WINCHESTER AND VIc1N1rY.-Fromt the
Times We clip the following:
The nails used for the roofing of the Mar
ket street church were donated by W. Mason
Robinson, the popular hardware merchant.
Mr.. Q. w. Hensell has purchased the
Bowly property on Fort Hill-the residerce
OF the late Frank lin l}owly-for 81 500 cash.
and will occupy it.
The drug firm of Berry & Manning have
discontinued business. Mir. Manning has
gone to Texas. We have not learned what
MIR. Berry's intentions are, but accomplished
as he Is III bis profession, no is not likely to
be long out of business.
Mr.. Ad. Manning, who with Mr.. Frank
Castleman, recently departed for Texas, no.
ceived quite an ovation from his numerous
friends on the eve Of his departure. In fact
so enthusiastic were thoir demonstrations
that they kept him up oil night, ond the tes-
timonias he received in the way OF refresh
nents for his journey were amply sufficient
to last him until he reached his destination
even had he been devotee Of Bacchus-
which he isn't.
Gu Monday evening tho Winchester Light
Infantry, under command of Lieut.. j. A
Mutton, marched to the residence of Maj. h.
W. Hunter, to pay their respects to General
Gordon, under whom Captain Mutton aud
others of the company had served in the war.
Captain Mutton made ringing and eloquent
speech, to which General Gordon responded
in cordial heartfelt terms. Salutes @ero
then fired by company aud platoon. It was
very Interesting occasion.
From the Ne,os we copy the following:
On the speakers stand Monday were the
venerable Andrew Hunter, of Jefferson
county, and Hon. D. W. Voorhees,, who were
opposing counsel in the celebrated Cook trial
twenty years ago. The two gentlemen shook
hands cordially. The years have not dealt
SO lightly with Mr.. H unter as with the Seua-
tor, but the hearts of both are yet young in
the cause Of Democracy.
Mrs. MARIA j.. MoonE.-Many will be
panied at hearing that this excellent woman
is dead. Mrs. Moore was the daughter of
Mr.. Thomas Likens, deceased, aud the wife
OF our venerable and esteemed County Clerk,
Thomas ~. Moore, Esq Last Sunday morn>
ing, although feeling very unwell, Mrs.
Moore went to the Presbyterian Church, (of
which she had been au exemplary and devo,
ted member for nearly fifty years. but was
Obliged to leave the house during the ser.
vices. 10 few hours she became uncou-
sconcious from congestion of the brain, and
remained till death put termination to
her sutferings, and set her faithful spirit free
from sin and earth, on Wednesday night
