A Railroad Meeting.

On next court-day, Tuesday
August 81, there will be meeting
Of the citizens Of Highland county
to consider railroad matters. Con
e. C. Machen, now at Harris On
burg, the promoter of the Chesa-
peake & Western railroad. will be
here to meet and to tall! to our
people and We hope there will be a
large attendance. The question OF
securing a railroad through High
land is one of vital importance to
every man in the county and W.
are satisfied that with the excei
ton of few cranks and moss
backs the probability Of d railroad
running through our county will
be hailed with delight l. is tie
duty and should be the pleasure OF
every epterprising citizen to come
here and offer encouragement to
the road which is now almost
within our reach. We believe that
the opportunity of securing the
road should be taken advantage OF
and it behooves our people to take
prompt AMI definite steps to offer
the proper encouragement. Let
every man in the county look al
the matter from a personal stand
point and come out next Tuesday
and talk Il. r.

Coed Roads Convention.

The Virginia State Coed Roads
Association, with headquarters at
Richmond, has addressed circular
letter to the supervisors Of each
asking them to appoint
delegates to a good roads conven-
ton to he held in Richmond, Get.
40, 1855. Interest in good
roads seems to be growing through
out the State and if Highland
wants to improve her roads she
must keep up with tbs onward
move. We trust cur supervisors
will have the county represented
at the meeting.

West Virginia Lands.

Probably at no time in the his
tory Of the State has there been
such activity in West Virginia
lands. In tie past few weeks thu
State seems to be alive with east
ern capitalists from Pennsylvania,
New York, Maine, New Jersey and
Maryland Also, at the present
writing. Ohio ard Michigan people
are trayersing the Mountain State
streams. All seem to recognize The
fact that in q very short tine these
vast forests Of timber must be fell
ed, conducted to the mills, and
thence sent to every part Of the
globe Hence tie activity to be
tie first on the ground and get the
choice. Many Of these lands ten
or fifteen years ago could have been
bought fo.a song, today is selling
from ten to twenty dollars per
acre. At the period Of it's cheap
ness it was remote and far from
railroads, while at pre- eat time 1t
lies either directly OIL the road or
within easy access to it. Probably
no comfy in the State is more
looked al at present than that OF
Pocahontas, with its beautiful val
leys, and the Greenbrier river. and
It's mountains covered with the TN
est timber of every description.
Now that the Dry Fork railroad IS
all assured fact, which will run
down the Greenbricr 10 Marlinton
thence to the G. & O. r.. r.. calls

Death of rIrs. Isabella Campbell.

Mrs Isabella Campbell, widow
Of the late Samuel b Campbell, dl-
ed 1T her home near Meadow Dale,
Va, Saturday, August II. 1855, at
about 6 O'Clock p. H., il the sixty
sixth year OF her age.
She had been member Of Pts
gah PRESBYTERIAN church for a num-
Der Of years and had been consist
ent in her Christian walk and con-
versation. She had been confined
to her room for two weeks previous
70 her death. Her health had been
delicate fof IL long time, and she
hal realized for some months pre-
yious to her last illness that her
time on earth was short. She was
a great sufferer for the last two
weeks Of her life, and was unable
t. talk much as she drew near her
death, but she expressed her resig-
nation to the viii Of God. She
said that her trust was in her Sa-
yior alone, and that Jesus WAS With
her as she was passing through
the dark valley Of the shadow o.
death. She was laid to rest in the
old Campbell burial ground on Ar.
George Dndley'a place, on last Sab
bath afternoon, IN the presence OF
her relatives aud friends.
Within three months, Pisgah
Church has been called upon to
mourn three Of her daughfers-
First. that fair young bud Of
Spiiug. Miss Lille Gertrude Woods
heard The voice OF Jesus calling iler
mp higher and. turning away from
the bright reckoning fnture Of
earthly seccess that stretched out
/ before her, she laid her hand IN Tie
/ l3Nng hand OF Jesus. ana passed
over tie Jordan into tie fair, sun
Iht Eden beyond. Then came the
call to one who had long ourne the
/ burden in tie heat ol The day, ana
Mrs. Nance Gum, cooking away
from weeping husband and chill
dren, wrapped the drapery OF hel
couch about her and lay down tt
pleasant dreams. Now once more
fond relatives and friends are calico
upon to say farewell to one, vino
they feel assured, IS only gone OF
before to the happy home rot the
blest. One by one the dear one'
are gathering nome As the year
roll away, there are more 4nd more
vacant chairs in every household
and many loved voices are heard n'
lnore on earth forever but thanks b.
unto G)d, beyond the sorrow aut
the weeping here,
There is land Of pure delight,
W here saints IMMORTAL reign;
Infinite day excludes the night,
and pleasures tanish pain.
Could we tut climb Were Moses stood
And view the landscape Ger,
Not Jordan's stream, nor Deaths coli
flood
can fright us from that shore.
