RoY's LETTER.

1t would probably be OF some inter
est to your many readers to know
something Of the past history Of Bill
Rogus. Bill stands ont prominently
as a writer, as a married man and as q
father. We happen to know thing
or two about his past life, and pro-
pose to give his many friends and adj
mirers the benefit of that knowledge
George Augustus Christopher Column
bus Ferdinand William Rogus, was
ushered into this unfrirndly world at
precisely 2 o'clock. on tho Bird day of
April, 1873, and will DO 1U2 years old
next grass. He was very vicious
baby, came into the world bowling
and has been hard at it ever since
The old maids and DANES Of the
neighborhood all gathcrcdsm on this
memorable occasion, and various were
the predictions made as to HE future.
The danes said that he wonld proba-
bly, go to Congress, but the maids,
older and wiser than tho others, said
that possibly he would make good
engineer on a freight train, or d.'iy.
or OF canal boat. Bills fare while
a baby. was principally bone soup and
his big toe, but as ho grew toward
boyhood ho naturally took to persin,'
mons and acorns, so the boys soor
dubbed him "mast fed Bill" and tn,
acorns haven't worked out yet.
There was one bad trait in Bill
character, and that was he wouldn'
work. Old mau Rogus would talk I,
him kindly, and would gently knocl
him down to convince him more forci
bly,. but Still Bill didn't take tn
hint. One hot July day as Bill wa

man came in she spoke as follows

strangeish loik. but he'd go lestwise
at emmy rate" so old man Rogns
hitched up the steers aud they started.
And it camo to pass that Bill had
gotten as far as "baker" when some
thing happened to turn the whole tide
Of his life. 1t was this way: Al.
Clark was bachelor then and a
greater wag than now. His chief de-
light was to "suck in greenuns 7"
There was to be a party at old man
Rogus's, 70 Bill and AL. went togs-
ther. AL. introduced Bill as HIS
friend Colonel Dooliitlc, OF Cincinnati.
Bill scratched his head, llitched up his
breeches, and drawlcd out, "most tar

for it was the veritable ''shc," bowed
tothc floor and simpered out. "same

and it soon ended. for in 40 days and

the subject. BilI--'I wants yer

And shy OF tho sex rs We found him,

Though OF cake aud wine partaking:
We elscorted him hous from the scene Of

MINISTER CALLED.-The Bapti.t congre-

Eaton Of Petersburg, to the pastoral charge
Of their Church in this city. DR.. Eaton is
one OF the ablest ministers in the South
man Of power, learning and eloquence and
Q minister who measures up to the high
standard II his calling.
On Sunday night last. DR.. Manly preach
ed bis farewell sermon to one of the largest
audiences ever assembled In Stanton. The
church was densely crowded, every seat be
ing packed and every foot of room occupied.
Even In the recess behind the pulpit,
seats were placed for the accommodation of
OF the auditors, and still there was not room
enough for those who came. Many were
forced to turn back after reaching the door.
The sermon was affecting, and beautifully
appropriate to the occasion. 1t was full of the
sadness OF parting, and yet bright with the
promise Of hope, and as fitting conclusion
to scene so full Of interest, the choir, at the
close OF the service, sung with much i'm
pressiyness that sweetest Of hymns, ''Shall we
gather at the River?''

HELP FOR IRELAND.-Whilst other con

HELP FOR IRELAND.-Whilst other COM
munities are devising plans and making eff
forts to raise money for the unfortunate in
habitants of Ireland, we have, as yet, heard
OF no movement in that direction by the
citizens of our own town. Certainly they
are not going to be the last to come for
ward and contribute their portion to the
good work. Almost every other appeal has
received a liberal response from the people
OF Staunton, and none o.. them have. as yet,
been so pressing none OF them have been
so freighted with the cry OF distress; none
have been SO directly aimed at the heart. OF
humanity, as the wall that now comes to us
across the waters from the stricken, starv-
ing children Of the Green Isle. The fever's
plague; the wastings OF fire and the ravages
of flood, are terrible, indeed, but their ter
rors pale before the gaunt spectre of FAM
inc, and the wretchedness they entail af-
fords no parallel to the slow, agonizing
tortures of want Of bread. Let us not stand
idly by let us not content ourselves with
mere words Of pity and useless sympathy,
whilst our fellow-men are dying of hunger,
and their loved ones are calling in vain for
bread. These people are neither aliens nor
strangers. They are bound to many Of us
by the ties Of blood-they are bound to all us
by the ties OF humanity. A nobler people new

changed, the generous, noble-hearted Irish.

We suggest that an entertainment be given
for their benefit, and we can think of moth.

of that grand drama, ''Ireland as isl There

Journal, neatly printed and illustrated with

Virginia and W. Virginia, for their wonder
full mineral resources are graphically set
forth by the pen OF one who knows of what
he writes. The journal evidences ability of

ance will cost about s150 per capita. The
average number of patients in the year
lS79-S0 will be about $50, and the total cost
ofsnpport So, 800. For the year 1SSo-Sl.
when the number OF patients cannot be less
than 600, the cost Of support, at the same
rate, will be 100000.
Certain improvements and repairs are
recommended as follows:
LIST. The remodelling OF the heating and
ventillating apparatus, and the construction
OF Improved water closets IN the large de-
tached building for men. This building Is
now in a rather worse condition than SIM
liar one for women was last year, when,
before its improvement. you styled it "a bette
moiy to the sanitarian.''
I'd. The construction of corridors OF COM
munication between the wards and the
central building which will afford real pro-
lection against the weather, and which will
not serve to carry fire from house to house
in case OF accident.
3D.. Improved ventilation in the four
wards adjoining the central building. We
need not waste time in proving that pure
air Is as necessary to the health Of intelli-
gent patients as to that of the demented.
4th. The walling in OF airing court of
ample dimensions.
Last, but not least, the procuring Of an
abundant aupply Of water.
1t is estimated that these Improvements
will cost $4,000.
On the 3Oth of September, there were
AS patients in the asylum, Of whom oil
were males and 239 females. During the
year A males and 65 females were admitted,
and 43 males and Al females removed, OF
the removals 43 were discharged as recover
