BILL

The failure OF the appropriation
hi which WAS recently before the leg-
;,s.ure will not occasion much regret
Prior to the adjournment in April last
50 appropriation WAS made Of all the
.ands likely to come into the public
gsaslry prior to the meeting OF the
sg:lsture in January 1875. Two
VESTS expenses Of the State government
we're provided for, and the bill expressly
p:oyides for the expenses Of the fiscal
yesr ending September 5Otb, 1878 and
for that ending September S0th, 1874.
The various charitable and penal in
sliiu.ions; the Asylum for the Insane;
the Asylum for the Deaf, Dumb and
Blind and the support OF convic!s in
the Penitentiary were all amply pro-
yided for; as was also fair amount
Of funds for building purposes at the
University, the Insane Asylum and oth-
= institutions under State control, ex-
:egt only the Normal Schosls, no sp-
g:.stion being made for these except
turing the year 1873. The YER
i.c; Of the Legislature in de-
testing the supplementary appropriation
bill is therefore due to the Normal
Schools alone, because all OF the other
public institutions are in good shape
sud properly provided for, except only
th. schools referred 10.
The so-called Normal schools Of this
State have failed to satisfy the popular
demand. ConcediDg, as all friends of
the free schools do, TIE importance of
training teachers ho1o 10 teach, we cam
not but admit that the money expend-
.l by the State for the instruction OF
teachers has been for the most
part misapplied. Local high schools
have been maintained in various
localities St State expense, and
the actual instruction in the art Of
teaching which has been impaired to
pupils and has had effect upon public
schools in West Virginia, is net COM
uensurate with the sums paid for the
service by the public treasury. We
have paid our money but the goods are
not forthcoming, and no reasonable
man can expect further payments TO
,his end without better results.
Tn. failure Of the appropriation bill
will not necessarily infict hardship
upon any OF the more important insti'
,a;;ons OF the State. The Judicial De-
yariment has sll that it reeds for 1874;
i1e Executive Department is amply
provided for; the University has nearly
twenty thousand dollars the Peniten-
is:y nearly sevesty-fve thou
:scd the Hospital for the
Iasane nearly Oue Hundred Thousand
Dollars, and. the Asylum for
the Deaf. Dumb and BIrd, more than
Thirty Thousand Dollars. All other
general and oriira1y expenses Of the
State are fully provided for and, with
toe exception Of the Normal Schools
alone, no possible Inconvenience can
'esu.t to any public interest from the
refusal Of the legislature to pass tn.
appropriation bill recently presented.

~. N" VISITS Us.-We omitted
to say in our last paper that the
great philosopher and orator, 81.
N" illuminated our sanctum on
Friday, the 18th inst, BY his per-
sonal presence. The Athens Messen-
ger thus speaks of the immortal
philosopher:
"It was gratifying to at once per-
ceive that this Interchangeable philos-
opher-the same yesterday, to-day,
and will be forever-continues san
guine of the ultimate practical vim
dication ofhis philosophical theory.
j. NJ alone Of all others reasons
not from a standpoint of prejudice.
To him alone it is given to unfold
the truth in all her majestic and
pristine beauty. With him there
is no variableness or shadow of
turning. With him of all mundane
existing intelligences, the primor-
dial essence of everlasting and
and perennial truth-but we fore
bear. 1t is gratifying to be able
TO announce that this unterrified
champion will, at Atheneum Hall,
on December 18th proximo, lift the
veil of error and assume the pres.
sure incident to a fearless advocacy
of the sublima theory of which he
is the author, and the only expo
nent capable of evolving its Cine
rian mysteries. Those afraid of
the truth will Of course stay away
while those seeking light will be
present to hear him. y. NJ re-
quests us to make known his high
appreciation of rhe people of Ath-
ems, and to say that he desires a
large audience on the 18th of next
month, so that he can effectively
vindicate principles for which he
alone is responsible.

j. W. BOWEN:
DEAR SIR.-After seeing you on
Thursday last | went up above Cor
NELIUs KARNEs', where Mr.. KIRK
PATRICK and his forces were at work,
and, Notwithstanding the same, |
found the men working cheerfully
and proftably, and building for you
the cheapest railroad ever built in
the State by great odds. Unless
the weather proves too unfavorable,
they will be ready to move their
teams down between Macarthur and
the M. & G. Road last of. this or
forepart Of next week, and if your
subscribers promptly supply the
means to pay them, you will soon
have the gap graded between your
town and the M. 81 G. Road. Every
thing looks promising for the speedy
completion of the road, if all do their
duty. We expect to have 70 to 100
additional men at work within ten
days, south Of the M. & G. Road,
and intend pushing the work along
with all the energy the circumstan-
ces will justify. I reached home
last night and found letters here
from Cincinnati that speak very en-
couragingly Of road from that city
to Macarthur. l wish them great
success in the undertaking, and the
same to another road seeking q
connection with ours. fthe people
along the line of our road will act
unitedly, and all contribute what
they can spare, we will soon have
the best paying railroad, for it's
length, in the State. The recent
liberal action of the Vinton Coal
and Iron Company, and its lessees
will go far towards insuring the
completion Of our road, will try
and be with you before this week is
out. Respectfully Yours,
w. II. LANGLEY.

VIcK's FLORAL GUIDE FOR 1874.
The January number of this
beautiful quarterly publication is
even still more elegant than its pre-
decessors, which is saying a good
deal. The number before us con-
tains 1876 pages of lettcr-press, with
illustrations on nearly every page,
and is q far more accurate and re-
liable guide to all lovers and cult
vators of flowers than many a duo
decimo volumn Of far more greater
pretentions. Besides containing
full and explicit instructions on the
growth and culture Of flowers, ii
contains complete list of all the
novelties of the floral world. 1t is,
in fact, Floral Magazine which is
indispensable to all lovers and cul
tivators. Published by JAMES VrcK
Rochester, New York.
