Tee Democrat SATU&DAr Yov.27 i'Yom H'cbsta' County. Webstcu C. II., Nov. 12. Eil if or Democrat, Your correspondent 1ms spent the latter hull'ut' the summer unci the early lall in Greenbrier bounty. It is with unfeigned pleasure that lie pencils down a very feeble out line of his excursion. Leaving the Ten-Mile Jlr.u-c (Sam Given's) at a late hour, \vc reached Beaver's Mills, where \v? received a cordial welcome, and en joyed an excellent dinner at .Mr. N. Alderson's. Thence Cola and his rider proceeded towards Corn ley. Whilst traversing this stream, at the mouth of Cranberry, in a staunch ferry-boat, we compared notes. Five years ago we missed the ford and swam across?water twenty feet deep. Our pony proved to be a natural swimmer, under circumstances, a good "make up" for his utter failure as a natural pacer. We reached Cherry river at sundown. Mr. Allen Spencer mourned over the entire absence of trout at this season in this beauti ful stream. His venison was succulent, and other accommoda tions as good as would be expected. Mr. Spencer proposes to build a frame house close to the road, and prepare himself, ho says, to enter tain his friends and patrons. Wednesday morning, after pay ing our compliments to a couple of respectable Uruins, fattening in a pen, wo resumed our journey. This mountain,region is setting a laudable example to wealthier sec tions. The roads are fair;:im provements are being made; bridges in good condition; numer ous clearings peeping out through the woods; a primitive school room or meeting-house, consisting of a profusion of-benehes, under a broad roof, supported by columns, such us in ages by-gone gave rise to the Doric and Ionic orders of architecture, add novelty to the picturesque scenery which appar ently shorten distance or relieve fatigue. One-half of the day has gently slid by, where we rest on Culbertson Greek j and a lew hours later we aie comforted at the Vir ginia House, in 1?'rankford, by the smiles, as well as the good cheer, of our old friend Cyrus MeClung, his amiable family and hosts of friends. Greenbrier, you know, is our former home. Our pilgrimages thither bccomc exquisite eomininglings of joy and sorrow, llow many, oh, how many comrades have pusscd away! And the fatal scissors are still at work. From each friend we meet we hear of a scoj'e or so who sleep the sleep that knows no awakening. Hardships ami incessant struggles through ever-failiug hopes, proved themselves more destructive mis siles than bullets. Changing from this gloomy topic, a bright future now looms up be fore us. Never before was there such a buzz in Frank ford as this summer witnessed. Wagons and buggies are incessantly passing through the streets; crowds are gathering in or leaving the stores; travelers from divers sections are stopping at the hotel; the shrill whistle of the steam-throbbing ma chine shrieks in all directions: improved agricultural implements greet your sight on every hand. More intelligent farming, with the use of fertilizers, have raised the yield of grain from ten to thirty bushels to the acre; and such a farmer formerly thought himself fortunate with his two hundred, now is scarcely satisfied with his harvest of over twelve hundred bushels of a superior quality ofi wheat. Greenbrier is herself again. I A new era'of prosperity is ibre-j shadowed, which will eclipse the I former prestige enjoyed by that! highly favored county. Lewishurg, whero we spent three; or four weeks, is the same quaint, i pleasant old res ling place of voie.' A few new buildings attract atten-j tion. The Town Hall and the | Female Institute, for instance,are) note-worthy. The High .School, flourishing under the able super vision of Major , is a large, commodious establishment, where one hundred pupils are now train ing for the battle of life. The J.ew isburg Hotel has been crowded during the whole season?every i nook, crook and corner occupied. Colonel J. 11. Stratton and John llandly, the popular proprietors, lately leased the Stalnaker build ings, on the opposite side of the ntreet, and arc lining them for the , further accommodation of their in- : creasing patronage. Their large ; livery stables are inadequate to the require met Its, ami their capacity:] will l?c doubled by .4pritt?. l'lvrry-'< tiling is life and bustle. 'J'lic evi dences of forthcoming prosi>erity are brightening. God speed the dny'when our most sanguine hoj?usi and heartfelt wishes for Green brier's welfare may be fully real ized. As I sat on the porch of the Ho tel and reviewed numerous herds on their way to the Chesapeake it Ohio Railroad cat lie-yards, niv mind's eve scanned over the line from Lcwisburg to Weston, cut Webster. What pastures green it beheld! What ecstatic dreams your cattle-lords would have in dulged in! Permit me to suggest that the dream might be worthy of your most practical men's scru tiny. Greenbrier will meet them half-wav, and do whatever she can to prombte common interest. She has spent this year five hundred dollars on tin's road. Let us give a goad pull, and a pull all'together, and the day is near at hand when Weston, .Webster, Lewisburg and the White Sulphur will be brought into business contact. A line of stages opening the way from the B. ?fc 0. R. U. to the 0. & 0. It. K. wo,Ud make our beautiful moun tains a favorite summer resort for invalids, tourists and pleasure seekers,whose numbers are increas ing so fast that they failed* last year to find available accommoda tions betwixt Richmond and Lew isburg. Shall wo make an effort and secure the prize, or abandon to Pocahontas the pleasure and profit to lie derived from tho derelope ment of the enterprise? and there by change the course of travel, and indefinitely postpone and check mate our march to progress. Weklsek. Fntufdiu Litter, Editor Democrat, Our town is lively, although the election did not suit all around. Our Republican friends are not suited as well as we. It is hard to tell who has tho longest face Democrat or Republican. The Democrats are looking down be cause Hancock was counted out. Republicans are sour because Hutchinson was not counted in. They begin to stick up their ears now, ibr they think he will be counted in yet. Rut we have had our fun out here, if he in counted in. If you want a Republican to run when ho hurrahs for Garfield, just hArrali for Colonel Ben. He'll make tracks, and don't you forget it. Wonder why it is? It must be because they, spent so much money on "Little Jack." Some of that came near staying in our town; but there are not many "Hoppers" here. They won't Hop for less than live dollars, anyhow. Walnut Fork is the place where W. W. Uranium got oil' one of his abusive speeches, and was an swered by William Ronnclt, who completely cleaned out "Rilly." It is a good way to "clean out" a man bv asking questions. We have never heard of any man being "cleaned out" this way. ''Cleaned out" is a curious way of expressing such a thing; but curious or not, there is nothing on Walnut Fork die for that little job. Walnut Fork is nothing but a Republican Fork anyhow, and the "fellow" who organized that Club would come back at its meeting after wards and try to make a speech, would soon give it up and say, "By George, boys, let's give three cheers for Garfield and Arthur. Then the Club would adjourn of, course. Cheer on, boys, it will do us good. Aftkii While. I ?Every man thinks a newspa-| per fair game, if a society or any' body of men get up a concert or *a] ball', or other form of entertain ment, the object of which is to put money into their pocket*, or if the proceeds are to be devoted to char itable purposes to add to their own glorification, they become very indignant if the proprietors of newspapers do not assist them by a series of gratuitous advertise ments lor several weeks before the event lakes plan-. These gentle men should renumber that literary I men, in this practical age, work for) money as well as for fame, priiici-j pailv the farmer, however, and the) business manager ??!' a newspaper, | if lie wishes tu keep on the safe | .-ide of the ledger, conducts liisj charge on the same principle as the head of any business estab lishment.? h'xelmugr. ?Imagine if you can what' would happen if to-morrow morn-! ingthe railway locomotive and its! corollary, the telegraph, were blot ted from the earth. To whatj humble proportions mankindj would bo compelled to scale down j the great enterprises they are now; pushing forward with such easel j ?Too much of the Christianity; of the present day is, like a j?air of boots, polished up every taundav; morning for church. * * j ?Theories are too often like Ifal Icons?their motive power being Orcnlntwjt Account*. Old Time sat a cashier behind the window of a bank whore all men must ilo busii.ess. A long line of customers^ too vast to count, came each with his ehcck in hand to tho wicket for his cash. I stood and watched the scene for hours, till it came my own turn to place my cheek under Father Time's gray and ancient scrutiny. A well-dressed man, with confi dent air, with a hard, resolute face and yet lip.? bitten as if with pain, throw in hie cheek. '?Your account is overdrawn," said Time. UT told your! friend so yesterday who presented a chick of yours." "What? That's why I came my self. Overdrawn! 1 should have twenty years here yet to draw on!" exclaimed *the excited gentleman, growing pale with every word. "Mow old do vou reckon your self?" asked cashier Time. "Why,only fifty-live. And thrce scorc-years-and-ten is the deposit to begin with." ? See," said Time, thrusting a great hook under the poor man's eyes. "In 1830, you, being then nineteen years (if age, drew three years in one. The next year; and the next; and the next^ you drew .three years in one You squan dered them in dissipation. You drank them up. As Cleopatra, the Egyptian queen, dissolved dia monds in a glass of wine and drank tho costliest banquet-cup that oppufent vanity hud ever seen, so you nrank up life years between nineteen and twenty-three. You threw away days and nights as a king in old times threw coin to the rabble. When by the * calendar you were aged twenty-five, by my strict and accurate books you were thirty-five, and beginning to grow old." "Very well," began the tremb ling figure in reply, "but 1 reorgan ized after that. Ten years lost, I then reformed." "True. Uut in 1850 you drew days and mouths very fast again. For the sake of being rich you squandered strength like a spend thrift. You crowded three weeks into one for a long while. In ten yfcars you lived out twenty J did the work of twenty, the worry, the lighting, the litigation, tho travel, the greedy sins of twenty years. You have gotten your wealth. You have gained the whole world ?nd lost your life. Whether you have lost your soul or not is not mine to say/ God knows that. This bank does no business in eternity. The account is overdrawn, sir. Step aside, old man of fifty-live, custom ers arc waiting." A ml while i looked the servants of the bank came in. Death, Dust, and Forgetfulness, and carried him out. Then came a haggard wretch whose name indorsed upon the back of a check read "A. Suicide.' He faltered out : "I suppose this elieck is worth less. There is not another day for me." "On the contrary, there are vet fortv years that'vou can draw against; happy, useful years, spent for man's good and Cod's praise." "I doubt it. There must be some ! mistake." "Not so. "What shall I do with these years if you will not lake them?' No other man can use tliein; yet thousands would be glad of them, begging so pitiful!And there are so many thousands of un claimed years, filled up within^my vaults! 'They shall be addcu to Eternity again when T, Old Time, go out of business. Yet Eternity is no richer for them, lake your years and be happy in them as God intended." lint the foolish heart declined; and I saw the three servants come in and carry him out as they had i old Avarice before J Then 1 saw tremendous checks ' paid out to Malice, Revenge, Jeal ousy, Evil Imaginations, Had Thoughts, Discontent. Old Time could not help speaking his warn ing, though it was none of his bus iness. lie said: "Gentlemen, nothing draws such heavy drafts on a man's deposit of years of health and strength., as unwholesome thoughts. They are more expensive than unwholesome deeds, if possible. Look out that .you do not overdraw your ac counts." j Then I saw a young man at the window. Time asked: I "How will you have it, sir? In I lartre hills or small?" I "In large, if you plense. Let me I live a year in a day. A venr of idea sure crowded into one wild day! The good things of forty had and used up at twenty. J cannot wait." And old Time smiled with sar donic curl of the lip as he observed j how the young fcol was making the I same mistake of the old lool a few 'steps before him. Hut.the check was cashed in the big bills. f saw. too, as I stood there, how men overdrew their accounts of Good Imputation. A man may, it seems, build up a reputation by lonuand faithful years which will withstand a good manv blunders; he may check against it with care ful words and thoughtless deeds for some time before that stored good reputation is wasted On the whole the bettor part of a commun ity had rather believe good of one of their foremost fellow-citizens than evil: it is not pleasant to hear a scandal aired before the faces of their children: not pleasant to see an old friend fall; and many p?.?. pie are so related, socially and commercially, with this man of a leading position that his ruin would Millie! loss on them, llenee they keep his account good at the bank over which Time presides; , thov do it by excuses, lending their j countenances to the blundering You nre l''?,k?|"- u,4>r ?ill they Sv^M written .10- j :l AnVr 0Vi?cr\"C?l tluit three strong =|*istr?|F3l l>T?!w'too,howrocn ami women ,,f brilliant gift* overdrew toruj-j ESlsSs iv mlnu'd ton highly upon the pa-, tie,ice of an admiring public, and I mil,MO?ei! they would overlook his, dllSitomcssand earnu.al.y^efi nitciv So the people ill 1 oi .1 time" But when lle !i '"IT minted tlu'in night after night when lie neglected >1)*^ H '^V'^irr&nlid^^ nu ke HI., lie l??*1 the point of cn duniricc.
