On Wednesday morning last Trinity
Episcopal Church was crowded with a
large and fashionable audience, including
a general turning out of the members of
the bar, to witness the marriage of Mr..
Jos. B. Woodward, the Deputy Clerk of
the County Court of Augusta, to Miss
Leila Beers, daughter of Mrs. Leila Beers
It would not be extravaganza praise to say
that Mr.. Woodward is one of the most
popular gentlemen, both in official and
private life, that the county has, and that
he deserves it all, and Of the bride we may
add that she is the graduate of the Virginia
Female Institute, of the session of ~,
WHO was awarded the Darlington watch,
prize given for pre-eminence in the good
qualities of both head and Municipalities
which have won her the esteem of all who
know her. The marriage service was per
formed by Rev. W. G. Huilihen, and at it's
conclusion the party took the Valley train
for Baltimore. The evidences of regard
sent them were numerous and handsome,
and one, a superb silver water set, in
Guiding, pitcher salver and three other
pieces, sent to the groom, was accompa-
MED by the following note:

SUDDEN DEATH OF A LADY VEL

SUDDEN DEATH OF A LADY WELL
KNOWN IN STAUNToN.-The Alexandria
''Gazette" has the following notice Of the
death of a lady who was, just at the close
of the war, .one of the most fascinating
members of Staunton society. Then, as
Miss Mary Helen Dan gerfeld, she had just
graduated at the Virginia Female Insti-
tute, and was in the morning of life, her
bright intellect and the charming graces
Of youth making her the centre of a throng
of admirers. She was first cousin of
Capt. VIM. II. Fowle, Of Staunton. The
"Gazette" says:
The entire community was shocked this morning
to hear of the sudden death, during the night, Of
Mrs Mary I'll. HOOe, wife of Capt p. b. HOOe, and
daughter of John B. Daingerfeld, Esq. Mrs. Hooe
was enjoying her usual health yesterday, attended
latves, and when she retired apparently as well
ever. During the night she was awakened by a
choking sensation which, increasing, induced her
to believe she was dying, and she so informed her
husband, and upon Wiping her mouth with hand
kerchef after clearing her throat of what her hs-
band supposed to be pnlegm, and finding it stained
with blood said she regretted leaving him and her
chlld-WhO was in the cOuntry-aSked to be famed
and then became unconscious. Capt. HOoe at once
summoned assistance and sent for Mrs. HOoe'S faith
only few steps distant, she a corpse. Mrs.Hooe
was well known and much respected for her many
good qualities OF mind and heart. Her husband, son
and parents have the heartfelt sympathy of the
Whole city IN their sudden bereavement The cause
Of Mrs. Hooes death supposed to have been heart
disease,

WHIPPING THE ENGLISH SPARRows
OUT.-That game and pugnacious little
fighter, the English sparrow, who has,
since his arrival in Augusta, turned his
attention from worms to taxing out the
other birds, has met his match in the jay
birds. These fellows over in the Lunatic
Asylum grounds, have whipped out the
sparrows, and won't let them build, or
even come on the grounds. The little
chaps took their defeat very hard, and
tried for long time before they gave it

Y. M. G. A.-The Y. M. G. A. at Green
vile is one of the most energetic organi-
cations of its kind in the State. 1t was
organized six months ago with seven men,
beTs, and now has eighty. 1t has never
failed to have it's regular meeting, though
many have to come from as far as eight
miles away; it has a nice beginning for a
library; has nicely fitted rooms; don't owe
dollar, and has paid six months rent
In advance. Its good influence in it's vi
entity is a matter of remark even by those
who have not interested themselves in it..
Last Sunday the meeting Of the Associa-
tion was let by Mr.. r. H. Palmer, and ad-
dresses were made by Messrs. Christian,
Blauth and Heller. Tomorrow it elects
delegates to the State Association Conven-
ton at Salem.
At the Staunton Y. M. c. A. Sunday af-
ternoon Mr.. VIM. G. Brown was the
leader.

TAXATION WORTH TALKING ABOUT.
Mr.. M. Erskine Miller, who owns a lot
assessed at 1862 in a town in Illinois, has
received his tax bill which is, for general
purposes $54, railroad tax sS.77-total &c.,
II. Those of our fellow laborers in Vir-
ginia who talk about high taxes will find
food for reflection in this item-especially
if they have been casting longing eyes
towards the West. Six dollars and half
on the hundred: while in Stanton we pay
only one dollar!

NICE AWNING.-NIr. W. f. Perry has
something new in the way Of an awning in
front Of his attractive Bazaar On Main st.
It is an idea of his own, the frame being
provided with iron knee-like joints which,
worked by cords and pulleys drop the avn
ing over the side walk Or fold it up nicely
out of the weather under the caves of the
building. The idea is a good one and
worthy of imitation.
