One Of our leading physicians, residing
near Hewletts, who is known as very
ardent champion Of free silver, recently
had financial "object-lesson" given
him. which. he says, If persistently ad-
ministered by his patients. will soon con-
vert him into a rampant gold-bug, and
may cause him TO change his field, and
hang out his single amidst the detested
population OF Wall street. The Doctor,
like many country physicians, does
great deal Of charity practice among
the poor Of both races. The other day
he told one OF these patients-an old col
ored woman. on whom he had pracuced
for years-that he was afraid he had
done about all in his power TO relieve
her. and it would hardly be necessary
for him 10 come 10 see her again.

CAUSED REGRET,

The resignation OF Judge John w. Gill
let from the Office Of Judge OF the County
Court OF Accomac has caused universal
regret. He had held the Office for nearly
seven years, during which time he had
greatly improved the administration OF
Justice I'm this county. He was a terror
10 evil-doers, and his Intimate ac-
quaintance with the people and affairs
OF the county combined with his tofty
Integrity and his profound knowledge OF
the law TO make him an Ideal county
Judge. Certain IL Is that no county ever
had a better one.
The Bar OF Accomac has passed COM
plmentary resolutions on Judge Gillets
administration OF the judicial affairs OF
the county and ordered them TO be
spread on the records OF the court
The selection OF ex-Srate Senator
Blackstone as Judge Gillsts successor
gives great satisfaction here. He IL COM
para,ively a young man, Of fine ability
and high legal attainments. He was en-
dorsed by all the members Of the Acco-
mac Bar.

THE EASTERN SHORE.
A Reduction In Freight Hates-The
Farmers Rejoice.

Farmers helotces
ONANCOCK, VA. August 8-(Special)
The farmers Of the Eastern Shore are
rejoicing over the announcement that
fhe New York. Philadelphia. and Norfolk
railroad has reduced the freight rates
on potatoes from this section to Phila-
deiphia and New York. Heretofore It
has cost the farmers OF the Eastern
Shore 40 cents on every barrel Of potatoes
shipped TO New York. and 30 cents 10
Philadelphia. They can now ship pota-
toes 10 New York for 80 cents a barrel.
and 20 Philadelphia for % cents. This
reduction s. due 10 a movement that S.
y. Nelson, Esq. OF Onancock. started
about three weeks ago among the farm
ers OF AccOmac and Northampton coun-
ties. Last Wednesday MIR. Nelson, State
Senator 10 cato. and Dr. Charles Smith,
member OF the House OF Delegates from
Northampton. went 70 Philadelphia. and
had q conference with Chief Manager
Chlpley. Of the Pennsylvania system. In
consequence Of which the reduced rates
named above were ordered. These gentle
men have returned home and are now
receiving the thanks and congratulations
OF the Eastern shore people.
A GREAT SAVING.
Had this reduction been secured before
the Irish potato crop WAS shipped II y
estimated that the Eastern Shore people
would have saved thereby more than
10000 on this crop alone. As IL Is, the
reduced rates viii stii be worth many
thousands OF dollars 20 tho farmers Of
this section. who are now shipping sweet
potatoes ga great quantities.
This reduction. taken In connection with
the action Of the Baltimore commission
merchants. already mentioned in this
correspondence. Will have the effect Of
6iysrting nearly all the produce Of this
section from Baltimore TO Philadelphia.
New York. Boston. and other eastern
