The citizens of Wheeling, and, in
deed, of West Virginia, feel some de-
gree OF local pride in the fact that, out
OF the whole list OF competitors,
Wheeling architect has been awarded
the distinction OF framing one OF the
selected ten best plans for the CentenH
NAL Exposition Building at Phlladel-
pnia. In addition to this, we are glad
TO know that, of the ten, MI, FAIRFAxs
plan has received the highest COM
meudation from the press, and that
there is fair probability that his will
be finally selected as the best OF all.
The final award will be made in a short
time, all of the plans being submitted,
with such corrections as the architects
chose to make, on or before the 3Oth
of September, and we confess to come
degree of local pride, in the hope that
Mr.. FAiRFAxs plan may be eventually
awarded the honor Of adoption.

Emcuit WAS COminE-PredicfiIn of
tho Panic

iuc
A week ago last Wednesday, on
September II, two days before the fall
ure OF Jay Cooke, and the beginning OF
the panic. Mr.. Henry Clews wrote q
letter 10 the Secretary of the Treasury,
stating 10 the strongest terms that q
financial panic was imminent unless
the Treasury Department Immediately
came to the relief Of the community,
either by putting in circulation part
OF its balance OF SIS, 100000 in curren :
cy, or by taking some other prompt ac-
ton. The letter, which was not an
swered, says:
"a panic will set in from all appear
ances within a few days if the Treasury
does not come to the rescue. 1t is nec-
essary to suggest to you, under euch
circumstances, what ia best 10 be done,
as YOU so well know what plans 1t
would be best to adopt. The banks at
the moment are largely under their re-
serve; tie crops are commencing to
move, and they are very large. 1t
would therefore be very sad if a panic
should sweep over the country proGuc-
ing disaster while the government has
it in its power to prevent it. You will
find this statement corroborated by re-
ferring to any of our leading merchants
or bankers, as the feeling among them
is most gloomy.
That shows he knew al about it,
and the subsequent action OF his own
house proved it.

Tho Asylum.
From the Weston Democrat.

From the We5tCn OeuOCIas
The annual meeting OF the Board OF
Directors Of this institution will be held
on Wednesday, the LIST day of October.
In this connection, it may be well to
state that, from estimates correctly
made, it has been ascertained, beyond
question, that the section of the build.
ing now in course of construction, will
be erected for at least sos, 600 less than
any other like section of the entire
building, while the work will be done
equally as well as on any OF the pre-
ceding ones. This is, indeed, very
gratifying exhibit--as we'll to the gen.
tleman under whose control the work
has been done, as 10 the taxpayers OF
the State.
The handsome brick building in the
rear of the Asylum, for the building OF
which Mr.. P. M. Hale is the csutrac-
tor, will soon be ready for occupation /;
and before winter we are assured that
the ialls of the State will be cleared o!
every insane person now confined there
in. Like the larger building, the new
structure is a magnificent edifce-cred-
liable alike to the contractor and to the
State.
For the Information OF those who
have not understood the purpose of the
new building, it may be well to ex-
plain little at this point. A larger
engine house was q necessity; and 1t
was agreed that that building should
be erected now, and when completed it
should be fixed up for the purpose and
occupied by the insane until the main
building was ready for their reception
There were two good and sufficient
reasons for this course: First, because
az many hands as could be worked
there were employed on tho main
building, and still it was physical
impossibility 10 complete 10 before next
May or June; and, Second, because
the Board wisely determined 10 save
the State all the money they could.
For illustration: 1t is estimated that
there is now one hundred insane per
sons confined in the jails Of the State,
| at cost per capita per week Of
$3.50. The cost per capita per week
in the Asylum is 81 5O-making a
| difference OF S. per week in each pa
tient. Now, the poorest mathemati-
cisn in the world will see at a glance
that by having this one hundred pa.
tients in the Asylum, the Stste would
save $500 per month; and this saving
for five months, will build the engine
house. And it should not be forgotten
that in this building these unfortu.
mates can receive the best of care and
medical attention, while in the county
| jails the very nature Of things force
them from bad to worse.
Considering the impediments thrown
in the way OF the present Board, and
the uncertainty which prevailed dur
ing the early part OF the season, they
have accomplished wonders; and we
doubt not their efficient services to tie
State will be recognized in suitable
manner by the Governor, the Leg;sla'
ture and the people.

this card the Cincinnati Commercial
says:
"In ignorance, however Of what the

till the banks can let currency flow
freely through the arteries OF commerce
and adjust the exchanges OF the coun-
try, it becomes the positive duty OF
bankers to provide against the effect OF

substitute of some effective policy that
will keep business alive on the
present Clearinghouse certificate plan
of business adopted by the different
trade centers. They will have to pro"
vide a system by which the semi-sus-
pended workings OF the banks in locali-
ties can be extended to the whole
country. In other words, the policy OF
standing by one another for the safety
OF business of localities will have to be
extended so as that all the banks
those accepted as sound-shall
stand by one another for the protec-
ton of the business OF the country
at large. The protective system must
be general, else, where as in this coun-
try especially, business interests are SO
mutually dependent, there will arise

by couriers arriving Monday night from
the front, of the last engagement with
the Modocs Capt. Hasbrouck was attacked
very suddenly by thirty-three Modes,
headed by Capt. Jack, who wore the uni
form of Gen. Candy. Four soldiers and
one Warm Spring Indian were wounded.
After the first attack of the Modocs, Capt.
Hasbrouck rallied his men and charged upon
them The Modocs retreated, and were
driven into the woods. Several yolleys were
fired upon them, but it is not known
whether any were killed. The troops cap
tured twenty-five horses belonging to the
Modocs, and six boxes of carbine cartridges
which had been captured by the Indians a
short time ago while being sent to the
front.
