[from our special correspondent. ]
To the Editors of the Herald:
Norfolk, Va., July 27, 1873.
My Richmond letter, giving you a brief sy
napsis of the situation, and what general in-
‘-ftrrmUi&u I was able to gather under such
unfavorable circumstances as those by which
a traveler on railroads is surrounded, has
doubtless been given to your readers before
this, and they are either eagerly expecting,
they will have
harvest Trade
_ _ and everything is
putting on a more lively’aspect
Yesterday a skirmish bad like to have taken
place in onr city between two of our estima
ble citizens and a revenue officer. The
cause 1 did not enquire into. Two prisoners
who had been arrested above this by the rev
enue officer escaped before or after the diffi
culty, and I suppose ere this are haunting the
hillsides of their nativity, basking in the
sunshine and talking over th6ir narrow es
capes, etc.
Peace and a fair prospect of plenty are
boons that our people are enjoying now to
the fullest extent. If the prospect continues
as good for a month as it is now for bountiful
harvests, many of onr fair mountain lasses
will be led to the by menial alter; and “twis-
tification” and the “mountain brake down"
will be indulged in to an extent that hasn’t
been seen in this section since the tocsin of
war was sounded in 1861.
The press, fixtures, etc., for a new paper at
Gainesville arrived here to-day. What it is
to be called I have not yet learned. I under
stand Colonel J. 8. Peterson is to be the
editor, and that we are to see it more than
once a week.
Tne machinery for the car factory at
Gainesville has arrived, and the thing will
soon be in full blast.
More hereafter.

or prayerlully dreading* my promised com
munication from this city.
Norfolk has improved wonderfully since
your correspondent left it two years ago. It
presents a most thriving appearance, and is
remarkably blessed in the health cf its peo
ple. Nothing like epidemic has appeared
here for a number of years, and very little
sickness of any kind prevails. There is an
impression among people in Southwestern
Virginia, as well as in other sections of the
country, that Norfolk and the surrounding
coantry is subject to chills and fevers, and
that for a person to come here from the moun
tains to live, 16 equal to bargaining for such a
sickness. I.et me do away with this impres
sion. Whist the country round Noifolk is
lavorable to chills, uud they no doubt prevail
in a greater or less degree throughout this
section, the city is, and has always been,
exempt frail them.
Norfolk has been struggling for a number
of years to get a good supply of water, and is
just now about succeeding. Pipes are laid
thoroughmt the city; machinery and every
thing is Eady to furnish water in abundance
at a very i arly day.
The fir# fieod wnich passed over Baltimore,
and mad# his presence felt to such a distress
ing exteit, seems to have brushed Norfolk
with the
TT OF HIS DESTROYING WING.
On the light after the Baltimore fire nearly
a whole bbek was destroyed in the most val
uable busiiess portion ol onr city, involving a
loss of alxut $^0,000; and on the following
morning nnotL* fire broke out a square or
two distant from the first, causing heavy
loss. Again, last night two more conflagra
tions occurred, some distance from each oth
er, showing clearly that an incendiary is at
wori in our midst. The fires yesterday and
last night were kept within bounds and easily
suidnul, with the assistance of the Ports
mouth tire department. The loss occa-
fcioDed by these disasters is only partial
ly covered by insurance. Two Southern
ton.pauies are interested. The Home Co. of
polambus, Ga., looses a smali amount, and
lie Great Western, of New Orleans, of which
tcceral Beauregard is secretly, is also in-
i rested slightly. Another fire is expected
-night, and every preparation is btir.g made

First Annual Celebration of the Fulton Sun
day School Association at Rock Spring.
To the Editors of The Herald :
I had the pleasure of attending the above
celebration at Rock Spring, five miles north
of the city, on yesterday, and it being such a
pleasant affair I thought I wonld take a few
dots for your very excellent paper.
The attendance was large, there being six
Sunday schools represented. In the absence
of Mr. L. B. Davis, the President of the As
sociation, Mr. B. F. Walker, onr popular
county surveyor, opened the exercises in a
few well-timed remarks, and conducted the
ceremonies throughout with much satisfaction.
Miss MaryfSmitb, of Rock Spring School, *d< -
lirored the welcoming address, and for one so
yonng acquitted herself handsomely. Several
addresses were made and where all did so
well I dislike to personate, but that of Mr.
Tommie Jeffries deserves speciol mention.
His remarks were well selected for the occa
sion. He possesses some attributes of ora
tory most remarkable in one so young. His
manner was easy, delivery fine and jestnres
perfeot. The singing, under the management
of Mr. J. R. Haskins, Secretary of the Asso
ciation and Superintendent of the Rock Spring
school (who, by the way, is said to be the
school superintendent iu the State) best
Sunday was charming, causing the for
est to* resonate with the sweetest of melo
dies. The Valedictory, by Miss Sophronia
Donaldson, was simply splendid. Alter
which the presentation of a handsome Bible to
Pace's school, by the association, tor the
largest attendance during the year, closed the
exercises.
Much interest was manifested throughout
the proceedings. The people are thoroughly
enthused, and by the co-operation of the
schools are doing much for the good of socie
ty in the northern portion ol our county.
Every one present seemed to be in their hap
piest mood, and the whole day was spent
most pleasurably.
Rv the way, Peachtree can boast of some as
pretty girls as men ever looked on, and I am
inclined to believe that if I had left my “ rib”
at home, I should have played “single. ’
The dinner was superb. Some mystic
breeze wafted the oderous fumes of fried
chicken to the nostrils of onr aldermanic
friend McMillan, from the “7th,” for he was
there, and “Bill Moore” can testify to his
fondness of the good things of life.
Among others present from the city we
noticed the phiz of Bob Winship, Ben Crew,
and Dr. John Collier.
All agreed that the first annual celebration
of Fulton Sunday School Association was a
grand success.
The indefatigable Matt Stewart was on
hand with a full supply of refreshments.
The crops tbronghont the section were
represented as fine. Visitor.

out of which their board
General Mahone reduced these salaries to this!
amount when he assumed charge of the At
lantic, Mississippi and Ohio railroad. A
change of political principles iu a man who
thus grinds his employees, could not materi
ally depreciate him ii the estimation of good
people.
I am somewhat surprised to find that the
PRESENT GOVERNOR OP VIRGINIA, (WALKEIi),
does not eDjoy the popularity once accorded
him by bis constituents. There is no per
ceptible reason tor this as be has with re
markable consistency performed the duties of
his office, and given every show of devotion
to the interest of the State. Truly may it be
said that popularity, like the wind, bloweth
whither it listeth and no man can tell whence
it comes or whither it goes. As soou as
ward meetings are held throughout the
State and delegates appointed, we can pre
dict the probable nominee of the conserva
tive party, until then it is the merest guess
work, and even then I am not sure but it will
be rash to prophesy.
I believe Hughes is still in the ascendancy
as the probable nominee of the Radical Con
vention which meets in Lynchburg about the
30th, and it is perfectly certain to all well in
formed politicians that he is much the strong
est man that they can advance. He is a man
of acknowledged ability, and of progressive
ideas, bot a renegade Virginian,having several
years ago identified himself with her enemies,
and engaged in their work against the white
man’s party. Two years ago he was accused
cf selling his pen to the Radical journal ol
Richmond, Virginia, which accosation be re-
| sen ted by a challenge to Col. Cameron, then
on his next trip with the “Special,” and in
case Mr. Giant should change the schedule ot
the night-train and thereby discontinue the
•Special,” he requested me to send some spe
cimens of fruit end grapes to your office.
Accompanying this I send you specimens of
grapes and plums which you will piease ac
cept. Enclosed, also, find lists of grapes and
plums with a few remarks as to their respec
tive qualities.
X have twenty varieties of grapes besides
the Hcnppeiuong, Thomas & Clowers, and all
are doing well witu me with only one or two
exceptions. I have about 100 bearing vines
this year, and will be able to gather 4.000
pounds of grapes. If it were not for the
cholera excitement I could readily sell my
grapes at K ood prices, realizing probably $400
and over it, and the ground occupied by these
vines would not realize me exceeding twenty-
five to thirty dollars if cultivated in cotton.
I am shipping now; ar-d what I cannot sell I
will make into wine, and the refuse of bulb
and stems into vinegar.
I was oorn and raised in Germany arooug
the vineclad hills and valleys of the lovely
Rhine, and while there the grape is brought
to perfection—having its advantage mostly
in its salubrous climate—at the same time
my experience here is, that, as to quantity,
lusciousness and specially for table use, the
soil and climate of Georgia stands not behind
that of the Rhine.
A moderate expense, proper care and culti
vation of the grape here, will pay well; and
if every farmer would put from five to twenty-
five acres out in grape vines, it wonl pay him
well in a few years; and intemperance and
whisky rings wonld receive their death blow j
