THE GRANDEST OF MODERN
SHOWS

THE GREAT New York AND NaH Or,
LEANS GEOLOGICAL AND EQUEsTRIAN
EXPOSITION.
Much has been said in favor of this
show by the entire press of Chicago and
other cities where it has exhibited and we
expected to witness a remarkably fine ex-
hibition. In this we were in no way dis
appointed, as the show fully came up to
our most sanguine expectations, and we
have no hesitancyin prOnouncing it one of
the finest shows in every respect that has
ever visited our city. The geological col
lection is exceptionally large and embraces
rare animals from every cline, and all in
the finest possible condition. The black
manned African lion, doubled bumped
Bactrian camel, and the Royal Bengal til
ger, are without doubt the largest speci-
mems ever brought to this country. The
equestrian company cannot be excelled
being composed of the finest artists in the
profession.
The equestrians, the acrobats, the tum-
blers, the clown, trained horses, bareback
specialties, all are far ahead of the usua1
professionals, and startle the beholders in
to puzzling study. Huge impossibilities
are made possible, and the most RECKLESS 6
daring reduced to an actual science.
1t has most inmtable clowns, who new.
Ell descend to vulgarity. The Mast,p d.,
Cirque is model ring master. All in all
this New York and New Orleans Exposi.
lion show is first class in every sense of
The term and we cheerfully commend If &c
well as the gentlemanly manager and aS
'istants' to the people throughout tn
northwest.

Poetry.
a COMET POEM,

The mighty comet thro' the heavens doth sail,
Shaking aloft its yellow, golden tall
All hail
Thou long drawnout, eccentric star
Thou omen of disease and war.
And sich,
All which
OF all the ills thou art supposed to bring
Wilt switch
Upon us, thou stupendous thing?
Whence didst thou come, and whittier wilt thou go
From what We call above, to what we term below:
Ist so,
Or contrawse, or how? And dost
Thou purpose to collide with earth, and burst,
And smash
And hash
Things centrally? Or wilt thou undertake
An ash
Pile Of this mundane sphere to makee
Oh mighty, elongated mass
AS fixing thou dost fast and fast
Ter pass
Through chaos, millions upon millions gaze
In fear and trembling on thy caudal blaze.
For Oh
They know
'Twoud hurt their feelings to be crushed burned
And go,
As many would, to dwell among the d-urned.

Railroad Matters.

MKMpHIs, July 2.-An Avalanche
Water Valley, Mississippi, special says :
At meeting of the stockholders OF the
Mississippi Central railroad held here
yesterday, the action OF the directors
endorsing the legislative act on con-
solldating the Mississippi Central, New
Orleans and jackson railroads, was
ratified almost unanimously, the con-
eolidsted roads to be known as the
New Orleans, ST.. Louis and Chicago
railroad. The issue Of the consolidated
stock is TO be one for three of the Cen.
tral, aud two for three Of New Orleans
and Jackson.
Within the past two days abundant
rains have fallen in north Mississippi,
except in the vicinity OF Water Valley
and Oxford, where good rain has not
fallen in the past two months.
Bank suspensiOn.
The suspension OF the Freedmen's g
Savings Bank here, causes some ex.
citement among the colored people,
though its business has been small
since the panic last fall.
The Episcopal Church Home, some
five miles from this city, burned last
night. Most OF the furniture was saved.
Loss So 600.

West MISUNDERSTANDING.
Editors of the Register:

At the convivium held in the arnory
building of the University on CON-
menceuent day, Mr. o. S. Long, Of the
Wheeling REGISTER, responded TO the
toast given to THE Press" Among
other things, he assured the Board of
Regents and the Faculty and friends OF
the University that they had the cordial
sympathy and support ofthe newspapers
aud their most earnest good will
To make good this assurance it will be
nee essary tor the newspapers OF the
State to cooperate with one another
sDd to keep in view one object, the
building up OF the University. To further
this end, it may not be amiss to call
attention to the name OF this school, that
it may be known. When each o.
the numerous papers in the State is
speaking Of the same school
it would perhaps be as well
Tor each to call it by the same name.
1t is not necessary to read any OF the
papers to learn that this has hitherto
not always teen done. 1t may be
known by observing the address On the
wrapper when the papers are received
at the reading room. 1t remains an
unsolved mystery how they ever reach
the same rostoffice. Would any one
suppose the same place was meant by
Nv est Va. College" "Unvereity ol W.
Va ,""Morgantown University" State
University" "Morgantown College p
Yet these appellations may al! be seen
on the wrappers Of the papers coming
10 the University reading room. Such
varied names are also given in the body
OF the papers to one and the same
school. How mucl better would it be 10
say West Va. University" when West
Va University is meant! To call this
school, endowed by the National Con-
gress, tostersd and supported by the
State Legislature, the University OF
West Virginia, the Morgautown Col
lpge, or by any otter name than West
Virginia University, suggests, on the
part OF those VINO DO go, eltner
ca pable Ind ffrrelce or woetul ignor-
auce The endowment of the University,
increased by the Legislature, amonnts
to nearly .:ll0,OO0. At it's origin
there were contributed, in grounds,
bulldogs and money, $4,000 The
new buildings erected and completed,
cost about $4,000. The new hall now
building will cost, it is sad, more than
$4,000, Such a public inltitution
already Involving the expenditure OF
$500, 900, an institution now rivaling and
destined to eclipse any other in the
State, merits the cordial sympathy
and support of the newspapers and their
most earnest good will AS an auxrli-
ary to this support and good will We
trust this Institution may hereafter
always be called by it's proper name
and designation OF West Virginia Uni
rtrSity. ALUANUs.
