DESTRUCTION OF BEEs.-Mr. George W.
Rosenberger, of Rockingham, noted breeder
of fine stock, poultry, bees, DC, in writing to
the New Market VALLEY states that partial in
vestigation of the few bee yards at and near his
home, developed the fact that there was an un-
usual mortality among the bees this winter.
One hundred and eighty-six colonies were ex-
amined of which 1872 had persisted. Contin-
uing, Mr.. Rosenberger says that this has
been decidedly the greatest destruction of bees
in this region of country in any way to my
knowledge, that has occurred within my rec
election, OF within the last fifty years. The
cause is think without doubt, the extraord-
nary cold winter, they having frozen to death;
as in many cases, they had plenty of bees, and
plenty ofhoney to havelived an ordinary winter
with all facility imaginable-mercury having
ranged on several occasions from 30 to as
much as 36 degrees below zero. This appears
10 be more than the bees of this climate can
endure. My loss has been 26 out of 4S, and
some persons lost all they had. This looks a
little discouraglng, but it is not good to look
too much on the gloomy side of anything. l
presume, it is IN the bee business like 1t is in
any other, it must have its cloudy days lis
well as its sunshine. So the best thing that
can be done, in my opinion, is to try again,
hold out faithful to the end, and we will be
saved, and finally be blessed with plenty OF
money!"

RAILROAD IN HIGHLAND.-It seems tina
steps are being taken looking to the extension
of the Richmond & Allegheny Road from
Clifton Forge to Pittsburg, by way of the rich
iron fields of Highland andadjoining counties.
The last Recorder has the following
Maj. P. P. cambridge, an engineer of consd-
cradle celebrity formerly employed as chief
engineer on number ofrailways was in town
on Tuesday and Wednesday. He is engaged
in making preliminary survey of the Pitts
burg extension of the Richmond & Allegheny
Railroad. On Tuesday, Maj. D. examined
Samples divide east of this place, and found
it practicable passage, and on Wednesday he
started northWard on his way to the headWa-
tiers ofDry Fork and Candy.
The route represented by Maj. cambridge
starts from Lexington, one of the eastern ter
mini of the Richmond & Allegheny Railroad,
thence across the country to the Bull Pasture
river, up that and Crab Run to Samples di-
vide, then down Straight Greek by the best
practicable route-either through Crab Bot
tom, or via Harpers Gap to Big Run, up that
to the top of Allegheny mountain, so as to
strike Candy and Dry Fork and down these
and Cheat and the Monongahela to Pittsburg.
1t is believed that railroad will certainly
RECONSTRUCTED in the near future, by Pittsburg
capital, from that city to point on the R. d
A. R. r. and this route, being the shortest by
about 80 miles, should be the one adopted, es-
pecially as it would tap immense beds Of the
finest iron ore in the country
The competing route or routes are those
which would start from Williamson or Gov
ington and, crossing Pocahontas to Tygart s
Valley and follow that stream and the Mon
ongahela to Pittsburg. 1t will be found that
that route is much longer and equally as diff
cult of construction, as the one which makes
Lexington a terminus, and has not the same
advantage of iron ore along its route.
One good thing in connection with this en-
terprise, as the people of this county will be-
lieve, is that no money is asked from the
counties along the line.

Parnassus Items.
Reported for the VIRGINIAN. |

Our Farmers are very backward in their
spring work owing to the inclination Of win
ter to linger in the lap of spring. AS yet very
little ground has been broken in our section
The chilled pillow is rapidly growing in IA
yor. In some instances the old favorite plow
that would have done good service has been
entirely discarded to make room tor the new
fayorite. I find that our best farmers who
have introduced the chilled pillow seem to be
perfectly satisfied with its work. The Liy-
ingston Bradley pillow was pretty generally
used among our farmers and l have heard the
suggestion from experienced persons that if
the Bradley pillow was chilled and polished it
would be able to compete with the new ia
vorite
An Epidemic of Measles is prevailing in our
vicinity and in many instances persons OF ma
ture years were afflicted with a secondary or
hybrid attack which in its symptoms and eff
feet was nearly as severe as the genuine mea-
sizes. The school at this place was suspended
on account of the epidemic, both teachers hay
ing been Frustrated with secondary attack.
Happily, however, all are recovering and there
were no fatal cases.
Contere,,ce.-There were no services at the
Methodist church last Sunday, our pastor be-
ing absent at conference. This issue of the
VIRGINIAN will announce our new pastor who
will find a neat, comfortable and conveniently
arranged parsonage erected during Rev. MIR.
Snaps charge of this circuit. Also important
and tasteful improvements have been made to
the interior of the church, including an excel
lent organ procured during the past year. Rev.
Snapp was recently the recipient of neat and
substantial set of single harness put up by
Frank Harlow, Esq, at cost of $50. the
amount being made up by friends of the
pastor.
Ma17Tage.-On last Tuesday evening, Mr.
William Baxter was married to Miss Hennie
Snapp, eldest daughter of Rev. Snapp. The
happy couple have the best wishes of host of
friends that they may enjoy prosperous and
joyous life voyage.
Fatal Accident.-Dr. Cooper Kunkel has re-
ceived message from friend of the sudden
death of his uncle, Waddle Kunkel, by pre-
mature explosion of dynamite blast He
was engaged in the construction of railroad
for the Oregon Railway and Navigation Com
pany in Washington Territory. The accident
occurred near Snake river, and the body was
blown some four hundred feet and fell into the
stream and up to latest advices had not been
recovered. The deceased was native of this
county and was brother of our esteemed citi-
zens, Jacob, William and David Kunkle.

PRESIDENTIAL CoUsINs.-The New York
Herald has been hunting up Gen1 Garfeld's
relations and claims to have found q first
cousin to the President in the person of Mr..
W. J. Wiley, of Charlotte, N c., who states
that his mother and President Garfield's moth
er were sisters. Mr.. Wiley emigrated from
Virginia some twenty odd years ago. He
formerly lived in Staunton, having learned his
trade with the late B. F. Points, ESQ. His
mothers name was Bollinger. The
Bollinger family residence was on North Au-
gusta-street, and the father was employed by
the late Judge Brown as brewer AS well
as can be now ascertained, the family embraced
three girls, one of whom married Mr. Wiley,
father of the W. J. Wiley above mentioned !;
of j. G. Wiley, who died in this city several
years ago, and whose family still reside here;
and of Mrs Jno. Parent, also of this place
tiers and emigrated to Ohio, some forty years
since. Old Mr.. Bollinger and the remainder
of the family also moved to Ohio. Besides
the girls there were one or two boys The
family though possessed of but moderate share
OF this worlds goods, We're esteemed as
straightforward, honest, hardworking people,
commanding the respect of the community in
which they lived. The descendants of the
Wiley family, comprising the children of the
late j. G. Wiley and Mrs. Jlo PARENT, are
toleraby numerous, and are wcrt,ly people
They live in Stanton and are in moderate
circumstances.
Mr. George Fuller, one of the Oldest res
dents of the place, from whom the facts abov.
set forth were chiefly obtained, informed tbs
writer that he knew the Bollinger family well,
and that when McAlear, who married one Of
the girls, as stated above, moved to Ohio, he
Fuller) accompanied him. That was forty
odd years ago. Mr.. Fuller made the trip on
horseback, and the rest of the party went in a
wagon.

IRREGULARITIES IN THE MARSHAL's OF
FIcE.-The Richmond Dispatch of the 18th
publishes long official report, made to the
Department of Justice by G. G. Lancaster, Jr,
a special agent sent to make an investigation
of the affairs of the marshals office for the
Western District of Virginia. 1t is very
damaging report, and shows gross disregard OF
duty and fraud by the deputy marshals, COM
missionors, &C., whose field of operation has
been in the southwest portion of the State.
The special agent affirms that the deputy mar
shals were in collision with professional in
formers in working up frivolous cases. He
says that nearly every deputy marshal west OF
Lynchburg had two or three professional in
formers in his employ. Bogus and illegal
warrants were served in many cases. Illegal
and excessive ices were charged, and witness
fees paid to parties, friends Of deputy mar
shals, who had never been summoned. The
special agent charges that the marshaPs office
has, in the last fiscal year, cost the govern
ment 1000 more than it should have done.
1t is well known that Marshal Lewis has
been in delicate health for some time, and not
long since had very painful surgical opera
ton performed. He has necessarily been I'M
able to give that attention to the office which
he would otherwise have done, and taking adj
vantage of his forced absence from duty some of
the deputy marshals perpetrated the frauds.
At an interview between the special agent and
Judge Rives, when the above facts were laid
before him, the Judge was satisfied that a re
form was necessary throughout the district,
and especially in the marshaPs office, and so
wrote to Marshal Lewis. When the result of
the investigation was made known to Mar
shall Lewis he was greatly surprised, and i'm
mediately wrote the names Of some twenty
deputies whom he would remove at once. The
spirit running through the report is more like
that of persecution than an important state
ment of facts, and is fiayored by sentiment
of hostility from some cause or another.
Marshal Lewis is now in Washington on
business connected with the investigation. 1t
is unnecessary to add that the most mistaken
confidence in the Marshaps integrityis reposed
by the Department of Justice as well as by his
personal friends All who know the man,
know his sterling character and purity of pur-
pose in every act.
