TIE Atlanta Constitution gives
Barn1m some plain but goodadvice-
1t says:
There is not an interest in the
South that will not promptly pro-
test against the scheme that has
been mapped out. We want peace
and quiet, and it will be well for
Mr.. Barnum, or for the Northern
Democrats, for that matter, if they
presume to stand in the way of
these. We advise these leaders,
therefore, to give Over their foolish
project, and leave the country to
the people, to the enjoyment OF that
period of quiet which they have
Justly earned."

L THE DOGS OF
WAR.

To the northern democracy.
Dear gents:
Some of your organs are given t.
emitting violence in abbreviated par
agraphs, and thunder in double lead
ed lines; one of them declares thai
Hancock is elected il the ,democrac,
will .'stand FIRM
Will they please rise and answer
few interrogations?
Suppose the fraud in New York ii
proved, and congress declares Han
cock elected.
Suppos. Hayes transfers the gov
eminent to Garfield, backed by Grant
Sherman, the army and the republic
can party, and refuses to recognize
Hancock.
Dear gents: What do you propose
to do about it?
Will you fight!
If so, how many and to what ex-
tent?
Please take notice that j. Rel
does not propose to participate in the
scrimmage.
Wade Hampton will not lead thou
sands of Red Shirts" to e Han.
cock inaugurated.
Thouands of them would follow
Hampton to the internal regions
should he desire to raid that locality
and depose the republican supervi-
sor.
But they will not follow him to
Washington. They are too well sat
isfed with the union, and their pro-
gress in it.
Besides, we are busy raising an i'm
mense crop of children and cotton,
lust now, to manipulate guns.
!, We have had our share of fighting,
anyhow. Now proceed and get yours.
We will stand back this time, and
take our turn atmaking contracts.
Dear Gents, should you decide to

geous for the supply of cotton goods

To avoid complications, please let

Go in, dear gents, and strike fol
your rights.
The solid south will occupy the ia
miliar position of "war democrat"
Your principles are right and must
triumph.
You can always calculate on oul
moral influence, and moderate loans
at good interest secured by United
States bonds.
Freemen should spill their hearts

Go in brave boys: let your banners

an elevated neutrality and witness

Gar town schools are moving along

Constantly increasing in number and
growing in interest. His sister, Mary
Clemens, is assisting him.
But few of our teachers read school
journals. We look upon this as a
misfortune, for no teacher can we'll
afford to be without a good journal.

have come to town.
Mr.. 4. J. Gordon, the principal OF the
Locust Dale Academy, in Madison county,
died very suddenly Sunday morning week,
of disease of the heart, while attending
service at Crooked Ran Baptist Church.
He was a Christian gentleman and ripe
scholar and will be sadly missed IN the
section of State in which he lived.
A large wooden pulley bursted at the shops
ofthe Winchester Furnishing Company last
week. piece of which struck Mr. Harper
on the thigh tearing his clothes and tanning
him. Several of the workmen made mar
row escapes. To show the force with which
the pieces were hurled it is stated that one
of them broke wooden beam nine inches
square.
Mr.. Golightlv has sold his farm near the
Front ROYAL road about four miles from
Winchester. to gentlemen from Pennsylva-
mia. at Sll so Der acre The tract contains
some 800 acres. and is to be divided into
three farms. Mr.. Golightly has purchased
the Little MIL property, known as Parkins'
lower mill with l26 acres OF excellent
quality of slate land attached, for the sum
of $4,000.
Last "Wednesday morning at an early hour
the barn on the Brown place, adjoining
Kernstown. was destroyed by fire. Among

COW. s to 10 tons of hay, and Il stack OF

ing this land, and Mr.. John Capper and
family reside on the place. Supposed to
have been set on fire probably by tramps
who have been in the habit of entering barns
in the neighborhood and sleeping in them.
No insurance. Loss about 1900, Messrs
Capper being the principal losers.
From the Times:
Captain John Glaze is feeding nearly a
hundred hogs On his farm near Winchester
which will average at present, in the opinion
of good judges, about 27O pounds. They
will not be put on the market for several
weeks, when they will certainly be top

found in Virginia, where the day after the

on the dollar And a firm in CulPcper that
before the election made fruitle>> efforts TO
negotiate loan in Baltimore Immediately
after was notified it could borrow all the
money il had asked for and more. Thus
did Virginians az the polls ro-cs;abiish their
