DISTRESSING AND FATAL ACCIDENT.-Ihe
accounts from the snow storms and slides in
the Rocky Mountains have occupied consider
able space in the daily papers tor the past
week. In several instances small towns, at
the foot of the mountains or their spurs, have
been completely buried. and in some instances
loss of life has been the result. The suffering
has been intense, families driven out from
their homes to escape the avalanche OF snow
impending and forced to wander and wade
through the embankment, to seek security
wherever they might chance to find it. On Sat
urday last telegram appeared in the city
dailies, stating that "a cabin in the noun
tains near Georgetown, Colorado, was swept
away by snow slide on the day previous, and
that it was occupied by VIM. M. and Knox
Pinkard, of New Orleans, and coiored
servant, of whom no trace has been found"
On seeing this announcement, Mrs. f.
Pinkard. who has been residing in Staunton
for several years, experimenting the education
of her daughters at the Virginia Female In
stitute. and the mother of Mr.. Knox Pinkard,
made inquiry as to the truth of the dispatch,
by telegram The reply informed her that
VIM. M. Pinkard, was safe, and that the body
of her son, Knox Pinkard, had been found
indicating that he had lost his life from the
snow Slide This intelligence rapidly spread
through the city, and earnest sympathy was
expressed for the afflicted mother and sisters
of the deceased young man. Since their resi-
deace here they have won many friends by
their refinement and culture, and if the wide
circle of their friends and associations could
do anything to assuage the sudden grief it
would be only too cheerfully done.

THE TELEPHoNE.-Mr ]. W. Crews, tele-
graph operator at this place, has put up in the
store of I. Witt & Bro, telephone, connect
ing the mill of Witt & Holt, about a half mile
of, with the store. Conversation can be car
ried on with ease between the two points, and
whispered word can be readily heard at either
end of the wire. Mr.. Witt expresses himself
much pleased with the experiment, and thinks
it will answer the purpose designed most ad-
mirably, saving much time and expense In at
tending to business, which otherwise would
call him to the MILL or Mr. Holt to the store.
1t will not be long before this wonderful inyen-
ton will be in general use in every business
community. Time is money, and when at
comparatively small cost, this instrument can
be used to economize it and annihilate space,
it will be availed Of

EvERYBoDY READS THE Sun. IN THE
u editions of this newspaper throughout
the year to come everybody will find
l. All the worlds news so presented that
the reader will get the greatest amount of in
formation with the least Improbable expendi-
ture of time and -yesight. The Gun long ago
discovered the golden mean between redun-
dant ~fullness and unsatisfactory brevity.
II. Much of that sort of new which de.
ponds less upon its recognized importance than
upon its interest to mankind. From morning
to morning The Sun prints a continued story
of the lives of real men and women, and OF
their deeds, plans, loves. hates, and troubles.
This story is more varied and more interesting
than any romance that was ever devised.
III. Good writing in every column, and
freshness, originality, accuracy. and decorum
in the treatment OF every subject.
~. Honest omment The Suns habit is TO
speak out fearlously about men aud things.
V. Equal candor in dealing with each politi.
cal party, and equal readiness to mmen
what is praiseworthy or to rebuke what is
blamable in Democrat or Republican.
vi. Absolute independence of partisan or.
CARNATIONS, but unwavering loyalty to true
Democratic principles. The Sun believes that
the Government which the Constitution gives
US is a good one to keep. Its notion of duty il
to resist to its utmost power the efforts of men
in the Republican party to set up another form
of government in place of that which exists
The year 1881 and the years Immediately fol.
