"A on the south side of Kanawha river,
about halt annie from its mouth. There
is a good house on the farm, near the
landing, which is one of the best har-
b0rs or coal boat landings on the Kama
wha. The farm is well watered and well
timhered, but is especially valuable for
its rich coal veins which have been very
little worked, and for a vein of p%otter's
clay found there. There is, too, u small
orchard near the river IN this farm.
Also; Il farm of I43 acres on the Ohio
river, II miles from GallipOlis. IL has 4
good landing, is rich in coal and iron,
and offers a good situation for a wood or

The reason for wishing to sell these
farms is that the brother OF age TO profit
ably look after them, is engaged away
from home, and the sisters do not wish

For the Gallipolis Journal.
To the Patrons of the Union
School:

At the meeting of the School Board
last Saturday, it was decided to divide
Grade No. | into two sections. Section
First will attend school in the forenoon
and Section Second in the afternoon.
The enrolment in No. I was about 80,
and therefore this step was needful as a
relief to the teacher, but we believe
the good of the children will be pro-
noted by the measure. Our most en-
lightened authorities agree that small
children should not be confined in school
more than three hours Il day. and that
period should be interrupted by frequent
intervals for exercise.
We were glad to see entire unanimity
in the Board in adopting this PROPOSE
ton. The plan has been pursued in
some of the towns of this State for sew
eral years, and has been attended with
the best results. j. S. WILSON.
