made the "har fly" from Spstes and
Davis OF Harrison, and other parties
who seem to regard the B. & D. R. r
as their particular constituency.
think the bill as amended by Dr.
Thompson, and containing substsntisl-
ly the provisions l have mentioned
will pass both Houses.
The House of Delegates will lose nc
time from now until adjournment The
committees have prepared mass oi
legislation which is sufficient to occupy
the attention OF the House until thai
time, not to speak of the large pumbel
Of Senate bills that now await the &C.
ton OF the House.
[ desire, considering that yonr per-
mission is sgain granted, TO refer in
complimentary terms, to two OF the most
earnest and faithful workers in the
House OF Delegates. / mean VIM. j,
Woodell, OF Pocahontss, aud Colonel
FLOYD, OF Logan. Mr.. Woodell is one
OF the indefatigsble men who never
tire; and who seemd 10 think that they
canno. do 100 much for their people.
Heis o quiet, unobtrusive gentleman
very ;air orator, Democrat firm as
the eternal hills; lover OF tar play
and honest dealing. and a good man
generally. The people OF Pocahontas
did well to send him here, and they
cannot better subserve their own inter
ests at the next election than by re-
turning him to his post.
Colonel Floyd, OF Logan, is perhaps
the most popular man Ia the House.
A perfect specimen o! the old Virginia
gentleman, whose honor is dearer TO
him than his lite, be compels the re-
spect of friend and foe alike. The
Colonel's efforts in behalf OF an efficient
road system should be greatiully RE
membered by the people OF the back
counties, and | sincerely hope that he
may be returned to his present position
next year, in order to keep rolling the
ball that he has so gallantly started
during the past season.
Nv attention has been called 10 a
dirty attack in the Lntclhgencer upon
Mr.. Woflindiu, OF tue Weston Democrat,
written in Wheeling by the lighting
body.servant OF bis hypothetical excel
lency, but purporting 10 come from
Charleston. lam requested to say by
Mr.. Woffindin that the article carries
with il its own reply-ior that dlstln'
gulshed member OF the kitchen cabinet
having officiated at the sink go long,
would render contamination a necesss-
~ consequence, il the person referred
10 was bonored by reply TO the filth
he has thrown. II one shovels manire
he is bound to get upon his garments
the odor of his occupation and Wofiin'
din not being in that line OF busir ess,
prefers to let the huge monument oi
garbage rest in its own obscurity.
A word more: If j! is possible that
we have people in this State who will
accept as argument and facts, the lying
assertions in regard to the legislature
now being put forth by the Radical pa
pers, when their better judgment, I'll
they have anyl must convince them
that they are untrue, l am much mis-
taken as to the intelligence and virtue
OF our citizens. They may propagate
these stories in q dishonorable and un-
manly way for party purposes, but they
know that they are untrue; and histo-'
ry will only repeat itself when this Or
ganized system OF misrepr esentation
recoils Gas it surely willy upon the heads
Of its own authors. JEEMs.
