Sbspberostomn Register.



We take the following from the Rich.
mond Enquirer, aud heartily concur in
wha, i, says of the distinguished gentle
man to whom it refers The important
position assigned 10. MIR. Hereford, in
the present House of Representatives
that of Chairman of. the Committee on
Commercials not only an evidence OF
the ability. he has displayed in his Con
cressiouaf- cmeer,. but also of the high
estimate in which he. is held by his Off
cial associates.
No member of the House from West
Virginia has ever been so successful as
he in receiving the needed appropria-
lions for our State, and the fact Of bis
having, at the last session, when every
item of expenditure was so closely scrI,-
,inizetl, and so reluctantly allowed, OBJ
,ained no less than $3.50, zoo Tor West
Virginia improvements, shows how in
iuen,ial he is in Washington. and how
important. it is ioretain him IN the
councils OF the country
Tmr WEST VIRGINIA SENAroRsHIP.-
Among the list of candidates for The po-
sition of United States Senator from
West Virginia VIC notice the name OF
Hon. Frank Hereford. While We dis
claim any intention Of attempting to in
tlnence the choice of the Legislature OF
our sister State, We feel that it would
not he improper tor us 10, express our
high appreciation of Mr.. Hereford s
character and abilities. He was rot
elected to the XLYth Congress, but
whether this was the result Of his own
decision or of political compilations IN
his district we are not informed. vi
one thing we feel well assured, however,
and that is that his district never had,
and we doubt if it ever will have, a
more faithful and efficient representa-
tive, or one more devoied, to the inter-
ests OF his State. OF large experience
and indomitable industry, combined
with broad practical views and a high
order of ability, we consider him one OF
the best representatives, in the ALlV,h
Congress 1t will be national as well
as a State loss when he retires from
public life. In these times, especially,
when GOODNESS, courage, experience and
neutrality-suspicious. OF the duties
and the needs of the hour are required
We can i'll afford TO part with his coun-
sells.
The people of Richmond will not
soon forget the services he rendered
Virginia as chairman of the Committee
on Commerce in the river and har5or
bill, which included the appropriation
for the improvement OF James River.
Nor do we believe that the people of
West Virginia are unmindful that to
him they are, largely indebted forthe
magnificent appropriation for the i'm
,rovement of'the great kanawha river.
The vic;ousuess of the system OF ire
aucnt changes in our National Legisla-
ture never had ayelearer exemplifcation
than in this case, and we hope to see
substituted for it that other system
which in fotmet times gave the South
snch proponderating power in Congress,
viz: the continuance of faithful and ex-
perienced representatives.

We wanted the Shenandoah Valley rail-
road company to make connection with
the Martinsburg q Potomac railroad, but
nothing would do them but make Shep-
herdstown 4 Iermini. Now that the road
is stuck fast, and the grading that much
money thrown away, the Directors see
their mistake and now ask "a subscription
from the people Of Berkeley to help them
out oftheir unwise stubbornness. Mar
tinsburg Statesman
rg" The Editor Of the Martinsburg
Statesman when he penned the foregoing
paragraph must have had a drop in his
eye which made him see double; as, other
wise he would not, perhaps, have spoken
of Shepherdstown as ga termini."
But, be this as it may, i. is difficult to
imagine how man in his sober senses could
make so many mistakes in single sem
tence, as our Martinsburg contemporary
has contrived to crowd into the above quo
ted editorial.
We, therefore, take the trouble to cor
rect him and to say for the benefit of those
who care to know the truth first-that the
Shen. Valley Railroad is NOT "stuck fast"
as arrangements are now being made to
resume work upon it'in the spring. Sec
ond, that the grading to Shcpherdstown
is lot ''that much money thrown away"
as the charter requires the main stem of
road to be within half mile of this place.
Thirdly, that the Directors do. NOT ''see
their mistake; "as they have made none so
far, at least; and fourthly, that they do
NOT "now ask subscription from the peo-
pie of Berkeley to help them out of their
unwise stubbornness." e.
For the fact is that the $75, 900 subscrip-
ton referred to is asked for not so much
for the benefit Of the S. V. r. r., rs for
that of that "stuck FAST little "mistake"
the Martinsburg and Potomac Railroad,
which really ''has been SO much money
thrown away" e and whichis now seek
ing, at its own expen Sc and that of the
people Of Berkeley to geta connection"
with the S. V. r. r, in order that it may
be made to yield ONE little return for a
very large expenditure which thus far is
Ito quote again from the Statesman) $50
much money thrown away, "and Jas every
body sees, great "mistake."

BETTER LATE THAN NEVER.

Life is a race, where some succeed,
While others are beginning;
'Tis luck at times, at others speed,
That gives an early winning,
But il you chance to fall behind,
Ne'er slacken your endeavor,
But keep this wholesome truth in mind
'Tis better late than never.
Ifyou can keep ahead, it's well,
But never trip your neighbor;
'Tis noble when you can excel,
By honest, patient labor;
But if you are outstripped at last,
Press on as bold as ever;
Remember, though you are surpassed,
'Tis better late than never.
Ee'er labor for an idle boast
OF victory DER another;
But while you strive your uttermost,
Deal fairly with brother.
Whate' er your Station, do your best,
And hold your purpose ever;
And if you fail to beat the rest,
IT'S better late than never.
Choose well the path in which you run,
Succeed by noble daring;
Then,though elast when once It's won
Your crown is worth the wearing;
Then never fret if left behind,
Nor slacken your endeavor;
But ever keep this truth in mind,
'Tis better late than never.

The OUTWARD DEMEANoR.-Much
Of the happiness Of life depends on our
outward demeanon. We all have ex-
perienced the charm of gentle and
courteous conduct we have been
drawn irresistibly towards those who
are obliging, atfable and sympathetic
in their demeanor. The friendly
grasp, the warm welcome, the cherry
tone, the encouraging word, the re-
spectful manner, bear no small share
in creating the joy of life, while the
austere tone, the stern rebuke, the
sharp and acrid remark, the cold and
Indifferent manner, the curt and dis
respectful air, the supercilious and
scornful bearing, are responsible for
more of human distress, despair, and
woe than their transient nature might
seem to warrant.

WHOLE NUN BER, 3O9.

A YOUNG man whom l know, Gays
correspondent of New York paper,
crossed the Chelsea ferry to Boston
one morning, and turned in CONNER
cial street for his usual glass. AS he
poured out the poison, the landlords
wife came in and confdentlally asked
him for $500 to purchase an elegant
shawl she had seen. He drew from
his breast pocket well filed pocket
book and counted her out the money.
The man pushed aside the glass un-
touched, and laying down ten cents,
departed in silence. That very morn
ing his devoted Christian wife asked
him for $lO to purchase cheap clock
that she might attend church. He
Grossly told her he hadn't the money.
AS he left the saloon he reflected
Here am helping to pay for $500
cashmere shawl for that mans wife,
but my wife asks in vain for $40
cloak. l can't stand this. I have
spent my last dime in drink" When
the next payday came that meek,
loving wife was surprised with
beautiful new cloak from her reform
ed husband. She could hardly be-
lieve her own eyes and ears as he laid
it out on the table and said: "There,
Emma, is present for you! I have
been fool long enough. Forgive
me for the past, and l wi not 5cucl4
liquor again" She thev '', arnrs
about his neck, and he :..- tnar +,'0
her heartfelt joy, as She lo..s~.
Charlie, thalk you a thousand
times never expected so nice a
cloak. You couldn't have selected
prettier one. This seems like other
days. Come, now, l have supper al
ready. You are so good, and l am so
happy" The great, strong noble fell
low couldn't hide his tears as he re-
lated the facts to me. He said it was
the happiest hour in ten years Of mar
ried life.

restless, and as he had been paying
her pretty sharp attention, she smiled
a proposal. She determined to help
