DECORATION AT STAUNTON.-The
decoration Of Confederate Soldiers
graves at Stanton, on last Friday at
tracted a large crowd Of visitors. Two
excursion trains from Winchester and
one from Harrlsonburg carried large
number of citizens and the military
companies of Winchester, Woodstock
and Harrisonburg and the Charlestown,
Strasburg, Woodstock and Harrison
burg bands. The military consisted OF
infantry companies from Winchester
Woodstock, Harrisonburg, Danville and
Stauntor and artillery from Lynchburg

formed on Main and Augusta Streets
and consisted Of the infantry battalion,
artillery companies, Fire and Hook and

On reaching the cemetery salute was
fred by the Augusta Artillery, and
volleys by each Of the infantry COM
panies, after which very eloquent and
impressive address VAS delivered by
Capt. Henry L. Hoover, of Staunton.
The President Of the Association, Col.

the ceremonies were closed with a
salute by the Artillery. The procession
was reformed and marched back to
Grange Hall on Main Street. The
companies marched to the several
hotels where dinners had been prepared
for them. The hospitality Of the citi-
zens of Stanton was most cordially
extended to citizens and military. The
visiting bands were entertained in the
most hospitablc manner by the Stone
wall Band.
The excursion trains under the charge
of Capt. Averill and conductors Fur,
Kemp, Dorsey, and Barley, were well
arranged, and every measure fol
the convenience and comfort Of
passengers was made.

The continued depression Of business

panic prevailing since 1873 by reason of
the infamous currency policy of our

Capt. II. II. Riddleberser if he will

We call now earnestly upon him to

to organize for him in every voting pre-

vest is lass approaching and from pres
ent prospects, it will be the largest and
heaviest that we have had since the
war, in fact, it will be the largest that
We have ever had. the wheat is filling
finely and promises large yield. Some
farmers estimate their crops at thirty
bushels per acre and many fields |
think will make it, few will yield less
than ten bushels.
The prospect OF low prices causes
many to grumbie, but we should be
very thankful that our crops will be
large and Wa will have a large surplus
to sell. We have plenty to eat and
an abundance Of everything except
currency which is very scarce, 1t is
amusing TO sec the sudden change that
will come over q mans countenance

Many will look as serious as il they had
received the news Of the death of a
near relative. l hope, from present
prospects, that after harvest currency
will be more plenty.
Mr.. John Woods, the experienced
bridge builder, is about completing a
very substantial bridge across the
North branch Of the Shenandoah, be-
tween the town Of New Market and
the depot, at a cost Of 1890, erected
by the New Market river bridge COM
pany, this being the third one built
since the war. Now the grea. incon-
vcnience whish was experienced by the
community IN not having bridge for
the last six months is about beng re-
lieved. \ bridge will be built the COM
inc fall about > or q miles lower down
the river at S. s. D. Neh's mill, en- the
road leading from the Valley pike TO
Forest Station on the railroad, for
which the county has appropriated an
amount not to exceed $1,000, which
amount will, in all probabilitl.b ccnsum-
ed. In anticipation vfthe large amount
of travel whichis expected to pass over
the road from Page county, or some
where else, think it advisable that
the County Court should have several
open roads leading from and to the
bridge.
Several miles below the site Of the
proposed bridge. Gen. 6. 5. Neon
expects to replace the enc that was
washed away last November, it beng a

SUDDEN DEAF Mr.. Il. {.
Hughes, very worthy citizen and well
known business man, Of this place, died
on the street, very suddenly last We'd
nesday. Mr.. Hughes had been suffer-
ing with consumption for some months.
He spent last winter in Florida and
thought that he had been much bene-
fitted. He returned home the latter
part of April. since which time he had
been actively engaged in selling agrl-
cultural machinery. He was at his
place of business until noon on last
Wednesday, when he started home tor
his dinner. He reached Mr.. Gill's
blacksmith shop and finding that he
was suffering frsm hemsrrhags he call
cd for salt and seated himself on a
wheelbarrow. He Immediately tainted
and expired in a very few minutes BY
hi, Sudden death the community has
lost an enterprlsing citizen, and his
family a kind and affecticnate husband
and father.
Fer some years he had been a conSis-
tent member the Presbyterian Church.
His body was inferred by the Masons
OF Cassia Lodge. Of which he was Il
faithful and Jealous member.
Capt. D. w. c. Jordan, of Mt. jack
son, died very suddenly at his residence
in that place. on last Saturday evening
His health had been quite delicate for a
year or tive. His disease was consump-
ton. He was alone in his room and
was about retiring for the night, when
he was heard to fall. His brother, DR..
Jordan, was immediately sent fer, but
before he reached the room, Capt. Jor-
dan had expired. 1t is supposed that
the exertion MADE in taking of his
clothes caused the hemorrhage which
was the immediate cause of his death.
Capt. Jordan was, during the war,
2 gallant officer of the 33d Virginia
Regiment Of Infantry. He was an ex-
cellent citizen and man OF sterling
integrity.

l noticed in s
recent issue OF the HERALD that the
Supt. Of Poor calls upon the Supervisors
for a "full investigation" Of matters at
the Parish under his charge, and COM
plains that some people of the good
town belo,c" seem to be concerned"
He adds: "These people may, and |
think do attend to their own business,
but they do not concedc the same to
me-"
Now it seems to me that he does not
realize the fact that he is only public
servant aud responsible TO the people
for his actions, 1, therefore, as citizen
and taxpayer the county, claim the
privilege Of inquiring into the business
of the parish at any time, because
have right to do so.
l do not think he ought to be sur
priscd at the peoples concern" for he
must knono that his bearing, where ne
moved about among the people has
been any but commendable. On
the contrary, the people have
been flled, again and again,
with indignation and disgust, and have
long since, considered it past fOrbear-
ance. In short, his conduct has been
such as would excite the concern" of
any who feel solictous of the welfare Of
the unfortunates under his charge. And
COW that there is a call for ''inyestlga-
ton" let it &c a full investigation. l
wish to do him the fullest justice, bat
he is a public servant and must be dealt
with as such, l am one among the
