OUR GRAFTON LETTER.
Teacher't Institute Slim Attendance o
Teachers-Man Killed-Good Crops.

Teacher't Institute Slim Attendance Of
Teachers-Man Kiled-Good Crops.
GRAFTON, w. Va July 9, 1874.
Editors of the Register. ... ...
The Teachers Institute, in charge Of
the accomplished Professors, Morrow and
Crago. was commenced in this place last
Monday. But very few, comparatively,
of the teachers of this county and the
adjacent counties, are in attendance,
much to the regret of all who had hoped
for much better success for the Institute.
But little of general Importance has as
vet transpired, although the gentlemen
in control are making every effort to
render the occasion of profit and interest
10 all concerned.
On Monday the Institute was formally
assembled and organized, but the pro-
pramme consisted entirely of miscellane-
Gus exercises. On Tuesday morning the
Institute settled down to business, and
business has been since and will without
doubt continue to be the motto. PrIma-
ry reading, primary arithmetic, penman-
shin. mental arithmetic and primary
grammar, are the subjects considered to
date, 18th, the exercises being literally
inters persed with individual modes OF
teaching and discussions Of the various
queries presented. The programme for
to-dav's exercises 'has not yet been
made public"
GRAFTON DULL.
Locally considered, Grafton is now
somewhat dull, although we look for
ward to the prospective good time when
the crops and other farm products are
disposed of; and we think money will
again float around promiscuous like, as
in other DAYS, and business will initiate.
ANDREW SHEA KILLED.
A man named Andrew Shea was ac--
cidcntally killed by the cars in the yard
at this place, to-day. He attempted to
Jump from the bumper of a car while the
train was in motion, and his pants
caught on rod which pro-
iccts above the bumper about
one inch, throwing him on
on his head and across the track, two
wheels passing over his breast. He was
almost instantly killed: Deceased was a
most excellent young man, and the
only support of an aged father and
mother. His shocking death is nniver-
sally regretted.
GOOD CROPS.
Wheat in this county has turned out
well. everybody being favored with II
good Weld, AS well as can now be pre-
dictcd from appearances. ;.

IN a moral point of view, the life
of the agriculturist is the most
pure and holy of any class of men; pure,
because it is the most healthful, and vice
can hardly find time to contaminate it;
and holy, because it brings the Deity per-
petually before his view, giving him
thereby the most exalted notions of SUI
preme power, and the most fascinating
and endearing view of moral benignity.

question Of restoration of the franking
privilege came up.
Mr.. G. +. Hoar asked Mr.. Garfield il
there had been any diminution of the
postofhcs deficit on account of the abo-
lition Of the franking privilege.
Mr.. Garfield replied that be didn't
know. but believed the deficit would have
been greater il the ranking privilege
had not been abolished.
Mr.. Hoar asked il he didn't know the
deficit had increased.
Mr.. Garfield replied that he did not.
but believed the repeal had increased the
revenue OF the postofice department.
de was, however, compelled to say the
repeal had not increased the revenue no
greatly as he believed at the time il
would, still he was in favor of giving il
a full trial. One years trial was not
enough, besides the past year had been a
year of famine and distress. and not a
form.
Mr.. Kelley hoped that the paragraph
would be struck out and the ranking
privilege restored. He expressed salts.
faction that he had voted against the re.
peal and always favored its restoration.
The repeal had been obtained by fraud,
In getting up Q memorial under the
orders OF the Postmaster General, and in
II was an official statement, that the re-.
peal would save five millions annually.
when it has not saved one hundred
thousand.
Mr.. Maynard condemned the repeal of
the Thanking privilege as having oper.
ated to cut of free communication be.
tween the people and their representa-.
tivss. The motion TO strike out the
paragraph was rejected by 81 to n; The
committee rose.

CHICAGO. Dec. 2l.-A severe sleet
storm East is interfering badly with the
working of the telegraph lines.
A Washington special says that the
caucus Of Southern Republicans on
Saturday night seems to have been in the
nature OF an indignation meeting. The
principal ground Of complaints seems to
be the disposition Of the party at the
North as the party to hold the carpet
baggers to account for the disordered
state of things in the South and give
them the cold shoulder in consequence
They protested against this; alleging
that the reconstruction policy was de.
vised by the Republican party. and that
the Republicans Of the South we're mere
ly instruments to carry it out, and il il
hasfbronght forth bitter fruit, the party
is to blame, they are not. They were
not so much the instruments in carrying
out that policy as were the INSCRIPTIONS
men who took advantage Of its weak
points to serve their own ends. The
hnal conclusion was, that while they
asked but little consideration and re-.
ceived less at the hands OF the Republi.
can party, still they were determined to
cling to and loyalty serve the organiza-
ton. They adopted an address recon-.
mending that the present Congress make
appropriations for the army and the
Department Of Justice for the next two
years, so that failure in the perform
ance of this duty by the Democratic
House would not prevent the preserva-
ton OF order and the enforcement Of the
laws. Senators Clayton, OF Arkansas,
and Pease, of Mississippi, appeared as
delegates from the Southern Senatorial
Republican Caucus and fully eoncurred
in all their proceedings. A statistical

YESTERDAY afternoon an ARRAY occurred
in Secret Canyon between l.. r. Kelly,
foreman at the Geddes Il Bertrand mine,
and a miner named John Lawson, en-
ployed at the same place. A quarrel
arose between the two men in relation to
the possession of cap, the property Of
n man named Harrington. The men
soon came to blows, and Kelly getting
the best Of the fight, Lawson suddenly
seized an ak and struck at his opponent,
inflicting frightful wound on his head
Immediately above the left ear, and au-
other on the neck below the ear. The
ARRAY occurred on the dump ut the shaft
OF the Stockton location. Kelly's recov.
cry is very doubtful. Lawson is q Ger.
man, has been employed as miner by
different people, and at times has shown
signs Of mental arrangement, so much
90 as to occasion remarks from those
who have witnessed his actions while
thus suffering. The victim Of his savage
assault is q native of Pennsylvania and
