t[5- 1t is now probable that an adjust
ment of the long difficulty of the Page
County Bond question with the :. '. K.
r. Co. will take place. About two weeks
ago conference of the attorneys of both
parties was held at Iuray, the county
seat, at which proposition was submit
ted by the railroad company, proposing TO
accept 500, 600 Of county bonds, and the
county TO relinqush $500, 200 of the stock
in said company. This proposition being
acceptable to the counsel OF the board OF
supervisors. they took il under consldera-
ton and advised the board 10 accept tie
same, which the board of supervisors
agreed to. provided it met with the appro-
baton of the people Of the county, ana 10
obtain this steps were forthwith taken TO
call meetings in the four magisterial dls-
tricts of the county to consider the prOpo-
sition and give an expression OF thelr
views. These meetings were all held on
Thursday and Friday OF last week, all OF
which were unanimous for the approval
of the proposition. The board, thus beng
instructed, viii at an early day have
meeting. consumate the settlement AMI IS
she the bonds for 500, 600. This proposed
settlement gives universal satisfaction to
the people of the county, who feel able
and willing to pay 500, 900 for an i'm
prOyement of so much value to them, ana
which runs 81 miles through the county.
At the same time il is a good thing to the
company, for it gets 100000 III county
bonds, which will be as good as gold, ana
at the same time dispoScs of 500, 1000 stock
of the company at fifty cents on the dollar
"A happy termination of al exciting con-
trOyerSy.

CHaRLEsrowN, Aug. LIST, 1881.


Mr.. Editor-The citizens meeting to-
day in relation to the taxes due from
the railroads 10 the county, school dis
tricts and municipalities, although not
large was spirited and resulted in the
passage of resolution requesting the
County Commissioners to employ a6fe
counsel to aid the Attorney-General OF
the State in collecting the back taxes.
This has been vexed question which
has given rise to considerable feeling
between certain parties in this county,
especially among the farmers and some
of the Attorneys; the farmers Justly con-
tending that the railroads should pay
their taxes in full upon the assessed
value OF their property within our coun-
tv. whilst some of the Attorneys was
for letting them off upon compromised
settlement, which reduced their taxes
about one-third. We hope the other
counties in the State through which
railroads pass will do likewise; the roads
show ne tavors to the mass OF the peo-
pie, but upon the other hand make US
pay for what they say they lose on
through traffic. OBSEhV Eli.

1@ A correspondent TO the Balti

S1~ A correspondent 10 the Balti-
more Sun of Monday last, in reference
to the progress of the S. V. K. K,
says:
To one who, like your correspondent,
served in the Confederate cavalry during
the late war in the valley of Virginia, and
became thoroughly familiar with that sec
ton, trip over the Shenandoah Valley
Railroad between Shepherdstown and
Waynesboro' affords revelation OF the
changes in that section since the close of
the war. The scars of war, then visible
almost every mile between these two
noints. have been removed, and the coun-
trv ia now penetrated by one Of the most
thoroughly constructed and best equipped
railroads in The country, which promises
IN accomplish most beneficial results in
the development of the Page valley, here
tofore dsprived If the benefits of rail-
road. Already the towns along the line
are building up, handsome depot buildings
have been erected at convenient distances,
and at these are being delivered daily in
large quantities the products of the field,
the forest and the mine for shipment north
ward. The points at which these evidence
Of thrift are most noticeable are Berryville,
Riverton, Front Royal ,Luray, Shenandoah
Iron Works, Elkton and Port Republic.
As known to the readers the present ter
minus of the Shenandoah Valley Road is
Wavnesboro', Augusta county, Va, where
il forms Il connection with the Chesapeake
and Ohio Railroad, but the road is being
pushed to completion to Big Lick (here-
after to be known as Roanoke) on the Nor
folk and Western Road, which is owned
by the capitalists chiefly interested in the
shenandoah Valley Company. Three
thousand men are engaged in this extern
sion, which is expected TO be completed
by the lst Of January next. At Roanoke
q land Improvement company has been
formed, which designs laying the place
out in lots, and suitable dwellings will be
erected, the idea being TO make it town
of Importance. 1t is accessible to lime
stone, coal and iron orc, and the improve
ment company bespeak for it prosperous
future. Car works. it is said. are to be
erected at Roanoke, and the Pennsylvania
Steel Company at Harrisburg, Pa, has
consulted with landowners with view
TO locating several furnaces there. Not
satisfied with this, the Shenandoah Valley
Road is already arranging to construct
branch from Roanoke to Rocky Mount,
Franklin county, Va, which will pcne-
tratc one of the finest mineral sections OF
the State.
