The Road Bill For the County.

The Road Blll For the County.
Our delegates drafted new
Road Law for the County, which
was on last Thursday, on motion of
Mr.. Fowler placed on the calender
under suspension Of the rules.
1t is substantially the bill which
for the past two years has been
operative on the counties of Fau-
quier and Loudon. The defect
which experience in those coun'
ties has been suggested have been
made are copied in the new BILL
A board Of Road Commissioners
is provided for each of the seven
districts. This board levies the
taxes and annually settles with the
treasurer, who collects the tax as
other taxes are collected.
The Judge Of the County Court
appoints the Commissioner of
Roads, who gives bond in two to
five thousand dollars, and together
with the Supervisor selects one of
the District justices to complete
with them the said board. The
Commissioner OF Roads has charge
of the roads Of the district and
must inspect them twice a year,
and see that the overseers and cons
tractors perform their duty.
The Oversecrs are appointed for
the sub-road districts by the board,
but they must not exceed five for
any one district, and the number
may be less as the board shall dc,
termine.
The Commissioner and the Over,
seer for each sub-district must, at.
ter ten days notice, let publicly
the roads for three years to the
lowest bidder, in sections of two
miles or less. The contractor mus
give bond in not less than S25, apC
not more than double the value O
the contract, and all the able,
, bodied hands allotted to his section
must work two days in a year OF
pay the usual fine instead or fur,
nish a substitute. If any section
cannot be let at bid that is salts
factory, then the overseer mus
take charge Of it and work it. |
the Superintendent shall find tina
the contractor does not keep hi
section in order he must give hin
notice so to do, and upon his tail
ure to do so, have the same dor,
at his expense, to be recovered
with the costs in the name of tn,
board.
The Ovcrseers are to have 70
their services $3.50 per day, an,
the Commissioner of Roads 800
per day while actually engaged.
New Roads are to be opene,
and made at the expense Of tn
district, unless, in the opinion Q
the Court, they are of such gene
raj Importance that the count
should bear the expense. In al
cases the pay Of the viewers and c
the Surveyors is to be borne by tn
county. The funds necessary shal
be raised by a tax on propert
which shall not exceed seven and
lalf cents on each 500 OF assessc,
value.
The act is to take effect the frs
OF May, provided its passage is ct
tcctcd.

I-tIlOIlCt1 OF BILIOUS tCVer, &C., and indeed
oil the affections which arise from malari-
Gus, marsh, OF mlasmatic poisonS.
This is compound remedy, prepared with
scientific skill from vegetable ingredients. which
rarely fails to cure the scvCrcst cases of ChiIIa
ana Fever and the COncomitant disorders Such
n remedy the necessities of the people in mala-
nous districts demand. It's great superiority
over any other medicine undiscovered for the
cure OF lntennittcnts il, that it contains no Qui.
nine or mineral, and those who take it are free
| rom danger of quinism or any Injurious effects
and are as healthy after using it as before. II
has been extensively employed during the last
thirty years in the treatment Of these distressing
disorders, and so unvarying has been its success
that ithas gained the reputation of being inTal.
| lible. ltcan, therefore, be safely recommended
as a sure remedy and specific for the Fever and
Ague Of the West, and the CkiIls and Fever of
the South, 1t cOuntcracts the miasmatic poison
in the blood, and frees the system from its influ-
ence so that fever and ague, shakes or chills,
once broken up by it, do notrcturn until tho
disease is again contracted
The great variety of disorders which arise from
the irritation of this poison, such as Neuralgia.
rheumatism, GOut, Headache, Blindness,
toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asthma, Pal
pitatiOn, Splenic Affections, Mysteries, Pain
in the Bowels, Collie, Paralysis, and derange-
OF the stomach, all of which become intermit-
tent or periodical, have no speedier remedy than
AYERS AGUE CURE, which cures them all alike,
and protects the system from future attacks. As
a preventive, 1t is of immense service in those
communities where Fever and Ague prevails, as
1t stays the development of the disease if taken
onthe first approach Of the premOnitOry symp.
toms. Travellers and temporary residents are
thus enabled to defy these disorders, and few
will ever suffer if they avail themselves Of the
protection this remedy affords.
For Liver Complaints, arising from torpdty,
1t is an excellent remedy it stimulates this organ
into healthy activity, and produces many remark,
able cures where other medicines fail.

From the Richmond Whig.l
DOINGS AT THE CAPITAL


a very fierce struggle is going OH in
the Republican ranks in respect to the
Cabinet and the policy of the new
dynasty. 1t is generally conceded
that John Sherman is to be Secretary
of the Treasury, VIM. NJ Evarts Sec
rotary of Stale and McCrary, ofIowa,
for some position. Hale. of Maine,
has positively declined to be Secretary
of the Navy and Frye will probably
he taken in his stead. A powerful IN
tiuence has been brought to bear to
secure the retention of Don Cameron
as Secretary of War. He is backed up
by all the Republican members of
Congress from Pennsylvania, all the
Republican members of the Pennsyl-
vania Legislature, and every State
official of Pennsylvania.
There is a good deal of talk in refer
ence to the tender of Cabinet posi-
ton to Gen. Joseph +. Johnston, of
Virginia. The Virginia delegation
have no information of such a seize
ton. One Of Gen. Johnston's special
friends expresses the belief that if
such IA tender be made to Gen. John
ston it will be with the expectation
that he will not accept the appoint
uutHI' lHe OplulOu OF lDe ' lTBlnlh
members is that Gen. Johnston would
not accept such position if rendered.
The name of Hon John Hancock,
of Texas, has been used i'm the press
without any authority in reference to
Hayes Cabinet. | am informed by
Mr.. Hancock that no such offer has
been made to him. The use of Mr.
Lamar's name is equally without an
thority. All these publications are
the production of vulgar gossip. From
present indications there will be al
extra session. The House will stand
| firm on the army bill demanding a re
duction of force, and also provision,
forbidding the use of troops to uphold
either of the rival governments in
Louisiana and South Carolina.
Ii is believed the Senate will sacri-
flee the bill rather than consent
to such limitations Oh Radical
powers of mischief
The Democrats are not willing to
trust the lying propositions of Radi-
cal politicians in respect to the South
The proverb says that men who
lie will steal, and it is equally true
that those who steal will lie.

. Ed. WoRLD:-The inclemency Of the
weather during the past few weeks
produced many cases of mountain fe-
yer, which has proven fatal in two
cases-Frank Paynton and Robert
Clark, both young men. They were
highly esteemed by the community.
May their souls rest in peace. A

pack-train is down with the fever and
not expected to live. There is quite

the doctor informs me they are near
out of danger. Billy North and John
Duncan are up and doing we'll. If
this kind of weather continues for a
month longer we may look for a great
deal of sickness.
The mines are turning out their usu-
ally large quantities Of ore. The
Monarch company have completed
their l00-foot shaft and are running
east and west on the vein, having
some very rich ore in sight. The com,
pany have notices posted calling for
contractors to bid for the sinking OF a
working shaft two hundred feet from
the surface to connect with the lower
level. The Buffalo company are TAX,
ing out large quantities of milling
and shipping ores. Grading is being
done for the furnaces, which are to
be operating by the first of August
Mr.. Mahoney, the amalgamator, says
the Atlanta mines cannot be equalled
in the world.
