unoccupied frame tobacco factories of little
value, in rear of the warehouse, We're also
DESTROYED. The fire also spread to and con-
sumed wooden structure just below The
warehouse on Bridge street, occupied by
Philip Bear, pop manufacturer. A three
story brick building on the corner, adjoining
the warehouse, occupied by Hancock & Jen-

stock of groceries will probably reach $4,000 ;
partly insured. The fire was undoubtedly
the work of an incendiary.

BsRRYviLhE, Va, October II, 1874.
On Monday the 18th instant there was an
uuprecedeptedly large assemblage OF this
place. the object being to nominate cand-
date for the office Of clerk ofthe County, and
Circuit Courts of Clarke The present in
eumbent of the Office, George Glass, Esq !,
has occupied the position either as principal
or deputy for niue years. John III. Gibson,
Esq, his opponent, has been the supervisor
OF Greenway township. in this county, ever
since the division of the county into town
ships. These gentlemen are both highly
esteemed in the county. the number of per-:
sons present Gu Monday showing conclu-,
sivcly that their friends are neither few nor.
Indifferent. Each has \ G. foernan worthy Of
OF the others STEEL" Contests for offices in
this county are always spirited. Questions
Of grave interest are discussed in connection
Herewith. The candidate must define his
position in every particular, from the Grange
movement down to tax on fox-scalps.
AS both candidates are supporters of Gene
raj Hunton for Congress, and IN every other
respect good Conservatives, 1t was thought
ineypcdient to make a nomination. Both
gentlemen are "wise in their generation"
10 not supporting Mr.. Barbour. They think
Mr.. Barbour is very worthy gentleman.
but regard It selfish in the district at this
time to desire to deprive Culreper of bis
presence. Glass and Gibson, both continu-
ing candidates, will bring out the largest vote
the county can afford, and in that way Hun.
tons vote will be largely increased.
There was s'tilt" between Hunton and
Barbour OH Thursday at the courthouse.
Mr.. Barbour was completely demolished.
General Hunton tells an anecdote with
marked effect, and his large audience was
often conyul>ed with laughter.
II the election had come off at that moment
think, as matter Of sympathy, should
have voted for Mr.. Barbour. The feeling
for him was then certainly intense, but that
has gradually subsidized, and General Hunton
will get the vote Of nearly every white man
in the county. Ihearda worthy old gentleman
say that before Hunton's speech he had the
dyspepsia very badly. but had not been trou-
bled with il since. 1t is understood that both
Of Off village druggists will vote against
Hunton for spelling the sale Of their patent
compounds for the speedy cure of dyspeptics.
There was one gentleman in the audience,
doctor from Fauquier, who has an especial
spite against the General, 1t seems, attributa-
bic. doubtless, to the fact that Hunton has
cured all of the dyspeptics in said doctors

MIXED Schools in the South.

New YORK. October 19.-The Committee
of the Peabody Fund Trustees. consisting
of w. n. Eyarts, John Ii. Clifford, and
Samuel Wetmore, appointed to consider the
subject of mixed schools in the South, re-
port that, after the most careful comparison
of opinions and the most solicitous considera-
ton of all the elements Of the discussion
affecting the interests of education in the
various States for their white and colored
population, they have unanimously come to
the conclusion that the prospects and hopes
of the public system of education at the
South will receive a serious, if not fatal,
blow from any legislation which should
make such system Of education malntainable
only on scheme Of mixed schools. AS to
the organization required for such public
education, the Board are of the opinion
that while justice and public duty as well as
the interests and feelings of the white and
colored people of the South concur in de.
handing system of public education which
should give equal opportunities and equal
advantages to the children of either color
no such result would be promoted by
the compulsory system of mixed schools.
The committee, in conclusion, say these
views are fully set forth in the report oil the
general agent, which is accepted and APP
proved as expressing the unanimous OPINION
Of the trustees.

Correspondence OF lne hlcnInOnu
DUBLIN, Va, October 10, 1874.
The fourth annual exhibition OF the Pu.
laski County Agricultural and Mechanical
Association opened Yesterday and closed to-
day. The entries of stock were very good
for a county fair, but in all other depart
ments the exhibition was failure. The
display of Short-horn cattle was equal to
that of other years. Fairs are becoming too
numerous to be good. Every county now
is trying TO have an association, and it
amounts in the end to disgusting the ma
jorIty. Let us have fewer of them and bet
ter.
Yesterday a serious accident happened to
one of our CITIZENSHIP. William Guthrie.
As his team we're returning from the Fair
Grounds they took fright, and the reins
broke in the drivers hands while he was at
tempting to check them. The Wagon was
overturned, throwing out those riding in it,
and breaking the left arm Of Mr.. Guthrie be-
low the shoulder and otherwise injuring
him. Prompt medical attention was render
ed, and he is doing as well as can be ex-
pected. being an old man.
The most of our farmers are done seeding
their wheat. Not large crop sown. The
corn crop is fine one in this and all adjoin-
ing counties.
Yesterday and this morning we were WIS.,
tied with heavy froSts, which have cut down
vegetation considerably. 1t is rarely that
frost keeps away as long as this in our noun
tain climate.
Politics are not causing much excitement.
Terry will no doubt win over all the others

Another correspondent writes:
Yesterday Hon. Thomas Whitehead, Of
Nelson, delivered fine address. He handled
agricultural matters with skill unusual in
politicians. His speech abounded in good
hits and wel-made points.
