ANNIvERSARY OF THE BATTLE OF
NEW MARKETING Ladies' Memorial
Association of New Market, have invi-
ted Gen. John Echols to deliver the adj
dross Of the anniversary Of the battle of
New Market, which takes place on the
18th of May. The appropriateness Of
the selection is added to by the fact,
that Gen. E. was personal friend of
the dead hero and statesman, John &.
Breckenridge, who commanded on the
field, and himself held an important
command in the action. 1t will be re-
membered that it was at this engage
ment that the cadet battalion Of the
Virginia Military Institute were sent
into action, and there, though mere
boys, made a name as good soldiers.
The cadets, the 10th Virginia regiment,
Rice's battery, the cavalry who were
engaged. and all the Confederate sur
viYors of that victorious day, will be in
yited to participate IN the celebration OF
what was one Of the most remarkable
battles Of the war-a little band Of 5000
men defeating Sigel's of $4,000 men.

Local Notices.

TOTHosE Who WERE SUBSCRIBERS
FOR THE DEMOCRAT. The publishing
company of the DEMOCRAT have a
large number of small bills for sub
scription and job work which they pro-
pose to send out for collection. Their
intention is not to harrass any of their
old patrons, but merely to put the bills
where it will be convenient to pay them
any time within the present year.
If their friends will reccollect that these
little sums aggregate large amount,
and represent seven years of hard labor
they feel sure of an earnest effort to
pay them within reasonable time.
The bills will be sent to each township
with instructions to give good time for
payment and also to correct any mis-
takes that may exist. Every endeavor
has been made to keep the numerous
accounts correctly, but it Is not to be
hoped that some mistakes have not oc-
CURED in such large number of names.
1t is earnestly hoped these accounts
will be promptly settled, and that all
our old friends will continue their
patronage of the consolidated paper,
which we are trying to make first class
IN every respect. At,

Music TEACHING.-AIiss Virginia
Carter, who has just completed her ar
engagements as music teacher at Edin-
burg, is DESTROYS Of securing situation
in some family if possible. She gives
instructions on the piano, organ, guitar
and several other instruments. She is
a graduate ofthe school for the blind in
the D. D. & B. I. at Staunton, and
by her own effort supports herself and
an invalid mother and sister. Miss
Carter is one of the most agreeable
companions in the family circle and is
eininently qualified to give abundant
satisfaction as a teacher of music. Any
one giving her situation will get value
received besides aiding a deserving and
unfortunate blind girl in her laudable
effort at supporting herself and family.

Having concluded to place myself be-
fore YOU as a candidate for Common
wealth's Attorney, feel it incumbent
on me to say to many friends to whom
I have given negative answers when
approached on the subject hitherto, that
there has been a combination Of circum-
stances tending to induce this action on
my part. The Office is one for which the
compensation is very inadequate to the
labor usually required to be performed,
but still it is not to be despised by one
in such humble circumstances as myself.
Two years ago I resolved upon the
practice of law to which 1 had previous
" gwen some attention and study. My
efforts in this brief period have been so
warmly seconded as to raise the hope Of
public confidence in my qualifications
for the Commonwealth Attorney ship.
l believe I may, with becoming diff
dence, say that I feel can make my
self competent to discharge the duties
Of the position. At any rate, I may
promise that, as the peoples attorney,
I should endeavor at all times to exer-
else the amenities due from the public
servant and to discharge such duties as
might devolve upon me without fear
favor or affection.
Very Respectfully

will also sell my dwelling which con-
tains four rooms and Summer Kitchen
