Coristiansburo, Va., February 26', 1874. This has beeu court-week with us, and therefore notable in our calendar. True; iu decd, county court has ceased to be what it was in point of dignity and importance ; but the people cannot easily get over the habit of "going to town" on court-day once a month. Tbe weather this time was so bad that the turn-out was not as large as usual. It was arrand-jury term, and a large number of indie ments were made? twenty-three, 1 believe, in all. The negroes figure princi pally in the list, as usual, for all sorts of offences from tbrowingstones up to shooting with intent to kill. Gus. Goff, the nejaxo who recently shot Dr. J. P. Hammet, "of this place, in an altercation which took place be tween them, was indicted. Dr. Hammet's wound proved a slight oue, and he Is now out and well. As an item which will helpout the Dispatch in its argument for a return to a CONSTITUTIONAL C0T7NTV-C0URT system, 1 learn that tbe list of criminal cases for the next circuit court here is sufficient to occupy aM the time of the court, to the ex clusion of all" other business. It is the general testimony of FARMERS from all pirts of the county that wheat never looked better here. The winter has been a remarkably mild one and very favora ble to its growth. The season has been fine r.l>o for wiuter ploughing, and a great deal has been done in preparation for oats and corn. At present the whole face of the country is covered with snow. Yesterday and the day before we had the heaviest snow full of the season, accompanied by some sleet. As tbe ground is warm and not in condition to hold it long, we have the pro mise of a Oeligbtlul slush for some days. Business is still very dull and monev scarce, but as an evidence of both money and enterprise we note the establishment in our town of a large tannery by a couipan}* of our own citizens. In the absence of Mr. T. N. Conrad, who is now a clerk in tbe House of Delegates, Captain J. A. Si tg reaves, a disabled officer of the Confederate army, and a most worthy gentlemau, is conducting the Montgomery Messenger. Montgomkky. * From Ashland.

The prospect is improving; and, doubtless, as the weather opens, the mine will be worked more extensively. The Rev. A. G. Brown, the energetic financial agent of the college, is fast accumu lating bi ick> and timber lor the immediate construction of the hotel. It will be 12.3 feet in length and 7.1 in width.

Isaacs, JK?q. fFrora the Wheeling Krister, 2Gih J The ceremonies connected with the forma tion of a Grand Coram indery of Knights Templar for West Virginia were had yester day in this city, and attracted almost uni versal attention. Notwithstanding the con tinuous snow-storm, the streets were thronged with citizens to see the parade of Knights and to hear tbe splendid music dis coursed by three brass bands that accompa nied tbe procession. A special conclave of the Grand Encamp ment of the Unitrd States was held, Sir James H. Hopkins presiding, arid tbe Grand Com mandery of West Virginia was regularly coustituted and proclaimed. Tbe following named Knights, who had been previously elected at a convention composed of the qualified representatives of the several subor dinate Commanderies in the State, were then feeverally installed: Sir O. S. Long, grand commander; Sir R. G. Lyle, grand gene ralissimo; Sir (i. W. Pat ton, grand captain general; Sir Th >mas II. Logan, grand prel ate; Sir Alexander Parks, Jr., senior grand warden ; Sir C. Y. Lucas, junior grand ward en ; Sir L H. Williams, grand treasurer ; Sir M. A. Chandler, grand recorder ; Sir A. L. Nye, grand standard-bearer; Sir Henry Iieed, grand sword-bearer; Sir George Da vis, grand warder; Sir Hugh Sterling, grand captain of the guard. After tbe transaction of the necessary busi ness for setting the new Grand Commandery in motion, that body was cioicd, appointing i's next meeting in "the city of Wheeling on tbe Friday succeeding the second Tuesday iu November, 1874. the banquet. Al 7 o'clock tbe Sir Knights with a num ber of their invited lady-lriends assembled at the MeLure House, and shortly afterwards sat down to an elegant suppe'r. A great many speeches were made in response to toasts, and the following letters were read wnen the toast to the Grand Commandery of j Virginia was drunk: Richmond, February 15, 1874. To F. C.

Your courteous favor of the, 10th, inviting me to be present at the cere mouy of constituting tbe new Grand Com mandery of Koights Templar of the State of West Virginia, has just been received.
