Washington and Alexandria, and was
favored, with his small boy, devoted
fisherman, to attend President Cleve-
lands noon-day reception. To all who
were present the chief magistrate was
truly most genial. We can never fail
TO recall with pleasure the hospitality
of our friends, DR.. and Mrs. Bedford

E. S. Leadbeater and Lawrence Wash.

with DR.. Hugh NcGuire-a name ip
Virginia the inspiration of medical and
surgical science. We are pleased to
know that DIR. Brown has received the
appointment as delegate to the Pan
American Medical Congress which
meets in November in the City of Mex
leo, and that his co-worker, DIR. Nc
CURE, has already achieved q name
and local habitation in the good old city
of AleXandria as prominent medical
practitioner.
During the week here among other
local events has been the assignee's
sale of Mr.. j. S. Fosters stock of
goods at our depot. A most enjoyable
musicale and entertainment, was given
by Miss NJ. r. Roszel at 'Shelbourne
Hall" The music, both piano aud
vocal, was excellent and rarely surpass-
ed. Miss Roszel, the instructress of a
pupils of Marshall, Middleburg and
vicinity, was accorded all praise for ac
complishing so much by her untiripg
zeal in behalf of the young ladies OF our
community. Among pieces performed
we recall piano solo, Miss Kate Peytor;
duet, Misses Horner and Roszel; piano
solo, Miss Lena Ramev; Minuet, pad

mes day, the 10th, which, as it
has ever been the occasion
of most enjoyable reunion of crowds
of people from far aud near this time,

barracks for the future to the Warren.
ton Sulphur Springs. Among the
speakers we were favored to
listen to speeches from were
Judge Fields, of Chicago, Ill.,, Cadet

another on the death of nihilism in
Russia. Major McIntyre brief in his
address expressed thanks to the faculty,
students and kind patrons of the Acsd
emy for their most unfailing support cf
the best interests of the academy All
enjoyed the performance OF the Beale
ton band and the military drill of Com
panies A and B, the former winning the
colors this time. Maj. Canty, gallant
son of the Palmetto State, is every inch
a superior officer. There was Geal Of
fun to witness the impromptu drill of
about 40 of the old boys, headed by
