IS The Shepherdstown Lyceum, on
Friday evening last, discussed before a
large and attentive audience. the question,
Whether it is wise in a parent to labor
10 accumulate wealth in order 10 leave a
rich inheritance 10 his children" The
affirmative was ably maintained by
Messrs. G. Nj. Bel,zhoover and II. b.
Lee, and the oegative by Messrs. E. {.
Freel and R. n. Pendleton. No decis.
ion was made on the subject, though we
should like 10 have heard The opinion OF
the audience on the question. The Ly-
ceum is credit 10 our Town. and we are
surprised TO hear that so few Of our young
men are members of it. 1t would be an
advantage 10 them merely TO witness The
proceedings Of the Society.
