We have just returned from the
Northern markets, and it gives us
pleasure to call attention to our new
stock, which is daily arriving. In no
previous season have the markets
shown such a bewildering display Of
novel and beautiful designs. Indeed,
art, stimulated to its utmost by the
prizes offered to success, has done its
utmost for the manufacturer, setting
it's seal Of beauty side by side with the
stamp Of labor. Naturally so large a
variety Of goods offers wide feldfor
the exercise of buyers taste and Judge
ment, and with all due modesty be it
said) we never opened for display, Or
exposed for sale stock Of goods Of
whose worth we felt more genuine
confidence, or OF whose powers Of
pleasing we were more pleasantly
assured. We have endeavored to pur
chase with special reference to the
wants Of our own trade, such class Of
goods as shall best satisfy our custom
ers and sustain our reputation as reli-
able jewelers..

Nineteen Preachers in One Family.

The Lynchburg Virginiam has the fol-
lowing paragraph about the multiplicity of
preachers in one family, which is correct
as far as it goes, but it should 60 further.
On questioning Capt. 0. R. Funsten Of the
D., D. q b. Institution, who is q brother
of the minister of that name mentioned by
the Virginian, he informed our represen-
tative that in the Funston family, includ
ing the brothers and cousins, there are
nineteen ministers! Our Lynchburg CO.
temporary says:
Among the new ministers sent out by the
late Virginia Conference in this city, was the
Rsy W. b. Jet, who goes to Westmoreland
county. Rather strange to say, Mr.. Jet has
brother, who is also minister in the Episco
pal church, having been assistant rector OF
Epiphany church at Danville. Va, but now
in charge of the Episcopal churches at Wood
stock and Mt jackson. The Rev. r. G. Jett,
the Episcopal minister, was recently married
to Miss Annie Funston of Albemarle county.
The officiating minister was the Rev. r. Allen
Castleman, a brother-in-laW of the bride, as
sisted by the Rev. James B. Funston, broth
er of the bride, and the evangelist for South
west Virginia Miss Funston has also anoth-
er sister, who is married to a minister, max
ing FIVE preachers in the two families.

This is a most improving institution and
every young man in Staunton ought to be-
long to it. There is no better school in
which to acquire self possession and readi-
mes in speaking and debating, as we'll as
familiarity with the general rules which
regulate parliamentary bodies and public
gatherings.
A debating society was organized
in Staunton about fifteen years ago and
flourished for several winters, meeting
regularly in the old Y. M. e. A. rooms in
the then Granger building now the city
Opera House. Among the young men then
just starting in life were quite a number
who have become prominent i'll public af-
fairs; among them two congressman, Hon.
Jacob Yost and Hon. II. st. G. Tucker;
two who have been called to the bench,
Judge J. NJ. Quarles and Judge Jno. W.
Stout; q State Senator, Hon. Edward
Echols; two prosecuting attorneys, M. f.
White and A. G. Gordon, and some who
havesince moved away and made their mark
among strangers, or passed over the river.
The lively tilts between Tucker, Echols
and Yost are especially remembered. The
room was often full of spectators of both
sex and it was there that these gentlemen
first attracted public attention as speakers,
a field in which they have since acquired
reputation.
