Mt. Hermon Camp.

Reported for the STAUNToN V1NDICAToR.1
The fifth annual encampment of Mt.
Rermon, in East Rockingham, two and
half miles from Elkton Station (Conrad's
STOREY on the S. V. K. R., is now in pro-
gress. It is a sequestered spot on the brow
of hill in the midst of an extensive
woodland. The Tabernacle" as it is
called, is skeleton structure under roof,
with seating capacity in all of about
$500. The stents Of Israeli" numbering
perhaps forty, are ranged around on the
outside, forming a parallelogram about
$50 feet in length. This place is visited
annually by thousands of people from this
and other sections of the State. It is
sort of feast of ingathering to which the

the person to whom it is addressed, if that

he had sailed the river for fifty years and
knew every foot Of the channel, and after
long examination had decided that the
the bar in therjver was caused by the new
s.eeple of the Episcopal church nearby.
Being asked, by the astonished Chairman
of the Committee, how that could be; the
old pilot replied with confidence, that it
was obliged to be that, as there had been
no bar there before the steeple was built !!
The difference between Blair and the pilot
is that the hard times existing by buying
in the debt in Virginia also exist in
every State IN the Union and have ex-
listed for four years-before either Cleye-
land in the Nation or the Democracy in
Virginia came into power. They have
also existed all over the civilized world,
the world probably having foreseen in
1881 that the Democrats in 1885 would be
buying in the Riddleberger bonds. think
all Pilot Blair needs in this campaign is a
fairly good Democratic canvasser to an
swer his folly On the stump.

The Mlnstrels at the Opera House.

The minstrel troupe that appears at the
Opera House o-night-McIntyr &
Heath's- at the top of the profession
in wealth and talent. We see from the
Richmond papers that they arrived there
in their own private Palaces Cars built for
the company. They give spectacular per-
formances, for which they carry their own
scenery and machinery. They also have
novelties which have never been seen
South before-the "Shadow-gr graphs" the
New Telephone and many Others and
not the least is their ''Way Down South.
The house should be filled for such a
troupe; for citizen of Stanton who saw
them in Philadelphia says it is one of the
most refined and faultless performances
he ever saw on the stage.

To Be Prevented.

Several mechanics have recently return
ed to Stanton from the contract Of
Messrs. Shanahan & Green, on the South
ern Pennsylvania & Beach Creek e. r. in
Pennsylvania, called the "Vanderbllt''
road, the work having been stopped in
consequence of W. FL. Vanderbilt having
passed the road into the control OF the
Pennsylvania R. r. Co. The Attorney
General of that State, however, has COM
menced proceedings, under the law pro-
hibiting such consolidation or merger Of
competing roads, to break up the attempt
ed sale, and the prospect is said to be that
the work will have to be resumed. This,
ii it proves true, will be good news to the
many men thrown out of work by the rail-
road gambling Of Vanderbilt.

The East Augusta Mutual Bbard.

PRESIDENT TOWBERMAN RESIGNS, BUT
IS REQUESTED TO WITHDRAW
HIS RESIGNATION.
The Board of Direct DIS of the East
Augusta Mutual Fire Insurance Co., held
a meeting here on Saturday last, at which
the following was received
MINT SPRING, Aug.I15, '85.
To the Board Of Directors Of the b. Il. u. r..
ms Co.
Gentlemen At the last stock
holders meeting, held the 3rd Saturday of
May last, a resolution was adopted directing
the President of the company to order levy
to pay the Driver Sillings loss. My refusal
to order the levy places me in direct disobedi-
enee to the resolution referred to. I cannot
therefore conceive of any right of mine to the
position [ now hold, and [ tender to you gen
tlemen my resignation, both as President and
Director of the company.
Respectfully,
j. TowBERMAN.
Instead Of ordering levy for the loss
named, the President had compromised
the loss greatly to the advantage Of thu
company, and the Board unanimously en-
dorsed his action in the following resolu-
lions:
1, Resozged, That the action of the Presiden
in settling the Driver-Slllings loss is entirel,
approved by, and satisfactory to this Board
We believe it fortunate settlement for tn
company, which will be satisfactory to tn
members of the company when properly un
derstood.
| 2, Resozoed, That the President be, and he i
hereby requested to continue as President o
this company, and while recognizing the posi-
ton he is placed in, we believe his course vii
be fully indicated and approved by the mem
bers of this company when they fully under
stand the service he has rendered it in settling
the Driver-Sillings loss, in what we believe t
be iudicious and satisfactory manner.
President Towberman therefore sus
pended the tender of his resignation, ant
the above resolutions with copy of hi
letter, were ordered by the Board to b
| printed.
