Tho lively period of the year IL
Wytheville is at its heigh. now. lover

summer Wytheville society has ever ex'
perienced. The weekly germans arc

Notwithstanding this fact the number
Of southern visitors Is much smaller
than usual. ard a number oil the board.
ug.hOuseS have room for more. TIE
unusual paucity in numbers IS said to
be on account of the continuous wet
season about New Orleans and Mobile,
the section from which the most of the
summer boaIders come.
IL is ipjudicious to prophesy in poll
tics too fan ahead, but tie general opin.
ion, so far as | have been able to gather
it, is that the Ninth congressional dis

Of the citizens OF this county while as
senbled to cleo! delegates TO the con

disputed questions which will arise in
that body. AT that meeting resolutions
were adopted by small majority and
referred to the convention iayoring the
Blair bill, the abolition Of internal
revenue, and the retention OF protec'
tive tariff on raw materials, and espe.
cially ores.

The dark horse most generally popu-
lar, however, and the one most gene
