LIGHTNING RODS.
STAUNTON
LIGHTNING ROD WORKS.
MUNSON'S TUBULAR
COPPER LIGHTNING ROD.
With SDi ral Flauges.

This Celebrated Lightning Conductor, owing
to the material Of W hlchs 1t is made, and the
manner of Its construction, is the most com
ever in vented. This Is conclusively shown by
a practical test of over twenty-fOur yearSydur-
ing which time II has been in constant use, be-
Ing erected upon many thousands of private
and public buildings, in all sections of the
country and although there have fallen upon
charges of electricity, yet in no instance has 1t
failed to conduct them harmlessly to the earth,
thus saving many lives, and property of almost
incalculable value.
~ 1t has never been Overcharsed!
HdrI 1t has never Failed!
The experience of one hundred years has
shown that where all the necessary rules are
observed protection is perfect.
AT the present day no one will deny the ne
cessity and duty resting upon US to vacc.nate
our children, and thus protect them from the
fearful ravages OF small pox; in fact. can there
be found In any community an intelligent man
who will not acknowledge an imperative duty
resting upon every one to not only use means,
but the very best means of protection to them
and theirs againstal dangers arising from any
source whatever. A few dollars Jud1c1Ously
expended in lightning rods will securely pro-
tect all the buildings that almost any one pos
sesses, and if life or property Is sacrihced In
consequence of neglecting such protection, can
we hold ourselves blameless, will not the dead
cry out of the ground against US? VIII not the
The feeling alone that a man has done all in
his power to make his family and property
fe from the destructive effects of lightning is
worth far more than the cost of all the light
ming rods necessary to secure such protection.
Persons wishing their property and lives pro-
tected from this destructive element, will re-
ceiva prompt attention by calling at our Store,

AN
POET II Y


From the New York Sum-.
THE BLUE AND THE GRAY FOR HANCOCK.
From the fiowery groves of the Southland
And the fields of cotton and csne.
To the wonderful lakes of the Ntrthland
To the pine-clad hills of Maine,
Brave men are dwelling by thousar os,
Who once were hot to slay,
When some wore the blue of the Union.
And others Confederate gray.
The passions Of war have subsided,
Its hatreds have gone with the past,
And now, like an army of brothers,
They all come together at last.
They follow man who in battle
Was bravest among the brave,
And who, whenithe fighting was ended, a
Was first to console and save.
With him are his war-tried soldiers,
And those that he faced In the fray;
The men who wore blue are for Hancock,
With those who have worn the gray.
For peace and perfect union,
For brotherhood over the land,
They are forming shonld er to shoulder.
And are marching hand In hand
Now, "Down with all thoughts of disunion |!
Say those who have worn the gray,
away with all sectional feeling!"
The blue-coated veterans say.
They rally for peace and for union,
And who shall dare say them nay?
They rally in blue for Hancock,
For Hancock they rally in gray.

SALEM, July 17.-Roanoke county as
you well know is strong for readjust-
ment, having given that party over 500
majority last November. I do not, how
ever, think that the new, So called Han
cock and English electoral ticket has
many friends in it. Yesterday 1 heard
the sheriffof the county, who is prom
inent and leading Readjuster, and as
well acquainted with the people as any
man in the county, having been sheriff
for nine years, say that he had only met
one white Readjuster that was going to
vote for the ticket placed in the field by
Mahone's convention. The name of
that one was given. and while he is cer-
tainly most estimable gentleman yet
he has a son who has been making
speeches in favor of the election of Gar
field and Arthur, and who at the June
court told the colored people In speech
that they ought to stick by the Repub-
lican ticket, as they had been slighted
by Readjusters; and that they well
knew that the Readjuster party would
stand no more chance, to use his own
expression, "than bob-t tailed bull in
fly time," without the aid of the Re-
publicans. Whereupon, to satisfy them,
Mr.. e. w. Barksdale, at the present
time a United States deputy marshal,
and Republican, and as strong Gar
field and Arthur man as any in the
State, was sent as a delegate to the 7th-
of-July convention, and went there and
took part in its proceedings.
L don't think any such Radical dodge
as the placing in the field of So called
Hancock and English electoral ticket to
draw off votes from the regular one will
fool many of the Democratic Readjust
ers of Roanoke.

The First Prayer In Congress.

In Thdtcher's Military Journal, under
date of Decemer, 1777, is found note
containing the identical "first prayer
in Congress, made by the Rev. Jacob
Duohe, gentleman of great eloquence.
Here it is-a historical curiosity
. Lord, our Heavenly Father, high
and mighty King of kings, and Lord of
lords, who dost from Thy throne behold
all the dwellers of the earth, and reign
est with power supreme and uncon-
trolled over all the kingdoms, empires,
and governments, look down in mercy,
we beseech Thee, on the American
States, who have fled to Thee from the
rod of the oppressors, and thrown them
selves on Thy gracious protection, de-
string to be henceforth dependent only
on Thee. To Thee they have appealed
for the righteousness of their cause to
Thee do they now look up for that coun
tenance and support which Thou alone
canst give, Take them, therefore,
Heavenly Father, unto Thy nurturing
care. Give them wisdom in council and
valor in the field. Defeat the malicious
designs of our adversaries; convince
them of the unrighteousness of their
course, and if they still persist in san
culinary purposes, oh! let the voice of
Thine own unerring justice, sounding
in their hearts, constrain them to drop
the weapons of war from their unnerved
hands in the day of battle. Be thou
present, o God of wisdom, and direct
the councils of this honorable assembly.
Enable them to settle things on the best
and surest foundations, that the scenes
of blood may be speedily closed, and Or
der, harmony, and peace may be effect
ually restored, and truth and justice, re-
ligion and piety prevail and flourish
among Thy people. Preserve the health
of their bodies and the vIgor of their
minds; shower down upon them and
the millions they here represent. such
temporal blessings as Thou seest expedi-
ent for them in this world, and crown
with everlasting glory in the world to
come. All this we ask in the name and
through the merits of Jesus Christ, Thy
Son, our Saviour. Amen.

Among the Delegates who attended
the recent convention of Readjusters in
Richmond was r. F. Mays, county
judge of Botetourt and a Radical of the
most odious type This man Mays was
also delegate to the Republican con-
vention that assembled in Staunton last
April, and as such stands pledged to
support Garfield and Arthur This ap-
parent game of fast and loose is not to
be construed as an instance of inconsis.
tency on the part of Mays and his Radi-
cal associates in the Readjuster conven-
ton, for we do not know of any means
by which he could more effectually as
sist the Radicals in carrying Virginia
for Garfield and Arthur than by giving
aid and comfort to the desperate men
who are following the lead of Malone,
Massey & Co., and whose sole aim seems
to be the defeat of the Democratic party
in Virginia. Are the Conservative
Democrats of Botetourt going to vote for

ROANOKE.
The biggest lie which the Malone r
adiustarc u oep in circulqtiOn ia that thu

The biggest lie which the Malone re-
adjusters keep in circulation is, that they
have large majority of the conserva-
tive and white vote of Virginia. They
had a majority in the last legislature by
the aid of the negro and radical vote,
and without that aid they would not
have elected Gen. Malone to the Senate,
nor could they have passed their so-
called readjuster bill, nor could they
have done anything. But an over
whelming majority of the conservative
white people of the State belong to the
regular democratic party of the State
and country. and will vote for the Han
cock and English electoral ticket as
printed at the head of this newspaper at
the November election. If the Malone
followers had had the majority of the
conservative vote of the State, of course
they would have sent delegation to
Cincinnati and helped nominate our
Presidential ticket. and they would send
delegates to our Congressional district
conventions and nominate readjuster
candidates for Congress. But they are
in hopeless and factious minority, as
they well know, and therefore they
have been afraid to participate in our
conventions from the fear of defeat

"Gen. Hancock represents in his his

above all, he is man who, though q

who does not:forget his oath, even when
