The next Presidency

Editors ot the Intelligencer:
In your paper of the 10Th inst, there
was communication suggesting Hon
Waitman T. Wiley, as the Republican
candidate for the next Presidency. Mr..
Wiley is IN eminently worthy gentleman
and one whom West Virginia Republi'
cans would delight to honor; but is his
reputation sufficiently national TO justify
his being placed in the list Of Presiden.
tial aspirants? 1t does appear that II
would look a little more practical and
common sense like to suggest him for the
Vice Presidency, though in national
nominating conventions, small States
like West Virginia are usually left out
in the cold, and | am not sure but that
it is waste OF words to name any West
Virginia Republican; even for the Vice
Presidency.
In regard to the Presidency the senti'
ment Of the Republican party through
out the nation appears to be rapidly
growing in favor Of Hon. james g. Blain,
Of Maine; ex-Speaker Of the House Of
Representatives, man in every respect
worthy Of the position, and one who can
be elected. Let the Republicans OF West
Virginia endorse Blaine.
REPUBLICAN,,

II the elder Adams could have re.vis.
tied the glimpses Of the moon last night
he would have seen OF the travail of his
soul and been satisfied. Al least he would
have felt that in writing as he did to his
wife after signing the Declaration of In
dependence he had not essayed the role Of
aprophet in vain. He certainly was pos
sessed Of the divine afllatus when he put
on record the prediction that the act then
consummated by the Continental Congress
"would increase in Importance with the
years." that coming generations would
usher in It's recurring anniversaries
with "every concomitant Of joyous de-
monstration;" that "bells would be rung,
bon6res lit, cannon fred, and the "whole
area OF the country become the theatre OF
a joyous holiday"
Many times as this prediction of the
sturdy old Continental patriot has been
fulfilled we fancy that 1t was never so
completely fulfilled as last night, taking
the scenes witnessed in our community as
aspecimen of the country through. II
Wheeling never celebrated the Declara-
ration OF Independence with noise enough
before she did it full justice last night.
We have heard Of "beating the tom-tom,"
sounding the hew-gag,"." making the well
kin ring" "making Rome how" "letting
pandemonium loose" and all that
sort Of thing, but these various
expressions never took "bodily shape
and form incarnate' just as they did last
night. For an hour before midnight and
for two hours thereafter, there was surge
OF noisy humanity in the streets such as
the Oldest inhabitant had never witnessed,
and as for the clamor that arose at mid.
night of dangling bells out of tune"
mingled with the resonant discord Of
horns, drums, fire.crackerS, pistols, steam
engine whistles, and the shouts Of half
the boys in Wheeling, who shall
describe it, We now know what the
saturnalia Of ancient Rome must have
been, and what the Carnival Of modern
Rome must be. And as for Dante's hadcs,
where sounds supcrnal clashed with
sounds Internal" and reberverated their
discord even back to heaven, we have lost
all curiosity to visit the place and see If
it is reallyao. We had the whole thing
here last night. Let us be thankful that
none Of US will ever live to see q second
Centennial ushered In.

The Charleston Tragedy-The
Sheriff Eludes the LyncherS
and Lodges his Prisoners In the
BarbOurHVille Jail.

CHARLESTON, W. Va, December 81.
Special to the IntClliseneCr.
The mob last night failing to find
Sheriff Morgan and prisoners, dispersed
just before daylight. They spared no
efforts, however, to make their undertake
ing success. Sheriff Morgan and guards
with the prisoners left in skiff at 2
o'clock and went to Stabbans and took
the morning train for Barboursville,
where they lodged the prisoners in Jail
and returned home this morning. 1t is
thought that the mob cannot get to Bar
louisville in body strong enough to
force the release Of the prisoners,t though an
effort is being organized for that purpose.
Out Of the 500 parties in the mob last
night not one was drunk, and it was a
sober and deliberate movement to lynch
two of the vilest murderers yet unhung.
