This meeting is not in the exclusive
interest of the College, but of education
generally in this community. All,
therefore, who have children in any OF
the schools, together with the teachers,
commissioners and trustees OF all our
common schools, are requested to be
present, as the meeting will be held
viMou regard TO ,rsather.
They owe it to the teachers, commits
sioners and trustees of the schools, as
also to themselves and their children to
be present, without fail.
The meeting will be addressed by our
representatives in the Legislature, and
some of our own citizens. The County
Superintendent has also been invited to
address the patrons Of the school.
1t is the conviction of the trustees of
the College that if it fails to be put up
on permanent foundation it will be
solely for want of sufficient interest
among our own people:

Sag SHEPHERD CoLLEGE.-The per

BJ- SHEPHERD CoLLEGE.-The per-
manent establishment of such q school
as Shepherd College at Shepherdstown,
is matter in which there is not cltl-
zen of the town who should not feel
personal interest. There is not Que OF
any class among our citizens who Will
not be directly benefited by its contln-
uance. Persons who have no sons or
daughters to be educated ought not to
feel as if it were matter in which they
had no interest on that account. The
idea that successful school is benefit
to only the patrons of the school Is a
great mistake and so it can be proved
by a glance at Staunton, and the effect
which good schools have had upon her
as town. In eight years she has dou-
bled her population. The main cause
of this being that she has no less than
five schools, some of which have gained
a national reputation. About six hum
dred young ladies coming from dis
lance are educated in three OF these
schools and each of these six hundred
brings into Stanton at the lowest est
mate $500 per year, SO that there is
nearly, if not quite, half a million dol
lars distributed each year among the cit
liens of Staunton.
Every inhabitant of the town is ben
Gifted by this expenditure. And not
only so, there is not farmer within
miles of the place, or land owner, or
the owner of any real estate whatever,
who does not directly feel the Influence
of these schools. There is not person
wishing to sell pound Of butter or
head of cabbage who docs not gain by
them. The property owner finds those
seeking investment more willing to give
him a good price for land or house be-
cause of these educational opportunities,
when otherwise he would find selling
nearly impossible, while the producer
finds a good market for every thing.
When we look into the reasons why
Staunton should so outstrlp othcrtowns
we find that her people act in concert
with regard to every thing. But it may
be said we can not reach this state OF
things here. This must be admitted If
the people Of Shepherdstown and the
surrounding country are not interested
in the school already started. And that
too with as satisfactory prospect as
we could desire.
Let all, then, prove their interest in
this school, as the beginning of such a
state of things as exists in Staunton, by
attending the meeting called by the
trustees on the 18th, 30 that they may
learn what is expected of them, if they
desire the satisfactory end already reach
ed by Staunton and other places that
have such schools, which are to be val
ued more than Railroads.

Paw YOUR DEBTS.

There is class of chronic grumblers
that would complain if they were about
40 die. They commence to grumble at
the time they go into the milk business,
and they keep it up all through life, no
matter what business they engage in.
if they are farmers they grumble be-
cause the weather is too hot or toocold,
too wet or too dry, and their crops are
always failures despite the fact that their
corr cribs are erammed full, their barns
full Of wheat and their rattle always fat
enough to kill
If they are merchants, they are contin-
aally grumbling on account OF the dull
ness of trade and the scarcity of money
and despite the fact that they are con-
stantly disposing of their goods and
amassing wealth, still they are always
croaking 1t is so with some people in
all the walks of life. and they constitute
a large and miserable class Of society.
AT these times this class of people are
peculiarly happy in seeing other people
miserable, and there is no earthly need
for it. The country is all right. There
is money enough in it and there is no
need for all this cry of hard times.
There has not been dollar of money
wasted. There is just as much in the
country as ever and the trouble is, that
the people have become frightened.
scared to death and all for nothing.
There are to day, thousands and
thousands of dollars due from. men to
men in this county. 1t is due from
men who have the money too. locked
up at home or where it can be had, but
the owners are frightened, and they
won't pay their debts, won't touch the
money for fear they may need it, and so
it is rs good as lost and the whole coun-
try is made to suffer for the bull-head-
edness for that's the worO of a few
scared idiots.
Now if we have reader of this sort
we want him TO understand it is his
duty to pay his debts, He may owe
but little, but he owes one man and
that man owes another, and if he pays
the first we will guarantee that his
money won't lie lille, but will pay thou
sands of dollars of debts, case a good
many honest MEN who are cramped be-
cause they cannot get what is honestly
their due, aud make the whole country
easier.
You, Mr.. Farmer, owe your dry goods
dealer lie wants his money. You
have put yonr grain away and won't
sell it because you cant get your price
and so the dry-goods man has to wait
Your convenience and you get mad il he
tells YOU he has bills opay. Now, you
are not doing right. Either sell the
grain for what it will bring and pay
Your honest debts and get lots more
goods and go and borrow money, but
be sure YOU pay your debts, aud then
see how easy the times will be.
Follow the rule, FAY YOUR DEBTS and
there will be no more bard times.
