HAIL SToRM.-Wc learn that severe
hail storm visited portions of Nelson county
on Sunday last, and considerable damage
was done to the forward fruit, and, in some
instances, the dwellings. The new house OF
Mr.. Shepard, erected upon the site Of the
one burned a year ago. on the line of the
Virginia Midland Railroad, had all the glass
broken out of the windows. Stones as large
as a walnut fell, and it is reported that
chickens were killed by them.
In the western portion of Augusta county
the hail was heavy, but we have not heard
OF any injury further than knocking off the
forward cherries. The atmosphere on Mon
day and Tuesday was quite cool in this vici-
nifty, and but for the cloudy sky, we would
no doubt have had biting frost on Monday
and Tuesday nights.

VALUABLE PROPERTY IN MARKET
The sale of the Virginia Porcelain and Earth
enware property, Which is advertised for
May 25th by the Commissioners, Messrs. A..
Fl. Fl. Stuart and Jas. Bumgardner, jr., will
afford rare opportunity to enterprising
men. These works, during the short time
they were operated, gained wide celebrity,
the products of their manufacture finding a
ready sale, and being OF superior quality.
To men who would actively push the enter
prise, the most gratifying results are almost
assured, as the raw material abounds in great
quantities, the buildings and appliances for
manufacturing are first-class, and the de-
mand for the manufactured articles large
