AS is known Switzerland is a pOlyslOt
country. German is the language OF about
twc-thirds of its people, those who occupy
the cdBtOnS from Berne eastward. III the
other cantois, French IS the language,
win the exception Of Tessin and part
Of the GriSons, where Italian prevails.
The three languages are equally oHlclaL
and all laws and public documents are
published in each. and either may be used
in the discussions in the national assem-
bly,. In fact. ItnliIn is rarely heard IN

houses are supposed TO understand the
two principles languages, ANA this know

those in the civil service, including post
Office and telegraph employees.
Occasional Inconvenience is experienced
from the difficulty Of making an aOsOiu-
tely perfect translation from one language

cases from time TO time occur where the
official translation of Il law in one IAN

where French is employed.
1t is said that the French language is
gradually encroaching upon the German
across tue line which separates the two
elements Of the population. The French
Swiss explain this by alleging that 1t
is due in part 10 the comparative ease
with which French is acquired, and 10
it's greater clearness and convenience. and
i'm part to the fact that the vernacular
of the German. Swiss is a patOis differing
greatly in the different cantOns, while the
official German is a literary language
and practically a foreign tongue. Ke-
Gently vehement complaints have APP
reared in the GeImanSwiss papers that
the German language is not receiving
fair treatment ut the hands of their
French COnfederateS. 1t Is alleged that

people seem to be- growing ashamed of

the most interesting varieties Of local

neither understand nor speak German.
Bitter complaint is also made of the ac-

Appomattox, Sept. -Special.-Sena-
tor John W. Daniel and Hon. II. George
Tucker will be at Concord depot Satur-
day. The speaking will begin at 10
o'clock. The occasion has been gotten
up by two Democratic clubs i'll this
county.
Speakers from the Third party are
urged to be present and take part in the
discussions. Air. Tucker is putting IN
square licks for Democracy through this
district. His cogent arguments and ring
ing appeals are bearing fruit. Third
partyisn is evidently weakening. Many
will remain in it; however, simply be-
cause they've gone into it.
Two elegant church editices have been
dedicated in this county recently. Bethel
Methodist, Rev J. II. Calhoun, Lynch

ford City, the preacher.
Miss Mamie Garrett living near here,
left her home last Thursday morning,

peared at the parsonage with her al
hanced to be married. The slight parental
objection was soon removed aud the
two were forgiven.

Hanover c. H., Sept. 22.-Special.-
Politics seem to be rather quiet in this
section. While many CT the farmers are
in sympathy with the Third party, n
large majority Of these will vote with the
Democrats. as they see no chance Of the
Third parry being successful.
The relatives of the man killed by the
ears near Ashland some time ago have
been heard from. His name WAS lack.
Stans, Tot Stone as previously reported.
Mrs. f. =. Newman has just COM
pleted dam across the South Anna
river near Ashland. and VIII soon com
mence the construction Of the mill, which
will be fitted with improved roller ma
chinery for wheat.
This is one of the best mill sites in the
county, as there is no other mill near
Ashland that can run in dry weather.
The dam will develop from $50 to 200
horsepower, but the mill will only use n
part of the power.
A force of hands are now at work get
ting out stone at the old railroad
quarry" on the South Anna river. TO be
used for curbing OIL the sidewalks in
Ashland, which are to lie paved soon.

Maryland, where an electric road eight
cen miles long is being run through "A

No matter how muddy the highways are

their loads to the nearest market, and to
bring back their return load when re-
