gineer Waters, of the Fire Department,

Taylor's, on Main ST., was from ire-cyack-
ers, and one from smoking meat. Ateight
of these alarms the Hook and Ladder co.
was in use, and at thirteen of them the
Engine co. was in use. The total loss in
property was $42 800. At one of the fires,
that at Paul Mlx's, $50 worth of window
glass was broken by unknown hands, The
Chief Engineer calls the attention Of the
Council to the imperfect state of the shell
ter of the hook and ladder apparatus, and
the fact that the members Of the company

REMARKS.

We have to report a dull market all
round; farmers will persist, al Il great
sacrafice, i'll marketing their grain in very
bad order. We would say here that not
less than 20 per cent. is often clear loss
to many farmers when they offer and sell
their grain in damp condition. We
would urge them to dry it, by all means,
before selling. Better prices are looked
for, as the English crop is certainly short,
and the Mark Lane Express" (which is
the best English authority states that
large importations of wheat will have to
be made in that country to cover the de-
ticiency at home, There is a probability
of good shipping demand later in the
season.

medicine before the people that has given such

will not be without it. All look upon it as a
blessing in time of affection, AM children who
can but lisp its name call for it when they are
suffering with aches and pains. They have the
evidence Of hundreds of our best citizens, who
claim for it as family medicine that it has no
equal, and we advise all who are suffering from
Neuralgia, Rheumatism, or aches and pains of
any kind to try it, as it will surely give imme-

those who have used it in cases of Bruises,
Sprains, Sore Throat, &c. 1t is a home medi-

City Council, with all the mem hers pres
ent except Gen. Echols, went, on motion
Of Mr.. Evans, irto the election of Mayor
of the city to fill the place Of Hon. N. X.

w. Burke to postpone the election until
the opinion Of the City Attorney could be
obtained about the next election by the
people was oyerruled, Mr.. Hoge saying it
was important mayor should be elected
ar once, as there were 'ssome city bonds to
sign" Messrs. Chas. Grattan and r. W.
Burke were the only votes against going
into an election. Mr.. p. B. Hoge then
nominated Mr.. r. G.. Bickle, at present
acting Mayor by virtue Of his office Of Pre-
sident of the Council, and Mr.. II. W.
Burke nominated Mr.. Chas. Grattan, at
present member of the Council. The
vote was then taken and resulted as fol-

Neither Messrs. Bickle nor Grattan took
part in the vote, both leaving their seats
ut the board, the former stating that he
did so because he understood he was to be
voted for. After the vote was announced,
Mr.. Bickle said he thanked the Council
heartily, and would endeavor to discharge
the duties Of his Office without fear, favor
or affection.
The Council then elected Mr.. Jno. b.
Evans to the office of it's President by
majority of 3 over Mr.. VIM Kayser, who
was nominated by Mr.. Evans.
: The new Mayor will enter at once upon his
duties. He is perhaps as well known as any
citizen of Staunton, and is retired mer-
chant of great wealth, and about 60 years
of age. He was Democrat up to the Pre-
sidential election OF 1872, when he espoused
the cause of Grant, and has been promi

since. His competitor, Mr.. Grattan, is a
prominent member of the bar and former
member of the legislature. He is a pro-
minent Conservative and active member
of the party.
