tSt-MAc—Upwards ot iao,ooo bounds
of Humor hns been sold hero this Fall. Mr.
Snvhek, the purchaser, lias produced a very
good Impression by his unassuming man
ners and prompt, intention l»< bftsincss. He
Is from Philadelphia. Our people will be
glr.d to sec him liere next summer.
Dr. E. SI. SlcMlhran.—We call spe
cial nlletitlon to tho advertisements of our
friend, Dr. E. M. Mi Mi lf.an, Culpepur C.
ill., which will be found In to-day's liaper.—
All wo ask for him Is a single trial. AYe feel
very sure that lie will give fetich thorough
satisfaction that an unlimited series of tri
als will follow the first.
Vai.se Varsovilsne. —Prof. E. L*e
IW..VNTON, of fiordonsvilie, presented OS with
Ihe above piece of music, which is hand
somely printed by Wii.lio, of Baltimore.—
Unable to rend music. We banded il tp a
beautiful bfunetie fiom Mobile, who is an
accomplished pinnlsl, and she, after trial,
pronounced a high ouloglum upon it.
Bio Arn.ES. — Slaj. James W. AValk-
T.n, of Madison, sent us the other day a tot of
Apples, one of which was n monster— weigh
ing twenty ounces. We thought It was a
pippin, but Mrs. llclt., who knows all about
apples, said it was a lady's f-ng-r. What a
digit! The lady must have had elephantia
sis. Thwnk you, Major. Raise some more,
next year, nnd send them lo Ihe I'omologl
i al Fair ut Richmond.
Bloop.—Some days nr/o. as we were
sCing to dinner, we saw, on the roar plat
form of the Depot, two persons In their shirt
sleeves barreling apples. We look theni, nt
first sight, to be Depot hands. A closer view
revealed the fact that they were Ihe sons of
one of the noblest old gentlemen wo ever
knew. The slntUo of their ancestor stands
on the Washington Monument at Richmond.
In a Day ob Two.—The servant of ft
friend of ours, who lives a f w miles from
town, inquired of him on his return from tho
election whether he hud voted.
"Oh, yes, sail, I voted;"
"Well, who did you vote for?"
The negro scratched his head and replied:
'To tell you do truf, Mars Dick, I didnH
hear de name oh de man who I voted for, hut
dey promise faithful for to let mc know in a
day or two!".
Such Is nogro suffrage.
Oca Coirt llot'SE.—A lmiliber ol im
provements are imperatively needed in this
building. The celling should be so altered
as to prevent tho reverberations which so
annoy Judge, Jury and lawyers. Tlie Jury
rooms should be placed In the basement,
where the juiy-'men would not bestifled, nnd
where their conversation would not annoy
the judge, An improvement might be made
In the clerk's seat, anil the stoves so placed ,
that the Jil'dge would derive some benefit 1
from, thoir heat. All of these Improvements
might be marie at a cos_t, ns we hear, of #100. ]
n sum which Ihe county could well afford to !
pay, and by which cverybmly who enters the '
Court House would be greatly benefitted. A j
single word from the potential voice of our
Attorney for the Commonwealth would set
tle the matter.
How to Attract Trade.—Wearctold ,
lhatCutpepei-C.lt. owes its great prosperl- |
ty lo the tact that the merchants there keep
large stocks of goods, and sell leading arti
cles oftradeat theAlexnndrlapric.es as given
In the daily quotations of the PagetSu. In
this way, purchasers are enabled to avoid tho
doublo expense of freight and commissions-.
T hey bring a wagon load of produce to town,
and return with a load of goods. Trade of
this sort always enriches a place, and Cuh
popcr is getting rich as fast, If not faster,
than any Inland town In the Slide. This is
the whole secret. Here at Orange, yve have
not 'so large a bauk"country as Culpeper,
hut we might have much more trading ter- '
rllory than we now hnve. Can our merchants .
take the hint? AVilllheyT Copt. Browning,
what say ?
Benefits of Advebtisi.vi,.—Not long
hgo, w-e stepped Into the store of a friend,
who lives In v neighboring town, nnd asked
lilm how he wax getting along. "Very well,"
said he; "I started here two years ago, with
out capital and unde.l almost every ooncelv
ablo disadvantage, but (the editor of
the County paper,) knowing me and my sit
uation, made up his mind be Insure my suc
cess. He went to work in the pnper, called
everybody's at t cut ion to my business, said as
many kind words as ho could for me, with
out overstepping Ihe mark, and the thing
was done. Ou my part, I did all I could to
deserve the kind words that were said about
me and exel led myself to please my friends .
and neighbors by honest' dealing nnd fait h
ful attention to business ; that's the whole
Secret." We pondered on his last words, as
w.i walked away from his store, and deter
mined to put them down for the benefit of
other merchants.
A. P. Roctt's Coi.cmn—The advance
guard of A. P. Routt's column of advertise
ments will be found in the appropriate place.
He Is the boldest advertiser we have, the
most Ingenious man In Piedmont, Virginia,
and the only representative from our part of
the Slate in the late Fairs, Sue tho result In
Ihe following official announcement:
"Rockbridge Agricultural Fair, Lexington,
A'a., October, 1567. Awarded lo A. P. Routt,
of Orango County, A'a., premium on best
corn planter; premium on best double
shovel plough, and premium on best dough
kneader."
" Border State Agricultural Fair, Danville,
Va., Noveiribcr, Ihkt, awarded to A. P. Routt,
bf Liberty. Mills, Va., Premit'm on best Corn
Planter, Premium on best Drain Plotigh, Pre :
lnlnm on best Kneading Device."
Six premiums In two months! That will
Ho prettyVell for our invent ive nnd liberal
t'ountyman, nnd we congratulate him mosl
heartily.
Thb Co>.-FgPER.iTE Deap.-There, arc
some four or five hundred Confederate dead
scattered through this county. The head
boards containing tin ir names arc fustrot
tlnft, and their very graves are being levelled
to the earth by the rains, This ought not
lobe. The remains of the rflen who died in
our defence ought to be gotten b 'get her, and
hurled neatly lnahandsuineU > eel >-l grave
yard, with Iron bead-boards to each grave.
some patriot!,- citizen wll* give enough
ground for tbo cemetery, n.nd by employing
it couple of negro me a, wltn n horse and wa
gon, to devote their whole time to it, the en
tire work of re-lntendeni could he completed
during tho coming summer. If wC put it off
longer It will be too litto The necessnry
money can bo raised by fairs and voluntary
contrltfuliohs. YA'c should remember thai
Hie money thus raised is not taken out of
the county, ns Is tlie casein eirousscfl and
shows, but only changes hands, frequently
i'etnrulng to those who gave It. If any one
,/Vni fiiriii.b u-'tti.- names 'I Hi. .|.a ' of

relatives nnd friends of 1 he de.-eased.
Gk:>. Lxs i.m Oranue—He Pi.ays a
' Practical JoKK.—During the war, GVn.
Leu wits visited by two or threeyoen/ la
dles, one of Whom Was ids daughter. He
, sought and obtained for them oomfOl table
uunrters at the l'endsomti residence or Mr.
II t;d:S- of this plueo. The. same day, or very
shortly afterwards, Mr. Hiiikn observed
some very unusual proceedings In his yard.
A parly of officers nnd men had taken pos
session of It and were es Identry pTeparteg to
hold It permanently. Mr. Buisji'Shouse, Is-
II known, is situated on aoommandinu emi
nence. Al n loss what to «iak« of this sud
den and almost rnde. i.eeujmtioTi of his pri
vate grounds, Mr. llmrtS_ demanded un ex
pia'.i-ii ion from Hen. Lit.':. Looking;at him
very gravely, c.'en. Lee said, "YVlien young
ladles visit camp, they are often excessively
annovort'by the vlslis of young officers. 1
nm determined to put a slop to these visits,
•md slriil hold yob personally respotnUble
loi any violation of my regulations. No one,
upon any pretence whatever, shall visit the
young ladles now al your house—no one but
myself. To protect the ladles from Intru
sion and to Insure pour obedience to my urdn-t
(here (leu. Lf.es vaiee became very stern,i 1
hnve posted this force iv your yard, to re
main day nnd nl&ht, nnd instructed the of
ilccr Id elcircre, lyberirver any genllemuii is
caught In company with tho yonng ladles,
your gucsW, to arrest yourself and every
lvi mber of your family, and to hold them In
arrest until further orders."
Mr. Hiiikn is nvery airtptreTfintlamajl. hut
the idea that Gen. Lee could joke, never en
tered his head, nnd a look of such blank dis
may overspread, his features that the (iener-
Al, pll tying his terror, told him lnughingly
that the men In his yard were only a portion ■
of the Signal Corps, who hud selected that
position because It was Ihe highest In the
surrounding' country, it need scarcely be
Added mat the young ladles had a super-a
bundance of vl.dtors and that Mr. llito.s
was in-vet- arrested.

EXPERIENCE THE GREAT TEACHER.
MRS. J. CROLY (Jennie June) tes
tified :—"I like the Grover A Baker Ma
chine, in I lie first plane, because, if I bad any
oilier, 1 should still want a Grover-* Baker:
and having a Grover & Baker, It answers the
purpose of all the rest. It, dm* a greater va
rlety of work, and it is easier to learn than
any oilier".''
Mm. General Buell testified:—"We nave a
Grover & Baker Sewing machine for seven
years, In constant use, hemming, felling,
tucking, and everything that the Angers can
do. It is preferred over all others on account
of Its durability of work, elasticity anil
strength of stitch, ease of movement, and
simplicity of construction:"
Mrs. A. 0. Foss, wife of the Rev. Archibald
Koss, writes:—l feel It to be both a duty and
a- pleasure to Inform you with what satisfac
tion and success I have worked on tho Gro
ver ti. linker Machine for the past eleven
years. It Is so simple In Its structure that It
is exceedingly difficult to get Itoul of order.
Both of my little girls—one Aye nnd a half
the other four years—can sew straight scums
on it without assistance."
Mrs. Wilson, wife of rrof wiisbn. Houert
Colli*!', ttrlles:—"Your Machine is such a
iK'iiefll to mankind that 1 ofien feel as
though 'twould dome good to trumpet It*
praises fur und near. The one I have is ec
the plainest kind, but I would not exchange
it for the most expensive I ever saw of any
other make."
Prof. Henshaw of Wflllston Seminary,
writes.—"My wife, from asU Years' previ
ous use of a Wheeler At Wilson rllachlrlfc, came
to the work of a Grover dt Baker with rolilc
tauee. But In a few weeks prejudice vanish
ed admiration Succeeded, and now the Gro
ver & Baker hasuorhore enthuiastlc- advo
cate than she. The simplicity of Itscejastruc-
I tlonjthe facility with which Us use is ac
quired; the bounty, strength, and clastlclty
oritaHllcli and Us adaptability to all Kinds
of work, ore rmalitiet which do not alt betorti/tU
once to any other mlc/Une."
