The bill was passed by the House few
days ago and is now before the Senate.
But II is thought by those who, ought to
know that 1t will not pass that body. II
il should pass the Senate, 1t will be q hard
shock on this class OF our State schools,

Schools. II Is an axiom, however, that
the school Of experience Is a dear way TO

MORE CAPITAL. REMOVAL / G ~
On Yesterday when the House Of Dele.
gates took up the Senate resolution 70
extend the time Of adjournment tothe
ed instant, Mr.. Butcher objected Tor the
reason that "there Is something behind
IT," This something behind IT, was Of
once construed to mean the removal OF the
Capital. The blood oil both sides became
Gtin the twinkling OF an eye, and words
plain words flew across the hall thick
aud fast. The Sargeant-at-Arms was call
Cd inside Of the baro!to maintain order
and as usual your correspondent procured
leave OF absence for aiew minutes. When
''we' returned, all were quiet, and the res
Olution had been adopted fixing the 2ee
Ithe day to adjourn, and the Capital wa
not removed, nor any part Of u 9. ID I'd
1t iS generally understood that tht
House Is done with the question OF re-
moyal, as It Is admitted that the bill \
adopted last winter = good yet, as i say

moved to the city Of Wheeling on Ii.
10Th day OF December, 1873, or as SooH
hereafter as JraetiedbIs. OF course It wa
not practicable TO make the .aoVs until tht
bill passed by the House Is concurred u
blythe Senate, consequently We conclude
that II the Senate comes 10 time, which, .bl
the way, is doubtful, 1t will be practica-
BE 10 remove the Capital, State officers
Archives, &c. There Is immense excite
ment among the citizens about IT. The,
think that they are entitled to the Capt.

ing TO tight It ont on that line." 3
