willingly avoid either vague or intricate
inquiries. 1t is only certain plain and
practicable traits OF such legislation that
desire to recommend to your attention.
In any legislation providing for silver
coinage, regulating its value and impart-
ing to it the quality of legal tender, it
seems to me OF great importance that
Congress should not lose sight of its &C.
tlon as operating in a twoiold capacity
and in two distinct directions. II the
United States government we're free
from a public debt its legislative deal
ings with the question Of sill.
yer coinage would be purely sovereign
and governmental, under no restraints
but these Of constitutional power and the
public good, as affected by the proposed
legislation.
"8ut IN the actusi circumstances Of the
nation, with vast public debt distributed
very widely among our own citizens,
and held in great amount also
abroad, the nature of the
silver coinage measure, as affecting the
relation Of the government to holders OF
the public debt, becames an element IN
any proposed legislation OF the highest
concern. The obligation of the public
faith trandescends all questions Of profit
or public advantage otherwise and its un-
questionable maintenance will eyer be
carefully guarded by Congress and the
people alike. 1t can not even add TO
our peoples sense Of this obligation to
know, as they do, that such maintenance
is the dictate as well Of the highest ex.
pedlency as of the most necessary duty"

SOUTH BRANCH
$4OO,OO0 Swept Away.
Awful Destruction by the
Flood in Hardy County.
MooREFIELD, w. Va, Nov. 80.

Special Dispatch 10 the Register.
have been intending 10 give you
brief account of the terrible destruction
of property in the South Branch Valley,
caused by the flood of last week, but
really the country has been in such
state of excitement that could not sit
still long enough to do so.
The South Branch was higher by five
feet than it ever has been before WITHIN
the memory of any one now living. The
whole valley from one mountain tc the
other, was covered with water from three
to fifteen feet deep. All the corn on the
Branch in this county and Hampshire
has been swept away. 1t is estimated
that 10000 shocks have gone
from this county alone. Many
of the largest farmers on the
Branch in this county have
not a single shock o: corn lett. They
arc compelled to start Their cattle ana
hogs TO market ii oacc, on account OF
having no corn to feed them with. All
the fencing has also been swept away
and this is very serious loss TO most OF
the Branch farmers, because they have
not the timber to replace ths :ails from.
There is not one farmer on the Branch
who has net nearly lest his whole
wears work. | Go lot thluk the loss
will fall lar below 100000 Oh the South
Branch in this county. The people In
the Les. River Valley in this county have
been nearly swept away also. 1t Is ter.
rible 70 ride over this valley and see the
treat destruction of property. do not
think tho the lands on the South Branch
have been damaged any, but on the
South Fork OF the South Branch
some OF tho farms have jus!
been literally washed away. L wSs
told this morning hy reliable
centicman that there were several farms
on the South Fork thst were lot worth
farming again. &m satisfied, from what
| have seen myself, that the whole four
wears of the late war did not do tins

veDtion is one of great Importance, a
fact that is fully realized, we have no
doubt, by those who will participate IN
its deliberations. Tho Church in this
State Is poor ard weak, and it will
take energetic work directed by intelli-
gence to build it up rs it should be built
Not only should man of brains and cul-
ture be selected for the important work,
but one possessing the physical ability
and the will 10 go out into the highways
and the byways, and one who can face
the storms and buffet the waves, to gath
or lambs TO the fold. He should be
man full of the vigor of youth and an
enthusiastic faith In his mission, who is
willing to sacrifice his personal ease, and
st all times put duty before pleasure.

OTHER POINTS n
THE STATE

The Piedmont correspondent OF the
Keyser Echo says: The particulars o
the drowning OF Mrs. HiGes are ~ fol-
lows: She lived upon an island opPc-
site the load house, ut the Hampshire
mines, and during the night the discovery
was made that it would be impossible to
get oil the island without the nd ci skill
or boat, but having neither OF these NJ
hand, her son, John Hines, hastily con
structed raft, upon when he tired To
cross the Branch, upon the Virginia side.
When they had gotten p short distance
from the island the raft broke and each
were plunged into rough waters. Mr..
Hines did all in his power 70 rescue his
drowning mother, but was compelled to
give up and barely escaped with his own
lie. At this writing the body has not
been recovered. The damage done here
is light. 1t Is as follows:
The houses back OF Ashield street are
damaged some by the water standing IL
them long enough to soil the paperlng
and ssturate the plastering. The sus.
pension bridge extending from Western
port to Hendrickson's island was torn
AWAY, and the residence of Mr.. Michael
Kalbauch was considerably injured. The
Cum berlsnd and Pennsylvania railroad
is damaged to considerable extent, the
trestle work being torn away. Tine bank
