A COURSE OF LECTURES.

We adyerted in our last issue to the agita
ton of this subject, by some of our citizens
who were abundantly able to secure literary
entertainment of the highest order, from dis
tinguished lecturers, provided their efforts
were properly seconded by the community at
large. We have no miscellaneous libraries,
OF any consequence, 10 the county. and not a
single bookstore within its limits. We have
been developing, recently. very considerable
musical aud histrionic talent but in the higher
department. of letters, we seem to have sunk
into Bocotian indifference. Such literary
apathy did not formerly belong to Jefferson
county and we esteem it of the highest i'm
portance that the incrustation of ignorance
and materielism which is forming upon the
young men of our community should be
broken and destroyed. Our ladies', also, re-
quire some rational and instructive entertan-
msnt, and we hope they will manifest an active
interest in the scheme now being perfected
for course of lectures this winter. Let the
subject be discussed in private circles until a
proper appreciation of its importance is awak
ened. We have in our Own county several
gentlemen who have devoted their time aud
attention to Special Subjecrs-such as Tenn
perance, Finance, or the Centennial Their
several publications and speeches upon these
subjects have gained for them national repu
tatiOns. They are like prophets-not withour
honor, save in their own county. We assert
that the views of these gentlemen upon their
respective specialties, condensed int" the com
pass of lectures, would command attention any
where in the civilized world
In addition to these, as before suggested
We understand distinguished lecturers from
abroad can be prevailed upon to visit us. It
our citizens will take an interest in the matter
the contemplated scheme will be success !;
otherwise failure. As basis, and in con-
nectiou with the proposed lectures, Lyceum
should be organized. For this purpose. we
would suggest meeting of those who feel in
terested in the enterprise on tomorrow
"wednesday evening, in the Office of Hiram
O'BannOD, Esq, if it can be procured. as we
presume it cap.

HARRISBURG, Nov. IA, 1871.
Editors Of the Register AS you no doubt
feel an interest in whatever may tend to de-
ve!oP, aud bring into public notice the re-
sources Of this State, it may be gratifying to
you to learn that Mr.. Faulkner, the Repre-
sentative elect from the Second Congressional
District, is engaged in organizing an expe>
dtlon for the scientific exploration of West
Virginia. The purpose of this expedition is
to visit every prominent section of the State,
to ascertain, as far as practicable, its mineral
deposits, and the means for their trausporta
ton to market; to make recogniZances as to
several projected railroads to view its pal
scenery, and places of historical interest; to
estimate its advantages of timber; and also
the aptitude of its lands for pasturage and
tlllage, and as sites for manufacturing indus
try; aud to embrace in volume, from the
result of these inquiries, such view of the
advantages and resources of West Virginia as
may lead to a more rapid immigration into,
and settlement of the State. 1t is expected
that the expedition will leave this place about
the 10th of Nay next. and be engaged about
five months in its contemplated examination.
1t IS proposed to engage the services of COM
petent engineers, mineralogists, biologists, a
toposrapher, photographer, &C., &c. 1t is
understood that several gentlemen, distin>
guished for their scientific and literary &C.
quirements, have already volunteered their
services tor the expedition, and Mr. Faulkner
expresses confident belief that the expedi-
ton will be successfully organized according
to his expectations. NJ.

notwithstanding that the new Constitution

Lieutenant Governor under Baxter, took upon
himself to issue proclumation, refusing to
recognize the Constitution or the elections
under it. and declaring himself Governor. This
proclamation he published in paper called
''7he Republican," and having, as usual in
such cases, requested the President to send
forces to help him maintain himself, took to
his heels. Warrants for his arrest and for
that of the Publisher were issued The latter
was captured, but the former could not be

NO THIRD PARTY.

The able conservative editor of the LYNCH
burg Nrg'nian, true son of old Jefferson
and in former times an old line Wing of the
strictest sort, concludes an article under the
above caption with the following sensible re-
marks:
1.-The Democratic party, chastened and
purified, is not what it once was while the
Wing party, to which many of us were fond
" attached, aud the proud memory of which
we still cherish in our hearts, has ceased to
exist as distinct party organization. The
Northern Wings, with a few honorable ex>
ceptious. deserted Us and went into the Re-
publican camp Their recreancy dissolved
our organization aad left us utterly power
less, so that to day. there is no place for a
man of moderate views aud conservative in
stincts to stand, 10 great national struggle.
but with the regenerAted Democratic party.
These are the opinions that we honestly
entertain, in view of the great interests of the
country and we think that the time has fully
come when they ought to be expressed by all
men who 1--we country better than party
And so. believing that third party now is
impracticable, and that an attempt to organize
one. and go into the great Presidential con-
test that is before US with three candidates,
would he to continue the Radicals in power,
we deprecate all attempts of the kind. Let
us rather adhere to liberal Democratic party
that will cement and perpetuate the union
entered into by all true Conservatives at the
late election, and the union Of the States,
with the rights of the States, and the liberties
of the people, may be preserved"

Thus we see that in the States that have
so far voted this year the democrats have on
the popular vote carried twen,y>one gu, of
thirty~three. These twenty-one have 264
votes in the Electoral College. and if the dem>
ocrats would hold them in 1876 would elect
their candidates on the national ticket This
they probably will not be able to do, but still
the prospect is such as to put the republican
party on its mettle to recover the ground that
has been lost, or be worse defeated.
