A MODERN FABLE. Some of the eccen-
tricities Of modren adulteration are deli

is now demanded in almost every branch
of trade than al any time for years, The
actual stringeDcy that is felt according to
judicious observers is due far more 70 the
enlargement of Legitimate trade than TO
operations in the stock market, but there
are operators that seize upon this condi-
ton of the market in order to force hold
ers to part with their securities, and the
market is thus rendered more strong and
more em barrassed for legitimate trade, as
we'll as for speculation. Busine ss gener-
ally is getting into more healthy condi-
ton. The danger and almost only dan

The Natural Bridge property is
now in the progress of extensive i'm.
provements, including fine hotel and
other attractions, which will make it
at an early day place Of more gen.
eral resort than ever, particularly for
summer visitors. One notable change
has already been made, which will be
AN agreeable surprise 10 the public;
no charge is now made for looking at
the bridge, which seems to be in the
line Of the ancient tradition connected
with the property, that Mr.. Jefferson,
who was the first owner (it having
been irst surveyed and patented in
his name) intended 10 dedicate il 10
the public as free 10 all visitors. Ac-
cording TO the tradition, there was a
provision in the will TO that effect;
but this is a mistake, as the writer has
ascertained by an inspection oft aud
a deed Of conveyance on record 10
Rockbridge county. The first charge
made for looking at the bridge was
% cents, then 80 cents and finally 81
AT the former prices it was a source
Of considerable income, but 81 was
more than the public were willing to
stand, and like the last pound, broke
the camefs back. The consequence
was. that for two or three years past
the income has been very inconsidera.
