"WAIT FOR THE WAGON y

The following extract from the Virginia
Gazette OF 1893, read at the Wheeling h. r.
Celebration, the rising generation are incli-
ned TO laugh at:
"The Baltimore g. Ohio Wagon Company,
with capital of 100000 Zone fourth of
which is paid in) transport goods between
Wheeling and Baltimore. One wagon de-
parts and arrives daily from each Of these pla-
ces with load weighing from % TO O. tons,
and occupying eight days upon the road and
arrangements are in progress to increase the
number OF daily arrivals and departures from
one to three wagons, and eventually to five"
This arrangement was the origin of the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company,
which, when, their road is fully compile
ted and stocked, will represent capital OF
S20,000,0o0. The distance which the Map.
ons made in eight days will now be accom-.
pished in one by the cars with 300 instead OF
p tons for load Baltimore and Wheeling
didn't "wait for the wagon"
Neither towns, cities, nor individuals can
keep pace with the course of empire, if they
swat for The wagon The iron snews of the
locomotive are fast taking the place of horse
flesh, and the noise of the 'sgueaking lumber
wagon is becoming hushed by the hum o
myriads of cars.
The town that will not move to aid in any
great enterprise, or encourage Improvements
supposing all will come right eventually, i:
"waitng for the wagon" The indivdua
who sits down in his store or factory suppos
ing that business will come to him without
letting the people know he sells or manufuc
lures, is waiting for the wagon" The mar
who don't take the papers, thinking it's ar
expense without benefit, and that he will
"learn the news any how" is waithing for al
old "rusty wagon, that will never reach him
In short it won't do in any position IN life
nowadays, to swat for the wagon"

SCHOOL EXAMINATION.

We, the Directors and Citizens of School
district No. IL, Washington Valley, Mead
township, Belmont Co. o., after being soli-
cited on the 22d of March, by Mr.. JOHN IR-
WIN, the honorable distinguished Teacher of
said District, to participate in the glorious
cause Of Education, in seeing and hearing our
children go through the different branches
taught in said school; and being very inter-
estiugly entertained through the examination
OF the pupils, which consisted of reading, ar
ithmetic, mental and written; English gram
mar, geography, and astronomy; after which
was read many well composed compositions,
and also speeches very interesting and well
spoken by the pupils.
Whereas Mr.. JOHN IRWIN, by his unwaver-
ing energy and perseverance, has, in our O.
pinion, accomplished much for our children,
in disseminating much useful knowledge in
our district, together in accomplishing many
other moral and necessary traits in our chill
drcn; therefore be it
Resolved, That we, the Directors and Cti-
zens aforesaid feel it duty we owe the hon.
oruble teacher to pass vote of thanks to him
for the able manner in which he has conduct.
ed his school and in promoting the cause OF
Education, and effectng peace and harmony
among our children, together with us as
neghbors. And be it further
Resoired, That we feel it duty as parents
to say to our children, Well done, good and
faithful; you have won by your good conduct
and in our faithful studies, the applause of
your well esteemed Teacher and your parents,
and every one around you, for the uncommon
progress you have made in education and
good conduct. And be it further
Rcsolred, That we challenge any other
school of like age and practice, in the Town
ship or County to excel ours.
We have had nineteen months of school
taught in our District since it has become a
district, whichis about two years, which time
MIR. IRWIN has been the Teacher. Our dis.
trict is but an infant, as i: were, and the chill.
dren that compose the school, as a general
thing, are but infants in age as well as prac-
tice; but when we see the progress they have
made during the short time they have attend
ed school, we would almost challenge any o.
ther school. be they young or old, to compete
with them. Some that compose this school,
three or four months ago scarcely knew let
ter in the alphabet, now can read in almost
any book that is used in our language.
On motion, Resolved, That copy of the
foregoing be forwarded to the Editors of both
our County papers, for publication in the
same. DIRECTOR & CITIZENS.

Speech of Hon. Truman Smith.

In this age of Fllibusterism, Manifest
d estiny, foolish g. extravagant Congression-
al and Legislative action, and Locofocoism
genenally, it is really refreshing 10 get hold
of speech containing good, old fashioned
common sense. Such speech we give our
readers in full, to-day. We hope they will give
it an attentive Perusal. The subject treated
of is one of deep and abiding importance, and
must soon claim the attention of the people
at large.
Itsa singular notion entertained by many
that it is all constitutional and right to spent
millions for the purpose of acquiring territory
but that it is wholly unconstitutional to dc
any thing TO make the territory valuable, af
ter it is obtained. But, read the speech, ant
reflect calmly upon its sentiments.

A MOTHERS HERoIsM.-The Cincinnati
Commercial states that during the fire of Sat-
urday morning, in that city, mother and
three children who lived the upper part of one
OF the burning buildings were almost surroun-
ded by the flames. Taking her children with
her she ascended to the roof, and here the
only means of escape that presented itself
was to leap an alley, six feet in width; to the
roof of another building. This feat she ac-
complished several times-holding child in
her arms, making the desperate leap, and re-
turning for another. In this way she saved
her little family.

Manufactures of all kinds will soon flourish
in our midst. The sooner they are in opera
ton the better for themselves, and the coun-
try at large. Our coal fields are vastly more
valuable than the gold mines of California or
Australia-for an Industrious population, en-
gagged in producing the necessaries and com
forts of life, is precisely the people to give
wealth, morals, and vigor to country. And
this is the population which cur coal fields
and railroad facilities will bring into our
midst.
