LANDS on THE PANHANDLE

We commend the following 10 The
prayerful consideration OF those who
don't want any more railroads. We
clip from the Washington Reviec:
"The Importance of railroads, es'
pecially through coal districts, has
been fully verified along the route of
the Panhandle railroad, in the northern
end Of this county. The advance Of
lands in that section is by no means
confined to the immediate vicinity OF
the track, but is felt for miles on either
side. The following sales illustrate the
handsome prices realized by land.
owners in that section: The Daniel
Hoffman farm, near Noblestown, was
sold to Messrs. Lee g. Marshal, OF
Pittsburgh, on the 9th ult.. for the sum
of $32,750, or about 1868 per acre.
The Samuel McFarland farm, near
Bulger, was purchased on the 18th ult.,
by Mr.. Smith, of Allegheny county, tor
$2l3 per acre The tract contains one
hundred and fifty acres. and aggregated
the handsome sum of 49,, 900. The
land recently owned by John Jones, de
ceased, situated two and a half miles
south of Bulger, was sold few days
ago for 500 per acre. The farm Of
VIM. Keys, in the same neighborhood
was bid to Sll0 at auction, but not sold
1t is held at $3.50 These lands, prior
to the building OF the Panhandle road,
were valued at from $50 to $75 per acre

THE RIGHT SPIRIT.

A gentleman told US, yesterday, that
he had not much ready money, but
that he had determined to subscribe
ten per cent Of what he is worth toward
the building of the Railroad Bridge.
He would do this, even if he never ex'
pected to get dollar. in the way OF
dividends, for he was sure the compile
ton Of the bridge would enhance the
value Of his property much more than
ten per cent.
This is the right view and the right
spirit. The estimated value OF the real
and personal property of the city OF
Wheeling is, in round numbers, $780,
100000. Ten per cent Of this amount
is S3,OOO,0OO. The half of $3,OOO,OOO
but the small sum Of FIVE per cent OF
the value of the property in the city
divided between the three enterprises
looking to opening the Northwest to
our trade, would secure the completion
of all of them. Does any intelligent
man doubt that the entire property in
the city, land county, too, for that mat
ter,) would be enhanced in value on an
average of five per cent, the day the
bridge and the two railroads are ready
for business

pecially DESTROYS of presenting himself
before the Convention as the advocate
OF the honor and good faith of the
State. His sentiments were noble and
praiseworthy,' and his history of the
circumstances under which West Vir-
ginia was admitted as State into the
Union, he being then Senator from
Virginia, was listened to with profound
interest and attention. His only error
was in insisting with so much emphasis
that it was our duty to re-affirm this
obligation in the same words in which
it is embraced in our present Constitu-
ton, whilst be was forced to admit, as
did every gentleman who concurred
with him, that the reaffirmance Of
that provision did not, in the very
slightest degree. add to, nor did it's
omission impair, the face of our exist
ing obligations.
l see by the Baptist Record, a re-
ligious paper published in this place,
that it will, in its next issue, publish
the substance OF some remarks made
by Mr.. Faulkner on the subject of the
Virginia debt. Rev. Mr.. Hardwicke,
one Of the editors of that paper, is daily
at the reporters table, and gives very
correctly, in substance, the remarks
which he reports; and if you will copy
these remarks in your paper, and as
they shall be correctly reported as they
were delivered in the Convention, your
readers will see the injustice Of ascribing
to all who did not support Mr.. Willey's
views the faint and infamy Of repudia-
lion. Very respectfully,
A MEMBER OF THE COMMITTEES.

POLITICAL DISABILITIES.

A week or so ago, Mr.. BINGHAM, OF
Ohio, introduced resolution in the
House of Representatives, directing the
Clerk of the House to have prepared
an alphabetical list OF the persons for
the relief of whose political disabilities
bills are now pending. In accordance
with that resolution, a number OF writer's
have been set at work and the lists are
being made as rapidly as possible.
There are between twelve and twenty
thousand names now waiting action by
the House, and each Monday adds
largely to the number.

The Louisville Ledger, spicy and
able paper, died the other day after
having been in operation about one
year. 1t was started with view OF
breaking down the Courisr-JOurnal, and
the result is here stated:
Adjutant J. A. Dawson was the
originator of the Ledger, and from its
first number has been in controlling
spirit. His experiment has cost his
friends probably some thirty or forty
thousand dollars, but it has not been
wholly lost if its fate impresses men
ambitious to lead the public that in
these times, when the cost OF publishing
good newspapers is so enormous, it Is
not possible for any enterprise TO sue
coed which is founded on vindictive-
ness or prejudice or personal dislikes;
that politicians and political Juntas
cansot support newspapers; that the
only way for a paper TO succeed is as
a legitimate business enterprise.

FROM CHARLESTON.
West Virgtnia's Proportion Of the
Debt Of virgInia-NO Reputation.

CHARLESTON, W. VA. Marth 4.
The Wheeling htsWgsncer of the
9th ult. has just reached US, in which
I perceive the editors OF that paper
strenuously maintain that the Conven-
ton by its action has virtually repudi-
ated the liability OF this State for its
equitable proportion of the public debt
of Virginia. There is no foundation
for this idea. am sure there is not a
single man in the Convention who
would for moment advocate any such
idea. There were few men in the
Convention, such as Messrs. Wiley
Wheat and Fitzhugh, who took into
their heads that it was their duty to re-
affirm the eighth section Of the eighth
article Of the present Constitution on
that subject. There were other men,
such as Messrs. Faulkner, Jackson, OF
Wood, Raymond, and several
others, who thought there was
no duty upon the part Of this
Convention to repeat and re-atfirm that
provision, and that there were substan-
tial objections to its repetition in that
language under the circumstances Of
our present controversy with Virginia,
but there was not member upon the
floor, unless, indeed, it might be infer
reutislly argued from the remarks Of
Mr.. God, of Barbour, who did not in
the strongest terms concede our obligs-
ton to pay an equitable proportion
of that debt, and our readiness to
do 30 whenever it should be ascer.
tanned by a fair and satisfactory settle
ment. There was but single member
upon the floor who assumed the ground
that West Virginia did not owe dol
lar, and that was J. Marshall Hagans,
the Republican Delegate from Moeon-
gala county. Mr.. Wiley seemed es-

Our citizens have not forgotten how
long and earnestly the REGISTER labored
to convince them that it was to their
interest to build Street Railway how
slow the people were to comprehend
the advantages to be derived; how i'm
possible it was to convince them that
the stock would ever prove profitable;
and, consequently, how hard it was to
raise the money to build the road.
With the four or five years expert
ence we have had with it, does any one
doubt that, could the building Of it be
now made an original proposition, the
money necessary would be subscribed
by our citizens in six hours time.
We shall have the same experience
with the Railroad Bridge. 1t will be
built, and the stock will be equal to
Gas stock 10 a score of Years.

The discreet silence that it may have
imagined would yield it "golden" re-
suits, which the MtsNigsncer has SO long
maintained on the Bridge question, was
broken yesterday. We congratulate
it; and hope it has changed its mind
since it expressed the opinion that the
action Of the Legislature in requiring
railroads proposed to be built, in part,
by Wheeling money, should run into
the city, would defeat the building OF
all, or any, roads to the Northwest.
