This afternoon at o'clock twelve
gallant knights assembled on the farm
Of Mr. Jacob s. Atlee, on the Central
pike, to indulge in the old and pleasant
sport Of Communicating. The day
being cloudy and rather cool, it enabled
the knights TO do some good and graOO
full riding. which was witnessed and
enjoyed by about 200 persons, in
cluding some Of IIenrico's and Rich-
mond's prettiest girls. The most for
tunate knight was the knight Of Au-
tumn, Mr.. George Drinker, who
crowned Miss Edith Dougherty queen.
The knight Of the Keystone State, Mr.
Benton Dougherty. was second, and
crowned Miss Mary Bradley first maid
of honor. The third knight, knight
Of Wakefield, Mr. George Atlee.
crowned Miss Mamie Sterling second
maid Of honor. The fourth knight,
Knight Of Ivanhoe. Mr. W. B. Frayser,
being q married gentleman, presented
the knight Of Lone Oak, Mr.. A. Brown,
with his rings. Mr.. Brown displayed
his good taste by crowning Miss Ely
Atlee third maid Of honor. After
the riding Mr.. and Mrs. Atlee opened
their doors TO their friends with an old

BUCHANAN, September 10, 1885.
General Fitzhugh Lee and Major
John ". Daniel spoke here on yester-
day. Although this was a special ap-
pointmont and but a short notice had
been given, a large crowd. including
many ladies', was present to hear the
distinguished speakers.
Major John W. Daniel was first in
troduced, and made, as he always does,
a forcible and eloquent speech, bringing
out clearly and strongly the vital issues
involved in the pending contest. His
arraignment Of the Republican party
and their misdeeds and corruption was
scathing. In closing he paid a graceful
tribute to General Lee. and eloquently
called upon all to rally around the ban
ner of the gallant Fitz and bear him on
to a grand and glorious victory.
When General Lee arose to speak be
was greeted with loud and enthusiastic
applause. lie alluded briefly at the
outset to his first visit to Buchanan,
over twenty years ago, when he follow
ed General Ayerill up the Valley.
While his speech was brief twas clear
and pointed. His plain, honest, and
practical way Of stating questions
pleased and delighted his auditors,
whose close and undivided attention he
held throughout.
At the close he was again greeted
with loud cheers. and large number
pressed forward to grasp the hand Of
the next Governor of Virginia. Both
speeches had fine effect, and you can
safely put Botetourt down for rousing
majority in November. J. W. B.

Massey aud Il. A. Ayers Opsn Our CAM
pasn.
Correspondence ofthe Richmond Dispatch.
LEBANON, September 9, 1855.
This has been a glorious day for De-
mocracy. Our campaign was to-day
brilliantly inaugurated by John f.
Massey and K. A. Ayers at this place
to one Of the largest crowds ever as
sembled at Russell Courthouse.
Mr.. Ayers led off in a speech Of an
hour and a half, which was dignitied,
telling, and able. lie showed himself
the peer of any Mahoneite in the State
on the hustings, and it is well known
in this section that he is more than the
peer Of +. S. Blair before court. The
Convention made no mistake in Mr..
Ayers's nomination, as he is fully prov
irg wherever he is heard. He arose
hey ond the most sanguine expectations
Of his friends.
Mr.. Massey followed Mr. Ayers in a
81 eech Of three hours in length, which
certainly was one Of the most powerful
ever delivered here. 1t was just such
a speech as our people wanted to hear,
and one that made Democratic voters
for us in this county. Mr.. Massey is
the strongest man in the State before
our people. and can do us more good.
Last year the Democratic ticket was
carried in Russell by ljG majority, and
this year the majority will reach 400
at least. This is no wild statement
1t will be verified at the polls. Our
candidate for the House Of Delegates,
K. G.. Howard, who is one Of tbs best
and most influential men in this county
will be elected beyond doubt also,
we will elect our senator. Colonel Gra-
bone, Of Tazewell county.
At the last term OF our court John
s. Wise made speech here that was
noted only for vindictiveneSs and vi
tuperation. lie did himself and his
ticket harm here. and made US votes.
The contrast in the speeches Of to-day
and that Of last court-day told to the
advantage Of Democratic voters.
Our crops are fine. We never raised
so much corn in any one year before.
The hay and oats crops are unusually
large, and We have plenty Of grass. The
wheat crop. however, was fiat failure.
Fruit Of all kinds is abundant, and
thousands Of our trees are breaking un-
der their loads.
Money matters in this section are
growing easier, and the cry Of hard
times is gradually dying out--princi-
pally heard now among the Republicans.
who are trying to make political capital
out Of this absurd charge.

Two men have been ordered to the pen.
itentiary for one year each--one for
felony, one for larceny.
The residence Of Mr.. r. II. Bait, on
the lands Of Captain A. G.. Walters,
about three miles from town, was
burned down night before last, and
with it the furniture, clothing, and pro-
visions Of the family were lost.
The building committee of the Bap-
tist church have reported that the new
heuse has been finished according to
designs and specifications, and the
work approved and received by them.
The cost Of the building was s3l,-
530.07; and the committee say that a
contract has been made for heating
apparatus at $3.50, and they propose
an iron fence for the front at about
s400, and the grading Of the yard and
construction Of walks at a small ex-
pense. The lot, think, cost in round
numbers $4,000, and Of this about
s7,500 was paid from the old church
and the adjoining property.

The public school for white children

than the number with which il opened

There was quite storm Of wind and

been found that there was a slight fall
along down the Piedmont railway line
during that day. Near New Design,
about three miles north from town, the
storm was very violent.

Willie Humphries, Of Madison
Courthouse, must be added to the num-.
Der Of those whom report has made
dead and buried while they were yet
alive. lie is not only not dead, but it
is the belief of his physician, DR.. Cor

siding near the village Of Madison
Courthouse wrote to "a lady of this
place that he was dead and would be
buried on the day on which she was
writing. She was mistaken, however,
as a letter direct from Madison Court
house to his employer here proves, and
young Humphries will live, no doubt,
TO read his obituary in at least three

so than they should have been.
