VOL VI NO 13 (HR IlfiTJlA LETTER- ONE OF COEUMBIa’h SONS IN THE OLD DOMINION. Lexington, Va. Nov. 9,1887. Editors Sentinel : In the following lines it shall be my endeavor to describe the beauti ful country of the Valley of Virginia, in the heart of which I have tho pleas ure of being nt present located. Tho country which lies adjacent to Lex ington is extremely mountainous and the Blue Ridge, clothed in its exter i nal mantle of blue, can be seen lifting , its lofty summit in the distance. ; Those mountains are covered with a thick growth of trees, and down their dark ravines brooks merily toss, lending h charm to them which is al most indescribable. These mountains aro very beauti ful, especially at this time of the year, when they aro decked with a diversity of colors, which would rival the efforts of an art,st to depict. Through this Valley flows the North river, meandering along in’its tortu ous course it winds in and out among the mountains; abounding iu trout near its source, it is, as a mut ter of course, a great resort for sporfsmen. Near Lexington is tho Natural Bridge, famed throughout tho whole world as one of tile most curious freaks of nature. In addition to this curiosity of .nature, there is an attrac tion which cannot be justly valued, it is tho healthful ih ss of its situation.— Isolated from tho accustomed haunts of man and situated in a most charm ing district its atmosphere is free Irixn the epidemical animalcule which o’erteems the air of our densely pop ulated cities. And, now, that Indian summer has come to enhance the ma jestic, yet serene beauty of the scene ry, ami to cover tho land with a hazy sweetness, it scorns by far too pure for tho habitation of corrupted mor tals, but one might well believe that the fairies of our ancient myths hold their festive sports among tho green vales <if tho hills. Hole, too, is the homo of Leo and Jocksou, the mention of whose names thrills the hearts of all true Southern ers, and tho venerable halls of Wash ington and Leo University and tho Virginia Military Institute seem like monuments erected to their memory. Indeed, so closely is the name of R. E Lee connected with the college that it sometimes seems as if the mar tial of feet could be heard at night echoing down tho dim corridors. I will now close my letter to you with tho hope that some of my Geor gia friends may in tho near future have the pleasure of visiting this grand old Valley of Virginia, the beauty of which can, in writing, only bo feebly portrayed, and upon whose patriotic soil so many bravo soldiers of tho old “Empire State” fought, bled and died, fighting for what they believed to boa just cause and what in their belief, their God did not condemn. Truly, yours, R. C. — 1 HU Excellent Farming. Evening News: Who can beat the record for excellent farming when a lady makes over a bah of cotton to the acre ? Mrs. 8. A. Lamar, of Beech Island, who runs a small plant ation over tho river, has made this season 41 bales of cotton on 40 acres of land, with only two mules. Be sides tho growing of cotton, Mis. La mar has produced a large quantity of corn and other cereal crops The old experienced farmers had better look out if the ladies are going to out do them in husbandry. Pitts’ Carminative has been used during the summer months for flatu lent colic, cholcramorbus, cholera in fantum ami teething children for more than thirty years. During that time it has not resulted in a single failure when t e case was begun in time. Moreover babies who have taken Pitts’ Carminative aro always fat and healthy. Why is this? Ist. Because it is pleasant to the taste and the children will not refuse it. 2nd. It promotes digestion and the child is not weakened by drain from stomach and bowels. 3rd. It corrects all acids and keeps the stomach healthy. —The cross tie business is on a boom.
