The Festival at Ridgeway.

The Festival at Ridgeway on
Thursday night, for the benefit of the
Hampton Rifle Guard, was Il pro-
nounced success in every respect,
and, from all accounts that have
reached us, was q most enjoyable
affair. The shod attached to the
freight depot had been enclosed
with bagging, and through the
magic manipulation Of woman's
tender hands was converted into q
beautiful bowcr-likc pavilion, fes-
tooncd with evcrgreens, and bril-
liantly illuminated, thus presenting
picture that was delightfully."-
pleasing to the eye. AS one en-
tered this charming enclosure it
was hard to persuade ones self that
this was not fairy land, so dazzling
and enchanting was the tout enscua-
Die. The occasion was doubtless
1--WE hesitate SO to speak) rendered
especially pleasant by the presence
of our Cornet Band, to say nothing
of strong detachment of the
handsomest members of the Gordon
Light Infantry, all of whom sus~
tuned their long established repu-
tutation for highly cultivated
taste for both music and the
savory yiapds for which Rilgoway is
eminently distinguished. The
ladies Of the community f,irly out
did themselves in the superb ar
engagements that were eyerwhcre
visible. The young ladies particu-
larly we're SO bewitching, and so
solicitous about ones appetite, that
it was diff to do justice to the
"bill Of fare,' and it required more
effort than our reporter was capable
of exercising to eat three suppers,
although we have been informed
privately, and we beg our friends
not to speak Of it, that by dint Of
perseverance he managed to worry
down two.
We are glad to learn that the
marriageable members of the
WinnsboIo delegation swept every~
thing before them 1--WE do not refer
to the eatables) and that they
came out "irst best" in the numcr-
GUS Gbuires 0u ceur into which
they were enticed. At least this
is their testimony, but being will.
ing accomplices their evidence must
be corroboratod before we can
believe it.
No trust that the festival realized
a handsome sum for the Hampton
Rifle Guard and we can truly say
that if it did nothing else, it most
certainly afforded great deal Of
pleasure to the visitors from Winns-
sboro.

The above paragraph appears in sew
orsl of the State papers, and is generally
printed without comment. We think
that tae Commonwealth of West Virginia
has already quite enough upon her shout
ders, with,u. assuming q weight which
would crush an Atlas No State IN the
Union, however great may be her terri
tory, however immense her wealth and
her population, can afford to tolerate
within her borders nest OF brainless
vampires, who would gladly suck the
life blood of those who have fOstered and
fed them. There are some men among
those called Communists or Socialists
who, by the very heat OF their fierce
aud upgovernsblo passions, act SIS
frebraDds upon others who woald other
wise remain quiet aud pesceable. Among
the illiterste and unreasoning there are
hundreds Of men who, if they were al.
lowed to pursue their labor unmolested
by scoundrely demsgogues, would never
of their own suggestion become Com
~munists. They may grumblc at their
employers and say that they are Ill
treated and abused when they know that
they have no just ground for such state
ments, but it would never 90 any further.
Every man, no matter how quiet he may
ordinarily be, has within him a
smouldering spark of dlssa.Isfsc-
ton with his present lot, but if it
is not famed into q blaze and additional
fuel given to it from the outside, it will
continue to shoulder without doing any
damage. When men who dc 70! reason
quickly are brought in con;ac. with the
oilly-.onguad scamps, who desire to
arouse the sleeping devil, 70 further their
own ends, they are fascinated by the
false reasoning, the paste diamonds Of
speech, the rantipg and Incorporate ana
ihemlzing, which they hear, and when
the flame springs up jnsoa fierce uncon-
trolable power, it consumes not only the
objects OF this uniounded rage, but their
own powers of reasoning and Of distin-
gushing right from wrong. Where
