WEclip the following from the Mounds.
vile Nd,iOnaE
The foundation to the Capitol building
on the corner Of John and EotT streets,
Wheeling, has been commenced. The
contract has been awarded TO gentleman
from MeadvillC, Pa, for eighty.two thou'
sand dollars, but II will likely cost double
Tint before completed. The location isa
very fine one, being on hillside that
overlookS the city, convenient to hotels,
places Of business, etc. An immense pile
n earth has been slloveled out prepara-
tory to laying the foundation. The locality
Is high, somewhat retired, and more suit
able for the purpose intended than the
building formerly used. The internal
scoundfels who took II from the city,
merit the condemnation Of the yilized
world, for their reasonable conspiracy,
and for retarding the establishment Of q
capital for the state, thereby damaging II
80 badly that the wringing Of their necks
would not more than retaliOte tile out

said, "I reckon it don't make no differ
ence about that-you fellows can just
pick your place" At this roar went
up Then some one mentioned the
judges. oh, wal" said the Kentuck-
ian, " l reckon it don't make no differ
ence about that; I don't know ANYBODY
over here, and you fellows can just pick
your judges" Then the mirth was great,
but some began to pity the unsophisti-
cation of the country fellows, and seri-
ously thought of returning the money if
it was lost. The horses were brought
out, and the verdant sportsmen began to
take in small bets, and then, as the mad
ness of the thing grew apparent, the
boys from Mt Vernon Staked their
watches, revolvers and horses, all eager
to take in the harvest of cash offering.
The positions were taken, and the judges
started them for the quarter race, the
Phillipstown horse getting fourteen feet
start. But that scrub gray mar
was marvel to see. AS the horses
left, the faces Of the specta-
tors were wreathed in good-natured
smiles; these gradually changed to looks
of interest, then of doubt, and then of
rage, for the little gray horse went along
easily and swimmingly, cutting down
the Phillipstown nag without any trouble,
and came in about thirty feet ahead.
The Mount Vernon boys were sights.
They went back with tail feathers droop-
ing and broken fat of all they had taken
with them. Where the greenies" came
from OF where they went to no one knew,
and it is rather dangerous to ask the
question in Mount Vernon now
Wood County reporter. [volume] (Grand Rapids [i.e. Wisconsin Rapids], Wis.) 1857-1923, 1875-01-21
ABOUT Giving Up.

THERE are talks and talks; know by
to. You think at once of scolding or
lecturing, in which senses the expression
is sometimes used.
Now, being talked ao5th is quite diff
ferent thing, | am of the opinion that
if parents and friends would oftener talk
with little people simply, inteligentlY,
listening to what the little people have
to say in reply, it would be much better
than to always reprove and admonish
them from a sort of grown-up pinnacle
where they are not allowed to answer
back
To answer an older person saucily is of
course very wrong; but to answer
thoughtfully is one of the best things a
child can do, for it leads her to think for
herself. The long words and set phrases
child hears in the form of advice and
reproof are apt to go in at one ear and
out at the other but the little talk in
which she herself takes part is sure to
make an impression.
IL O1ISI pCISOuS WC1C hdOIGudIIJ "
make more patient and loving effort to
find out just how children think and feel,
and more respect was manifested for
these thoughts and feelings, which, if
wrong, ought to be corrected, and if
right encouraged and helped, young and
old would live together in far greater
harmony and to better purpose.
Now, what I want to do is, in fancy, to
gather bevy of you girls-Meg and
Fanny and Bess and Ruth and Jane, and
as many more as choose to come-and
chat with you pleasantly on various sub
iects. And first about giving up"
Giving up is not pleasant thing, and al
ready can see pouting lips and frown-
ing brows. 1t is quite like dose Of Bit
ter medicine, which leaves bad taste in
the mouth; but the medicine must be
tak.n if we would get well of fever,
and we must learn to submit if we would
live at all happily in the world.
Obstinacy is not always the hard, re-
pulsive thing in appearances it is pop
ularly supposed to be. Sometimes it
smiles, and speaks in a low, soft voice,
and seems at a glance to be very amiable
and lovely; still it persists, and carries
its point in the end, no matter how much
others may suffer the consequences.
This is the worst kind of willfulness to
