Death of a Venerable Citizen.

On Sunday night last, Capt. Thomas
Burke. an old and prominent citizen OF
our county, died at the advanced age OF
seventy-eight years. He was the father
of Robt W. Burke, President of the
Staunton City Council, W. A. Burke, late
Secretary of the State Agricultural Socie-
ty. Thomas Burke. ex-Mayor of Hunting
ton, and Butler Burke, x-Door-Keeper of
the Virginia House Of Delegates. Though
he was never politician as the word goes,
his opinions and those of the late Jacob Bay
Tor, taken together with the social stand
ing and high character of the two men. did
more to plant and maintain Democratic
principles in the county of Augusta, not
withstan ding its immense Wing majority,
than the efforts of the famous State lead
ers of that party. Except to participate
in the public deliberations of his fellow
citizens, however, he never went further
in politics than the giving OF counsel,
though his clear head and strong cenvlc.
tions would have given him prominence
had he chosen to take more active part
in public affairs. His life was spent and
ended on farm. and the. kindly words of
his neighbors are his best epitaph. He
was buried in Stanton on Tuesday by the
side of his wife with whom he had lived
for more than half century, and who
only died five months ago.

"HazeI Kirke. :"

This picturesque domestic drama, which
is to be produced at the Opera House on
Thursday evening next, by the famous
Madison Square Theatre Company, was
lately spoken of by the Chicago Inter
Ocean, as follows:
"a story as simple as a garland of au-
tumn leaves, and as dellcately beautiful,
makes of ''HaZel Kirke' a charming play
Over the mind sometimes steals the quiet
influence of fanciful revery, when
memory and imagination blend in the Gre
alton of pictures-not all complete and
perfect-that delight, soften, and make
better the man. Dreams they may be. that
reason can dispel-as a breath dlsslpates
the flmy clouds-a part of them. But
there is rest in them. There is pleasure.
A mingling of pathos and Joy silently and
unconsciously. Such is the impression ex-
perienced listening to the story and wit
Messing the action of Hazel Kirke. Run
ming quietly along, over an even Way,
among shadows and in Sunshine, amid
smiles and tears, but never turbulent, new
er harsh, never rugged, the piece awakens
a sense more nearly akin to the feeling OF
reverie than any play we have ever SEEN
Its vlcissitudes, its sorrowful phases, its
lessons of wrong. arise from the attributes
of moral right Tor moral duty and OF love.
There is nowhere an immoral act, there is
nowhere crime to be atoned for, there is
no villain, no trickster, no schemer. Ev-
cry phase and condition of the play is pure,
clean, good. The single departure from
the kindly course, the incentive of the in
teresting, dramatic and emotional proper
ties OF the play, is the resolute, obstinate
will of a plain, honest, good old man, who
reckons duty above every other earthly
consideration. There is an indescribable
grace, wordless charm about the play that
cannot be woven into a synopsis more than
the colors of violet can be resolved by
the chemist. Hazel Kirke' has a strong
hold On Chicago.'

An Opportunity for Farmers to get Help

An Opportunity for Farmers to get Help.
A gentleman of Lexington, as we learn
from the "Gazette.' has received letter
from an agent representing an English COM
oany desiring to promote the emigration
to this country Of a good class OF laborers
az land buyers. The writer is DESTROYS on
behalf OF English peasants to obtain the
uames of few experienced and trust
% orthy farmers to whose care youths from
1s TO Is years Of age might be safely en-
trns ted, for year or two prior to their
having their own farms.
Hetten suggests that farmers here shall
enter in to an agreement to receive into
their houses farn pupils, properly recon-
menaed, providing them board, lodging
and comfortable homes ia return for SER
