like other bankGgshOuses in the lower part OF the

necessary small notes from Westslde bank further

a safeguard against robbery to accompany the
hank porter to the Clearing House in the morning,
and TO return with him at 1920 O'CLOCK after the
usual exchanges were made, and on several former
occasions this clerk has carried similar parcels or

A SENSIBLE WOMAN.

Of course there are thousands Of sensible
women who never soy anything on the wo-
men question, and show their sense by their
silence. But occasionally there is to be
found woman coveting newspaper notore'
ty, who takes womanly view of the woman
question Among them is Miss Aurora H.
c. Phelps. In a recent letter on this subject,
she says:
"The poor working. g.women do not, most
| of them, want the ballot; do not; believe
the result of putting the ballot in the hands
of woman at the present time would be dis
astrous in the extreme to herself and to the
| community. The time may come, | will
not say that it Is utterly impossible in the
| future, when the possession of the elective
| franchise would not harm women and set
| back the hands on the worlds dial Of pro,
press at least fifty years; but at present there
! is nothing | should more regret than the eX'
tension Of the ballot TO poor, ignorant, home
less women and to those who advocate te,
male suffrage or who desire the ballot,
say. we want bread and clothes and homes
I first, and after we can get as good pay ior
our work as the men do for theirs, and Just
as much pay for the same equal work, 1t Will
be time enough then for you to talk 10 US
about wanting the ballot. Almost all wo
men feel BY instinct that their need is mo-
Of the ballot, but Of homes.

The English newspapers are still discuss,
ing the relations existing between England
and the United States. The Standard says
the conduct Of America in the matter Of the
late treaty in the lapse Of time may be for.
gotten, but at present it is hardly fair to be
linked to feelings Of just indignation and
resentment. The Post says that any new
attempt for the settlement Of the Alabama
claims must come from the United States,
and hopes that due precaution will be taken
to secure England against accepting q treaty
almost without humanity, which will be re.
iected at last with contempt

commencement at Bethany.

BETHANY, W. Va, June %, '69.
Editors of the Register:
As l have seen no account of the
Bethany College Commencement in
your paper, as yet, thought few re-
marks in regard to it would not be I'M
acceptable at this late day. The Board
of Trustees met as usual on Wednesday,
Jure 10Th. The faculty were empow
cred to confer an additional degree
that of Bachelor of Science. This will
give young men who have dislike to
the dead languages an opportunity OF
obtaining thorough education in the
Physical Sciences, Mathematics and
Modern Languages. The exhibition of
the American Library Institute came of
Wednesday evening. The performances
we're all very good, especially the "Res
Future" of +. b. Wakefield, of Ohio.
The commencement exercises took place
Thursday, June 18th. The following
was the order:
English Salutstory, L. Bacon, No;
Latin Salutatory, j. l. Nelson, Mo-;
Howl o. Goodrich, Ohio; Custom, K. C.
Wilson, w. Va; Outward Bound, +. W.
Allen, w. Va; Monumental Instruction,
Jas. Harding, KY; Will it Hurt my Rep
utation! j. A. Williams, Ohio; Life is a
Scheme of Indirections, w. p. Ayls-
worth, Illinois; The Universal Stimulus,
T. B. Bird, Ohio; The Fate of Reformers,
G. T. Douglass, W. Va; The Mission of
Poetry, w. S. Billiard, Va; The Answer,
B. S. Dean, Wis; Wait, G. E. Shriver,
Pa; Truth, c. l.. Loos, w. Va; The
Century's Aloe Flowers To-day, A. T.
Gunneil, Mo-; LIE Monde d'anjourd hui
(French Oration) VIM King McAlister,
Tenn; Valedictory, J. b. Crenshaw, Va.
The first honor was divided between
J. |. Nelson and ]. B. Crenshaw, and the
second was given to l.. Bacon. The
orations were all of high order. We
would call attention TO those of w. S.
Billiard and A. T. Gunnell. The degree
of A. b. was conferred upon seventeen
young men. Six of them are intended
for the ministry, three for the law, one
as a civil engineer, and the rest teach
ers, &c. Politically, Democrats, IL;
Republicans, 6.
The exhibition of tho metropolitan
Society was held Thursday evening.
The performances consisted of Saluta-
tory, Orations, French and English,
Debate, Dissertation, Essays aud Dec
lamations. The speech of Mr.. r. w.
Thomas, of Texas, was pronounced to
be one of the finest delivered of all the
performances, surprising even the
efforts of Wednesday evening. The
Grafton of w. J. Loos deserves notice.
The defamation "Shamus O'Brien," by
F. J. Norton, would have done credit to
Prof. Kidd. The valedictory was de-
livered by Mr. WIN. King McAlister, of
Tenn, the President of the Society
1t was decidedly the finest valedictory
that we have heard for many years, and
il was so pronounced by impartial
Judges. 1t far exceeded the one deliv-
cred during the day in behalf of the
graduating class. l would like to add
more, but want of space forbids. Suf
flee 10 say, the occasion was one long to
be remembered in the annals of Beth
any May she witness many such com
mencements. UMATILLA.
