DEATH OF AN EsTIMABLE LADY.-On
Sunday evening last, at the residence Of her
husband, Mr.. Phillip Liggett, near Harri-
sonburg, Mrs. Ann Liggett breathed her
last. aged 65 years. She had been i'll for a
week or ten days from an attack Of pneu
monia, but no serious apprehensions were
entertained until Saturday last, when sud.
den change in her condition indicated a
speedy dissolution. The writer OF this no.
tice had known her from his earliest recol-
lection, and was bound to her by kindred
and sympathetic ties, which acquainted him
with her nobility of soul, gentleness of dis
position, and Christian virtues. Few per-
sons have borne the trials and sorrows of life
with more fortitude, and met the duties
and responsibilities Of wife, mother and
friend, with fuller comprehension of their
import. Her gentle spirit passed from earth
calmly and swsetly, her last words being a
tender appeal to her sorrowing children not
to grieve for her, as she was ''going to her
rest" If life OF patient endurance, warm,
earnest affection, and unaffected charity is
type of that which Is to come, those WHO
are left to mourn her death mag rest satisfied
in the assurance of her blissful Immortality
Tha funeral ceremonies took place at the
Episcopal Church in IIarrisonburg on Tues
! day evening last, Rev. Mr.. Barr officiating
and reading the funeral service OF that de
nomination. Her remains were followed
to Woodblne cemetery BY q large conconrst
\ of friends and relatives.

ON \ srR1KE.-some days eco Mr. Jacob.


ON A STRIKE.-S days ego Mr.. Jacob
Hamilton living near Fishersvllle, employed
a number of colored men to cut cord wood
for him, agreeing to pay S5ets. per cord. 1t
seems that these men belonged to a kind Of
choppers union" and after working a day
or two, they were visited by some twenty Of
their fellows, who demanded that they dis
continue their labors at tho price paid. This
the choppers at first refused to do, but were
finally heightened into acquiescence and
made complaint to Mr.. Hamilton. On Tues
day, Mr.. II. had some twenty Of the obstruc-
tors arrested and brought before Justice
Lickliter, who after hearing the case, bound
them over to keep the peace in the sum OF
$50 each and required them to pay the costs.
Mr.. Tucker, the counsel, signitied his inten-
ton OF taking the case to the County Court.

Roanoke County's Railroad Subscription.

Roanoke Countys Railroad subscription.
The Salem Register Of the 3lst publishes
the action of the Supervisors Of Roanoke,
in reference to the subscription of that County
to the cap ital stock of the Valley Railroad.
After ado pting the following resolutions,
regulating the subscription, appropriation
of 81, 200 was made to pay the expenses of
counsel in resisting the payment of said cub
scrptior, and Mr.. j. Allen Watts selected
for that purpose. The resolutions read:
"Whereas the County of Roanoke hereto
fore subscribed the sum of two hundred
thousand dollars to the capital stock OF the
Valley Railroad Company; and whereas
said Road has not been completed. and is
not under contract for its completion, the
Board of Supervisors OF said County OF Roa-
noke, two-thrds OF all the members elected
to said Board voting in the affirmative, doth
order that the subscription OF two hundred
thousand dollars heretofore made by the
County Of Roanoke to the Capital Stock OF
| the Valley Rlilroad Company be, and the
same hereby is, revoked.
"By this proceeding the Boari OF Super
visors of the County Of Roanoke intends to
exercise, and does exercise, the power con-
| fer red on it by an Act of the General As
| sembly of Virginia, approved March 20, 1873,
entitled IAN Act to authorize the revocation
| of subscriptions to the Valley Railroad Com
pany, and the transfer of the same on GER
tain conditions;' and also all and every
other power and right it has, or can lawfully
exercise, for the purpose Of diseharging and
releasing the County OF Roanoke from any
and all obligation or liability on account oil
said subscription, by said County, OF Two
hundred thousand dollars to the Capital
Stock of the Valley Railroad Company.
''This proceeding is not to be construed as
an admission chat said subscription is. or mas
ever, been, valid and bindng-the validity
of the same having been denied by certain
Taxpayers OF the County Of Roanoke, ane
being now contested and litigated IN sun
between sale Taxpayers and said Valley
Railroad Company and others-and the Cd
ject of this Board being to relieve, discharge
and protect the County OF Roanoke IRON
and againstall and every liability. or claim
under or by reason of said subscription
whether the same was, or was NOT, valid ant
binding"
