Soon after being notified of his
nomination for Congressman, Presi-
dent Wilson left here for his home at
Charlestown to make arrangements
. forthe campaign. The Spirit Of JET
ferson describes his reception thus:
II having leaked out from a pri-
vate telegram sent his family, that
the Hon. VIM. L. Wilson would reach
home from Morgantown that even
ing, the speaking was postponed I'M
til after nightfall. After supper our
citizens, with large number from
the country who had remained, re-
paired to the B. & o. depot, and as
the Winchester Accommodation train
moved in the "Clipper Band" awoke
the echoes with sweet music, and as
Mr.. Wilson stepped from the cars,
such cheers were given as made the
welkin ring. He was escorted to a
+hack by Hon. w. H. Trayers and
Capt. Geo. Baylor, and taken to the
Court House, where there was speed
. ily assembled Notwithstanding the
ateness of the hour, $50 o'clock) a
very large and appreciative audience.
Judge Green, OF the Court of Appeals
was called to preside, and Mr.. Will
son being called for, came forward,
very much embarrassed. Although
usually one Of the most polished, ready
speakers, the reception given him at
his old home, by the friends who had
known him from infancy, and al
so sudden and unexpected, was such
as TO almost overcome him with the
emotions which it stirred within bis
breast. He returned most heart,
thanks, however, for the honor con
ferred, and promised to make goot
use of the few remaining days OF The
campaign In combating his oppo
nent at every point. In Jefferson, ht
conceded, it was useless for him t
waste his time, as her vote as, wa
evidenced by this demonstration
would be given him as largely If no
larger than ever for any Democratic
candidate. He would, there ore, atte
spending Sunday'at home, strike fo
Hampshire county, and take til
stump at once. Mr.. Wilson was 70
lowed by the Hon. w. II. Travers, i
brief but eloquent address, speab
ing in the highest terms of the nom
inee for Congress, and urging tn
best efforts of the Democracy
bringing out the full vote Of the part
on this, the "off-y year" as it is callet
in elections. Isaac Fouke. ESQ

GIRLs.AT GREENDR1E1s.
Wherein the Northern Spccis
mems Differ From Those oftlAc
sunny south.

Greenbrier Letter in the Richmond State.
Riding does not find much patron
age except from Northern guests,
who think this is the .hing to do when
they come to this chivalric section.
The Northern young lady is, in the
main, tennis player, practical, Of
good figure, healthful, not pretty, but
attractively interesting in feature.
She has learned to think Of Southern
young women as being the prize OF
tournament riders and as being the
easy going beauty, soft in texture OF
skin, slow in graceful movement, yet
impulsive and reckless in daring
sport and ready at all times to mount
a racer, be he ever so hoyden and
limber-limbed. This the Northern
young lady is not slow to initiate,
though perhaps, she can never initiate
I It passably. II she would by turn
dress in matronly black, wear her
hair old, read novels and play tennis
in a practiced, athletic kind Of a way,
she would appear much more natural
and in taste.
In fact, in a contrast between North
and South, it is not to be forgotten
that the one is thickly settled dcvot-
| ing it's time to manufacture and mer-
camille purposes, ignoring from ncces-
sity of saving time all else save the
main chance. They meet one an
other so often at the North that q
conventional mode OF greeting Is
found that the Southerner living in
an agricultural district some distance
from his ncighbor would appear per-
haps brusque. For in the nature Of
things they cannot see one another
often, and therefore the hand Is warm
err in the shake and the bow lower and
more hearty in the meeting. As long
as the South has large area and few
manufactures or trained Iaborers, 80
long will there be the means Of out
door pleasure created by the reaction
from idlencss that is incident Il
country livers. Thus it is, perhaps
that fine horses prevail, and thus i
is that duels prevail. Whereve
horses are the companions Of people
there romance must live.

THE WIDOW.

A maid. be she young and handsome,
MAY charm in her own sweet way,
But rolicking, frclicsome widow
Can distance her every day.
She knows, does the cunning widow,
So willy and shrewd the while,
Exactly the time for weeping,
Precisely the time to smile.
She knows, too, a man is human,
That under his coat of mail
Is snugly and surely hidden
The germs OF weakness frail.
And once she has solved that problem
This wickedly witching elf
She leases, and fools, and banters,
But always she guards herself.
Advancing, or shyly retreating,
AT always the proper time;
Oh, widow for rare resources
Will equal the richest mine.
One minute she's warm and loving,
The next she's cold and sad;
Yet knows, does the ripe enchantress,
The man she is driving mad.
She woos with burning ardor,
Or freezes with but a look,
Until she, at least, her victim
Has safely caught on the hook.
And then-it is quite amusing,
She waits for no turn of tide;
The widow-she was a widow
But now she's again bride.
Oh, yes; a maid may be charming,
But never is much to dread,
But when il comes to q widow,
She always comes out ahead.
