Father Hyacinthe has addressed from Rome
a letter to DIR. Dollinger, in which he says
that the time of words is past and that of ac-
ton come. He denominates the Infalliblists
''sect," the eyergrowiug boldness of which
has gone SO far as to contemplate the estab
lishment of new Catholic faith. The
"schism" exists, he says, with the Papacy at
Rome, whose 'unmeasurable professions" are
growing stronger and stronger" The letter
terminates: Courage, great and noble heart |.
Be blessed for having offered yourself sponta-
neously to the danger for the House of Israel.
The strong ones have disappeared from among
us, and have gone to rest, but Jehovah has
raised you in your old days for new combats
and new victories"

This being the day appointed for the deco
ration of the graves of those who died in the
rebellion, its observance for that purpose
will be general. The ceremony will be a
fitting token of respect for those who died for
their country, and impress upon the youth
the duty of patriotism.

The Chicago Tribune says; "In one sense
Mr.. yallandigham has committed burglary,
for he has broken into the Republican ward
robe and stolen all the old clothes he could
lay his hands on. The question is, whether
he and his party will be thoroughly disguised
in their new garments, or whether they will
be recognized, arrested, and brought to JUS
tice for larceny"

The jury in the case of Foster, the New
York street car murderer, found verdict of
guilty of murder in the first degree, but rec
commended the prisoner to mercy. The oper-
alton of capital punishment was seen in this
case in the difficulty at first of getting jury,
and then after the verdict in this recommen-
dation to mercy. The law operates against
the certainty of punishment, the instructive
aversion of the human mind to hanging fast
ening upon any subtertuge to allow the crimi
nal to escape,so that it is only in the most g
gravated cases that murderers suffer the pen
atty for their crime. Better make the penal
ty lighter and its infection more certain.

1t seems to me that the general plan pro.
posed for locating and building the city
School.houSes might be reconsidered and
improved. | would suggest that q lager
number of smaller houses be built, and that
one be located on Union Hill, one on Church
Hill, one in Rockets, one between the
Dock and Central depot, one on Council
Chamber Hill, one on Cd street near Leigh,
one near the City Spring, one near Broad
and Adams streets, one near Bacon's Quar-
ter branch, one i'll Sidney, one on Oregon
Hill, one near the corner of 9th and Byrd
streets, and one near the Fair Grounds
making thirteen, instead Of three or four.
These would be one-story buildings. and
could be built of brick, to accommodate
say two hundred pupils, which is quite
enough for any locality. To bring together
six hundred children under ono roof in a
city SO widely spread out would be very OBJ
iectionable on many accounts. Many of the
children would have too far to walk, and
would lose too much time in bad weather /;
and to congregate SO many in one place
would be aalIeng up too many d1scor2Gnt el-
en,entS, and would have demoralizing eff
feet; whereas, if n choice OF schools existed
within reasonable distance, parents might
select the one where the children would
better know each other, and better diScip-
line could be secured and many other adj
vantaees would be found in this system.
Twelve of these houses could be built for
$50. 900, to be devoted by the taxpayers to
this object.
The City Council, who have been honor
ed with the disposition of these taxes,
should look well to 1t that this subject be
well considered before they make so large
IN expenditure out Of the money OF q COM
| munity so poor rs we are now.

CHESTERFIELD CoURT.-An adjourned ses-
sion of this court will commence this morn.
ing. 1t is believed that the first case will be
that OF the writ of error applied for by
counsel for Wilkes and Morris, convicted
of larceny and sentenced to stripes. There
are great many civil cases of importance
to be tried-one OF more in which the town
of Manchester Is interested.
INJUNcTIoN.-It was rumored in town
yesterday that the Messrs. Mayo had ap'
plied to the secretary Of tho Board of Trus
tees for q copy Of all the records in the
bridge question, with q view to eDjoinins
| the town fathers from further proceeding
| in bridge-building but we understand tina
| the true object was not to do this, but tt
prevent the condemnation Of too much o
Che Mayo property, across which this bridge
must pass.
Town ELEcTIoN.-It is not believed tina
| the town election will take place before th'
| regular election in May. Before the cleo
ton can take place there must be regis
tration, and we trust the Conservative part,
| will commence ut once the work OF organl
cation.
| BRIEFs.-The Spring Hill property is no
| taken in by the extension Of the corporal
| limits.
| The Danville Railroad Company is build
ing we'll near Belle Isle, to prevent lano
slides. One is needed at Manchester eros:
| ing.
The R. E. Lee Club are building mic
little house on Sharp's Island to replace th
one washed off by the flood last October.
| Work has so far progressed on the court
house as to allow the lower window-frame
to be put in.
Religious services at the Baptist and Nj
thodist churches every night this week
and on Friday night ut the Episcop'
church.
A number of persons united themselye
with the churches in Manchester on Sunday
The street to be graded and improved b
| the Bridge Commissioners is Sth, beyon
McDonough, when a new street leading
the bridge will be laid out.
BY the extension Of the corporate limit
| it is belived that the Conservative majorit
will be increased one hundred.

ing tomorrow night at7H O'Clock, at Tow

DEATH OF AN OLD HOTEL PROPRIETOR
Many in our community were shocked yes.
terday morning to see upon the bulletin
boards an announcement of the sudden
death of George j. Scammell, which oc.
cured on Sunday morning. The deceased
was portly man, and had two or more
strokes Of apoplexy previous to Friday last,
when he had an attack of the same disease,
and sank rapidly under it.
Mir. Scammell was well known and re.
spected throughout the State, his occupa.
ton having brought him into connection
with people Of all classes, but more partic'
ularly with the travelling public. He was
a native of Surry county, and was at differ
ent times proprietor Of Jarratt's Hotel, Pc.
tersburg, and of the St. Charles, Powhatan,
and Monumental Hotels, Richmond. AS O
host he was always popular, and made many
friends, while in private life he was gene.
rally esteemed and beloved.

4 SINGULAR Yesterday man
named Miller, a resident somewhere on
CaldwelPs run, came to South Wheeling on
business, driving or riding, we know not
which, large gray horse. While leading
the animal down 4th street in that ward
Mr.. NJ. became provoked at him and began
to administer summary chaStisements. In
mediatcly opposite where this took place
there was q flight of steps leading to Gel
lar. with the door covering the area open.
The horse in attempting to escape the blows
of his owner backed upon the pavement,
and continuing The backward movement,
dropped into the cellar-way. The area was
not more than four or five feet square by rs
many deep, so that he was compressed into
about as small a compass as possible. After
a few struggles, and with the assistance
of his master who was now considerably
frightened, the horse made his entree into
the cellar, and when we saw him was stand
ing erect and surveying the narrow passage
way through which he had reached his new
quarters. He did not appear to have sus-
tanned any injury in gaining an entrance
thereto. 4 crowd of men, women, and
children quickly gathered at the scene of
this singular incident, and all INDUCED in a
hearty laugh at the horses predicament
and the terribly excited condition of Mr.. NJ.
| After the sport had been enjoyed for 4 time
the extrication of the animal became mat
ter of serious consideration. It would not
do to let him remain where he was. To
| force him back through the opening by
which he had gained admittance was an
impoSSibility. Some one informed Mr.. Mill
| Ter that he would be compelled to purchase
the house, and thus overcome the diff
| ticulty. 10 this he readily assented,
as he did to almost every other
suggestion made. Another proposed dig
| ging Il trench from the cellar to the middle
Of the street, so that bis horseship might
make his exit from his underground prison
in that way. As our time in that region
was limited, we could not remain to see the
problem solved, but the last plan mention
| ed was TO be adopted after all other eXpe-
dcntS had failed. When we left there was
q general gathering of plank, poles, and ca
bles, preparatory to entering upon the
work of eXtrlcaLing the animal from his
novel position. The crowd was rapidly in
creasing in numbers, and we met on our
way to the cars troops of people tlocking
to the great centre of attraction. Whether
| success crowned the efforts of the rescuers,
and by what mode the work was accom-
| rlished, we are without any reliable intor-
nation at the present writing Wheeling
lntelltgencer, 18th.
