Tho Yellow Fever.


The terrible scourge which is affecting
our neighbors in the South calls loudly
for compassion, and the papers are full OF
the accounts of the terrible needs of the
sufferers, and the noble charities of the
tender hearted. And while other cities
are giving, let US in Austin not be behind.
1t has been decided to hold concert
whose proceeds shall 50 to the suffering
South. Miss NJ. G. Pearson, lately of
Brownsville, has kindly consented to take
charge of it, and she has labored so ZEAL
ously, and has been so promtly seconded
by our ladies that she IS able to announce
that concert by our best local talent, in
both instrumental and vocal music, will
be given at Jones' Hail, Friday night,
Sept. 30, at 8 O'Clock. The proceeds will

On Tuesday evening the Odd Fellows
gathered in their spacious hall for the
purpose of enjoying social entertain
II, ent, provided for them by their wives
and lady friends. 1t consisted OF an adj
dress, supper, music and conversation
and it proved to be in all respects one Of
the most agreeable occasions ever enjoyed
in this city. The address by Rev. J. W
Eldridge, was exceedingly felicitous and
evoked cordial commenda ton from all
The repast was sumptuous, and embraced
all the delicacies of the season. 1t was
embelllshed with rare flowers, the ricl
perfume of which lent increased pleasure
to the sense Of taste.

seemed in excellent humor, and the brie
intervals, or rather interruptions, in thu
conversation, were occupied BY singing
and exercise in the tcrpsichorean art, thu
embracing all in continued round o
pleasure.
1t is known that the Odd Fellows are
benevolent organization, but the extent
their benetactions is not generally known
In little more than half century til
sum of their contributions exceeds $25
100000. In harmony with the principle
of the order, at the preliminary meetin'
held en- Tuesday evening, liberal don
ton was voted to sufferers by yello
fever
While many contributed much to tn
success and pleasure of the entertainment
it is no more than just to say that II
chief credit belongs to Mrs. Hon. r.

WHAT IS TO BIZ DoNss-Do our
citizens propose to abandon the road to
Seven Fountains or are they going to
secure to the people Of the Fort good
road? 1t is to their interest to trade
with this place and the only obstacle in
the way is the miserable road on this
side Of the mountain. A merchant OF
the Fort informs US that it costs double
to ship produce by the way Of Water
lick, and the road to that point Is al
most as bad as that TO Woodstock. This
road under the judicious management
of the road master has been greatly i'm
proved but at several points the grades
are so steep that it is impossible to haul
full load.

STEAM MILL.-A number Of our far
ners are discussing the question as to
the practicability Of building steam
flour mill in Woodstock. 1t would
prove a great convenience and there
would be no difficulty in securing sui.
table location. a sufficient amount o.
stock 10 build the mill could be easily
obtained. The question, we believe
has been fully discussed by many par
ties who arc interested in the subject.
Prompt action in the matter will secure
success in very short time. We were
requested to notice this subject some
weeks ago, but it was unintentiOnally
postponed.

graduate of the school for the blind in
the d. d. & B. /. at Stanton, and By
her own efforts supports herself and an
invalid mother aud sister. Miss Carder
is one of the most agreeable companions
IN the family circle and is eminently
qualified to give abundant satisfaction
as a teaener of music. Any one giving
her a situation will get value received

ofthis Valley are developed these two

IMPORTANT TO FIsHERMEN.-Wc
are informed by citizens living in the
lower end of this county that mill dam
has been erected in Warren county.
near the Shenandoah line Of such
character that fish cannot possibly get
up the stream. 1t is known as Kenncr's
dam. The authorities in Shenandoah
cannot reach the party except through
Warren county officials. 1t is hoped
that the proper action may be promptly
taken by the Common Tealth's Attor-
ney for Warren county, so that the
North branch OF the Shenandoah may
not be cut of from her supply OF fish.
Parties near Strasburg 90 below this
dam to fish and catch fine strings OF bass
