Preaching.

Correspondence of the Alexandria Gazettel
ORLEAN, July 81, 1882 Elder John X.
Bootan, who preached in the Orleans Baptist
Church, was greeted by one of the largest
congregations it has been our pleasure to
see ut church in this community since the
association was held at Thumb Run, several
years ago. AS early us o'clock the people
began to pour in from every direction, and
long before the hour of preaching arrived
the house was densely packed, with scarcely
standing room to be had on the floor or in
the gallery, while a great number could
not gain admittance yet they crowded
every window and door, and every available
space, to hear the Gospel preached by the
man who has warm place in the hearts of
a large number of people wherever known.
Rev. S. NJ. Athey took occasion to say that
people often wonder why the Baptists allow
ed other people to occupy their house of
worship. Said he, "when the Baptists are
ut their best they are the most charitable
people in the world"
Elder John X: Bootan then preached al
able, clear, pointed and impressive sermon
which was listened to with profound atten-
ton throughout, Notwithstanding the heat
able and tolcible preacher, and clear ex-
FOUNDER of the grand and glorious truths of
the word Of God. He not only feels what
he breaches to others, but makes them feel,
and convinces his hearers that he is deeply
in earnest for their salvation.
After an intermission, Mr.. Stewart of
Alexandria, preached to the largest audience
to which, he said, he had ever tried to
preach. Though young man, he is a
torcible speaker and preached most in
teresting sermon from the following text ::
How shall we escape if we neglect so great
salvatian?" and thus ended the Gospel feast
long to be remembered by those who were
so fortunate rs to be partakers. P,

MANDAMus ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS at

MANDAMUs Yesterday, at
Wytheyille, the Court of Appeals awarded a
peremptory maadamus against P. H. Nc
Caull, the keeper of the rolls, to compel him
to publish among the laws passed at the last
session of the Legislature an act incorpora-
ting the Virginia and Carolina Railroad
Company. 1t will be remembered that this
bill was passed by both houses and sent to
the Governor, and before its return, by a
joint resolution, the Governor was requested
to return the bill to the Legislature without
acting upon it, which was done. The Court
of Appeals held that the bill became law,
inasmuch as it had not been vetoed by the
Governor within five days after it was sent
10 him, and that no action of the Legislature
short of a repeal could abrogated the
charter granted in the BILL The bill by this
decision stands as one Of the acts passed at
the last session.

Hon. JOHN E. MAssEY.-This distinguish
el gentleman, the Independent Democratic
opponent Of John s. Wise ,Stalwart Republi-
can candidate for congressman at large, was
in the city Yesterday. TO those with whom
ne conversed on topics political, Mr. Massey
expressed his unfaltering and ever increas-
ing faith in the success of Democratic prin-
ciples and the utter overthrow of Stalwart
Radicalism and its representatives in Vir-
gnia. He is confident that Mahoneism is on
the wane everywhere, and, speaking more
specifically, said that in several of theValley
counties through which he has recently pas
sed the only following which this new
Hedged Republican leader may boast is of
an entirely personal character, excepting a
few individuals who are either enjoying or
livingi in daily expectation of the emolu-
ments Of office. Mr.. Massey, who impress
ed the writer as being gentlemen of great
cautiousness in expressions of opinion, and
discretion in his statements of fact, is much
pleased with the outlook in the Valley, and
was absolutely gratitied with his reception
and the result of his visit to Page county
Lynchburg Neaps.

KNOCKED SPECIFIES BY LIGHTNING
During the thunder storm that passed over
Berryville shortly after noon on Friday last,
Mr.. c. B. Beck, the railroad agent and tel
egraph operator, was so severely shocked by
lightning entering the Office over the wire,
that he remained in an almost lifeless condi-
ton for more than three hours. He was
sitting by the side of the instrument, with
the connecting wire severed, when the cleo
trio current entered, but the charge was so
heavy that the wire conducting it to the
ground was hardly able to carry the fluid off.
Several other gentlemen were in the officeat
the time, and they all felt the shock slightly.
Mr.. Beck is recovering very slowly When
u halfgrown boy he was severely prostrat-
ed by ghtning.-C2arke Courier.

THE STRIKING MINERS in the Georges
creek coal region have hitherto contented
themselves with derisive yells and hootings
at the new workers in the mines of the Con-
solidation Coal Company. Intimidation
from beyond the fence was vocally attempt
ed, but there was no actual violence But
now the malcontents haye taken bolder
step. The recently opened Koontz Mine, be-.
longing 10 the New Central Coal Company,
was Oh Wednesday night surrounded by a
body of strikers, and the policemen were
forced to abandon it, and seek refuge at Eek
HIATT: There were only nineteen policemen
at the koontz Nine which probably ac-
counts for the holiness of the rioters.
