LIME Ono OF the finest exhibits Of tho pro-

dents, are some salnples Of wood burned lime
trcm her lofty hills, which are shown in the
Virginia Mineral Annox. This is probably TIE
most perfectly available lime that is shown any,
where, snd It's excellence is q great credit to the

located ut the confluence Of the North and South
branches II tbs Shenandoah river, where the
valley OF tho same name has meeting OF waters

from lIO 10 loU feet from the rivers bank, which
suggested lime burning TO its owner, Mr.. Sam
GcI Carson, who in 1858 commenced in small
way, when 1t was discovered that al article Of
very superior quality WAS produced. Soon after
MI Carson purchased u right from Mr.. i. u.
HoliElann, OF Berlin, Prussia, to use ono of his
pstent kilns. AS soon MS the lime made in this
Kiln found its way to the larger markets Jealous

equal this limo will do more worl; for the
