We did not misapprehend the position
assumed by Dr. Sears in his correspond
ence with Mr.. Lusher relative to the
Peabody fund, and insist that we did not
misinterpret the meaning of the former.
He first notified the local agent that opera
tons were to be suspended for the present
in consequence of the unsettled state of
affairs here. When asked by Mr.. Lusher
what he means by an unsettled state of
affairs, the doctor rather frankly says
"What l should call vel, settled state
OF affairs would be to have you (Mr.
Ausher) Superintendent ofpublic schools. I"
This we regard as virtual admission
that it is the duty of the general agent of
the Peabody fund to turn over the money
allotted to this State to the Superintend-
ent, instead of committing it to the ad-
ministration of private gentleman who
is engaged in running opposition educa-
tional institutions. Were Mr.. Lusher the
real State Superintendent, Dr. Sears would
see no difficulty in the matter, because
in that case his public duties could be re.
conciled to his private and political bias
or prejudices. But the people of this
State have had the taste, good or bad, to
choose another man to serve in that CO.
pacity, and DR.. Sears finds affairs in an
unsettled state in consequence. Unless
the Peabody fund can be administered in
this State by a Democrat in the interests
of the Democratic party, DR.. Sears is de-
termined we shall have none at all. He
is an admirer of Mr.. Lusher. He tells
him as much. He praises him highly, is
not dissatisfied with him, but is discour.
aged with his want Of success as an Office
seeker. He must withdraw the annual
supply of money which be has so long
permitted to be diverted from public to
private uses and hold it until Mr.. Lusher
or some other Democrat can write Estate

have been working under discourage
ments, says the doctor, 'hoping in time
to see State system through which we
could operate"
What DR.. Sears can have to do, as gen.
eral agent Of an educational fund, with
the work of regulating State systems, we
are at some loss to see. If he expects to
influence the seventy or eighty thousand
Republican voters Of Louisiana by offer
ing or withholding the pitiful sum of
seven or eight thousand dollars year,
less some deductions for expenses, he is
mistaken. Our State system suits us. If
the doctor is not pleased with it, it may
be small pecuniary misfortune to us for
the present, but is otherwise of no special
consequence, Life is too short to root up
an admirable school system to suit the
within Of one venerable old gsntlaman, An

himself in position for which be, Is in

The Wellsburg NeitS Oi yesterday man
iiesls some inpatience over the fact that
the Directors Of this road have not yet

the vote Of Brooke county In January
last in favor Of paying her share Of the
debt, and thinks that II is about time the
two counties had settled with the crCd-
itors and put The road in condition to be
taken hold ofby parties who arc prepared
to finish It.
We presume that the road Is not as yet
suffering 10 any marked degree because
its debts are not all paid, OF course In
terest is running against II, but then
interest would be running against the
two counties for tho borrowed money were
tho debts now paid. We believe with the
Mtrs, However, that these debts should be
paid of as soon as possible, and the road
relieved Of every obstacle to any ad-
vantagcous negotiation that looks to
its completion at an carly day. In
this connection we may mention that
we continue to hear what we re-
gard as favorable news respecting the
likelihood of responsible parties taking
hold Of The road. II is known to some
shrcwd capitalists that very little actual
cash Is needed to complete 1t. ThcSitua.

We would give the Charleston papers a
little wholesome advice II we thought
they were in any mood to be advised.
They, of course, have great contempt for
anything in the nature Of advice from this
quarter, but It Is nevertheless true, even
though it Is a Wheeling paper that says 1t,
that they are making fools Of themselves
in talking about Charleston having been
robbed Of tho Capital, Such language
may do we'll enough for the Charleston
Courier, whose editor i5simply machine
for venting malicious CpithctS, but the
Journal ought to be above anything Of tho
kind. We should like the editor to ex-
plain, in good faith, what he means by
Nthe high.handcd robbery that Wheeling

iciso tho word cher" The expression
seems so peculiar that We feel obliged to
give II prominence. Whatdocs tho editor
mean by IL? The State Of West Virginia

at Charleston. No body hero said that
Wheeling or tho Ohio river valley had
been robbed, and still less that either OF
them had been robbed of her Capital,
While they did not exactly initiate tho
meek and submissive spirit OF him who
said "thc Lord givCth and the Lord

served their own self respect no far as not
to whine over the result or blaCkgnard

bcrs Of the Legislature to say that Wheel
Ing, through their COnnivnnca or ignor-
ance, (fOr Il must be one or the other)

tol. Althoughit It would perhaps scarcely
amount to an act Of petty larceny to rob
the Kanawha Valley Of the entire city of
Charleston, yet the charge becomes Scri'
Gus when 1t Is interpreted as meaning that
the members were q party to fraud
when they voted to remove the Capital Of
the State to Wheeling. There Is some
thing decidedly small in such way ol
Cllaracterising legitimate act Of lcgisla'
tion. There Ia certainly nothing dignilled
in 1t, and nothing that will commend
Charleston to the good gruces Of the peO'
pie OF the State.
