FIFTY YEARS AGO. _ - _ 4 aj 1 Battering ol ths Clans at an "Oli Vimim" The FcvorUh Excitement ot Expec tation The Lavish HospitMUy 'A Tlmo When Wcdilln's ' VV B Wcildln'a. " Now York Graphic. Fifty year * ago old Roanoke was In r feverish state of excitement ovoran oren which was dostlnod to nnlto the interest ) and estates of two cf the oldest and moo Influential families ia Virginia. Woolu in advance the clans had been gathering from the neighboring states to do honoi to the occasion , and when the day of the wedding arrived "Oakland , " the ancoitra homo of the btido , was taxed to its ut most to accommodate the nnmproua gnests. "Peyton Hall , " the adjoining estate , owned by a relative , also throw open its hospitable doors , nd was soon filled to overflowing by the wedding com pany that cnmo with big box , little box , bandbox and bundle. Cots were placed In parlors and libraries , pallets laid on every available floor , whllo each lounge and oofa had one or more occupants. In thoio days a wedding could not be an Impromptu affair , for the neil of "Old Vlrglnny" was not then , as It now Is , crossed and recreated by Innumerable railroads , and anppllos had to bo wagoned over hundreds of miles of territory. On this cession the confectionery and every thing which could not bo manufactured upon the plantation was brought from Richmond by canal-boat to Lynchburg and from thunca to Roanoke , u distance of several hundred miles , a week being consumed In the operation. Nothing IBB was talked of for months in advance , nd the old county was stirred to iti ontro , for naught S3 revolutionizes a onntry place as a wedding. The neigh boring forests paid their tribute in holly , nd the traditional mistletoe bcugh was usponded on high , under which , If and ictim was caught , she was compelled to lay the accustomed forfeit , which ould bo claimed by and Cavalier In the room so inclined. FHEPAniNO TOR THE FEAST. Chickens , ducks and turkeys , which tad been kept In fattening coops for nooks , lost their head , whllo rotund plgi , tvith apples in their mouths , looked lacldly upon the preparations for their onsutnptlon. Now gowns were given o the female servants , whllo the brass mttons on the livery of the males were irlghtenod to a startling degree. Old 'Uncle Bon" was the centre figure In bin last brigade , and the amount of I" " in ortanco with-M"-V"r " aTtllyfin , , , have doubled Itself uvua ouuuiea to on its occasion , and ho became a most renounced autocrat , dictating terms to Is own color and offering suggestions to Is master , who , as ho had been a faith- ul old butler for many years , listened to im with the utmost consideration. Oakland and Poyton Hall stoodsidp by ide. Each of these rich estates retained nd respected the traditions which had oen handed down from generation t ? enoration by these with whoso names bey were identified. Old landmarks vero c refully preserved ; old trees , lending bnncath the weight of years , wore jealously kept'in place by artificial means , while from the walla of the Im mense salons looked many generations In lowdered wig ? , rufllos and short clothes. 7ho owners of these estates were gentle men * of the "old Bohool , " chivalrous , lonorablo and high-toned ; quick to re sent an insult or to avenge a wrong and nst as quick to pardon an offense whcro loner was not Involved. They were of ; ho stock which gave to Virginia her Light-Horse Harry Lee , JohnKondolph , [ lobort E. Leo , and scores of others who lave mode that state f imous as the moth er of statesmen. Many a gay party of gentlewomen and gay cavaliers galloped down those avc- mes to the summons of the hunter's icrn calling them to a fox hunt or a doer chase , to return in the evening to a brill- ant ball or whist party , whore egg nog and hot apple toddy were the features of : ho evening , while the "antlera" or the "braih , " trophies of the day's sport , were prominent in the decorations. Preparations were made on the moit lav ish scale , and although all the accessories of the supper had to bo wagoned hun dreds of miles thu wedding Is ro'orrod to by octogenarians imd centenarians of the county as one of the finest over wit nessed In Old lloanoke. "Tnat waa a time when weddln's was weddln's , " re cently eald an old gray-haired servant ol the family who still retains a vivid recol lection of the event. i THE NICII1T OF THE WEDDING. When the night of the wadding ar rived thu clans Imd gathered from fai and near , and it is eafo to say that neves was there a more brilliant assemblage In old Roanoke county. Many of the guests came hundreds ol miles In private convoyances. There were no commodious hotels nor by where comfortable quarters could bo ob tained for man and beast , consequently the hospitality of both Oakland and Peyton Hall was severely taxed. At one tlmo sixty extra horses stood In the sta bles of Peyton Hall alone , a llko num ber also testing the corn bins of Oakland. Ool. William 0. Preston , the distin guished southern statesman , whose wil and eloquence added brilliancy to more than ouo presidential administration , drovoall the way from his homo In South Carolina , four In hand , whllo the ex press-wagon , containing the maids and valets of the party brought up the rear. Mrs. Floyd , the wife of Governor Floyd , also came driving four-ln-hand. In fact , this was the general styie it that time , and yet wo find that the people of fifty years ago wore quite aa tenacious in re. gard to theto matters as their descendant ! are to-day. Snuff-colored equlpagef mounted high In the air on Immense springs were en roglo. To attempt to descend from ono of these swinging con veyances was tantamount to joopordlzlnf a life insurance policy , for the frail stepi wiggled and tuined at every moment , and it required the skill of a tactician U ascend or descend without making a fain pai. pai."How well I remember that wedding' said a Virginia matron to me a few dayi ago. "I was only a child then at 'Pey ton hall , ' and children in these day were not as they are now , promlnen features of such oecaiiom , but 1 dlstlne4. ly recollect my old black mammy put ting a oloan apron on me , taking mo b ; the hand and showing mo all the nlc things , then promising if I'd bo a gooi girl that sho'd give me an orange the fol lowing day. " Think of a child in thi d y and generation being contented witl the promise of an orange the day after wedding ? _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Relations of Color and Flavor , Mr. Emroett S. Goff records in th American Naturalist some Investigation ho has made to detormtno whether there may not bo K law of relation between thn color and Ihvor in f cults i\nd vegetables , Ho wai led to hii experiments by the ob < servotlon that In several fruits nnd vege tables , such as onions , currants , toma toes , nnd raspberries , white or light col ored flesh is accompanied by milder am more dollcito fhvor than oxlati In other varieties of the lame fruit or vegetable having n dark colored flesh ; also that Bjmo vegetables are "blanched" to glv < them n mnro delicate fUvor. The nsnn aim in improving the vitalities of fruits and vegetables Is to intensify the doiira bio qualities and eliminate the undcslra bio ones , It Is evident , therefore , Mr , Goff say * , that if the color of the flesh has relation to Its fl vor and tondarno SB , wo have a valuable Index In the work oi selection. If by whitening the flesh of a fruit wo can ollmlnotn acid and solidity , or If by darkening the flesh of another fruit , already too tender and insipid , In the same way vro can heighten its char acteristic fhvor and increase its firmness , wo have gained a now faculty in making the products of nature subservient to our wants. BIr. Goff supports his view by the citation of a numbpr of fruits and vegetables of pcculuritioj , and quotes descriptions by various authors , which appear to bo In agreement with It. " "orct Homed Ics. Hall's Journal of Health. Secret medicinal preparations may bo good , but they may bo iojarlous. The lyttem should bo discouraged. Partlcu- arly should mothers rafuso to give their children remedies the Ingredients cf which they and their physicians do not enow. Many remedies for children are absolutely dangerous. Godfrey's Cordial , Dalby'a Carminative , Batornann'a Drops , Syrup of White Popplos , Soothing Syrup nnd Paregoric all contain morphine or opium in sonio form. Wo know of but ono remedy for children which defioa mysticism and bean upon its libels a list of Its components. The vegetable Gas- torla has acquired its popularity at a cor- 'ector of children's ailments , not alone > ecanso Ib is a reliable medicine , but rom the fact that Its label inspires confi- lenco. Wo shall hail the time when Jatln prescriptions and secret remedies cense to bo the means through which nn- irinclpled empirics may impose upon a rednlous public. Xho Sorantou Artesian Well. Nearly three years ago the Lackawanna ron and Company began to sink an nr- cslan neil not fir from the main works of the company at Scranton , Pa. Goolo- Ists expressed the opinion that canatant low of water could be obtained by bor- ng 1,000 feet. The work was carried n under the supervision of William MoEachan. The diameter o was ehhUnchtfonB - tad gone several hundred feet below the owest coal deposit and had pused brough strata of sand , conglomerate nd clay. The well had then reached a opth 300 feet below the sea level. For months thereafter the drill was kept msy. Last week it reached a point 2- 00 feet below the surface , and water was found. It arose to the top of the well , but the ovetilow.was so small that lioio rras no prospect that its volume would bo enllislout to supply the mills. ) ho company concluded to abandon the work and ordered the machinery to be emoved. Mr. MoEachan , hosrever , .dvanccd the theory that water n abundance arose from the > oHorn of the well to a soft stratum a hort distance below the lower vein of oil , through which It flowed away tone , no south. Ho prevailed on the officials o lot him try an experiment. He ba- leved that the flow of water would ba jreatly increased if the well was tubed rom the top to a paint balow thn soft stratum. Tuesday the tubing wai com- iloted , and Immediately an olgnt-inch troam of water spurted seven feet above he surface and has continued to do so over eince. The Brklo Una Wealth. Arkinsaw Traveler. Uncle Mose approached the county : lerk the other day to obtain a mirrhga iconso.

" The Story of the "Arknns B Trrvrolor , " In nn Interview with the venerable Jess Toito , a well-known musician , now 83 yours of ago , tho40lnctnnati Commer cial Gazalto says : Several yrars slnco , when Tosso was traveling the State of Arkansas , on his way to Texis , railroads being us yet unheard - hoard of any stage lines limited , he was obliged to traverse the whole distance on foot oren horsobaok. Ono evening abont dusk ho cimo across a log house stand- lag fifteen or twenty yards from the road , and Inclosed by a low rail fence of the most primitive description. In the door mi a ninn playing the violin. Totso rec ognized the tune as "Tho Arkansas Trav eler , " which was at that time the most popular tnno in that region , and which ho had hiuisolf composed. The man kept repeating the first part of the tnno ever and ever again , as ho did not know the second parr. At the tlmo the traveler reached the house it was raining very hard , and ho was anxious to obtain shel ter from the storm , although the homo looked anything but n shelter , as It was covered with olapbords , and the rain was leaking In at every crack. The old man's daughter seemed to bo getting supper , wbilo a small boy was laving the table , and the old lady sat In the doorway near her husband admiring the music. The stranger , on coming up , said : "How do yon do ? " The man merely glanced at him. and , continuing to play , said : "I do as I ploiso. " Lnm tl turn , Inm ti tarn , Inm tl tnm , tl. 8.
