Chamber of Commerce.

| The regular meeting of the Chamber OF
| Commerce was held last night The meeting
was more largely attended and greater inter
est taken in the affairs of the Chamber than
| for many months.
In taking the chair as President, Capt Thos.
D. Ransom spoke at some length on the pos
sbilities of the Chamber in the upbuilding of
the City's commercial interests, and urged
those present to use earnest efforts to further
its purposes and make its work more benefi-
cial than ever before.
He suggested that a room be secured in
which to hold the meetings of the Chamber,
and which could be used as a repository for
its books and publications, many of which
are very valuable, and which would also serve
as place in which to exhibit samples of ores,
minerals, &C., to show to strangers and others
who may visit our City.
He also suggested that weather-reports be
obtained and flags displayed as in Richmond
and other cities.

Baldwin WAvt.

Friday week, Baldwin Wayt, the elder son
of DR.. Newton Wayt of this City, who is
studying medicine at the University Of Vir
ginia, came home to spend a visit. In few
days after his arrival he was quite unwell, in
fact critically i'll, and finding that a difficult
surgical operation was necessary, DR.. Hunter
Mcclure of Richmond was summoned, who,
on Thursday night, assisted by the physicians
of this City, performed it, removing part of
one of the'intestines. Without the operation,
death was inevitable; and even with it, but
a slight chance of recovery but it was wise to
take that chance, and it is hoped that he will
recover, but it is too soon yet to determine
He seems to be doing as well as could be eX-
pected, and hopes Of his recovery are enter
tanned. He is a most worthy and promising
young man, and great interest is felt in his
fate, and deep sympathy for himself and fam
lily in his very critical condition, with earnest
prayers for his recovery.
P S. Since the above was put in type, We
have learned, with sorrow, that his condition
is less favorable, and fears of fatal result are
greatly increased.
Fer all arrangements of the throat and
lungs, Ayers Cherry Pectoral is the speediest
and most reliable remedy. Even in the adj
vanced stages of Consumption, this wonderful
preparation affords great relief, checks cough
ing, and induces sleep.

ALL LINES.
Correspondence Of the SPECTATOR
BUENA VISTA, RoCKBRIDGE Co. VA. Z
March 9th, 1892.
Not during the past six months has there
been week of more animation here than the
one closed to-day. The strangers present were
principally from manufacturing centers of
the interior Of Pennsylvania.
Buena Vista, as some of its first m:nu-
featuring plants were put down, was not free
from the mistakes that have more largely
prevailed at some other new places-to secure
regardless of cost and proper economy, in
dustrial establishments that could not be
profitably run, especially when some, at least,
of the operating talent and experience was
not of the character essential to success
These mistakes wherever made must of ne
cessity have their day of setback to adjust the
situation prior to real live progress This
view of the situation generally, fits but one
property here. and that is the very eXcelently
equipped paper mills now about through
with the tutilage, which brings with it ample
capital and new administration the proper
experience and the acuteness and tact in that
branch of manufacturing pursuits required in
degrees of superiority above almost any
other of the departments of making and sell
ing the products of artisan skill.
Mr.. John w. Blackburn, well and favor
ably known as a business man to many
readers of the SPECTATOR, took charge of the
affairs of the paper-mills at the suspension OF
work there, and it can, think, be safely an
nounced, that be will bring the establishment
through On the new basis as indicated above
The Pennsylvanians, about ten in number
referred to, combining in themselves all the
named requisites, were here particularly with
the view of closing the negotiations which
had been maturing between Mr.. Blackburn
and themselves, as well as to become further
identified with progress at Buena Vista.
The iron interests, both in producing pig
iron and its manufacture on an enlarged
scale, had the attention of other parties tina
were here this week. Mr.. Clarence NJ. Clark
of Philadelphia, already associated in larg
enterprises here and in Virginia and tn
South, becomes again, after a years respite

An Indiana correspondent writes to
the st. Louis Globe-Democrat: A
farmer digging well near his house
at Darlington has discovered that his
dwelling was built over the remains OF
a huge mastodon. He has discovered
about 10 feet of the tusk, but has stop
ped excavating in the sandstone for
fear of endangering his house. Scien-
fists who have visited Darlington to in
vestigate the discovery estimate that
the tusk must be about IS feet long,
and the whole skeleton so feet long
and Is to 20 feet high. A small chip
from the tusk was sent to Il New York
