State in the Union, requires the largest
qualifications of the voter. He must, il

A Word to the Board of Supervisors OF
Augusta COunty.re-
The Lynchburg Nea0S says


t<Maj.i John w. Daniel, counsel for
the Richmond and Allegheny Railroad
Company, made application TO the SUI
pervisors of Bedford county, IN behalf
of the company, at their recent session,
that the taxes due the county by that
railroad might be applied in the con-
struction and repair of county roads
leading to or near the company's sta
tions. The Supervisors acceded to the
request" tsI, q" ~. =
We hope that some similar DISPOSE
ton of the railroad tax due this county
may be made by our Board of Super
visors. Year after year various plans
of improving the roads have been sug-
gested, but none have ever been put
into operation. Now the county has
this extra fund, over and above its or
binary expenses heretofore, and we
know of no better purpose to which it
could be applied than to the improve
ment of the county roads of Augusta.

ARRIVAL OF THE REMAINS OF JOHN

ARRIVAL OF THE REMAINS OF JOdN
HOWARD PAYNE. AUTHOR OF "HoME,
SWEET HOME. last Thursday, the
remains of John Howard Payne, the
poet and actor, arrived at New York on
the steamer Burgundia, and, being ia
ken in charge by committee of the al
dermen of the city and the representa-
tfves of Mr.. w. w. Corcoran, were con-
veyed to the City Hall. There they lay
in state in the Governors room until
Friday afternoon, when, they were ia
ken to Washington in special car fur
nished by the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company. In Washington the body
will be entrusted to the care of the au-
thorities of the Oak Hill Cemetery un-
til the 9th of June next. the ninety first
anniversary of the poets birth, on
which date the final ceremonies of the
refinement will take place. Mr.. Cor
corau, whose admiration for the author
of Home, Sweet Home" has caused
him to have the poets remains brought
to his native land. has himself selected
in Oak Hill Cemetery the spot destined
to be Payne's last resting place. It is
spot on the crest of a hill, sloping down
to the valley of Rock creek, and marked
by magnificent beech. The surface
round about will be cleared of the vari-
GUS growtbs which obstruct and mai
the view, so that the beech, standing in
solitary beauty, will clearly mark the
locality of the grave. Simplicity is the
sole ornament with which the monu'
ment erected by Mr.. Corcoran is to be
adorned. The inscription will be but
this: John Howard Payne, author Of
Home, sweet Home Born, June 18th,
1922 died April 1st, 1852"
