The Roanoke s. southern Railroad.

During the past week surveyors of the r.
& s. road have been busy locating the line
around the city, and everything seems to be
moving along in a rapid and satisfactory
manner. Fourteen miles ofthe road from
Martinsville, Va, to the North Carolina
line have been LET to Messrs. Breen & Feely,
contractors, of Alexandria, Va, work upon
which will commence at once. As soon as
the surveying is completed the directors
state that work will commence at the Win
ston end. Hands are to be placed all along
the line, as the contractors have made
arrangements to commence grading at
Madison, Rockingham county, and have
already rented factory at that place to be
used for stockade It is said that the road
will run directly by three mica mines, a
tin mine, an iron mine, and over rich coal
field in the short distance between Ridge
way and Madison.
Let the good work move forward

The PrincipaIship OF the S. f. A. TRANSIT


The PrincipsIshp OF the S. f. a. Transfer
red.
THE SENTINEL stated last week, as it
learned, just at the hour of going to press,
that Rev. Edward Rendthaler, d. D. had re-
signed the principalship of the Salem Fee
male Academy TO go into effect May LIST.
The following circular, directed to THE
SENTINEL, which was issued on the 18th
inst, shows that the Principalship has been
transferred to Rev. John FL. Clewell. DR..
Rondthaler's withdrawal was occasioned by
his desire to give his whole time to church
work. The circular speaks for itself:
"In the summer of 1884, in time OF
emergency, DIR. Rondthaler, Pastor of the
Salem Moravian Church, undertook the
Princlpalship of the Salem Female Acade-
my, with the understanding that at some
favorable time, the Assistant Principal,
Rev. John H. Clewell, then likewise APP
pointed, should enter upon the Office. 1t
has pleased God 50 greatly to bless their
Joint efforts that this favorable time seems
now to haye arrived.
With the full and cordial consent of the
Board of Trustees, DR.. Rondthaier now
| transfers the Principalship of Salem Fe-
male Academy to Mr.. Clewell, the transfer
to take place May LIST, 1888.
DIR. Rondthaier will still remain in inti-
| mate and official connection with the insti
tuition, giving to it the time and labor
which his other varied and important du-
ties permit.
We trust and believe that in this new
arrangement the Academy will continue tc
| enjoy the marked favor of God and the CO
| operation of its many friends and patrons.
After May LIST, 1888, official correspond
| ence will be addressed to Principal of Sa
| lem Female Academy.
