MASON COUNTY county, as already
announced, has done the mott ungracious
act OF refusing subscription to the Ches-
apeake and Ohio railroad, although its
western terminus was within her limits at
the aourishing town of Point Pleasant. 1t
is easy for the company to construct its
Big Sandy branch and leave the people of
Mason to welt, or themselves raise the
means to build the Point Pleasan. branch.

Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad


By reference to the proceedings OF the
stockholders of tho Central railroad, al
Their meeting yesterday, it will be seen
that the subject of modification OF the
contract with the commissioners OF the
Covington and Ohio railroad was referred
| to a committee. This committee last nlgh|
adopted the following resolutions, when
will be reported to the stockholders meet
ing to-day, and we doubt not will be adopt
ed. The reduced minimum subscription
proposed in thcsc resolutions would allow
a more prompt commencement of work
upon the road: and commcncement-an
earnest of our purpose to build the road
is. we are convinced, all that is needed to
command confidence and insure its steady
prosecution and early completion:
Rssolced That the Board of Directors be in
structed TO enter into L new contract with the
commissioners of Virginia and West Virginia
for the construction OF the Covington and
Ohio railroad, with the following stipula-
tons:

pleted in the time and manner provided III the
charter.
g The company TO guarantee four per cent.
scni-annual dividends upon any stock which
may be subscribed for the construction OF SAID
road after the completion of the road TO the
Ohio river.
). The company to borrow such sums OF
money, 1T u rate of interest not exceeding
eight per cent. per annum, rs may be neces-
sary III addition TO the funds arising from
stock subscriptions for the completion OF
said road and to execute n lien on its property
and revenues 10 secure the payment OF
the principal and interest of snch loans
Procided, That no portion of the work on the
Covington and Ohio railroad shall be put I'M
der con tract until three and Il half millions OF
dollars of stock shall have been subscribed
Prorided FURTHER, That subscriptions may be
received TO be applied to the construction OF
the work continuously from either END OF the
line.
Resolved, That the bonds of cities and coun-
ties, 1T ninety cents i'll the dollar, ana pear
ing eight per cent. per annum interest, con-

What Every Young Man Should DO.

l. Every young man should make the
most of himself intellectually, morally, so
cially and physically.
2. He should depend upon his own eff
forts to accomplish these results. .]
8. He should be willing to take advice
from those competent to give it, and tc
follow such advice, unless his own iudg-
ment or convictions, properly founded
should otherwise direct.
4. If he is unfortunate enough to have
rich and indulgent father, he must do the
best we can under the circumstances,
which will be 10 conduct himself very
much as though he had not these obsta-
cles to overcome. "'
p 5. He should remember that young
men if they live, grow old; and that the
habits of youth are, oftener than other
wise, perpetuated in the mature of man.
Knowing this fact, he should "govern
himself accordingly" 81
6. He should never, under any circum-
stances, be idle. IF he cannot find the
employment he prefers, let him come as
near his desires as possible-he will thus
soonest reach the object of his ambition.
s. All young men have "inalienable
rights" among which none is greater or
more sacred than the privilege to "be
somebody" "E" .

have heard of company of hunters
who caught a number of monkeys in the
forests of Brazil in the following amusing
way: They had lot of little boots just
large enough to be drawn easily over a
monkeys foot, and filled the bottoms with
pitch. With these they set out for the
woods, and soon found themselves under
the tree, where the monkeys went rattling
on over their heads, but never for mo-
ment removing their eyes from them. They
then placed the little boots where they
could be seen, and commenced taking off
their own boots. Having done this, they
let them stand always near the little boots.
All this the monkeys carefully noticed. The
hunters were too wise to attempt to catch
them by climbing the trees; they might
as well have expected to snatc ch the moon
as to lay hands on one of these little fellows.
They had an easier way than this, and
more effectual /; they simply sat down un-
der the trees while the little chatter boxes
were rattling on over their heads, but new
er for moment removing their eyes from
them. The hunters now taking up their
own boots, having carefully looked over
! them, drew them slowly one after the 9th
er upon their feet. Not movement es.
capped the observation of the monkeys. -
Having replaced their boots they hurried
away into tte thicket of undergrowth not
far off, where thy were hidden from the
sight of The monkeys, but where they could
see everything that happened under the
trees They left the small boots: all stand
ing in row. e'rr f
The monkeys soon descended from the
trees, and initiating the hunters, thrust
their feet into the boots set asa trap for
them, chattering and gesticulating all the
time, in great glee. L.'u taa Sd. .y7 '
AS soon as they were fairly in the boots,
out sprang the hunters from their hiding
places and rushed among them. The mon
keys affrighted, at once started for the trees
but only to find that they had destroyed
their powers of climbing by putting on the
boots. So they fell an easy prey to their
running enemies. This is the way the
monkeys were caught, and how many
young persons are caught in the same way.
In their desire to DO what they see others
doing, they fall into serious trouble, and
often bring upon themselves ruinous hab
its that follow them to the grave.
