this season, a plug grade OF dark. OF
unfired sun or air-cured leaf, for which
open barns are used. There is no grade
OF tobacco that measures more in value
on this market, according to texture,
color and flavor, than does sun cured.
Many a time a pile starts at six or eight
cents, and as the bidder discovers that
it mas one or more merits for fine plug
it may run up in the teens, or. even in
the twenties; aroma, color and texture

The fir moi Butler & Bosher, of this
City, has again secured the contract for

I; In its issue Of this week the Southern
HChurchman, referring to the common exc
preston that preachers sons are Dad
sons, says in part: There is an
old sheer. grown so old and :lo.,ry
z in the service OF falsehood that many
tl1oughtless people are deceived by it,
viz. the tatenlent about preachers
sons, going wrong and being somewhat
notorious for badness. Every commune
ty has full proof to the reverse Of this,
but every community seems to think IL
self exceptional in this respect Ind ed
every man who knows arys hing of min
isters' sons knows perfectly we'll that as
z a class they stand peculiarly high in
every calling. of life. "
The Churchman also says edi-
stor,slly that there is a fltur,
for rural Virginia. aud that the
ti!e OF population that has been tend
ing to the cities for number of years
past will have its reaction. For this
reason the Churchman believes that the
old churches which have stood since Col
onia1 days and that have been so long
vacant in many places will yet be need
ed and should be kept in good repair It
is suggested that Colonial church guilds
be formed for the collection Of money for
repairs and that special services be held
in the summer by a number of clergy
men, invited for the purpose.
