Mr.: EnIToR,-" Have we plagiar-
ist among us?" asks your literary crit
ic in your last issue. What a mouth
full the word ''plagiarist" is-it ought
to be stuffed and set upon a pedestal
as warning to everyone not to
breathe the fresh pure air of heaven
lest it should have been inhaled be-
fore. Or, the word might be- substi
tuted for "truly ruraP' as the test for
the extent of ones indulgence in that
which biteth like a serpent and sting
eth like an adder. Seriously. Acorn"
had no intention Of apnropriating an
others words in his story Of the Luc-
ciole in the Sun of July 2Sth. He not
only told it as a legend, but gave the
compositor all the necessary quota
ton marks also. Ny verbs and their
subjects are not always made to agree,
and so I have nightly visitation
from the spirit of L. Murray, Esq.,
in consequence-"Oh, that mine enc
my would write bookw Neverthe-
less, "Acorn," like Montaigne, Moliere,
Shakespeare and others, reserves the
right to reconquer his own wherever
he finds it, and he has been known to
say, ''Confound the one who says our
best things first" Truth and fancies
belong to him who can assimulate
them. There is very little that can
be said that is new. The best that
can be done is to say the old things
with new gladness. Even the Lords
prayer is a piece Of patchwork, all the
sentences of which being found in
literature that preceded it. However
the pretty legend of Ouida is as well
known among readers as the alpha
bet, and can doubtless be traced to
those charming stories in mythology,
Of which "The Sun and his beloved,
the Dawn" is sample. I am pleased
to know that you have admirers Of
Ouida in your midst. Many of her
sentences are rare jewels and insist
upon remembrance. There is hope
for even Morris. What matters it to
the world, some one says, whether you
or [ or another did such a deed or
wrote such a book, if the deed and
the book were we'll done? Next,
Acorn,

The Storm Last Friday Night.

The storm which visited this section
on Friday night of last week did inn
mense damage to the grain crop in
different parts of the county. In
some places the hail cut down and
ruined the wheat, oats and barley,
and in others the grain was beaten
down and badly lodged by the wind
and rain.
Below we give only partial list of
the sufferers, gathered from farmers
we happened to meet on the street:
A good deal of damage was done
in the town of Everglade. Mr.. Ian
berg had 100 acres of wheat destroyed
and several OF his neighbors were
equally unfortunate.
In the towns Of Scott and Darnen
the damage was heavy. Linsley, Con-
roy, Walker, Peterson, Pillen, Mrs.
Pagan, John Sanders P. Il. Casey, E.
". Randall and L. Brittendal had
crops damaged-somo of them only
slightly while others, Sanders, Brit
tendau, Church and Mrs. Pagan lose
about half their crops. Thos. Golden
of Scott had his barn blown down.
c. X. Light, r. j. Hall, Chas. Win
termute and otheIs in tho town of
Morris had crops damaged, princi-
pally by being blown down and badly
lodged
w. D. Smith of Stevens had half
of his crop OF wheat destroyed, and
he informed us that many other farm
ers in that town suffered quite as Sc
verely as himself.
About Chokio, we hear, the damage
to crops was particularly severe, the
grain in that vicinity being almost
totally destroyed.
We learn that out in Swan Lake
township the Zahls, Trantow and sew
oral others had their crops damaged
severely.
In Rendsville good deal of dam s
'ge was done, S. B. Smith, r. Kee- {
han and McCanney being among the {
sufferers.
In the town of Donnelly the storm ,
vas quite severe. We are sorry to
lear that our friend Col. Taisey will {
lave 60 acres less wheat to thresh {
han he expected. 7
tits undoubtedly true that in nearly 6
very town in the county more Or less t
Iamage was done to the crops, either k
y hail Or by the wind and rain. S

The sale of harvesters in this city
the present season has been immense
much larger than any previous
season, as also has been the sales Of

T. A. Callahan has sold 10 Buckeye

or eight more if he had the 7-foot cut
instead of the 6-foot. He has ten on
hand, which may sell before the close
Of the season. This is the first year
that the Buckeye has been on sale
here, and under the circumstances
Mr.. Callahan's sales have been large.
House & Munro had sold up to
yesterday "a Mccormick harvesters;
four more were to arrive yesterday,
which they will sell, making 68 ma
chimes sold this year. This firm has
also sold So Mccormick mowers, and
more threshing outfits than any two
previous years. They have had nine
men employed setting up machinery,
working day and night.
S. Stewart has sold 40 Deering har-
vesters, and was busy yesterday set
ting up more which had been en-
gagged.
F. E. Newell has sold Al Pianos,
and will sell more if he can get them.

1t is safe to say that over 200 har-

year. That's business some, at least.

We doubt if there ever was a

it has this season. Farmers have
told us that wheat which was too
green to cut one day, would within
twenty-four hours be suffering for
want of being harvested. Consequent

For the SPECTATOR
Expenditures for Roads.

North River gives expression to the feel
ing which was anticipated when it was pro-
posed to borrow S180,O0O, and commence the
work simultaneously in various parts of the
county. But the objection lay that it would
involve heavy debt and payment of princi-
pal, interest salaries and commissions
amounting to $500, 0O0-that there were risks
attending the handling of so much money at
once by fewlpersons. The recent defalca-
tons in Philadelphia and elsewhere were full
of admonitions. 1t was thought safer to leave
the county free of debt and 'pay as we 60"
All want good roads; but we cannot have
them and keep our money and work also.
North River is a very interesting district and
must have help. The Middlebrook road has a
'friend at court, and get the first "grist at the
mill" If the county cannot stand payment
of $4,000, she can STOP or reduce the amount;
or resume when better able. But if S1S0,000,
in county bonds were sold, there could be no
looking back or stopping. The payment
could be enforced by the courts. Staunton
intends to have McAdam roads leading into
town and the country people will do well to
adopt the safer mode of paying for it. The
proposed mode will give time to see and learn.
If any calamity befall the county, she will be
out of debt and can stop. If the burden prove
too great, she can raise the question of legali-
ty of the proceeding
The time may come when Staunton will be
so loaded with debt and taxation that many
of her people will prefer to live in the county
out of debt There may compromising ad-
