The good people Of Tazewell Co. held
meeting on the 18th and unanimously
resolved TO subscribe $4s.250 to the stock
of this new Narrow Gauge r. r., which
is to run from Gloucester Point on Ches-
epeake Bay to the KY. line. Not dol
lar Is to be paid until the road reaches
the county. So the Tazewell people are
in no danger Of being vlctimized. No
people ever needed road more than
they, and none are more deserving Of

It, and that they may very soon be IN

The Wheat crop IN this section looks
more promising than It has for several
years, snd old farmers tell us there is at
least one-third more acres In wheat thnn
they have ever seen In tins part Of Scott.
We have had some cold nights recent

all killed, and if no further damage there
will be o suficiency for home consump>

THE negro James Black, was hanged
last Monday night near Petersburg VIZ
ginia, by body Of indignant lynchers,
for attempting to rape Mrs. Hattie
A. Ferris, Northern lady. Now st is
a little curious to see the Northern press
down on Virginia for this sort Of lynch
ing, when the spirit that prompted It
was not the protection of n Southern Ia
dy, but from yankeedom itself. If we
be Kuklux, It looks IS though we are a
little impartial in our Kukluxing.

ouR new Auditor MASSEY Ia doing
exrctly what we have long wished tosee
done. He Is giving tho State Its sup

servcd, all will DO plain sailing both now
and at tho judgement day. A man
should support his family reasonably
frst, and then devote his surplus TO his
creditors. A State should b. first sup
ported from the public revenues and the
surplus should DO cquitably apportioned
smorg ito creditors. Our Fundsr
friends are making mistake that nell
Their man nor God will endorse. They
are for paving commercial obligations

being not enough for both, they throw
tho doncit on tho moral. To be plain

Hor DAY FOR Polk CouNTY.-About
sunrise, May 4th, a desperate attempt was
made by Dave and Ed. Foster, and a man
named Gadshaw, to release their friend
Huey Price. They took the j~ailer's axe,
broke in the doors, and vent up stairs with
2 shout of triumph. The jailor and fam
lily raised the alarm, when Mr.. Hampton,
the sheriff with several other men, rushed
to the scene while a heavy fire was kept up
On them by the desperadoes from the Jail
windows. The Sheriff, with the guard,
reached the Jail unframed, entered, locked
the front door, and then let fall the trap
door on the second floor, imprisoning the
entire band in the third story of the build
ing: By this time some twenty citizens,
well armed, had surrounded the Jail, and q
compromise was soon effected, by an uncon-
ditional surrender of the would-be Jail de-
hverers, the whole party being now in Jail
under heavy guard.
Later.-Since writing the above, We learn
that two of the prisoners have broke iail
and made good their escape.-Asheville

tanned relative to the two leading candidate
for the Gubernatoria nomination. We
have some here for his consideration. tt ey
were not tabulated by US but by one who
has kept up a close scrutiny of the politics
Of the various conventions. We believe
his figures to be correct. They show that
Judge Fswle is a long ways rhead of Gov.
Jarvis. There is one county. however,
about which we are induced to make a re-
mark, and that is Fender. The sentiment
Of her people, we are informed by a prom
inent citizen of that county, is undoubtedly
for Judge Fewle, as expressed at the Con

to attend the State Convention, and
those, it would seem, are individually for
Jarvis. Here is the list as compiled by
