From the Winchester Times :

Mr.. Jacob Lyder, who has been
quite ill, is in very enfeebled con-
dition. He fell over a lounge one
day last week, breaking two of his
ribs. His age, considerably over so
years, almost precludes the hope OF
his recovery: we trust he may be
spared few years longer.
Rev. II. NJ. White, of the Loudoun
st. Presbyterian church. leaves to.
morrow for New York from which
city he will sail on Saturday in the
steamer Furnesia for Glasgow. He
will be absent about three months
and will travel over most of great
Britain. We trust he may return
home invigorated and restored to
complete health.
Mr.. Peter Becker, aged II years,
died last Thursday at his residence
in Brucetown. He for many years
pursued the business of carpet-weav-
ing, and lived an honorable and up
right life before his fellowmen. He
made all necessary arrangements fol-
his final end and funeral services
some months ago with Capt. e.. w.
Kurtz, undertaken. Selected and
purchased his burial clothes of Mr..
N. Kohn, and chose his pail bearers
at the same time. His funeral was
largely attended. Revs. Strother
and Jones officiating. The deceased
was consistent member of the Re
formed church, and an honored mem
hor NJ tJ,n NIocO1io F-oforn;t,y 4or n
number of years. Interment took
place in SmithfieId, Jefferson county,
w. Va.
The Union Cornet Band and
friends returned from their tour to
Boston and the surrounding towns on
last Tuesday night. The account
they give us of the splendid public
receptions, banquets and entertain
ments rendered them and private
courtesies shown them would fill col
umns of the Times and then the halt
would not have been told. We gave
in our last issue an account of the
entertainment at Lynn. 1t was fol
lowed by handsome set out at PIT.
of Pines. at which place Mayor At
kinson, Prof. John l. II. Baker and
Mr.. John B. Haines made speeches
and were all loudly applauded. AT
the grand labor procession in Boston
on Monday, Sept. End, the Union
band was given a prominent place,
heading the Herald and Globe Typo
graphical Union, composed of over
600 compositors. Mayor Atkinson
riding at head of column on beau
tiful bay steed made a fine appear
ance. After the procession a mag
niffcent banquet was given by the
Typographical Union No. Is, in its
hall, having as prominent guests
Mayor Hart, of Boston, and Mayor
VIM. NJ. Atkinson, of Winchester,
Va. Plates were laid for $50 per-
sons. 1t is said that the speech of
our worthy M;Nor on this occasion
was the best OF the many that he was
called upon for during the trip

A Clever Retort.

The New Orleans Times Democrat
retorts very cleverly upon Mr.. George
w. Cable and other equally critical
and uniformed persons who berate
the Southern people for their failure to
educate the negroes. 1t shows that
the average payment for school pur-
poses in proportion to property is
greater in the South than in the New
England or Middle States. The mon
ey for schools is nearly all contributed
by the whites. For example. Penn
syIvania pays 80 cents on the 500
for school purposes, while the South
averages 80 cents per S1O0-Virginia
paying 46 cents per s1oO; Florida,
80; Arkansas, 60; West Virginia, 81 !;
Missouri, CO; Mississippi, 60. When
the impoverishment of the Southern
people at the end of the war is con-
sidered, the fact that they have since
contributed $4,000, 600 for negro
education should serve to blunt the
edge of hostile criticism.

A Buffalo special says that spirit
ualism has received a black eye from
which it will hardly recover. At the
house of Mrs. L. A. Laid, on Mag
ara street, two of the leading me-
diums of the country, Mr.. and Mrs.
Cobb, have for some time been stop
ping as guests, having been invited
there directly after the close of the
four days meeting at Corsadage
Lake. Mrs. Ladd is not spiritual
list, but she was greatly attracted by
the novelty of their manifestations
natably by lace-making spirit gen
Grated by Mrs. Cobb, which carried
all hearts by storm. Numerous Buff
faIo mediums had either seen or
heard of this spirit, and there was
the liveliest kind of curiosity mani
tested on every hand to see it. At
last Mrs. Cobb consented to give a
manifestation of the spirit, and the
dark circle was arranged at the house
Friday evening. Among about TWEEN
ty who we're present were william Ba-
ker, a well-known photographer,
with a Kodak camera, flash light
and accompanied by John Vincent,
detective. Mrs. Cobb entered the
cabinet and was bound hand and
foot. Then the spirit appeared and
began weaving luminous lace, where
upon there was a flash, a shrek, a
struggle and the cabinet was knocked
completely over, the lights were
turned on and Vincent was found
seated amid the ruins clasping Mrs.
Cobb, who was dressed in nothing
but mosquito netting and had lu-
minous string of phosphorescent
Hamburg in her hands. A dummy
lay in ruins beneath them. The COM
pany contained few genuine spirit
ualists, but all were equally wild
with Indignation of the fraud and
the two were not released till they
had signed statement confess
ing themselves frauds. Mrs. Cobb
went into commissions, hut was
quickly brought around by magnetic
shock from battery. They belong
in Mentor, Ohio, where they have
now returned.

The Baltimore Ne,cs of Friday
says: The Rev. DIR. John p. Hyde,
of the Valley Female College, Win
chester, Va, is chaplain of the 2nd
Virginia Regiment which has been on
a visit to Baltimore during the week
and taken such creditahle and prom
inent part in all the parades and ma
nGuvres. Chaplain Hyde is Mary
lander by birth, was gallant soldier
during the late war, and was once
carried from the field for dead. He
recovered, however, and his piety,
courage and learning have endeared
him to the people with whom his lot
has been cast. He is now president
of one of the finest female colleges in
the country, but that did not hinder
him from marching yesterday until
he was soaked by the rain.

Mr.. Geo. C. Round, of Prince
William county, Va, an original Re-
publican and on one occasion the Re-
publican nominee for Congress in
his district, has published card an
nouncing that he will not support
General Malone and declares for Nc
Kinney, Tyler and Scott. He says
General Malone has stolen the Re-
publican name to betray Republican
principles. Mr.. Round also SAYS:
''No one who knows me will accuse
me of any special admiration for the
Lost Cause, except such admiration
as pluck and bravery always compel
from manly hearts. Yet 1 say can
didly, 1 would vote for Jefferson Da-
Wis, if necessary, to defeat William
Malone. For, from my standpoint
of an original Republican, 1 can
plainly see how Malone as Governor
of Virginia, at the present time,
would do infinitely more damage to
true Republicanism than Davis pos
sibly could Col. VIM. MAYO, of
Westmoreland county, also says he
will not support the Malone ticket.
