A BEAR ATTACKS A PASSENGER
TRAIN.-We learn from a passenger
on Sundays down train that as the
Virginia and Tennessee passenger
train was coming through q cnt in
Peat Creek mountain, on Saturday.
a huge black bear was overtaken on
the track. The usual precautionary
signals of danger were sounded by
the engineer, but instead Of profting
by them as dumb brutes usually do,
and switching from the main track,
bruin planted himself in the attitude
usual to his tribe when determined
TO do or die, and patiently awaited a
tussle with the iron horse. The con-
fict was exceedingly brief--a mass
or manglcd flesh and bones, weigh
ing 465 pounds, was gathered up as
a trophy, and the iron horse snorted
from the battle ground.

THE DAILY LYNCHBURG REPUBLI-
CAN'T has long been a matter of
surprise to us how a town of the
population of Lynchburg could sus-
tain so many first class daily papers.
1t has three that are second to those
of no city in the South in point of
editorial ability and newspaper en-
terprise. The Republican, was always
our favorite, and is a paper we can
commend to any of our friends who
desire daily from that, to so many
of our readers, important section of
the State. The price of the Daily
has recently been reduced to FIVE
dollars, placing it within the reach
of every man who desires it for its
daily market reports, or for it's able
editorials and interesting collation. of

us on their daily list for speaking

PERsoNAL.-We had the pleasure
of a call, last Saturday, from our
handsome young friend, Col. John
w. Paulett, general agent for Ten
nessee, for the series of school books
published by J. HI. Butler & Co., of
Philadelphia. We congratulate that
firm that they have so worthy and
efficient a gentleman to represent
them and the excellent books they
issue, before the teachers of our
State.

this Spy establishment is assuming
an extent of editorial girth that in
dicates an adoption of Grants war
policy. We want to see our town
populated. but then we don't want
to depopulate as old town as Jones'
boro' to secure it. There's no one
left there now but DR.. Pressnell-and
we look for him this week. How

pop of you ]
We learn that our friend and late
first floor neighbor. DIR. Coulter. con-
templates removing from our town
to Warrensburg, for the purpose of
resuming the practice of his profess
sion in that neighborhood. We re-
greet that our town loses so good a
citizen and excellent physician as the
DR.. is recognized to be, but in these
times Of money panic and general
good health, removal is matter that
physicians have olook at from their
own stand point, just as the rest of
us. Wherever. the DR.. goes we COM
mend him to the people, and wish
him the prosperity that his skill and
kind heart so richly merits.

sought for by medical men, but never before dis~

them DO not become pale and euseiated, bat oh
