SEWERS ARE not a savory subject at

Perhaps so. But would it not be better to
keep politics out of the sewers?

Letter from Page.

CORRESPONDENCE Alexandria Gazette
LURAY, Va, Jan. 9.-The cold
weather has given Luray fine quality
of ice, and all the houses are filed. The
Shenandoah river is frozen over save on
the rifles, and there being no bridges
travel from the country on the other
side is somewhat interrupted. Page,
like many other counties, has bad
roads. few bridges and a good road tax.
The roads get no better save for a short
while after their annual working, and
it is a question as to what methods will
be adopted to get the people out of the
old ruts in this very important matter.
No country can be in a condition oftrue
development and possible prosperity
with bad roads. Even the bridge at the
White House, on the road to New
market. is now as the war left it, and
the consequence is that travel from that
point is virtually suspended.
An interesting will case is now pre-
pairing for trial here. Some years ago
Mr.. Brubaker died, leaving will by
which his property was administered
and divided. Lately another will,
wholly in his own writing, has been
found, written on the day of his death,
changing materially the disposition of
his property, and the contest will arise
on the probating of this last paper.
Mr.. John Hunton, hard working
and wealthy Page man living near
Spring Farm, lost his only three horses
ON Saturday last, two dying within
half an hour. The third was a val
liable animal, for which his owner paid
5000. Poison is suspected to be the
cause, but how it got in the feed or
how administered is nos known. Some
suggest that it may have accidentally
been placed for rats in the mill from
which the feed was procured and in
that way got into the feed. 1t is quite
certain the horses died from no natural
cause,
The loss of $1,000 on the home of Mr..
Henry Bradley by fire, which occurred
few days since near Spring Farm, has
already been adjusted by the agent,
Mr.. t. J. Berry Of The Plains, and the
money will shortly be paid.
We are sorry so few GAzETTEs come
to Luray, and whilst it is looked upon
as the best paper in northern Virginia,
the hard times our people have gone
through in the last few years must be
the main cause, in fact the only reason.
We have read its columns for many
wears, and as it gets older like 1t all
the better; and as it nears the centen-
NAL of its history gets all the better.
What a record the GAZETTE has made
in the old state n its long and useful
life, and what a vast parf o. - history
it has become, and now in its age full
of the vigor of youth its future Tor good

to the privileges of the priesthood after
his accommodation for abusing and

he shall go to Rome within three
months and make submission and apol-

could the Doctor agree to such condi-
tons when he is on record as saying,

retracting all I have said, and | will
never take back one jot or title of that.

Like A Romance.
'Hold her head y

Eyes, sir "
The person uttering the above COM
mand was Mr.. p Tolemy, handsome
young man of dark complexion and OF
decidedly aristocratic appearance, VINO
had attracted some attention during the
last week by the splendid rig he drives
around the blue blood quarter.
The liveried lackey, who had sprung
from behind to attend his master and
meekly done his bidding, was Henry
Wilton.
This is the first visit of each to Rhode
Island, but their great-grandfathers
lived here more than century ago,
and then Wilton was the name OF the
master and Tolemy that ofthe servant.
The reversal of their respective So
cial conditions reads like q romance:
Anthony Wilton lived here before
the revolution. He was of good de,
scent, put did not succeed in life until
he took to dealing in rum and slaves
business which laid the foundation OF
the colossal fortunes possessed by many
Rhode Islanders to-day.
Wilton waxed wealthy and made 4
passage to the slave coast ut one time,
when raid was made on negro
village near where Cape Castle Is to-
-dav, and seventy-ive men, women
and youths were shipped aboard VIII
toms SLAYER.
Among the poor wretches stolen
from their homes to be sold Into slavery
was the grcat-grandfather OF Z. Iolc-
nv. the aristocratic young man OF this
story.
This man was such fine specimen
that Mr.. Wilton decided to domesticatt
him and keep him in his own house
hold
All the cargo was disposed OF and
the slave ship returned to Providence
with its owner, who on its arrival went
to church to give thanks to God for his
safe VOYAGE and the success attending
it. He had been elected an elder dur
ing his absence.
The stalwart slave was named Ptol
emv. and he was taught to wait on his
owner at his table, black his boots and
do house chores.
The old elder promised Ptolemy that
some day he would let him go back to
his native land.
In the next generation a son of Ptol-
envy married an octoroon, and in the
next generation son of that son mar
ricd white woman, whose son is the
present p. Tolemy, esq, of Brandt
Canada
This young man inherited a big for
tune, and being to all outward appear
anccs white man, although he boasts
of his African lineage, he has had al
easy and luxurious life.
Some time ago he met Harry Wilton
and learning that he was the great
grandchild Of the Wilton who owned
his great-grandiather, Ptolemy, he wa:
glad to hire Wilton.
Wilton was poor, the old elder;
wealth having disappeared long before
his generation, and he was not toe
proud to hold the horse and touch hi:
hat to q descendant of his ancestor:
slave so long as P. Tolemy paid good
wages.
Tolemy wanted to buy the old Will
ton homestead and have Wilton there
as servant in the halls Of his ances
