RIpoN, January Is, 1886.
Mr.. Editor Fearing lest our lit
tie village may be forgotten in the
columns of your valuable paper, and
that you may count me as non-cor-
respondent, will once more endeav-
or to give you some of the news OF
this place.
Winter has visited US at last
Mother earth is enshrouded with a
covering of white. The snow has
drifted fearfully in this neighbor-
hood, some of the roads are i'm
passable farmers have to tear down
fences and go through their fields
Some of our citizens say that it is the
worse drifted snow that they have
ever seen here, but at this writing the
roads are being opened, and the
merry jingle of the sleigh bell is
heard.
Our village has been rather dull
since the departure of Hilbert Bros,
but is being somewhat enlivened up
again by other mechanics who have
taken their places.
Messrs. Berry & Long have been
dealing in stock, and shipped few
days ago fine carload for the east
ern market.
1t has been rumored that the S. V.
r. r. expect to erect depot at this
place, which is certainly badly need
ed, especially at this season of the
year. At times the passenger trains
ara several hours behind time and
passengers have to stand in the cold
waiting their arrival, and if such is
the case. the people generally will
have something to be justly proud of.
Seyera! of our ladies who have been
attending school at the Hagcrstown
Female Seminary came home to spend
their holidays. Several parties were
given in their behalf while here, thus
trying to make their stay at home as
pleasant as possible. They have
now returned to their school.
Messrs. f. Brugh, of Hagerstown;
and Fl. and @. Stouffer, Of Point of
Rocks, Md visited friends and rel
atives in. this neighborhood during
the holiday season.
The sons of Mr.. A. II. Wither-
spoon, who are at present in Penn
sylvania, one attending school and
the other teaching, were also home
spending their holidays.
The Ripon Graded School is pre-
pairing for an entertainment which
will be given some time next month.

Il is especially called to the provisions of

ECZEMA !-Eczcma is one of the
uglicst and most troublesome of all
blood diseases. 1t proceeds from
humors in the blood which arc some
times very difficult to eradicate. For
five weary years Mr.. j. D. Rodefer,
of GrecndaIe, Va, suffered terribly
from this disease. He writes: ''Find-
ing no relief in the many medicines
till 1 used Browns Iron Bitters, l
purchased three bottles from the use
of which | have obtained almost en-
tire relief. I recommend it to every
one in my neighborhood for any dis
order of the blood rs 4 general tonic"

No matter how wrong Senator Ed
munds may be on other subjects, that
he is right on the subject of woman
suffrage is not doubted by anybody
possessed of plain, practical, common
sense. He says that g when the ma
jority of the women of the country
desire to vote he will support them,
but that at present he thinks society
better without a union of home and
politics. We agree with the Alex
andria Gazette, that when the mothers,
wives and daughters of America shall
be seen at election polls, the end OF
the existing form of government will
not be far off.

The Legislature in 1881 passed
what is known as =" The Alternative
Road Law" which the voters of any
county could adopt ut a general cleo
ton. In 1884 jefferson county
adopted this law. A marked change
in the method of managing the roads
under this law is the assessment of
S1.00 head-tax against every male in
habitant twenty-oneyears old, instead
Of requiring them to work upon the
roads The charter of the town of
Charlcstown, amended and re-enacted
in 1872, distinctly exempts its inhab-
itants from taxation for ordinary
roads, in consideration of the town
keeping its own streets in order; the
general law also seems to exempt all
towns on the same principle. The
County Court, however, had the as
SCISSORS charge this tax against the
people of the town as well as the
country. AS result of this the
Town Council, at it's last meeting,
directed that the corporation attor-
ney, Mr.. S. W. Washington, should
take the necessary legal measures to
relieve the taxpayers of the town of
this burden, and protect them in
their chartered rights.

Joined by Judge Raymond, Gov.
Jacob B. jackson and Judge John
.Brannon, and all succeed in securing
seats in the Legislature, the caucus to
nominate candidate for q. S. Sen
ator to succeed Mr.. Camden would be
very interesting meeting. Unless
we are mistaken in the signs of the
times, there is going to be some
politics" in West Virginia this year.

" jackson Memorial Associa-
tion," Lexington, Va.

The ladies Of Lexington and Rock
bridge county propose to hold a ba-
zaar during the first week in February,
1886, to assist the jackson Memorial
Association in raising the means to
erect monument at the grave of
Stonewall Jackson. Their utter
inability to mark suitably his last
resting place has lain long and
heavily upon the community, whose
unaided efforts are simply impossi-
BILE.
New Orleans has nobly taken the
lead in monuments to the iliuStrious
dead. Elsewhere there is no separate
and distinct monument to Gen. Il. j.
Jackson's memory, except the bronze
statue in Richmond, which was the
gift of several Englishmen.
This fact not only warrants. but
urges an appeal to all who would
honor this man that lived and died to
do his g Duty"
Help will be welcome in any form
most convenient to the donor-money,
provisions, produce, fancy articles,
and indeed anything that art and
industry can offer, will be greatly
received and faithfully appropriated
to an object which commends itself
to every thoughtful and feeling heart.
