Compliment to a Staunton Speaker.

The Christiansburg, Montgomery Mes
semger has the following high compliment
to citizen of Staunton who spoke there last
week. Those who have heard Mr.. Harri-
sons efforts here, will fully endorse the
high compliment which comes to him
from abroad. There were about six huA-
bred people present, and the Messenger
says:
Capt. j. R. johnson, after appropriate re
marks, introduced Geo. NJ. Harrison, ESQ.,, of
Staunton, az the first speaker OF the day. MI
Harrison came before us a stranger, but it
only required few moments for him to in
gratiate himself with the people as Virgin
ian of exalted patriotism, and therefore one
OF us, thoroughly identified with us in all
that pertains to the maintenance of Virginia S
honor and the development of her great and
boundless resources. As be progressed with
his speech, he convinced his hearers that he
was a gentleman of marked ability and
thoroughly posted in every detail of the can
vass. 1t is rarely that we have listened to a
speech more replete with solid facts, convinc-
ing argument and earnest and patriotic appeal
to the voters than that delivered by Mr. Har-
rison. 1t was an able, solid argument, having
nothing in the way Of fippant anecdote to
please his auditors OF clap-tTap to catch pop
ular applause. 1t is needless to say that those
who patiently listened to him were most fa-
vora bly, impressed and we are convinced that
his effort will bear good fruits on the 9Th
instant.

Death of DR.. A. H. Weir.

DR.. A. H. Weir, who for six years had
been an efficient assistant physician at the
w. L. Asylum, died at his home in Rock
bridge, Oh Tuesday morning last, in his
forty-fourth year. He had been in failing
health for some months, and about two
months ago was given a furlough in
order to take a rest, which it was hoped
might go far to restoring him. During the
civil war he was member of the 18th Va.
cavalry, and at it's close studied medicine
and was graduated at the University of
Virginia. He was a brother of Mrs. Hugh
F. Lyle Of this county. Dr.. Weir had pecu-
liar qualifications for the post he had SO
satisfactorily filled at the Asylum. He was
well equipped in his profession, had kind
ly and considerable disposition, and was con-
scientious in the discharge of his duties.
His funeral took place Tuesday at the family
seat in Rockbridge, where he died, and was
attended by delegation from Staunton
Lodge A. F. and A, NJ. No. 10, of which he
was member.

Tree Planting at the Park,

A large number of citizens visited the
City Park Friday to witness the planting
of l 800 trees there. The Stonewall Brigade
Band was there and so were the bright and
neat looking children Of the public schools,
who made the day holiday. The area of
land which already had roads cut, and now
has its trees planted, will in time be d credit
to the city. The park idea and it's consum-
nation is greatly due to the liberal and
progressive views of Capt. John McQuaide
and MI. W. P. Tams, and we would sug-
gest to these valuable members Of the city
government that if they would now direct
their attention to acquiring the use of the
Fair grounds On fair terms, we will have a
prettier park than any town of the size in
Virginia

He had been in failing health for some time,
