WHALE BONES IN STAuNTON.-At the

bones of large whale which were brought
from the East Indies. They give one a

Jonah.
The two ribs are l8 feet long and 26
inches around the spinal end and the lar
gest of the two backbone pieces measure
q feet to the end of the spinous projection
and l foot across the round part where the
spinal marrow was. Through that hole a
man can put bis arm. The four bones.
though we'll seasoned, we Ugh $50 pounds.
The smaller bones of tie fish which
weighed several tons were ground up to
make the Baugb's Raw Bone preparation,

Pinkerton are agents and in which they
have so successfully sold in Philadelphia
for several years past.

ANOTHER NEW ENTERPRsE.-A few
days ago, several freight cars marked
through to Stanton, from Ashtabula,
Ohio, were unloadeG at the B. & o. depot
The loading consisted of ten mules, six
long brightly painted spring wagons with
buggy tops and the machine work of $50
fan mills.
This is the beginning of a new enterprise
Nn Stanton. Mr.. L. M Crosby, of Ash
,ts1,ula, has an extensive factory at that
lplace, and has for several years been en-
gagged in the manufacture of the Grader
wheat fan. He has operated extensively in
the West, manufacturing and selling
thousands of these machines and has been
recently attracted to the rich grain section
OF the Valley of Virginia, which he pro-
poses to operate in from this point as head
quarters.
The machine work is done at the Ashta-
buia factory and shipped to this place
where the rest OF the wood work will be
done and the mills put up and painted.
The work is already going On in the large
frame building west Of the C. u 0. depot,
recently occupied as An armCry by the
staunton Artillery. and is superintended
by the son of the proprietor, Mr.. L.. H.
COSBY, a clever gentleman, with the char
acteristic energy of those Western business
men. His present force consists of twelve
men, two of whom are Ohio workmeh.
and a painter. and three carpenters
from Staunton. Six men will be
constantly upon the road with the
wagons, each of which carries three of the
fans finished and ready for work, and they
will be taken right to the door of every
farmer in the Valley who may need first
class fan. when it will be put into salts
factory operation before the agent leaves
the udemises.
The wheat growers of the Valley have
long felt the need Of a fan that could
thoroughly cleanse their wheat for seed,
taking out every grain Of cookie, cheat and
oats. This is what Mr.. Crosby claims for
his fan, and the work new fan just put
up in the shop here, did in the presence Of
our reporter fully supported the claim.

Waynesboro. The scene Was laid at the
!, Presbyterian church, and the witnesses
fully up to the capacity of the building
To say that the bride was beautiful and the
groom very handsome, would be almost
too commonplace. The ceremony took
place at O'Clock Monday evening and
was performed III very impressive man-
ner by the Rev. Frank McCutchan. The
The popularity of the bride as measured
by the aggregate of presents, indicated
that her friends were not local-testimo-

hand-many of them of intrinsic value,
all in exquisite taste and hymenial in sag
gestion. TIE city of Baltimore is their de-
stined future home.

rassment attendant upon the formation of
new relations. He will meet cordial re-
eeption. The retiring minister goes to
Broadway, Rockingham county.
Rev. John Reed, of the Methodist
church. (colored,) gives place to Rev. Jno
Bailey. Mr.. Reed had greatly endeared
himself to his charge by his untlrng
efforts to build up the church, and through
his agency, largely, handsome new

ready to receive his successor. A petition
numerously signed, not only by colored
but by prominents white citizens, for his

The Fire Fiend Enters from City
Creek Gulcli.

Deadwood, Jan. s.-The escape of
Deadwood from being totaB destroyed
by fire second time, this morning, was
most miraculous. About midnight
the timber ON the hillsides in Shoe
maker gulch, caught fire froma miners
torch, and famed by high wind.
spread through that gulch. into Black
tail, over the divide. into City creek,
and forest Hill, inside the city limits,
where, by the superhuman efforts of
the firemen and citizens, it was got
under control, with the loss of only a
few cabins and some cordwood. The
wind blew almost hurricane, and did
considerable damage in different parts
of the city. All stores were cleared of
goods, and had the fire reached the
heart of the city, it could have destroyed
little else but the empty buildings.
The widest excitement prevailed
throughout the night.

who has been held as prisoner at
Iquique since June last has been re-
cieyed on board the United States

a close prisoner by order of the presi-
dent of Peru.
The circumstances connected with
the release of Gordon are reported by
the commander of the Alaska as fol-
lows:
Learning that he was almost in a
state of starvation, called on Col.
Rias, commandeS-of the city, for the
purpose of requesting permission to
send a supply of provisions to the
prison for the use of Gordon. To my
great surprise Col Rias said / could
bring the prisoner on board of this
vessel. accepted the proposition, and
Gordon was delivered to me by Col.
