A VISIT TO NATUBAL BRIDGE. A Correspondent Tells The Herald and Newsof This Wonderful Natural For matlon. . Having occasion to visit the little ; = town of Glasgow, Va., on my way to Newport News, Va., (thegreat Virginia seaport) and learning that that wonder ful formation of nature, the Natural S Bridge of Virginia, wasonly a few miles away, I determined to go and see the bridge, and so, in company with Col. Martin, of Natural Bridge, and one or two others, I went from Glasgow, in the Colonel's buggy to Natural bridge. I supposed that the bridge was very near the station. But we passed Natural Bridge station, on the C. & 0. Railroad, and we then drove about three miles further before reaching the hotels at Natural Bridge. There are two or three of these already there and a very large one building. The Natural Bridge Company own about everything r- around there. They have their stables and. meet every train. They are not particular. as to whether they notice how you get to the hotel, but when you goto leav- 'ey charge you for hack fare both ways. I suppose they think if you didn't come in their con veyance you should have done so. They eqarged me both ways when I should nave only paid one way, having Col. Martin's carriage. But I did not "catch on" until later, and supposed they were just sticking it to us as it was at the bridge and they had us. I 'was there three hours and ate one meal, when I called for my bill it was $1.75, and it cost me besides that 50cts to go under the bridge. I thought that pretty steep, but I did not regret it, as I had got to see the wonderful arch. It being pretty late when I arrived at the hotel, and I having to go to New port on the next train, Ilost no time in getting under the bridge to see what I could see. I was told at the gate that I could get a ticket for one admission, or good for all day for 50cts or could get one good"for the whole season for$1. I always !ike to take a bargain when I see it, and felt tempted to take a season ticket, just because it was so much cheaper than the other. But, as I did not know that I would ever have an other opportunity of visiting the bridge, and as I only bad about two hours I concluded to take the 50cts business. -I was told by the-clerk to look up when I got under the arch and there I would see the American eagle. I of course thought this was a hallucination, or a great draw on the imaginative powers. I was told that I would not need a guide, but to go straight ahead and fol low the walk. I started down the path and went down first one flight of steps and then another, until I began to think I might be on my way to the lower regions. But finally, upon turn ing a short bend the grandest sight I had ever beheld burst upon my view. There to -my right, and not fifty yards away were the solid rock walls which were spanned by the wonderful bridge. Te sight was awe-inspiring, and 1 stopped in my tracks, and looked up at the bridge 215 feet above my head, feel lng quite a hesitancy about advancing under the dangerous looking thing. But when I remembered that the bridge had been there ever since the recollection of man, and that thousands upon thousands had been under it, who had possibly had the-same feeling -- of fear upon first beholding it, I ad vanced and walked under under it. When I got underneath the centre of it I again looked up, and there, sure enough I beheld, without any trouble the American eagle, with tolerably well-formed head, wings and tail. It has its wings spread and its tail spread and its head neck, and bill turned to the left-a very good representation of the American eagle-I did not notice any arrows in its feet~ however. While I was there looking at the eagle and gazing in wonder at every thing around me, the awful looking ledges of rock that looked like they would fall down any minute, and those that had already fallen, I was accosted by an Israelite from Cincinnati. One of the best originals of the clothing - store-Israelite, so often seen represented in the almanacs and pictorial papers, thatlIhad never seen. It was so real that I almost expected him to ask me * if I would like to buy "some clodings to-day." It wasso intent in contem plating the bridge that I bad not not iced any one else under it until this Is raelite with his little boy came up. The Israelite began talking to me just as if he had known me all his life and was perfectly well aware that I was nearly deaf, and that there was no sick folks in the neighborhood. He yelled out that this bridge was a wonderful thing. I was very glad that he was so thought ful as to call my attention to so impor tant a fact, as I might have gone away and overlooked it. He proved to be a regular blood-hound on a red hot scent of discovery, of the different figures, images, etc., which are to be found in the rock walls and the arch. These are formed by the different colored places or patches on the rock. He had not gazed up the wall more than a few seconds before he squalled out "There's a man, see him? See the man?" so sud denly that I whe. ed around quick, thinking that he saw a sure enough man pointing his gun at us. After a little coaxing I soon saw "the man." He was formed by a broad brown stripe of rock, about 5 feet across, and 15 feet high, tapering inward at the shoulders forming a neck and outward again forming a head, had on a loose robe, and was stooping forward slightly, exhibit ing a very good face, witti sharp, long nose, and beard trimmed to a point. It resembled the man at my side so much that if he had on a loosegown of a mud brown color the resemblance would have been complete. While I was de ciphering the different points about the -"man" in the bridge, the Israelite again yelled out "Oh see the sheep, the sheep, look at the sheep," and I thought he was going to dance the Fisher's Horn pipe. If he had found a real $5 gold piece he could not have been more de lighted. He said "these things have I discovered, the discovey is mine, mine alone, no one knew anything of- them before." He seemed to be so serious about it, that I was thinking that he rnight go.up to the office and demand an interest in the Bridge Company for his discoveries. He went so far as to say they ought to give him $5 for the new discoveries, and that they ought to have him around to make discoveries for them. I encouraged him to go in and win. I could see the sheep very plainly, and saw it about the same time that he did, and called his attention to its ears, one of them, the left one seemed to be leaning forward, in a lis tening attitude. The sheep is lying down directly in front of the old man, man, and near his feet, and forms a good picture. It appears that the old man is stooping forward to the sheep, and the sheep seems to be listening to him. As this picture in the rocks has no name that I have heard of I gave it the name of "The good Shepherd and the Lamb." It was not long before my friend the Israelite made another discovery. This time it was a woman with an abundance of skirts, and an old lady's cap on her head. She seemed to be pushed up into a crevis or corner, as if she was not a distinct enough character, and had been shoved back out of the way. I named this "Mother Hubbard in the Cubbard." We also discovered the profile of a man's face, just above the Shepherd and the Lamb -a little to the right. For want of a better name, I called this John the Baptist's head, as nothing but the head was in sight. The eagle is directly in the centre of the arch overhead, and from tip to tip of wings it appears to be about 28 feet, and from head to tail about 25 feet. The Good Shepherd and the Lamb are about'75 or 100 feet up the wall under the bridge on the left hand side. There are two black objecting stones which answer for the Shepherd's feet. The sheep is close to the man, about seven feet away. Mother Hubbard is further up on the right, about 175 feet from the bottom. She with her skirts is about 15 or 20 feet long. Can't see her feet. The arch of the bridge is about 80 or 90 feet wide, and about 30 feet thick. A wagon road runs over it, and one might ride over it and never notice it for the trees. The walls on the left side entering under the bridge are almost perpendicular without a break,and solid rock, mostly black rock. It is said that George Washington wrote his initials on that wall, about 15 or 20 feet up. I examined very closely for it, but was unable to discover it even with theA as sistance of the Israelite. It looks like a matter of impossibility to scale that wall 3 feet, much less 15. On the right side the wall has some very small and shallow ledges that go up 40 or 50 feet. They are called some one's stairway, I have forgotten his name. He made the perilous climb up these .rocks 50 feet and came safely down, and they were given his name. It is impossible to climb these rocks, but the great trouble would be in getting down. And it would take more nerve than the aver age man posssto try it. I climbed up about 15 feet to see how it went. I got along all right, and picked up .a shell in momento of the trip, 15 feet up the wall. But when I started down it was quite different from going up, and I felt that I would not have been 50 feet up for all the bridge is worth. There is always water trickling down the wall, and causes it to be very dangerous to climb. There is a branch running under the bridge, which forms a small pool under the centre of bridge; it falls down the mountain into this deep ravine. About i of a mile above the bridge this .stream falls over the rocks in a broad thin stream, so thin that the rocks can be seen through it. This in called the bridal veil. We made no discoveries on the right hand side of the walls, except the stairway. The space between the walls at the bottom under the bridge is about 80 feet, at ends of the arch about 125 feet apart, arch and walls solid rock. The stream has adozen or so large boulders in it between the walls, which have fallen in the past, no one knows how many years ago. The last one fell in 1890. It is aboulder that is4 feet high 4or more feet thick, in sight, don't know how much of it is buried. It will weigh many tons. Some of them are larger than this one. It is easy to see where they have fallen from at different times. The places look fresh, as if they had broken through and fallen in the lost year or so. Seams can be distinguished in diffe~r ent places. And it looks like the bridge will eventually fall away piece by piece, until the whole thing tum bles in. I noticed on the left hand wall, a very large, tall piece or column of stone, that resembled an obelisk in shape. This column is apparently al most detached from the wall, except right at the bottom of it. It seems to be at least 90 feet high, and about 15 or 20 feet across, by four or five thick. It looks like it may fall at any moment. It seems that it would certainly fall if water gets behind it and freezes in the winter time. If it ever does fall, it will effectually put a stop to people going under the bridge from that side at least, unless it be cleared away. It looks like nature is preparing to close up the entrance. There are other large boulders on the top of the walls on the other side of the bridge, that look as if they could be pushed off. A deep ravine leads to the bridge from either side, and the walls almiost without exception are ~cold bare rock, with only here and there a crevice or ledge where a bush can get hold or vines grow. It appears that this bridge, in ages gone by, may have been twice as wide, on the under side at least, as it now is. It looks as if "MOTHERS' FRI END"I e j*Mothers: j lakbs Child Birth Easys hortens Labor, . Endorsed by the Leading ph,,sias L ATLANTA. GA.e SOLDa g era LARGE PAINFUL UL , On Limb.

Speedily Cured by Cuticura Remedies. b In the summer of 1888, a sore came on the feshy part of my right leg, not far from the shin bone. It C continued to increase in size, and eventually formed e a large ulcer three inches long by two wide. I em ployeda regular physician, but he gave me no relief. It was very pinful, and eventually part of the flesh t to the bone dropped out. After suffering with it e for six months I was induced to try the CUTcun RBmnZs. At this time I was completely help less, unable to walk without crutches, and suf- a fered greatly. In about a week the sore began to c show signs of improvement, and eventually was completely healed. Another sore then broke out on r my instep, but the same treatment soon cured that. I was indebted solely to the CUricuRA REUEDtES for my restoration to health. M leg is now as well as it ever was, and since then I have not been trou bled with sores. D.

Nothing like it for Weak Lungs. 50 or 75 feet at least has fallen away. This deep and narrow ravine runs be tween these two rock walls for several hundred feet. If the Obelisk, or column on the left ever falls, it will very likely shake down a considerable portion of the bridge. There is enough weight in that column to shake a mountain when it falls, as the base of it is about 100 feet above the bottom of the ravine, it would have this distance to fall if it should break loose before touching bottom. I would not fancy being in this neigh borhood when it does fall, if it ever does. It will cause quite an earthquake I imagine. I took these notes while I was under the bridge that I think ougit to be in eluded in the list of the wonders of the world. It is beyond the power of my pen to do justice to a description of the superb and awful grandeur of the Nat ural Bridge of Virginia. JOHN R. M. The Road to Success. A prosperous merchant, in a recent conversation, related how his life was changed by a simple performance of duty. "I was clerk behind the counter of a large retail store in Boston, at a small salary. I had been out of work some time, and when I secured the position In Boston I was thankful, and made a mental promise that I would perform my duties thoroughly. I had been working for two days with poor suc cess; trade had been quiet, and it was difficult to get any customers. I felt somewhat down-hearted because my counter had been idle for some time. Everything was either too light, or too dark, and if the color was selected for his satisfaction, the 'quality' was not what he desired. I have a quick temper, and at times during the trans action I felt that I could strangle the customer; but I quickly curbed my temper and went at him tooth and nail. I felt that my reputation as a salesman was at stake, and it was a question of conquer or to be conquered. At last I made the sale, and with it came a great satisfaction; but I was not done with the man yet. I wanted to sell him more. He said something about sending his wife around to look at some dress goods. I promised to send samples of new patterns as they arrived. The customer thanked me, and said: "'It has taken you a long time to sell me a few goods. Are all of your customers as bard to please as I?" "'It takes some customers but a short time to make their select'ons, while others wish to go slower; we are bound to please t bem all,' I an swered. " 'Does it pay your house to devote so much time to so small a sale ?' he inquired again. "'Yes,' I replied. 'I have taken pains to give ynu what you want. I know you will finel t he goods as I say. You will have cozilidence and come again, and the next time it will not take so long.' "After getting his package he walked out of the store. In three days I mailed samples of the new dress goods to his wife, and the circumstance passed entirely out of my mind. In about a month I was transferred to another counter and received a slight advance in wages. Much to my as tonishment, I was taken away from this department after only a month or six weeks' trial, and placed in another position. I could not believe that I was not giving satisfaction, because with each change an increase of wages was made. One morning I was in formed that Mr. B1. wished to see me. I went to the office with some surprise and fear. I was mnore surprised when I saw sitting beside my employer my customer of a few months back. He proved to be the moneyed partner of the concern, whose oither business interests kept him away from the dry-goods store almost entirely, and he was known to but few of his employees, a! though he knew that I was a new man as soon as lhe saw me, and thought to see what metal I walmade of. That he was satisfied is proved by his mak ing me a buyer of the several depat t ments where I sold goods. My pros perity began with the tough customer, and now I thank goodness that I g6t him, and that I did not show my dis position to strangle him."

The Democratic National Committee ave issued the following address to ae people of the United States: "The democratic national committee Dngratulates the country on the result f the recent State elections in Maine, 'ermont and Arkansas. In Arkansas, < le combined opposition, after so many xtravagant claims, fell st ort by over ),000 of the vote of the Democracy i lone. This has brought dismay to the I ombination in the South and its ma ipulators in the North. In Maine and . Termont the contest was conducted istinctly on national issues. The repub- i cans appealed for votes in these States n the ground that 'the size of the lurality would exert a great moral in Luence on the campaign in other 1 tates,' and that the poll would be practically our vote for president.' imilar appeals summoned to their aid il the potent resourcesof their national rganization, with its exhaustless trea ury and its splendid equipment of rators of national fame. With an ever avoring force at their command, except ublic opinion, with no organization of heir opponents save that made up vithin the States by the minority iarty, which has been out of power for rears, the campaign of our adversaries or a triumphant test of the vote in hese States, so carefully planned and k thoroughly and so forcefully exe ;uted, has ended in conspicuous dis s:er. Our friends everywhere are en i:led to take fresh courage from these sults. They mean that the strong endency of public sentiment is with ,he Democracy and that the people of he country are prepared to enforce 'ather than reverse the verdict which hey rendered in 1890.

The Directoire being hat period of French history which )receded the coronation of Napoleon [, and of his wife, Josephine, leads iaturally to the Empire and Josephine ityles, concerning which there is also L great deal of interest manifested. An )ther favorite variation will be the Recamier costume, taking its appella ion from the famous lady of that name, who is doubly celebrated for her beauty ;nd her friendship with Mme. de Stael. rhe old-time balloon sleeve, another reminiscence of that epoch, will be much in vogue this Fall. Many people use the expressions Directorie, Empire, Recamier without fully realizing what these terms signify, and are conse quently apt to err in their endeavor to adopt the latest novelties. A careful perusal of a first-class Fashion Maga zine like La Mode de Paris Album of Fashion or La Couturiere will furnish a satisfactory explanation of the differ ences between these historical costumes. These Journals not only illustrate all modifications of these sundry styles, buc also give full lengtk descriptions of the materials to be used with appropri ate trimmings, and reproduce as well the latest novelties in millinery and hat ornaments.
