The Race of Martyrs Not Extinct.

Accounts of the massacre of Catholic
missionaries and converts in southern
China show that the race of martyrs is
by no means extinct. Father Terrace,
who had lived for nine years in Yunnan,
when a mob surrounded his house at
night, gathered his followers in the
chapel, gave the last absolution, went to
the door, and presenting himself to the
rabble, said: Here am / to answer for
all. He was at once cut down by
sabres. Father Bechet, young priest in
Tongking, saw number of his converts
beheaded, and then, refusing to be bound
Or blindfolded, offered his neck to the ex-
ecutioner without a tremor. Father Chate
let. ordered 10 descend to the place of exc
cution as hundreds of his converts had
done, said: II shall not go so far Ifyou
want my head come and get it." The
swords made short work Of him where he
stood New York Sun.

Wednesday, Oct. I3.
The heavy Pea-iackets

plain farmers'-satin lin

are Seventh Ten and

we do not doubt, almost
a new revelation in some
garments that we have in

Light colored and light

here, prices commencing

up to $500 each. Of

ITO the Editor of the Globe Republic:
As the election approaches it may be well
to arrange our force. and prepare for the
political duties that await us.
Republicans, are We ready for the CAIN

stow our best gifts Of industry, time and
patriotic interest upon the work OF redeem

- The sworn testimony OF hundreds

Had it so happened that the frauds OF
the Cincinnati election could not have been

their seats; and thus it would have cone
to pass that the hand that placed
naught upon figure seven
had more power in shaping our political
destiny for several years to come. than ali
the republicans OF the state combined; for
in that case another United States senator

EncyeIopsdia britannica.

Up to the present time in the history of
civilization the encyclopedia Britannica is
the ae plus ultra of literary and scholastic
achievement In science, in literature, in
art and in history, it has no peer and no
worthy competitor. Many of its articles
are whole treatises, and the whole work, be-
ing well indeXed, is suitable both for ready
reference and consecutive reading. For ref
erence it is the supreme court Of authority,
and from its pages there is no appeal. To
the individual, the family and the commu-

TIE Summer Normal in Stanton.

TIE Summer Normal in Stanton.
Both houses of the legislature have
passed the bill giving the State Superin-
tendent of Public Instructions the author
ity to use the chapel and recitation rooms
OF the D., D. & B. Institution here for
the Summer Normal. during the vacation.
of that State educational Institution. Our
citizens and the friends Of education at
large are under peculiar obligations to
Delegate Echols, who introduced the
bill. and Senator Taylor Ellyson, of
Richmond, who secured its pass through
the Senate. With such admirable &C.
commodations as the large buildings
and fine grounds of the 1nsti-
tuition offer, we can gather here the
largest Normal ever held in Virginia, as
sembed under favorable conditions for
study never equalled in the State. 1t is
likely that with these advantages the
number of teachers from all parts of the
State assembled in Staunton this summer
will be near nine hundred. The number
last year vas. we think, $40. To accom-
modate such number, our citizens must
commence looking ahead and making pre-
partitions for boarding them. With good
board and such study rooms as the State
has now given them, the Summer Nor
mails will always be held in Staunton
hereafter. Taking the average from last
Summers Normal, an institute of 900
teachers will spend in Staunton $45 600,
something worth considering when we
reflect that it comes just in the dullest
months of the year.
