Public Meeting.

At meeting of the people held at New Hope

timent which prevails, touching the projected
route of the Shenandoah Valley Railroad, on mo-
ton Mt. Isaac 8. Myers was called to the chair
and David Beard, Esq. appointed secretary Mr..

of the Directors Of the =. V. R. R. touching the
route they may adopt through East Augusta
That we respectfully represent to that honor.
able body. that the people of this populous com.
munity with a unanimity almost unqualified, are
pleted via New Hope, and seeing that it may be
averred that personal considerations influence
their action, they present still, potent consid-
eratiOns, the following facts:
4 1t Is several miles nearer from Port Republic
ola New Hope to Fishersville than the former
place to Waynesboro. with road bed infinitely
better and grade, it is assumed, quite as good.
That If the idea be to make the s. " R. R. a
mineral route, it were better to seect-as between
Waynesboro' and Staunton-the latter (seeing the
distance is no greater) for the reason that the
city is contiguous to coal and iron fields, about
the inexbaustible supplies of which there can be
question, while these interests in paying guam
titles, upon the mountain route are based upon
the merest supposition.
That if the Waynesb0ro' route be taken, no
freight OF consequence-1n the nature OF the
case-can be expected from that locality south of
the road and but minimum from the west,
That we do not hesitate to state that the people
along either Of the routes we suggest to Staun-
ton or Fishersville, will be eminently liberal in
the matter Of damages.
On motion it was resolved that the Secretary be
requested to furnish copy Of these proceedings
to The Staunton newspapers for publication, and
to Henry B. Harnsberger, Esq, with the request
that he present them to the approaching meeting
of the Board of Directors OF the s. " R. r. Co.
On motion, the meeting adjourned.

The Thespians.-Last Thursday, the
Thespians, fully costumed for the occasion,
wore very gloomy countenance, lest the en-.
tire performances of the evening would be
unattended, on account of the rain that
seemed to pour down in torrents, making
the roads almost impossible. Yet notwith.
standing the inclemency Of the weather,
quite good audience gathered, though not
half what was expected by the troupe, and
consequently their rea!izations were not as
great as might otherwise have been. The
performances lasted for some time. The au-
dience seemed fully repaid for their muddy
ride. The first on programme was the Lady
of Lyons, Mr.. G. F. Gibson taking the part
of the hero and Master Geo. Loyal the he
roire, and all acquitted themselves very
creditably indeed. Then followed an Eth
opian farce entitled Uncle jeff which was
also well performed. After that Pat Malloy'
and 'Phinagin's wake were sung by Mr..
Gibson, which the audience enjoyed very
much. The exercises then closed with the

Exports. Through the kindness of Mr..

the last year, 10S car loads of hay, 2,105
barrels of lime, and % car loads OF wheat,
or about 1000 bushels, besides a quantity
Of other cereals and apples and various kinds
of fruit.
The FtshersUille lime has acquired quite
reputation throughout the State, and the
'tink' of the sledge and drill can be heard
at most all times upon the hill below the
depot, where it seems that the whole hill is
one solid mass Of lime stone. Mr.. Rock is
attending to the affairs Of Mr.. Lara, and the
smoke from the lime kiln can be seen con.
stantly rising.
Person0t.-We were very sorry to bid fare
well to one Of our young men, who will be
missed from almost every circle: Mr.. G. r.

to the closing of Court House Alley, the At

charter the city had the right to close the
alley. The eXpediency of such a step was
not passed upon by the Attorney, and the
matter was referred back to the Committee
Tile Nev Fire Co.-Considerable interest
was manifested in the question of recogniz-

ROCKINGHAM COURT DAY.-Last Mon
day was bright, beautiful day-iust such
a day as invites the rural population from
their homes and from business to the coun-
ty-seat on court occasions. Farm work not
being pressing, a very large throng OF peo-
pie assembled in Harrisonburg on Monday
last. The courtsquare was literally jammed
with living beings the auctioneers, as usual
were active and busy, and a very large mum.
Der OF horses found ready sale at improved
prices.
Judge O'Ferrall opened the County Colrt,
and after swearing in Judge Robert john
ston, adjourned until the March term. This
course was adopted by mutual understand
ing. SO as not to confuse the business OF the
people. There is no doubt of the legality
of all the proceedings Of the Co urt under
Judge O'Ferrall, until the hour Judge john
ston took the oath Of Office. After that no
other proceedings were had, because the
disputed point as to which OF the judges,
the incumbent after the 1st OF January,
1880, or thu newly elected Judge, should pre-.
side, is now before the Supreme Court OF
the State.
While con sulting about the matter, Judge
Johnston asked Judge O'Ferrall what be
would do should he, Johnston, order the
Sheriff to arrest him. The latter replied in
genuine Yankee style, by asking Johnston
what he would d., should the Sheriff be or.
dered to arrest and iniprison him for con-
tempt OF court? Without satisfactory an
swer from either, the amieable method of
adjusting the conflict, a. stated above, was
adopted. This showed the good sense
and good feeling OF both OF the judges
and saved the people from unnecessary
excitement and confusion in their bust
ness.
The ladies of the Presbyterian and Meth
odist churches had prepared each public
dinner which was partaken of literally by
the friends of the respective denominations.
The people generally seemed to be in live.
ly spirits, aid looked and spoke as il the
cheering business indications Of the country
were operating upon them. Politics. State
and National, were freely discussed. The
Re-adjusters were in high feather,as to State
affairs, and the Republicans equally conf
dent as to national affairs. The Malone
electoral ticket was freely discussed, and
many Re, adjusters declared they would not
support it, while others declared they would
follow Malone wherever he would lead.
Altogether, Harrisonburg presented an
animated scene last Monday, without any
disorderly conduct apparent.
