Death Of Hon. VIM. Mines.

Hon. VIM. Mines, proprietor of the
Gem Furnace, and other iron interests
in Page county, died at his residence at
Mines, on the night of the 18th, aged 81
years. For several years past he had
been in failing health, and his death was
not unexpected. He was prominent
iron man, and operated the furnace of
which he had been manager, with sue
cess for number of years. He met with
serious financial misfortunes during the
depression in business, and especially in
the iron trade, since 1878, yet until his
health failed he was actively and ener-
getically engaged in material develos-
ment, and promoting the welfare of the
Commonwealth. He was liberal with
his means, especially in church matters,
contributing largely to every call for
the advancement of religious interests
In 1870 he was elected to Congress from
the Harrisonburg district, but that kind
of life did not suit him, and he declined
the use of his name for reelection. He
was practical in his political views, re-
cognized protection as the true policy
for Virginia, and as frequently voted
with the Republicans as the Democrats.
as he thought duty directed He was
very popular and universally esteemed.

Torres was stone dead; ana leaving MN
where he lay at the foot of a tree, we hur-
ried on to the creek and reached the boats in
safety.
The Arabs must have been in close pursuit.
for a heavy fire greeted us from shore as We
rowed out to the gunboats A few rounds
from a small cannon, however, soon drove
the enemy back.
Before night we were gliding under full
steam down the creek, for my orders were
imperative and admitted of no delay, much
as would liked to have punished the Arabs
The Racer at once organized an expedition
to start inland from the coast, for was sat
isfied that slave station existed in the vicin-
ity. While the preparations for this were
going on, an Arab dhow was captured at the
very mouth of Vannas creek. which, TO my
surprise, proved TO have on board the rem
nant of Zuba's friends. More than half had
either persisted in the fight or still remained
in the hands of the Arabs.
OF Zuba never heard MORE but l always
regarded the death of Torres and of CASTILLO,
who had caused all these misfortunes by their
iastardly treachery, as just retribution for
their crimes. William Murray Gravdon in
