~ FATAL AccIDENT.-We regret
to learn that Mr.. John w. Embrey, a
native of Culpsper County, Va, and a
brakeman on the freight cars Of the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, fell from
the cars, in Kingwood Tunnel, on Mon
day morning last, and was instantly
killed. Mr.. Embrey resided in this
town, several years, previous to engag-
ing upon the Railroad, and was known
as "Culpeper," and was an industrious
honest, and quiet young man, and his
untilnely death is much regretted, His
aged was about 25 years.

BEAUTIFUL HANDWRITING.

There are but few of our readers who
would not like to acquire rapid and
beautiful handwriting, for there is no
other one accomplishment so highly
priced as this. The business colleges OF
the country have afforded the best in
struction in this branch, and have sue
ceeded.in producing the most accom-
plished penmen. The best penman i'll
America to day is Prof Gaskell, Pres't
of the Byrant & Stratton College Of
Manchester, n. II. There are few low
ers OF the beautiful art Of penmanship
who have not heard Of this beautiful
penman. and many have seen specimens
of his skill. His large specimens have
attracted great attention in New York
City and throughout the country where
they have been placed on exhibition.
lie is now engaged day and night
sending out Copies for selfinstruction,
which he writes himself expressly for
applicants, So that any one can learn to
write at the home freside. These con-
tain full printed instructions, and
are put up in large heavy envelopes, and
sent 10y mail prepaid for 81 90 per pack
age. They are all numbered and so
fully explained that no one can fail to
learn rapidly from them. They have
been ordered by thousands-not by poor
writers alone but by the leading teach
ers of penmanship throughout the Uni
ted States and Canada. Our readers
would do well to write for package,
as nothing SO complete, beautiful and
useful for selt.instruction will ever again
! he offered them.

ny SHEPHERD CoLLEGE.-Ihe hrs'
;n.tallment of books, from the "Smith'
sopian Institution" for shepherd Col
,.oe" has been received. 1t comprises
the miscellaneous Collections, and
annual Reports" Of the Institution
from 1862 to 1871. They have been
obtained through the influence OF
Hon. Alexander K. Boteler, who
has been promised, also, for our
College, (besides other scientific pub
LEGATIONS from the Smithsonian a
lot of minerals classified and labeled,) a
lot of shells from the Pacific (per-
tectly arranged,) and specimens OF the
various stones used for buildingpurposes
throughout the United States.
1t will be seen, therefore, that be-
ginning ha, been made for the torma-
ton of a College library and also for an
interesting series OF cabinets to taclll-
tate the studies of minerology, conchol-
ogy, &c.
And we here take occasion to say to
our readers, far and near, rich aDdpoor'
old and young, that as each and all OF
YOU can do something towards lncreas-
ing the contemplated collections OF
books, universal, so for our College We
earnestly invoke your aid in its behalf
Send Us every booK you can spare

will be thankfully received and usetully
applied, and we also, respectfully sug-
y,.st To our farmers, who sometimes, In

IA stone hatchets, pestles, arrow-heads,

al orr the world and are, at this time,
eagerly sought for by the Swans OF

POPULATION OF JEFFERSON.
The census reports give the following tables
of population to jefferson county, from 1910
to 1870 inclusive:

This table shows the srsatest population of
Jefferson county to have been during the de-
oade ending the year 1850. The cause of the
decrease from that to the decade of 1860 we
are not prepared to explain hut the reasons
of the decline of the last decade are readily
apparent, viz: The discontinuance of the
Armory ut Harper's Ferry, and consequent
emigration Of the greater number of those
directly and indirectly relying upon it's dis
bursements for support, aud the exodus of a
large number of former slaves, who have
focked into the large cities since their oman
cipasion. These two causes are sufficient TO
account for the decrease of 1916 in popula-
ton in Jefferson county during the ten gears
ending 1870, leaving the losses sustained in
deaths during the war to balance the increase
by births.

STATISTICS OF CRIME.

The ninth census gives some criminal sta
tistics which are Of considerable Interest,"
There are some remarkable facts showing
from what class of our communities criminals
are chiefly derived. Thus it appears that
there is at least one criminal in every ] ,172
of our whole population, one in every / ,744
of our native white population, one in every
63I of our foreign born population, and one
In every COS of our negro population The
New York World. to which we are indebted
for the collection of these statistics, remarks
that this result il rather damaging to the
theories of that class of humanitarians who
have been holding MP the innocent, inoffen>
siVe negro for an example aud guide-post to
the ferocious and uncomfortable foreigner.-
1t shows that the penitentiaries recruit among
our colored brethren in preference to all other
classes in the community.
A comparison between tho returns for
Massachusetts, and the returns for Georgia
gives another set of results which must be
Immensely shocking to those who believe in
the ku Klux, in the lawlessness of the South.
and VINO arc accustomed to uphold Massa-
ch"setts for pattern of all the virtues The
relative number of population and of crmi-
mails in the respective States is as follows:
MASSACHUSETTS.
T5ta' population 457 1851 Total criminals. 3 526
Native white. ,O90 0~5 Native whi.c... ,l5s

GEORGIA.
Total P, y, is4 10! !n9 T",sl

This table shows that, while in Massachu-
sets one person in every SIT is a criminal in
Georgia there is only criminal in every
1906 OF the native whites in Massachu>
sets one person i'll every 946 is criminal !;
while of the native whites of Georgia only
one in every 1882 is convict. The Massa.
chusetts negro docs not seem to have done by
tho estimabIs example he has continually
before his eyes, and the legal and social
equality thrust upon him. To police point
or view he is considerably behind his kins>
man asst out Of bondage in the Georgia
Egypt; for while there is one criminal to
every 100 negroes in Massachusetts in Geor>
sia there is only one to every 9l3-showing
that the Genrgia negro il very little more of
a criminal than the native white man of Mas
EachuSot's. The foreigner in Massachusetts,
is a criminal in the proportion of one to 2S6
Che is laborer there in tho cotton mills, it
must be remembered. and has to work ~
hours in day, in order that his bosses may
reap their l20 per cent, dividends y while in
Georgia, respectable aud respected, lie turns
out Only one criminal in 100.
The VorId recommends these statistics to
those humaD'tariaus who, 10 their eoserness
to snatch the mote out of their Southern
brothers eye, quite overlook the beam in
their own
