Clarke COunty-Its Prosperity.
tClarse Couricr.l

tClarbc tOu1lCT.l
Last week our readers were informed OF
the aggregate valuation OF the real estate OF
Clarke county, and the average value per
acre of the same, including improvements,
under the recent assessment. While the
returns from the fue counties OF Loudoun.
AlbemaTle, aud Augusta show falling OIL
i'm value OF The property comprising said
counties, little Clarke returns an average
increase in value OF Sl.30 per acre OF AL
her lands. Although one-tiftn OF the terri
tory OF sthe county comprises Blue Ridge
mountain land, it is believed that the aver
age valuation ascertained for the entire
cOunty-a fraction over S24 per acre-is fail
aud Just. Certain IL is that there Is hardly
a landowner in Clarke county willing 10 &C.
cept as an annual rental for his farm the
payment OF s per cent. upon the valuation
ascerta,ned by the assessing commissioner.
This evidence Of increased prosperity IN
the county is no doubt matter for con-
graduation with all who are Interested in
lis welfare. Additional evidence OF its
prosperity is found in the fact that there
are fewer lands in market, and money is
less stringent. -Four or five years ago Dor.
rowers at & per cent. outnumbered those
now asking for loars al 6 per cent, and
the process OF collecting claims by law i,
not 50 frequently resorted 10 as formerly ;
in fact, there is marked improvement In
business transactions and business pur.
suits-all tending TO show that our people
are once more getting upon good standing
ground.
AS an ag9cultula. community we arr
keeping pace with the progress made III tina
branch Of industry. The introduction o
| improved machinery, better tillage OF th'
soil, and stock.raising with the production
Of grain, are rec pgnized as necessary ant
resorted 10 as concomitants OF successful
farming. Favorable seasons have OF lat
years smiled upon the industry and energ,
OF our agrculturists, and while the price
realized were no: at all times as high q
some wished for, they have been consldera
bly, compensated by the easy and convenien
distance TO market furnished by the con
struction through the heart OF the count,
OF the Systematically Valley railroad.
With the present condition OF our coun
| ~ so cheering, with climate a. heaIthfu
as any upon the globe, with lands naturally
as fertile and scenery as lovely as any tina
the sun looks down upon, and with a popu
lation that was plunged into the depths o.
poverty by the destruction Of all their per
sonal property, but that built upon thu
wreck and ruin OF war the present pros
perity OF our county, and that Is daily
growing more In love with their occdpa
tion, II Is safe to conclude that the future o.
Clarke will surpass its most golden period
OF the past.

The Baltimore American copies from the
Dispatch the proceedings Of the Republic
can State Central Committee at its meeting
the other day, and comments as follows:
"Thcy have special significance, in
view OF the Efforts which Malone is making
TO persuade northern Republicans that they
ough. to lend their counienancc TO the Re.
adjusters and force the Republicans OF Vir-
ginia to coaesce with these regulators.
For ourselves. we entertain 10 fear that
success will attend these efforts, and our
Virginia friends should not mistake the
biuster Of few politicians for the senti.
ment OF the Republican masses. They may
rest assured that the Republicans Of the
North do appreciate their devotion to prin.
cipIe, and that they do not desire to sec
them depart from it,"
The american will iind that the Republi
cans have a "large contract on hand
when they undertake to withdraw all the
colored votes from General MALONE. He
has several thousand OF them at his com.
mand. In fact, we shall not be surprised
is his forces next November number rs
|Rnany OF them as OF the whites, though the,
win nevertheless be the smallest Of the tire,
Icontend,ng parties.

The effort being made to diSpllce Mrs.
General Long as postmaster at this place Is
looked upon with disfayor by large ma
ioriry OF the people. The attack upon this
lady, who has given satisfaction TO the COM
munity, is properly characterized by your
Washington correspondent as "unsal-
LIANT" to say the very least OF it; and
when a dignifed United States judge
de,cends to the level OF petty partisan for
the purpose of furthering the interests
OF some personal friend, or even 10 build
up bis party viii traduce the character OF a
lady who is COMMUNICATE OF the same
Church, his attempt meets, as il should, the
condemnation OF all rightthnking people.
Whether the charges brought against Mrs.
Long be true or moi, Il is certain that she
has committed no benOus offence against
the dignity and interests Of the United States
Government, and the fact that she is Il lady
should be sufficient TO protect her from the
malicious aud peurilc assaults OF interested
Otiice.hunters.

be made. These, coupled with the weak

after making an examination, decided tC
