$75, 15S had been received, 1903 refu-
gees cared for, and about 1900 located.
But $T,257 remained in the treasury.
Permanent organization was effected
by the election Of Judge Isaacs as chair
man, Henry Mack, of Cincinnati, vice
chairman, and Arthur and Kurscheed,
secretaries. George S. Yates, of the
Mansion House committee, London,
addressed the convention on the sub
ject of his mission to America. He
had advised the London organization
to completely trust the emigration aid
society here; to withdraw from the
principle Of disbursement by England;
to allow New York to receive, disburse
and exercise full control over emigrants;
that New York should receive but a
certain number monthly; that remit
tances of funds be unfettered by reli-
gious conditions, and finally, that a
large sum should be RENTED here In
place of individual remittances as
against each shipment. The subject of
colonization was discussed, and a report
read by Julius Goldman, who had been
appointed to proceed west and report
what qualifications, etc, were required
for successful ~colonists. He advised
against transplanting refugees in mass
es and thought two funds should be es-
tablished, one for those equal to work
on farms and n for those not able to
stand hardships.

THE LAST HOPE.
A Rehearing in Guiteau's
Case Denied.
The Assasain's Bold Exterior Daily
Breaking Down.
An Unsteady Reason Tottering Under
the Strain of Fear.


Washington, June 5,-Chief Justice
Carter and Judges James and Hagner,
constituting the court in banc, to-day
rendered a decision upon the last mo,
ton filed by Reed in G%uiteau's behalf.
The chief justice delivered the decision
as follows: sin the case of Guiteau, the
judges who listened to the argument in
that case have come to the conclusion
that they have exhausted their powers
upon it; that they have heard it pa
tiently, fully and fairly; that a re-argu.
ment would bring no other conclusion
than that already arrived at, and they
decline to reopen the case for argu'
ment.

Washington, June 5.-The jail Off
cials say that the fact becomes more APP
parent every day that Guiteau is failing
mentally and physically. His condition
yesterday was startling in the extreme,
and forbodes a total smashing before
the 30th. Certain signs of physical and
mental disintegration is failure in a per-
son appetite in cases like this, and
Guiteau's appetite is failing. He has
become tacitum and uncommunicative
since lawyer Reeds visit yesterday, and
spends the entire time between rising
and retiring lying stretched or his cot,
bordering, perhaps, on the few inter
vening days between life and death. He
will surely fail before hanging day. 1t
is the opinion of those who see and
know him that he will have TO be taken
to the scaffold and held up until the ia
tai drop falls. AFFECT fear is taking
possession of him, and the assassin will
present a pitiable appearance when the
penalty is reached. Some are inclined
TO think that he will go stark mad prior
to the event, and present indications
surely point in that direction. One
thing is certain, and that is, Guiteau
will surely sink into abject fear and be-
come seriously sick, or become wholly
crazy before many days elapse.

Rome, June 5.-On hearing of the
death Of Garibaldi, the pope remained
silent awhile, then raising his eyes to
heaven, said: There has gone another

heaviest blows and bitterest troubles,
he was no hypocrite. May the prayers
Of his pious mother have smoothed the

DIED IN THE MoUNTAINs-Last week a
dog belonging to Mr.. Jno. Hawkins, dragged
| the arm of man from gorge in the Blue
Ridge mountain to Mr.. Hawkins home in
southeast Augusta. Search was Immediately
instituted for the remainder of the body. On
Wednesday Mr.. James Quick found boot
with a human foot inside and the bone of the
leg protruding. The search was continued and
on Saturday, about two miles north of the
Manganese mines was found quantity of
clothing, hat, coat, underclothing &C., with
here and there piece of putrid flesh. In this
lonely spot the man had laid down to die, and
the dogs of the nelghborhood gathered to feast
J upon his body. He was torn limb from limb,
leaving nothing of the human by which his
name could be known. From the clothing
ane various articles found about them, it was
conclusively proven that the body was that of
Mr.. j. Dorsey Hanger, a gentleman we'll
known throughout the county, and especially
in the eastern section, where he had lived for
many years, and where he has large relation
ship. He was bachelor, and several weeks
ago announced his determination to go West
Shortly after that he visited the house of a
nieghbor, and seemed greatly depressed The
fact that vial of some kind of drug was dis
covered not far from the place where the
clothing were found, taken in connection with
his uneasy and depressed state of mind when
last seen, is thought by some to be evidence
that he administered to himself fatal dose,
and then sought the lonely mountain spot to
die. 1t is indeed sad affair, and has cast a
gloom over the community in which Mr..
Hanger lived.

SMALL PoX-A great deal of excitement
and much unnecessary alarm has been created
in our city during the past week by the an
nouncement that small pox had invaded its
limits We deem it best, in order to quiet the
exaggerated rumors, to give our readers cor
rect statement in regard to the loathsome dis
ease There is but one case of small pex with
in the city limits-that of Miss Shields, who
lives on the extreme south western border of
the corporation. There are two cases within
three miles of the city,-one is that of a col
ored man, living on the Spring Hill road, a
mile or so from the Court House, and the other
that of Mr.. Furr, on Christians Creek, about
three miles out. Each house in which the dis
ease has appeared is closely guarded, and there
need be no apprehension of the contaglon
spreading. We advise, simply as q preeau.
tionary measure, that those who have not been
vaccinated should attend to it at once.
We shall keep our readers fully advised
from week to week, until the last symptom
disappears.
THE FARM advertised by M. NJ. Burket
Trustee, is nice property, and will prove an
investment for any who may purchase, as il
will no doubt go cheap.

REV, R. SMITHsoN.-On Sunday last, both
morning and night, large congregations as
sembled at the Methodist Church to listen to
the first sermons preached in Staunton by the
Rev. R. Smithson, recently appointed by the
Baltimore conference to the pastorate of the
Methodist Church of this CITY, Both dis
courses were marked by mental strength and
vigor, showing depth and breadth of thought
and logical arrangement. There was no at
tempt at oratorical display. Mr.. Smithsen is
one of those calm, deliberate speakers, whose
manner is impressive for its very simplicity
and the absence of any apparent effort. We
have rarely heard language more chaste or
thoughts presented with greater clearness and
force. The members of his congregation, and
the citizens of the town as well, may congratu-
late themselves on having secured pastor so
eminently qualified to supply the place of the
noble men whose successor he is.

providing for crossing the avenue and tunnel
ing under the c. s. O. road west of the bridge.
This is the plan outlined in this paper last

against liability to collision with trains. The
Council agreed to take action on the petition
at special meeting to be held on Tuesday
night.

Mayors Message.

At the meeting of the City Council held on
last Tuesday night the following message was
received from the Mayer
MAYORS OFFICE, April 4, 1882.
Gentlemen Of the City Council.
congratulate you on the peace, good order and
generally prosperous condition Of the city. Bust
ness has fully revived real is steadily rising
remunerative prices.
But few houses in the city are unoccupied, and
many new buildings are In progress of erection.
IL is needless for me to comment on the work of
your body The duties of councilman are respon-
s1ble and at times delicate and onerous He re-
ce1ves no pecuniary compensation for his labors,
and however dtligent and conscientious he may be-
sometimes receives censure when he deserves
praise. II Is fortunate for the city that in view Of
tnese considerations, her most worthy sons are will
ling to serve her in the council. TO the character
OF her councilmen for years past the city Is in my
porous condition.
Our financial condition Is satisfactory Since nv
last message some $4,000 of per cent city bonds
have been called in the means Of Paving them hav-
ing been provided by the sale OF an eoual amount
OF SIX per cent ponds at q Considerable premium
~ h mas Seen promptly met; due atten-
Sio nos peep paid to the sinking fund.- and there IS
every reason to believe that henceforth debt
ON be steadily curtailed.
The bonded indebtedness Of the CITY, to this date,
Is S29o10O Since my last annual message the sink
Ing rund has increased from 1000 to $29, 615.5,
showing an increase of $3.50 for the year, There
is also due the sinking fund 33 to be paid from
the uncollected taxes in the hands of the Treasurer
The schools have received your fostering care,
and we are realizing the benefcent influence that
hows from a source where knowledge is impaired
and proper direction given to the youth.
The appropriation for street Improvement IN the
last year was well expended, and we must derive
much benefit from money expended in that dfree
uon, would recommend that your next allowance
De as liberal as the condition OF the finances Will
admit of.
The Poor have been we'll provided for.
All that was said In the last annual message IN
regard to the Fire Department might, with proprle-
ty, be repeated here, it has been demonstrated
on more than occasion, within the last year,
that the fire companies are equal to any emergency
that is likely to arise.
The Police is effectual as can reasonably
expect from small force. The arrests made In
the last year number 42S. Amount paid into the
treasury on of fines and costs for the same
time, $663,60. VIM. L. BALTHIS,
Mayor

Total estimated resources. ...$55, O33 sc


The total bonded debt of the city amounts
to $195,700 The amount held by the sinking
fund is $29,615.5O.
The general features of the tax ordinance of
1882 were re-adopted
The committee states that the finances of
the city are in healthy condition; the inter-
est on the bonded debt has at all times been
promptly paid; the sinking fund is rapidly
growing, and during the year just closing the
bonded debt and interest account have been
somewhat reduced ''" .'>
Pstitsons Gc.-A number of petitions upon
various subjects we're received and properly
referred. The petition of J. F. Patterson, clerk
asking for additional compensation, was re-
turned with the report that whilst the Coun
Gil recognize the ability and faithfulness with
which Mr. Patterson has discharged his duties
yet the committee do not deem it expedient a,
this time to recommend an increase of the
salaries OF any of the city officers. In THU
instance we think the Council might have
with all propriety, granted the prayer of thu
petition for there is no other officer in the CITY,
employ whose compensation is so small com
pared with the amount Of labor performed.

A PROSPEROUS COMPANY During the
month of March the amount of new policies
issued by the Valley Mutual Life Association,
aggregated four hundred and sixteen thous-
and, five hundred dollars, the largest business
ever yet done in single month. For the
quarter ending April LIST one million dollars
worth of policies were issued, making grand
total of policies now in force of six million
seven hundred and fifty thousand four hun
dred dollars.
The remarkable success that has attended
the career of the Valley Mutual Life Associa-
ten is telling tribute to the able manage
ment which has characterized its conduct from
the day of its Inauguration to the present
time. 1t started out on a plan peculiar to
itself-combining the best features ofthe old line
and assessment companies, and evolving there
from system, which whilst giving to its pol
icy holders insurance at small advance on
cost, guarantees the full face value of its pol
cies, and thus assures to those who have
claims against 1t every cent that any company
could promise. This plan of operation was
fixed upon after a careful study of the whole
subject of insurance. and the success that hat
been attained under it vindicates the wisdom
of it's adoption, and proves that it supplies 9
want long felt by men of moderate means who
wish to avail themselves of the benefits of life
| insurance.
| The plan being matured, the best business
men of our city-gentemen of means, high
character, an6 well-known business capacity
were enlisted in its management, and in 6
few years they have brought it up to the pro
portions of an immense concern, establishing
an institution second to none in the South
and one of which our city, especially, has q
right to be proud We know the men who
have control of the Valley Mutual. They are
men who have been successful in business, who
have the entire confidence of the people Of
this community, and are In every way worthy
Of the confidence OF any people AS for our
selves, we most heartily and cordially endorse
the company and its officers. They are doing
good work by placing !. %i.nH ' tse P1%u'
lilies in case of death.
