error. He signed the bill of excep- •
tions as beiug correct, but refused
to suspend sentence and directed tbe !
jailor to “take Mr. Gibson to jail i
and treat him like anv other common
criminal.”
1 immediately had a copy of the
record made, ami a member of the j
bar started that night to the home j
of Judge Snyder, of the Supreme
Court of this State, who, the next
morning, promptly granted the writ
of error and ordered my release with- |
out requiring the usual bond.
Mr. McGinnis, knowing that this
application had been made to Judge i
Snyder.and being remonstrated with
by his entire bar, on the next morn- j
ing, before Judge Snyder's telegram
ordering my release was received, 1
without any knowledge or request,
himself ordered my release.
Mr. McGinnis is an announced
candidate for re-election, and I have,
as lias the entire bars in his circuit,
with one exception, opposed him on
his candidacy, and stated on one oc
casion, two months ago, in a public
speech in the city of Huntington,
that “he was too ignorant for the
position and as dishonest as he was
ignorant.” This was one of his spe
cifications of contempt.
I desire to add that my friends
may rely upon it that when this
case comes on to be heard, as heard
it will be, I will show Ira J. Mc
Ginnis to be a dishonest and cow
ardly man, and a brutal and insolent

Mr. Nathaniel Craighill Esq, an
aged citizen of this place, died on
Monday night last in his SOth year,
He was one of our oldesi aud most
respected citizens. His father was
Win Price Craighill. who married
Miss Little ol a well known and tal
ented family of Ya. Win. Little, of
Fredericksburg, and Dr. Alexander
Little, of Richmond, were cousins of
the deceased.
Before the war Mr. Win. Nathan
iel Craighill was cashier of the Bank
of the Valley of this town, and there
never was a more faithful or effi
cient officer. It is said that for fif
teen years consecutively he never
lost a day nor houi from his post of
duty in the bank, although during
a part of the time, he lived in the
country, three and a half miles away
from the institution. He was, al
most from the period of his matur
ity,—a devout and zealous member
of the Episcopal church, and exem
plified, in his daily work in a con
spicuous manner, all of the virtues
of a truly pious aud Christian gen
tleman.
Lieu. Col. William Price Craighill,
of the U. S. Army, whose distin
guished services as an engineer
have given him a national reputa
tion. is oue of his surviving chil
dren. as are also Robert Craighill
Esq., of Lynchburg; Rev. Jas. B.
Craighill, of Maryland;and Dr. Ed
ward Craighill,of Virginia. Dr. C.
T. Y. S. Butler, an eminent phyician
of this county, residing at Shep
herdstown. is his son-in-law.
A Great Increase.
The total shipments cf bitnmin
coal over the Norfolk and Western
Railroad for the year up to August
20 were 714,G47 ton, against 521,509
tons at the same time last years,an
increase of 193,138 tons. This is
at the rate of over 1,200,000 tons a
vear. When it is remembered that
the Pocahontas coal mines were only
a few years ago, it will be seen how
rapidly Southwestern Virginia is im
portant factor in the bituminous
coal output.
From the spirit
Mr. Thomas Yanvactor has traded
his 450 acres of mountain land, on
the east side of the Shenandoar river,
in this county, to Mr. R. K. John
ston, of Baltimore, for city property.
A potion of the northeast coner
of the Park Hotel lot, fronting on
South George street, we understand,
has been purchased for the purpose
of erecting thereon a ('atholic church

Messrs. Edgar and Arthur Car

noon, in a buggy with two horses.
As they were coining down Barker’s
hill on the Summit Point road the ;
yoke strap broke, and the buggy
running on the horses, caused them
to run. At the crossing of the S. V.
railroad the buggy was upset and
both men thrown out. The horses
becoming detached from the buggy
ran into our town and were caught.
The buggy was completely demolish

had gained inflesh thirty six pounds.

HARPER’S FERRY LETTER.
Harper’s Ferry, Sept. 5.
Mr. Editor.—We hardly deem it
necessary to offer an excuse for again
referring to the great enterprise of
I Savery <fc Co., for the subject of the
Harper’s Ferry of to-day, with this
left out, would be—to quote a trite
1 phrase—Hamlet without the Prince
| of Denmark. Besides, as the old
i saying is, “a good feast requires no
apology,” and as the prosperity of
! our village affects that of all Jeffer
sou county as well as the neighbor
ing portions of Virginia and Mary
I land, we know of no topic more in
I teresting to your readers. You re
; member, however, that lately you
have curtailed our wind and limited
j us to narrow bounds, and therefore,
| without entering into details, we
will sum up by saying that the work
goes bravely on and is fast ap
proaching the desired consumma
tion.
The melancholy days are coming
on, and indeed one of them has ar
rived—Black Monday—the day of
reopening the schools—and, as we
write, troops of dejected urchins
pass along with a slow, slouching
gait very different from the bound
ing elastic step of the same on clos
ing day three months ago. Verily
they boast not themselves while they
gird on their harness as they will
when they put it off nine months
hence. The city people are taking
wing, and the surrounding hills
where, a few days ago, they crowded
thick as leaves in Vallumbrosa or
children ’round an Irishman’s shan
ty, are abandoned save by a few
whom freedom from business en
gagements and depth of purse ena
; ble to prolong the luxury of our
pure air aud unrivaled scenery.
They, too, will soon be gone and,
j like “sweet Auburn, loveliest village
of the plain,” Harper's Ferry will be
deserted, with this marked differ
ence, that the former had an in
spired idiot—as Dr. Johnson called
poor Goldsmith—to sing its praises,
while the latter—the worthier of the
two—depends at present for fame on
a very prosaic country-schoolmas
ter. No one will miss the presence
of the strangers more sensibly than
your correspondent, for to the bustle
and stir of the visiting season we
owe much of the pabulum on which
our fancy has fed while inditing the
series of absurdities with which we
have tired the patience of your read
ers this summer. There is then
some reason to fear that for dearth
of light material we might endeavor
to be serious and rashly launch into
some subject of practical interest
and incur the anger of some if not
all the factions that are spoiling for
the great light of next year. It is a
hard choice, but though it is not
creditable to our valor, we prefer
the contempt due to our inanities to
the awful wrath that a little good
sense would be sure to evoke. “Be
lieve me that ho has lived well who
has hidden himself well,” said a
great Roman poet nineteen centu
ries ago, and as we believe the same
is as true to-day as it was then, we
will stick to our nonsense as long as
we can find a sufficient supply of it,
and safe in oifr obscurity we will
leave the important things of cur
rent history to‘‘simpleton sages aud
reasoning fools” who love the strife
and turmoil of controversy.
Great as has been the number of
visitors accommodated here this
summer, it is believed that quite as
many have been disappointed in ob
taining entertainment, and it is said
that fort}’ applicants were refused
on one day for want of room by one
boarding-house proprietor. This is
exciting a bnikliug boom, ana we
hear of great preparations for the
erection of cottages on the Heights
of Bolivar, Loudoun and Maryland.
A waggish Irishman of Washington
wrote to a boarding master for ac
commodation for a mile of family
and. on being informed iu a spirit
of fun that he could be accommoda
ted, presented himself one day at the
hotel with a tlock of eight. His
name is Patrick Furlong, and he
claims that eight furlongs will make
a mile any day. By the way he
is a hue, genial fellow, and lie has
made so many friends here that we
will manage to lodge and feed him
self and family if they should grow
to a league, which he says himself
is within the probabilities.
The belief is prevalent that Har
pers Ferry will become one of the
great favorite summer resorts, and
a day or two ago we heard of a con
templated agency for the sale of
building-sites at this point. It is
said, indeed, that a syndicate, with
4his object in view’, has already
rented an office of Mr. Kobert Cava
lier. No one can tell what a day
will produce as Mrs. Day said when
she presented her lord and master
with triplets, and on the same occa
sion we heard the astounding news
that an enterprising gentleman of a
neighboring State was about to es
tablisli-a bank at the place. This
latter undertaking will be a great
boon to our schoolmasters and edi
tors, whose surplus cash has been
increasing of late to an inconve
nient degree, owing to the general
business depression and the conse
quent difficulty of tlnding profitable
investments. We have no doubt
that those classes will tlock to our
bank to make deposits or, perhaps,
to purchase hank stock.
We are glad to learn that Mr. S.
J. Lang, the artistic tailor of your
town, intends to pay our place reg
ularly recurring and frequeht visits
to give our people fits—we mean
good Jits in clothing. We under
stand that Mr. Lang came to our
county with the highest recommcn
dations from the most fashionable
1 houses in his line of London and
New York, and from our personal
acquaintance with him, we do not
hesitate to declare our conviction
that he is a genial and thoroughly
honorable gentleman, and the very
man to supply a long felt need—
that of a man capable or measuring
accurately the human structure and
cutting to suit the measurement.
We learn that in a lew months he
has built up a very extensive busi
ness in Charlestown. Ilis headquar
ters here will be at Green's hotel.
What a pity you have restricted
us to certain narrow limits in your
columns. Our Pegasus is a spirited,
but obstinate beast, that brooks
neither bit nor bridle—one that will
carry us safely in the most daring
flights of fancy when left to its own
sweet will, but will be just as apt to
! cant us into a ditch if restricted in
liberty. On 3 011, then, Mr. Editor,
will rest the awful rosponsibilit3' of
our probable failures, and glad
enough will we be to have somebod3'
between us and the certain displea
| sure of your disappointed readers.
