JUNE "a, 1884,
Editors Dispatch, This charming wa.
tcring.plsce Is rapidly filing up, and there
are daily arrivals and engagements. The
indications are that II will be filed by the
LIST proximo. The fare here Is excellent. the
management unexccptionable, and nothing
IL left undone for the comfort OF visitors.
Richmond, Chatham, Norfolk, Danyille,
Lyuchburg, Baltimore, New Hampshire,
Tennessee, and Louisiana are represented /;
and there is universal feeling Of satisfac-
ton among the guests. The first grand ball
OF the season takes place here on The eve
ming OF the 9th OF July. and on the after.
noon OF that date the Fourth--ihe glorious
Fourth--will be appropriately celebrated on
both sides-that Is, the glories OF the repub-
Tic and the advantages Of Old England will
each have boom from selected speakers.
This county votes on subscription TO the
Richmond and Southwestern railroad on the
Sd Of July, and the intelligent opinion is
that II will carry. The finest portion Of
Bedford Qhe south side) is utterly without
railway facilities, while the north side has
two lines OF communication yet Southside
Bedford constitutes two thirds OF the county
In wealth and population.
Crops here are promising. The wheat and
grass are harvested and yield fair average.
The oat crop needs only one more rain TO
insure its good yield, while the corn Is look
ing well, but also would be improved by
rain. The area in tobacco Is reduced.
The Cincinnati ticket Ia deemed strong
one-probably az strong as the Democracy
could present. "SAKo."
