cy told some strange tales on itself We leern
from the Parkersburg Gazette that during

man, "a lio' 'b.ackguard,' &c, were banded
about, some of them hurled at the presiding
officer. From the charges and confession o
members. some of the delegates aud asPrants
were accused of Fraud. Bribery. Corruption,
&c, such as must nculraize whatever OF char
acter or responsibility the Convention was ex
pected to confer upon its choice for Congress
We make these remarks more IN sorrow than
reproach In fact. so far as we have had an
opportunity ofjudging, the Democracy quite
as sick as we are. ofa convention from which,

members retired in disgust-oihers, IN DIS

BOARD OF PUBLIc WoRKs.-Samuel Price
merous citizens OF Richmond, and members Of
the Legislature. ameng whom we recognize
the Senator from the Amherst District and
the Delegate from Nelson, expresses his will
lingness to serve as a member of the Board
of Public Works from the End district. Mr.
Price is gentleman ofgrent practical sense,
energy of character and liberaty of Vows
In his letter Of acceptance he says:
The friends of Internal Improvement, by
the legislation of the last few years, especially
Of the last legislature have had imposed upon
them heavy responsibilities. Large Sppro
prlations of money have been made for Inter-
nal improvements, and it essentially depends
upon The judicious application of these funds
To the purposes of their destination whetl erthe
Just expectations of the Country will be realiz-
ed and the sanguine hopes of the people be
sustained. Ifthey are wasted or misapphed
the cause and the friends OF Improvement must
suffer.
But little less Interesting is this view to tho-e
who have hitherto opposed all appropriations
OF public money To the purposes of Internal
Improvement, now that the appropriations are
made. The debts contracted must he paid,
and II the profits of the works in which the
State holds SO large an interest can be made
adequate to the payment Of the debts, the peo.
pie of every class will be relieved Of heavy
burden. This can only be done by judici.
Gus expenditure of the money appropriated,
and wise superintendent of the works of a
public character.

The NATIONAL MISUNDERSTANDING
was debate recently in the Senate on prop.
ostion to publish the speeches of the Senators
in the National Intelhgencer, as well as in the
Globe q Union. The discussion produced the
following compliment to the Intelligencer.and
the subsequent hit at the Senator from Califor.
MIA from the Hon. Mr.. Butler of South Caro-.
lima
The Intelligencer," said Mr. Butler ais the
first paper | ever saw-the fast that | ever
brought from the post office, more than forty
years ago. l remember, in 1907, reading the
editorials of the Inieligencer, by way Of learn
ing to read; and in 1Sl2-'l3, | was stirred by
the perusa of its columns. l never see that
paper without Its being associated in my mind
with former and better times"
Mr.. Weller, lin his seat) That was before
| was born.
Mr.. Butler. Yes, sir and think we had
better times then than now, since you were
born. Laughter.
The sentiment uttered by the Senator from
South Carolipa. is one the Baltimore Ameri.
can thinks,that will be cordially responded to
by thousands of our citizens. The National
Intelgencer has become one of our country's
iandmarks;-nay, it may almost be said to be
