While the company will be enabled
from the beginning TO sell ut an increase
Of several hundred per cent, and at the
same time offer lots at very low prices.
the probability is that in a few years the
remaining lots will be largely increased
in value and realize MANY times the pres
ent prices. 4 safer and better investment
has never been offered to the pubiic-there
can be no question Of loss there can bc
only steady increase in value from year
10 wear. Charleston is the natural manu-
featuring center Of the Kanawha VALLEY
with cheap coal, iron ore, fire clay, lime
stone, lumber, salt, &c. Immediately sur
rounding the city, aud good transporia-
ton east and west. in word ~ great
manufacturing advantages as are possessed
bv any city in America, it can be but a
short time until our present manuiacto-
rics are double and trcbled. and every
foot Of r'al estate greatly increased in val
ne. The present owners only sell because
obliged t. dispose of an interest.
The title is perfect; all liens now ON
any portion of the land will be either can
celled or secured in a satisfactory man.

RUNNING A NEWSPAPER.

Running a newspaper is like light
ing fire in bad weather Every
one thinks he can do it better than
the one who has lis hand in. Through
some misrepresentation Of facts a large
class of people have come to the idea
that it costs little or nothing to con-
duct newspaper, and that most
every one can do it as well, if not
better than the one that publishes the
paper. 1t has become general fash
ion for persons to call at any newapa-
per office and ask for a copy Of the
paper, having no idea that it costs
the publisher money and hard work
to print and buy the paper. There
is no business in which there is more
or even as much financial risk as in a
newspaper, and few businesses in
which there is as much capital invest
ed. More than eight millions have
been lost in newspaper schemes IN
the last year. A newspaper is an ar
ticle for sale and cannot be had for
nothing. There are few businesses
which require the common sense and
good Judgment as to conduct a news
paper proftably and to the interest
of the public. Few persons think
that every little item has to be read
over and over, TO consider the good
points and the bad, and to see wheth-
err it will be TO your interest to pub
fish it. Most every one who can write
at all thinks he understands the
whole profession better than the one
who has his hand in. 1t Is fact
most every one who can write at all,
has some thoughts which he or she
can put on paper, but what Of them.
The readers of the paper will not be
interested in them, and if the plan is
kept up, the readers will lose inter
est in the paper, and by and by drop
of, leaving the concern in a pitiful
wreck. To conduct newspaper so
that it will be read with more inter
est each week, is what every one who
has an idea of publishing paper
must do. An editor must be untired,
if he wishes to make his paper inter
esting. He must never be content
with filling his columns each week,
but try to fill them with the news
in as condensed and acceptable Il
manner as possible. To do all the
above things, dothem well in eachand
every week in the year is what few
have an idea of doing, and what few
have an idea of having to be done,
unless they know something OF the
business. 1t requires a steady and
sensible person to conduct a newspa-
per that it may be financially prof
table. 1t is not the writing alone,
but putting it up in tasteful style
that every one will like to read it,
and make it financially profitable

Serious Cutting ARRAY.

On Sunday last, Mr.. Bumgardner
the popular landlord of the Logan
House at Barboursville, was terribly
cut BY his son>in-law Frank Peyton.
The circumstances as far as we can
ascertain them are rs follows.
There had been some previous diff
fculty between the parties, and on
Sunday morning, Peyton met Mr..
Bumgardner on the street, and asked
him to step into space between two
stores near which they met, saying
that he wanted 70 speak to him. He
