Mr. (’. 13. Roush arrived here via Berry- j
ville, about 11 o’clock, on Monday, and af
ter paying bis respects to l»is honored dead
tiiat sleep under the turf in Mount Hebrou,
drove to (./rim’s Hotel, and after having his
carriage put away he called in to pay his ;
respects to the Timet.
After a short interchange of courtesies he j
wended his way down to Main street, where
he was soon surrounded by over GOO boys,
from 5 to 1G years ot age, among whom he
distributed by tossing in the air about $50
in small change. He found upon trying to

i«any friends on Main Street,') that it was a

finally succeeded in retracing bis steps to
the Times office where he spent an hour
pleasantly with many of his friends.

1 o’clock, and was introduced by Mr. K. t.
Byrd on the part of tho Sarah Zane Com
l».i..v, to the gue-ts. Mr. Byrd asked them
to stop eating long enough to be introduced
t,, Mr. Cuarles Broadway Rouss, a man
mm h better known than he was and from
whom an introduction would be more ap
propriate. He bad generously dispensed
his wealth more lavishly than any other cit
izen who had left us. His charity was
catholic, and he made no difference as to
^ex or previous condition, and when he
.....w aura ill ir w «« free ns the air we
breathe. In the innate nobleness of his gen
er -ity—having found the golden stream he
,-xclaiti - with the poet “Breathes there a
man with soul so dead, who never to him
self has said this is my own my native
land ” He dosed his pretty introductory
'j h by prop >-ing three cheers for (.’has.
B. Rouss.
The t-heer- were given by the large crowd,
making the old Court House walls resound
with a hearty good will.
Mr. t\ B. Rouss theu came to the front
mid in in inimitable speech, full ol pith
and point, acknowledged the compliment.

claimed there i- a man who for years took
inv fare on the old trap iron, Winchester
and Potomac Road, and in later years on
the steel of the B & O. R.. and never would
let me slip through dead-head.
We became so much interested in his
homely expres-ions, evincing the great prac
ticability of the man, that we found our
- Ives listening intently, instead of captur
in*; the gems of thought as they fell from
hi- lips and putting them on paper, (never
mind we will get him to write uso it a hom
ily on human happinc--.) After a cordial
hand->hakc from many, and a word of good
e leer, he was whirled away to the Valley
Female College where he had been invited
t > take a view from the observatory, lie
spent ... time very pUa-antly there, in

alter which he was again entertained by hi
friends, and aboil! l o’clock left tor home,
via Berryville.
He was much pleased with the few hours
spent in hi- old native town.
