
Recently, from some cause unknown TO the
writer, but traceable, perhaps, to some oc
cult power Of the rlS medtcGtrsr nature e&
erted in order to get rid Of extraneeus mat
ter, the ball commenced retracing its course
by pressure on the side Of the more yielding
tissue, thereby causing nlceratiyeabsorption
and soon appeared behind the right tonsl
gland, whence it was easily dislodsed.
The suppuration attending this retrograoe
movement Of the ball caused mucn 1ncon.
yenieuce to the sufferer, but that disappeared
after the foreign body was removed. Inc
most permanent injury Inflicted by it Is the
loss of tlezile and rotary movements OF the
head. He cannot look behind him without
turning bis body. What is exceedingly re-
msrkable in this case, and gives it so muct
interest, Is that so large and rough missile
az an eight-ounce Nine ball should plough
throu gh such vital parts, decorating and con
tuSing the fieshy structures, knocking tc
pieces the bones of the neck, producing com
minuted fractures, Wounding and ipjurlns
perhaps the very aris upon which the era
mum rests and turns, and that he shoult
then survive such terrible shock to thu
animal economy. 81. ID.

Mr.. CARPENTER, yesterday, brought I'D n'S
hill in the Senate for rightinS thiuss ~
Louisiana. We have very little hope that IL
will pass. The Administration has Played
mysterious game in the Louisiana tronoles'
MORTON, no doubt, speaks for it now IN OPP
nosipg a new election. General GRANT did
say that they must unload; and then II was
said that General GRANT was going to send
q message to Congress about Louisiana. AT
first it was Inferred that this message would
throw of the Louisiana load. But it soon
leaked ont that it would oppose new elec'
ton; and lastly, it was positively stated
that 10 message at ali would be sent. 80
we conclude that General GRANT, after
" rising te,explain." determined not 10 eH.
plain, aud sat down. MoRToN's subsequent
onslaught, upon MoESERY and bis support
of the KeLLoea government leave no room
for doubt that the Admins ration has de-
not to throw of the Louisiana
load of denominations, but will bear them
still. We are not greatly surprised. Gene
raj GRANT, to use his own phrase, very much
gets "twisted up" sometimes.

Iron Orc and Iron Fever-The

CORRESPONDENCE OF the RICHMOND D1spatcH'J
PROSPECT. Va, February 9, 1874.


PROSPECT, VA, February 9, 1874.
Some excitement exists In this nelghbor.
hood on account of the recent discovery OF
iron ore ia various places. Investigations
are going on in Buckingham at Woods
mountain, and on this side Of the Appomat-
tox river at points near the southside rail-
road. Very rich specimens OF iron rock are
found near Tuggle's tank, and near Prospect
dep0t, The veins run neatly north ana
south. Those in the vicinity Of Tuggles
tank are supposed to run 10 the direction OF
WILLIS mountain, where 1t is known that
much iron exists, and the other vein seems
to pass through Woods mountain IN the
direction of the der0t. Some OF the ore IS
strongly magnetic, causing the compass
needle 10 make rapid revolutions upon It's
axis, while other specimens do not anect
the needle so much, but evidently bear un-
mistakable signs Of being almost pure IRON
In anticipation of better times coming,
lands have advanced considerably in value
Nearly everybody has caught the iron FEVER,
and It Is no rare thing to see man with DIS
rocket full of rocks. It is to be hoped that
the investigations now going on will de,
yelos the hidden treasures of the earth and
add to the prosperity of the people.
We shall soon have society OF GfanSers
at Prospect dep0-. Many turner's are
anxious to join. At our last Prince EDWARD
court, in Farmyile, there were people o.
influence from Prince Edward, Cumoer
land, and Buckingham inquirlng where tht
Grangers were, saying they wanted to Jolr
them. Let the ball roll on. HE.

TO which Judge THURMAN maze 'n's o'e''

,,I ,sk nv friend to put this INTO his

Under the supervision OF the Contfoi'er VI
he Currency cannot be heid 10 tahG IL ous
of the clause of bankrupt law that haa no
existence for three years alterwara. Iour
BANKRUPT law is the last legislative express
sion on the subject. The bankrupt law was
passed three years after the nationai'pank'
ing law; and this law, passed three years
after the bank-law was enacted, declares IN
plain words that every moneyed ana every
business corporation Of this land shall De
subject to its provisions. Sir, there Is no.
thing in the country that Will perhaps DC
found more efficient in milking the corpora,
tons OF this country-railroads. banks, anu
business corporations OF all kinds--periolm
their duties and discharge them well than
the existence of bankrupt law, tnat, Wmiie
it is not oppressive, shall yet be Efficient.
During the debate, he also said
"I cannot give up my own judgment of
words as plain as these The provisions OF
this act shall apply to all moneyed. business,
or commercial corporations sAll moneyed,
that is one class; business is another; 'or
commercial corporations ;; and joint-stock
companies If bank is not moneyed cor
poration, I do not know what 1t is II II Is
not business corporation, do not kno"
what it is"
Congress will probably so alter the bank
rupt Law as to leave this important point no
longer In doubt.

The Senate appears to be earnestly con

disposed to hope that Congress will mature
bankrupt law with view to its perma

thing it considers that we have almost
ceased to hope for the maturing of any de
cided measure for the public good. 1t i:
ouly jealous and efficient upon schemes fol
party purposes, and for the qualification o

Mara Enterprise Wanted.

friend reminds us Of remark made By
this paper upon the occasion OF the compile
t;on Of the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad,
which he pronounces strictly true. 1t was
that the people of Richmond could make OF
that road what they pleased. Indeed, it was
and is true. The road is through, and ready
to serve them. Freights are not coming TO
this city unlimited, unassisted. People here
must provide freights through their business
intercourse with the West. They must do
this before the freights will come.
There is certainly one man land we trust
there will be many more) who has not only
The sagacity to see how Richmond may use
the road, but the administrative tact and the
enterprise to put his ideas into active real
iEation. This gentleman has started the
business of moving freights Of particular
kind, and we believe this beginning will GO
on increasing until we shall have something
TO boast of in the matter of our western
trade in produce.
We repest that the people of Richmond
may make the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad
whatever they choose it shall be to them
Indeed, they may encounter obstacles more
or less serious, but good judgment and per.
severance will triumph over them. It Is
nonsense to say that Notwithstanding We
have a road to the West we can derive nc
great advantage from it. That is no talk fol
a live and shrewd people. We know thai
Richmond can both talk and do better. We
fear that there Is yet feeling of paralysis
such as chicken feels after going long
journey in basket with his feet tied-a
doubt as to whether the limbs are free
which causes an indispositiou TO step out.
It would not be surprising, so long have
the hopes Of our people been deferred
But it is time they were getting as.
sured that they are free-free to the
West, free. to the Southland that they emily
have to determine, to act, and to succeed
They have now opened to them vast area
OF country which they could not reach
twelve months ago. They caa command
wheat, tobacco, and general produce from
The West, and cotton from the South. They
have, indeed, an added field for their com.
MERGE greater than that. they commanded
two years since. Have they made it ayaila-
bleS II they have not, we submit that 1t Is
time that they were cultiyating il. It's rich,
and all the enterprise they may devote to it
will meet with rich reward.
