STANTON AND THE VALLEY RAILROAD
The City Council of Stauuton, last week,
ordered that city bonds in payment of the
municipal subscription to the stock of the Val
ley Railroad Company be delivered to the
company. This is a reversal of the action of
the Council the week previous, when it re.
fused to pay its subscription. Baltimore has
already paid over million of dollars to the
corporation, and the Baltimore and Ohio Rail
road has paid a similar amount.

attracted the attention of Geo. HuIium
who lives near by, and be came run

Lewis with gun in hand said to him as

done He still advanced on Lewir,
who gave back some distance, and as
the negro was abou. to close with him
