Gone to Her Rest.

Miss Sallie Virginia, daughter OF
Benjamin T. Hook, died at her home
on Cowpasture River, at 5 o'clock,
p. M, on Tuesday, Feb. list. She
had been in delicate health for
many months, lingering upon the
very verge of the grave; and while
her death was not surprise, it
brings sorrow to the many hearts
of those who knew and loved her.
Life was very dear to Ger and she
chung to it with a tenacity pecul-
lar to herself, yet, while loath to
leave the loved ones and pleasant
home, when the hour Of dissolu-
ton drew near. she babe her fami-
" an affectionate farewell, commit
ted her soul into the hands of
God, and, in the triumphs of a liv-
ing faith, she passed to that realm
where there is no more sickness,
sorrow or signing and where the
consumptives hectic flush is ex-
changed for the radiance Of i'm
mortality.
Thus has the death angel paid
his first visit to this happy home,
and we extend to the bereaved fam
lily our sincere sympathy and pray
that God may sanctify to their
good this sad dispensation Of His
providence. H.

6. B. Rexrode passed through

corn sold in one day on Back Greek
This corn goes to Pocahontas coun-

of the fact that Highland has dis
covered that there is more money
in having grain to sell over and
above home consumption than IN
having to buy from year to year.

Maj. Christman, Of Rockingham
county, in company with MIR. -
Ford, a civil engineer lately engag-
ed in surveying railroad in South
America, was guest Of the Cum
ningham House Sunday night.
They are surveying route for a
railroad extending from Cumber-
land, Md, to Covington. Va. The
portion of this line from Franklin,
w. Va, to Moorefeld has been
surveyed recently and the question
now under consideration by Mr..
Ford is which will be the better
route to select after leaving Frank
lin-the one which has beGn sur
veyed up the Thorn thence down
the Bull Pasture; or keep the
South Branch valley up to the di-
vide at this place and then down
Jackson's River to COvington.
Maj. Christman says the point in
favor of the Doe Hill route is that
the divide at that point is 400 feet
lower than Monterey, but on our
behalf we say that certainly the
practical eye Of a skilled engineer
will at once conclude that this is
the most practicable route for sew
eral reasons not necessary to be
enumerated here.

It is the custom of some news
papers to make yearly mention OF
the ground hog and his character
as weather prophet. Let it suffice
for us to say, that the ground hog

that it is our opinion that
