How to Get Rich

Nothing is more easy than to grow
rich. 1t is only to trust nobody-to
befriend none-to get everything and
save all yeu get-to stint ourselves
and everybody belongs to us-to be
mean, misery and depressed, for
some twenty OF thirty years-and
riches will come as sure as disease
and disappointment. And when
pretty nearly enough wealth is col
lected by a disregard of all the char
tiles of the human heart, and at the
expense of every enjoyment save
that of. wallowing in filthy mean
ness-death comes to finish the work.
The body is buried in a hole, the
heirs dance over, and the spirit goes

TO the Editors Of the Independent:
Give me alittle space while I make
a few suggestions, not only to repub-
licans, but numerous others whom /
know will oppose the ticket nomina-
ted by the democrats. You want
good, honest men, capable of trans
acting your business, just and gener-
Gus, to whom the people of all par
ties can tie and receive even-handed
dealing and prompt protection. The
most important local positions are
the Sheriffalty, States Attorney and
Judge of the County Court. Here
are the men who can be elected viz:
For Sheriff, John w. LamOn, Of
Mill Creek for Prosecuting Attor-
ney, Henry b. Miller, of Arden !; for
Judge of the democratic plague call
ed the County Court, Hon. B. NJ.
Kitchen. The independent, thinking
men of this county will vote for
these gentlemen. Add to these the
names of reliable, solid men for the
House of Delegates and Assessors,
and they will sweep the county bya
rousing majority.

..Shnot the Hatv

We take the following from the
Wheeling Standard, which will be
enjoyed by the many friends of Col.
Lamon in this place, all of whom
have at some time or other seen him
under that famous sun-stroke pre-
tentative cork hat, which he sported
around here when the mercury was
90 in the shade: The Standard says:
Apropos of Col. Ward Lamon, who
is now mentioned as a candidate for
Congress in the Second district, and
who, by the way, is an exceedingly
clever gentleman, an amusing Incl
dent happened during one of his re-
cent visits to this city in connection
with his practice before the Court of
Appeals. One of the Colonel's weak
nesses is a penchant for big hats,
and he generally goes about under a
big head-gear which would put Col.
Mulberry Sellers famous 'stitle" to
shame. On the occasion referred to
he had finished an argument before
the court, and was taking the air in
the neighborhood Of the Third ward
school house, under an exaggerated
"hand-me-down," which looked like
a cross between a sorghum pan, and
wash boiler, when some Of the juve-
niles connected with the educational
institute referred to, got after him,
and earnestly implored him to
''shoot" the head covering referred
to, accompanying the request with
yells of Boon! Boom which made
the occasion sound like the second
day at Gettysburg. The Colonel
stood it like a man for a while, but
finally succumbed and took refuge
in a store, where he remarked conf
dentially to the clerk, who tied up
some tracts for him, that he had
Travelled from Maine to California,
and he would be everlastingly lost if
he had seen such a lot of divinely
condemned hat artillerists since the
Lord made him, as the gang on the
outside.

Reduction OF w ares

The Keyser Echo says that on Sun
day last Nj. Sharp, Master of Trans
portation, came to Keyser and made
a reduction of fifty cents per day on
the wages of the hands on the road,
from engineer to brakeman. This is
q heavy blow to the employees, but
viii make an aggregate saving to
6he Company, we II informed, on
che division between Keyser and
MarJinsburg, OF $4,000 per month";
We presume the Company is compel
led to make this reduction on ac-
count of the railroad war, and the
reduced rates at which the road is
compelled to transport freight. This
road, as compared to western roads,
has always been more prompt in pay
,ng its employees.

WHAT Milk Will Do.

Attention has been called 10 the
daily papers to a practice prevalent
in some parts of the country, which
appears to illustrate the power pos
sessed by milk of absorbing atmos-
pheric impurities. 1t is that of plac-
ing a saucer of milk in a larder to
preserve meat or game from faint
1t is said that not only does it an
swer that purpose, but that the milk
after a few hours becomes so bad that
no animal viii touch it. This is
probably one cause of the milk turn
ing sour when placed in a refrigera-
tor with vegetables, etc.

A Little Common sense.

There is scarcely a newspaper pub
lished from n end of the year to the
other that will not, If critically con-
sidered, give offence to somebody in
the community. The politician OBJ
jects to the way his speech is report
ed. The buyers of one set of shares
are offended because the money col
umn reports another set as going up
or going down, Gentlemen who find
themselves in the hands Of the po-
lice are grieved at the license of the
press, which reports their arraign-
ment and trial among the police pro-
ceedings. The synpathiser with
France is offended at letters from
Berlin, and the believer in German
unity mourns over dispatches from
Paris. The newspaper thus offends
some one, just as the weather-rainy
to-day and sun-shiny to-morrow-is
sure to annoy somebody. The COM
mon sense view is that the newspa-
per is the history of yesterday writ
ten to-day; that it is the mirror of
the time, and that those who conduct
it care nothing for individuals ex-
cept to do them justice.-Er.

over the location of a college under

Dungee.
HARPER's FERRY,
August 10, 1876.

To the Editors ofts Independent
J. w. Dungee, a colored clergy
man, who, the Statesman informs
its readers, is noted for high char
acter, Christian piety and great
eloquence, very Enthusiastically,
as we think the sequel will show,
has addressed letter to that paper,
complaining Of the way he was
treated by certain bad people-of
his own color, it is presumed, on a
recent visit of his to Martinsburg.
Some OF them saying that he ought
to be hanged. Now when the
Statesman, a paper that has ever
been the scurrilous defamer and
caricaturist Of the coloIed race at
tributes 'high character" "Chris-
tian piety'' and great eloquence to
a colored man, there must be an
explanation other than is appar-
ent, some where. In the present
instance we need look for that eX-
PLANTATION no further than Dun
gees letter. 1t throws a world OF
light on the whole affair. Mr.
Dungee favors the election of Til
den and Hendricks. He says so
in his letter. Surely here is expla-
nation sufficient. If this does not
entitle him to Democratic honors,
then virtue no longer has its own
reward.
Mr.. Dungee in his letter above
referred to. not satisfied with COM
planning of the bad treatment he
received, proceeds to criticise the
political conduct of his race. He
says for instance, that for years
they have gone to the polls and
voted for Radicals without regard
to the moral character of the cam
didate. AS for. him, wiser and
more pious than they, he means
on moral and religious ground, we
presume-to vote for Tilden in
preference to Hayes. The endose-
ment of Morrissey, the gambler,
has more weight with him than
has the blameless record of the
statesman and soldier, Hayes. This
we think. settles ell question as to
the intelligence aud morality Of
Dungee; the morality however, is
just of that sort to which we should
hate to trust our pecket-boOk.
Again, Mr.. Dungee while here,
stated, in explanation of his new
political position, that he owed
nothing to the Republican party.
We are afraid that notwithstand-

Getting Ready.

From the suggestions made by a
correspondent elsewhere presenting
the names of Messrs. Lamon, Miller
and Kitchen, it is evident that the
democratic nominees will have their
hands full, and that a good deal of
the result will depend on the indie
pendent voters of the county. We
have also heard several prominent
names mentioned in connection with
the legislature and assessorship.

Big Excursion.

The excursion from Baltimore and
Washington to Harper's Ferry on
Thursday was an immense affair.
There were fifty-seven car loads of
the excursionists numbering over five
thousand persons. Harper's Ferry
was owe run with people. The ex-
cursionists enjoyed the day in view
ing the scenery in and about the Fer
ry, and returned to their homes in
the evening well satisfied with the
trip.

The committee would doubtless do

their time and patience would be too

ing the "piety" of Mr., Dungee, we
shall have to convict him not only
of a paltry attempt at disingenu-
business, but of falshood and ingrat-
itude. DuDgee was a slave-ran
away from his master-secured his
own freedom, and thus, owes moth
ing to the Republican party. PRAY,
if it had not been for the under
ground railroad, 1.-THE existence and
influence of which Mr.. Dungee will
hardly question, seeing that for
three or four years, he was its
agent in these parts), how far
would the leg-bail of this migrate
have carried him? In the great
emergency of his life to which we
are referring, having achieved his
freedom, who was it that secured
it to him Sam Tilden. Alas!
Had he then depended on Sam
Tilden, or the copperheads of the
north, he'd bave been sent back to
a slavery severer than ever. And
yet-the Migrate! He owes moth
ing to the Republican party.
But again: Let Us suppose that
this man personally owes nothing
to the Republican party, what
then! Has he no consideration
no sympathy for his race? A few
years ago, millions of that race
were slaves. To-day they are free.
Since then, constitutional amend
ments, and Congressional legisla-
ton. full civil rights have been Sc
cured to them, in SO much so, that
to-day, colored men sit, as MEM
bers in both houses of Congress.
This great work, the.crowning work
of the country, has been the work
of the Republican party; and yet
this man says he owes nothing to
the Republican party, and means
to vote for the party that only sur-
rendered the freedom of the slave
at the point of the bayonet, and
since the war, has bitterly opposed
the passage of every measure that
tended to make freedom anything
more than a mere name.
Discussing these matters, while
here, MI. Dungee repeat
Gully lCiCLICO W HlS IlDTdIy,
and what he could prove if he was
in his library. His library! If it
had not been for the Republican
party what library would ne have
had? "Ah J" said 4 colored man
to the writer, \ few days ago:
"Dungee talks about his library
Books often mislead people; but
there are words written on my
back-writtsn there long years
ago, that there is no mistake
about. 1t is no WONDER" said he;
a sudden thought seeming to take
possession of him: sit is no won
der that Dungee dresses so well,
and rides free on oil southern rail-
reads, and has . library, for 1 tell
you, q cOlered man must be we'll
paid before he'll vote for the DEM
ocrats." 1t is even SO. But when
a man, be he white or colored,
stoops tosmeanness-sells his prin-
ciples, and accepts 4 bride, whether
it be in suits OF broad-cloth, free
railroad patses, assurance of a sit
uation in a State house, or hard
cash, he must not be surprised if
wherever he goes he Is met by the
indignation OF the people. x.

Ger Rhodes, on information, charg-

house in Phillippi, Barbour county.
