HOME AGAIN.-The party OF ''v. F. T.
girls who returned from trip,t the Natural
Bridge and Lexington on Saturday last, bring
news of slots of fun" and the evidences are
from presumptions aggregated, that in add
ton TO the Tombs of the immortal Lee anl
Jackson, the girls found unexpected pleasures
awaiting them, and saw more curiosities at the
'Athens" than at the Bridge. They. at least
confne themselves to Lexington and refrain
from expatiating very extensively upon the
| ''Natural Curiosity Satisfied that it ''yet
srands''--in its origin unexplicable- reply
| to inquiries that scientist get speculate and
savants explore, and if any of the profound
conjectures are matured into satisfactory re.
suits they are locked up in geological techni
calities, to the girls inaccessible, and therefore
they think they ought to be--we think they
are-eXcnsable. However, they seem to be
thoroughly conversant with all technicalities
pertaining to the ''W. & L. w. and the "v

likewise were their numerous atten lions anl
kindnesses.
Such number of patriotic students as the
ssV. T. l." now has There is not one of the
party who does not doubly realize Virginia
the mother Of Presidents and they eyince
such love for her soil that even the 'Butler'
girls say they will take him from the shelf an.

The Lexington Gazette speaks of their so.
journ in the ''classic precincts" thusly:
Lexington boys were out en- masse on We'd
nesday evening last, to receive in becoming
style the delegation Of S.aunton girls. en- route
to the Natural Bridge. The party, about twen-
tv in number, stopped at the Virginia Military
Institute before coming mp town. 1t is said the
| soldiers behaved handsomely and fought well
as they always do. The Institute is still in DOS
session Of the boys in gray, and the beseiging
party escaped without the loss of a single pris-
oner.
AT Pitman's, the bandsomest young gentle
men from the Washington and Lee Uni
yersity were on guard with Il strong skirm-
Ssh line, which was soon driven in, and the
whole body ingloriously defeated, in fact it was
a route. The Institute Band was sent for, and
a strong reinforcement of cadets having ar
rived, by a little ruse, the party was captured.
| Every girl in the party suddenly discovered a
| long lost b1o.her, and the reconciliation was
perfect.
Pltman removed the furniture from the large
dining room and his spacious parlors were
open to our fair visitors and their admirers
On Thursday morning every one had desire te
go to the Natural Bridge, and they went, anC

RoBBERY.-On Tuesday night last, about
twelve O'Clock, while Waterman Hamilton was
going his rounds, he visited the rear entrance
to Mr.. J. E. Graham's grocery store, on Main
street, and pushing against the door, discover
ed that some one was inside resisting. He
called out, ''Who's THEREOF and voice from the
inside responded, ''Mr. Graham" Hamilton
knew that the voice was not that of Mr.. Ora
ham, and said, s'Come out here, waDt to see
you.'' The reply was, II can't get out, the
door is locked.'' Finding that he could not eff
feet an entrance, Hamilton cried for help, and
rim up on an adjacent back porch, from which
he could see the rogue if he attempted to escape
from any of the windows, there being three
one on each side and one in the rear. Whilst
standing there, he heard thud in the vicinity
of the back window, and saw man jump over
the fence. He fired at him three times, but it
is presumed missed him, as no traces OF blood
could be discovered.
At the entrance was found about half bag
Of coffee, several boxes of cigars and some ba-
con, which the rogue had set on the outside OF
the door, preparatory to his departure. The
money drawer was robbed of from So to S. in
currency.
The supposition of Mr.. Graham is that the
man was concealed among the goods in the
evening and was locked in. He made his ex-
it by taking out the sash of the window, which
was fastened on the inside.
A coored boy named Isaac Graves was arrest
ed on Wednesday morning, charged with the
robbery, and after hearing, before Justice
Cease, was sent on to await the action Of the
grand jury.
