erty and apply the proceeds 10 the con-
struction Of Q new building, % already
proposed. Such o building will cost but
little more than the building now contem.
plated for the Second ward, and II we de.
duct from Its cost the amount realized
from the sale Of the Third ward building

one large school as II will two smaller
ones. .... ..,. I,r,,.k I..I. md II
The lots already selected, on the cor
ner Of old Union and 4th streets, would
be central for both wards, excepting only
that part Of the Third Ward around the
hill, which could be conveniently trans,
ferred to the Union township district.
1tamore eligible location can be found
however, let II be adopted. The question
OF the particular location Of the building
is Of much less Importance than the queS:
ton Of consolidation, as herein sugges ted.
1t certainly will secure an economy In the
construction Of the building, and In the
current expense Of our school system
while at the same time II makes provis-
ion for all probable wants in the future
within the district in question.

1889 and 1874.

II seems curious to go back one gen.
Grafton in our local history and see how
incredible Is the change that has come
over us in o political as well as business
sense. When we turn TO an old paper
and read the proceedings Of q meeting
that was held in Wheeling on The 12th
day Of January, 1889, we can hardly re.
alize that plenty Of people are still living
who remember that meeting perfectly
well. II was q meeting called to purge
the citizens Of Ohio county from any
suspicion Of supposed sympathy with
Abolltionism. II seems that one JouH
GILMoR, q Justice OF tho Peace Of Ohio
county, and certain other persons, had
signed petition TO the Congress Of the
United States praying that honorable
body to abolish slavery in the District Of
Columbia. Such petitions were very obi.
Gus 10 the South, and especially to Viz.
ginia, the great slsve.breedipg State Of
the South. The eyes Of Richmond were
upon US in those days, and the one
crowping ambition Of Wheeling was
TO stand well at Richmond. To find
favor with the oligarchy she was willing
to crush out the liberties Of JOHN GI1MoR
and other citizens, and, therefore, under
took to hold them up before the world as
objects Of her contempt and indignation,
But JOHN G1IMoR was "noble Roman
TO his honor DO 1t said, one ofthe good old
Covenanter stock, whose conscience was
his shield" and he did not propose to be
crushed out, and therefore he fatty re-
fused In obedience TO the summons served
on him by the meeting Of the 18th Of Jan
usry to either retract his signature to
petition for the abolition Of slavery in the
District Of Columbia or 10 resign his seal
on the bench Of Justices Of Ohio County
Instead oil doing so he wrote q manly and
respectful protest against the attempted
outrage upon his liberties, and then like
JOHN HAMPDEN Of Immortal memory
submitted his reputation to the jus
judgement OF posterity."
He did not appeal in vain to Time tc
vlndicate him, for we have heard that he
died only few years ago at his home
near Valley Grove, in this county, attel
his eyes had seen the success Of all, and
more than all, for which he was willing
to brave public reproach in the days tina
tried mems principles. 1t well to recul
to such an episode in our history nov
and then, in order to let the rising gener
alton see how slavery once enslaved thi
community, and also to teach a lesson o
moral courage for their encouragement
when principle is at stake. OF JON
G1IAtoR We will write, as was written o.

ssAuxusta Evans, That Was.r

"Curtis," of the Chicago Inter- Ocean,
writing from Mobile, says of a tavorite
Southern authoress:
Among the famous denizens Of the town
ia Augusta j. Evans. the author of "St.
Elmo" She is Mrs. Wilson now, and lives
in a beautiful little chateau in the suburbs.
Her husband is a banker of wealth and in
huence, and she a plain. nnassnming lady,
about thirty-ive years old, l should think.
From her appearance, one would not i'm
agine that she had wrestled with COnfucius,
the Sanscrit philosophers, and the ancient
Greeks. l meant to have asked her how
she comes to know so much as she does
about things of which every body else is ig-
norant; but | Couldn't was afraid it
would be i%mpudent. Imagine q tall, slen-
der lady, of dark complexion, black hair,
and eyes of an Indifferent color, features
plain, but full Of animation and intelligence,
and tanners that are at once unobtrusive
mi attractive, and you have this De Stael
of the South. She is seen but little in 80
ciety, and seldom entertalns any but init
mate friends; but the poor know her we'll,
and the hospitals and Institutions for the
homeless and friendless fud in her a Flor.
ence Nightingale. During the wal she
was very active in the Southern hospitals,
and, it is said, gave the larger portion Of
the profits of her novel "Macaria," which
was published in 1862, for the benefit of the
sick and wounded soldiers. The novel is q
story Of Southern life, and is very popular
down here, as l find all her works are, and
the lady herself, from her exclusiveness. is
looked upon as something better than the
common sort.
