SPECIAL NOTICES.
Four Millions Of Inyallds

At the lowest computation there are never
less than four millions OF invalids In the
United States. OF this number probably
more than three-fifths have neglected the
ordinary precautions necessary for the
preservation of heath, and are suffering
the punishment due to their carelessness. if
the multitudes who are now afflicted with
biliousness, Indigestion, rheumatism, inter-
mittent fever, irregularities or the bowels,
general debility, nervous disorders, &c, had,
at the very first symptoms of indisposition
invigorated, regulated and purified their
systems with Hostetter's Stomach BitterS,
two-thirds Of them would at this moment
be performing the active duties Of life, UNI
annoyed by any ailment Of the body or the
mind.
This assertion Is made advisedly. 1t Is
founded on experience, and Is borne out by
the testimony OF q countless host OF wit
neSSeS, whose attestatiOns cover almost
every variety of disease, and extend over
period of about twenty years. or every
thousand persons who take the Bitters, as
a preventive OF the complaints above emu
merated, seven-eighths escape them entire
"; and of every thousand who are actually
attacked, and use the great Vegetable Tonic
as a remedy, three-tourths are radically
cured. These are not hap-haZard assertions,
but statistical facts. They are based upon
the results of inquiries made by more than
fifty thousand persons in various parts OF
the country, and upon the letters OF proml-
nent citizens OF every State, II might almost
be said OF every county in the Union.

From the Courier.l
We presume if there is a time when
an editor may properly use his own
columns for his own defense, it is when
a movement is made upon his works,
Of the character Of that now being
engineered against the editor Of the
Courier, by Messrs. D. D. 7. Fsrnsworth'
W. E. Stevenson, Tom Swami and
others of that crowd. 1t is well known
that these parties have for some
time been arranging raid upon the
public printer, with a view to the
manufacture of some choice political
capital for the coming campaign. In
concentrating their civilities upon that
official, they have attested in the most
complimentary manner, their recollec.
ton OF his attention to themselves. in
the days when political corruption
being at high tide in this State, they
rode in ease and confidence upon the
topmost wave. They have reminded
him that great public offenders can
neither forget nor forgive, and that so
far from accepting the retribution they
have received, as q means of grace
leading to repentance and amendment,

WEST VIRGINIA HAS NOT REPU
DATED HER DEBT.

We are satisfied that the Inteligencer
is entirely wrong and does great injus-
tlce to the State in assuming that the
Constitutional Convention has voted to
repudiate West Virginia's share OF Vir-
ginia's debt. The proceedings Of the
Convention in relation to this subject
cannot be fairly made to bear that con.
struction, and assuredly no good pur-
pose can be served by sending to the
world false statement so damaging in
its character and so destructive of West
virginia's good reputation for honesty
as is contained in the Iatelhgencer S
editorial article published yesterday
morning.
Our Charleston correspondent showed
yesterday that on the 18th inst, the
Convention had under discussion the
report OF the committee on Taxation
and Finance. The fifth section of that
report is as follows
5. No debt shall be contracted by
this State, except to meet casual deficits
in the revenue, to redeem previous
liability Of the State, to suppress insur-
rection, repel invasion, or defend the
State in time Of war; but the payment
Of any liability other than that for the
ordinary expenses of the State, shall be
equally distributed over a period of at
least twenty years.
This section Mr.. HAGANs moved to
amend by inserting a provision that
West Virginia should pay her equitable
proportion OF the State debt of Virginia.
when a.certained. Mr.. WHEAT offered
an amendment to the same effect, differ
ing only in the language employed.
Mr.. PRICE, Mr.. WILEY, Mr.. PENDLE-
TON. Mr.. ARMSTRONG, and the
gentlemen who had offered these
amendments favored their adop-
ton, but Mr.. HAeANs, notwithstand-
ing he had first proposed amending
the section under discussion, thought
that our obligation to pay an equitable
proportion OF the public debt OF Vir'
ginis rested upon moral grounds alone

The Radical PrOgramme-HOwt they
Hope 10 Defeat the constitution.

CHARLESTON, February 10.
Editors of the Register:
One thing is evident: there are
Radicals enough in the Convention to
proIons the session, at least two month";.
They want no new Constitution; the
present one suits them very well. With
the registration laws in force, it would
work harmoniously. They have ex-
pressed their object and desigu to defeat
the Democratic party this winter, by
rendering their acts as odious as posi-
Bile to the people. A casual observer
will notice this in all the Radical pro-
ceedings. On every occasion where
there is a proposition pending to adopt
a report OF a committee, one ofthe party
will Immediately propose an amend
ment which will give rise to an endless
discussion. Then another amendment
to the amendment, will be offered from
the came source. Then a general
debate will arise among themselves, un-
fortunately others participating, until
DAYS are consumed and all the amend
ments lost. This is the way they pro-
pose to consume time and prolong the
session of the Convention.
If by this means they could prevent
an adjournment until the first of May
their predictions would be realized.
The cost would be an item for consid-
Grafton. If they could get shadow of
evidence Of corruption in the party, it
would add great weight TO their cause.
For this purpose the whole ingenuity,
talents and rascality of the party at
the Capital has been exhausted in in
venting, connecting and maturing plans
to defeat, if possible, the Democratic
party. 1t is to be hoped the party will
see before it is too late that its saliva
ton depends on its own acts, and that
every exertion is to be made to destroy
the principles of Democracy and restore
the party of test oaths and registration
laws. Look and guard we'll against
the enemy Of republican government.

SENATE bill No. 6S, entitled "a bill
providing for certain publications fol-
the benefit OF the people" has been
passed by that body and is now before
the House of Delegates. We have not
seen the bill itself but believe that ii
requires notices Of Sheriff's sales, sales
OF delinquent lands, &C., to be published
in the newspapers Of the county. II
certainly ought to become a law. The
old practice of posting everything o.
this kind at the Court House door /:
away behind the times and no longer
gives to these matters the desired pub
licity. 1t used to answer tolerably well
when every voter in the county had to
20 to the Court House to vote, but even
then the information did not reach as
many persons as a county newspaper
does. At present, the door OF the
Court House is not seen once in the
year by one out of every ten citizens Of
the county, and the posting Of a notice
there to give it publicity is utterly
absurd. We hope the House Of Dele
gates will pass the bill.

THE OPERA HOUSE.

4 meeting is to be held at the Coun'
Gil Chamber this evening in furtherance
of the project for erecting an Opera
House. We learn that some seventy
five or more of our citizens have signed
a paper pledging themselves to take
stock ir the enterprise as soon as an
incorporation is effected. The meeting
tonight is intended TO be preliminary
to the adoption Of decided measures,
and a consultation will be had con-
corning the probable cost Of such a
structure as is needed here, and au es,
innate is to be made OF the amount OF
money it will be necessary to raise.
We hope that the meeting may be
well attended and that .uch counsels
will prevail as will secure the success
of the work. A new Opera House is
one o. the wants Of the city. There is
scarcely another town OF nall the popu'
lation of this in the United States that
is not better supplied with places Of
public amusement than Wheeling, and
our backwardness in this respect gives
the city an unfavorable reputation
abroad. Let the business men of the
place take hold of the matter at this
time ard we are satisfied that but slight
effort will he needed to make it com
pletely successful. The project is a
popular one, the people OF the city are
warmly in its favor, and now is the
time to strike.

The Labor Reform" Convention at
Columbus, Ohio, has made choice of
two first rate men as its candidates for
President and Vice President. There
can be no kind Of doubt that Judge
DAVIS, OF Illinois and Governor PAR
xER, ofNew Jersey, are infinitely supe'
rior TO GRANT and CoLFAx and would
fill the positions for which they have
been nominated with much more dig
nifty and honesty and advantage to the
country than the present incumbents.
But is there not just a little danger
that this nomination and probably
that to be be made by the indie.
pendent Republicans at Cincinnati, may
result in promoting the very object they
are intended to defeat, The Labor
reformers," the independent Republi.
cans" and the Democratic party OF the
country all want to defeat GRANT and
restore the Administration of the Ma
tional Government to honest hands.
But, by dividing the forces and voting
for three several tickets, as may
be the case, We insure the tri.
umph OF the men and the prin'
eiples we most bitterly condemn.
The Democratic party will not be
disposed to play second fiddle" to any
smaller organization and, such is the
perversity Of human nature, they will
not feel willing to adopt the ticket pre-
seuted by any otheripolitical body, no
matter how unobjectionable il may
otherwise be. The greater will not
willingly coalesce with the smaller
body and hence we fear that the nom
nations made by this or that faction
may ultimately result in a hope
less division Of the opposition
vote and the triumph of the party
at present in power. At all events
we advise Democrats to refuse to COM
nit themselves to the support of any
ticket not regularly presented by a
National Democratic Convention land
We believe that such discretion will
rule the selection of the regular Demo
cratic candidates as that all the ele
ments Of opposition to GRANT may be
gratiied and concentrated and thus
organized to secure a victory.

h.cV. Y. w. LOsNen.

The sad intelligence Of tie death of the
Rev. JARMAlN WESLEY LoGUEN, one ofthe
Bishops of the A. NJ. f. (Zion) Church, will
cause sorrow and mourning wherever the
story Of his life and labors is known. Born
4 slave in the State of Tennessee, about the
year 1914, he managed, just as he attained
the period of manhood, to escape from the
prison-house of bondage and after brief
soourn in Canada, settled in the State OF
New York. His eventful biography for the
first forty-fve years of his existence has been
for some time before the public, having been
published in 1856 under the title, " As a
Slave and as a Freeman" This narrative,
which is intensely interesting, sets out in
bold relief on the one hand the enOrmities of
the accursed system of slavery, now forever
past away, and on the other, the invincible
manliness that resulted in converting born
chatte into free man, well educated, and
possessed of a reasonable competency, as
we'll as of the respect of the entire community
of which he was a resident. The incidents
of his remarkable biography are briefly as
follows:
Bishop Loguen, the fugitive slave, was en-
abled, by filing position of porter in hotel
at Rochester, New York, to obtain means
sufficient to enable him to pursue a course
New national era. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1870-1874, 1872-10-03

foundations of his future fortunes. Thus
equipped, he entered upon the duties Of his
life, first as minister Of the Gospel in the
religious denomination Of which he had be-
come member, and afterwards as a lecturer
in the antl-slavery field. In both Of these
avocations he showed himself especially USE
iul, and continued to do SO until the year 1850,
when the passage Of the Fugitive Slave law
made manifest that moral courage which he
possessed in an eminent degree. At public
meeting in Syracuse, where he had been for
ten years pasta resident, he boldly declared,
MY master is Manasseth Logue, of Ten
nessee, and the letter of the law gives him a
title to my person. Let him come and take
it. I'll not run, nor will | give penny for
my freedom This same trait Of character
prompted him, in the following year, to take
a conspicuous part in the celebrated Jerry
rescue case, and thus TO subject himself to
prosecution under the law just alluded to.
In 1910, Mr.. Loguen was married. He
| selected, as his partner in life, Miss Caroline
Storum, of Busti, New York, lady whose
moral and intellectual endowments admirably
justified his choice. Their home was almost
| constantly the rcsting-place Coz persons
escaping from slavery and, for this reason,
Mr.. Loguen became generally known through
out the country as the Underground Railway
King. Mrs. Loguen died five years ago,
after their happy union had been blessed by
two sons and five daughters, four of whom
survived, the eldest being the wife of Lewis
Douglass, Esq, the assistant editor of this
paper.
| While still in the matured strength Of his
manhood, Bishop Logucn has been suddenly
| called away; and those who knew him init
mately and loved him will long bcmoan his
! loss. They will fondly cherish the memory
Of his manly qualities, of his Christian vir
tues, and of the untiring zeal and fidelity
with which he performed his duties as q
minister in the church, of which he was one
of the episcopal heads. But their sorrow al
this bereavement will not be tllat Of those
who mourn without hope; because theirs
will be the precious consolation, Blessed
are the dead who die in the Lord that they
may rest from their labcrs and their work:
do follow Them

rampant; is it in midnight murder and
scnurcing that brothcrly love and respect FOR
the laws manifest themselves? Listen to the
utterances of Democratic orators, such for
instance, as Mr.. Salisbury, an active Gree
ley man, who, when addressing a Greeley
meeting a few days ago in Wyoming, Della
ware, closed as follows:
ave stand as in 1860, band of white
men, on white mans platform, and appeal
ing only to white men. If the Republicans
crafty the desires Of the negroes, they will
be in our schools, our churches, our ccme-
teries, and the jury-box. But for the negroes
there would be no Republican party in Della
ware. l treat and speak to them kindly, but
I am a white man, and do not desire to have
myself reduced down to the level of the me-
gro"
Do you contend that these declarations
affirm the amendments and laws guarantee
ing equal rights to the negroes, or that they
show disposition to abide by them?
The climax of wi.lful perversion of the
truth, however, is reached in the resolution
denouncing Wendell Phillips, truer friend
than whom the negroes have never had.
Those highly intelligent and learned gen.
tlemen endeavor to make it appear as if
Wendell Phillips were encouraging the col
ored men to resist by force of arms the legal
authority of the Government in the event of
Mr.. Greeley's election yet even the dullest
reader will readily take Mr.. Phillips advice
for what it really is, namely: warning
and a very timely one--to prepare in that
event for defense against the Ku-Klux Khan,
that would rise more formidable and terrible
than ever.
This attempt, however, to mislead the col
Ored people, is too gross to be successful.
The negroes have always had sense enough
to distinguish their true friends from their
disguised enemies in spite of the blandish-
ments held out by the most skilled political
tricksters, and will do SO again by voting fol
the Republican candidates.

time and the rent OF the hall. If Sumner does
not "Stcl;' rs their nominee, they cannot
select a candidate who will run so well as
even he would, but whatever they do, who
ever they nominate. The Republicans of the
whole country eau rely en- one of those good,
old-fasfi5ncd nlaioritica Of the past, which
have always encouraged ihlt great party from
Maine Ia California and from the lakes to the

their record, aud they viii maintain the high
reputation this state has gained in The past,
which to-day makes h"r fame 80 gloriou, and
