WASHINGTON AND LEE UNIVERSITY
General Washington made in his will an lm'
porlant gift TO an ancient institution OF learn
ing, then called Liberty Hall Academy, in Vlr-
ginia. Founded before the Revolution as a
classical academy, it received the charter uoder
which it now works in 1882 aud was called
Washington College in 1928. Besides Wash
iugton it had among its bcoelactors the Society
of the Cincinnati and General Harry Lee, the
father of Gen. Robert +. Lee. 1t was always
an important institution, and until he war OF
the rebellion was handsomely endowed. Alter
the war, 10 which 1t was crippled 10 Its re,
sources, General Lee became its President, and
at his death lie was succeeded by his son, Gen
eraI G. W. &. Lee.
Last year, during the CcntenDlal celebration,
it was proposed by q number OF the moss emf

TEE ASHTABULA DISASTER.
Report of the Legislative
Committee.

Columbus, O., March 22.-The specia
Legislative Committee appointed to in
vestigate the late Ashtabula disaster sub
mitted their report to-day, accompanied
by a vast amount of testimony, which
was ordered printed. The committee
after going into details showing the i'm.
perfections in the bridge, report as fol-
lows:
First-There was from eighty to one
hundred lives lost by the falling Of the
bridge.
Second-The bridge went down under
an ordinary load by reason of defects in
the original construction.
Third-The defects in the original con-
struction of the bridge could have been
discovered at any time after its erection
by careful inspection such as the impor-
tance of the structure demanded, and
thus the sacrifice of life and property
prevented. The Truth is, the bridge was
liable to go down any time during the
last ten or eleven years under loads that
might at any time be brought upon it in
the ordinary course of the company's
business, and it is most remarkable that
it did not sooner occur. 1t would be
needless to say that an engineer would
be derelict in his duty who did not pro-
vide in his construction of bridge
against wind, snow, ice and the vibration
of rolling load, They are as much to
be anticipated and provided against as
the law of gravity.
This report is accompanied by q bill
specifying how bridges Of different spans
shall be built.

A DEAF MAN TALKS POLITICS.

One of the oldest and most disreputa
BILE citizens ofSan Antonio, Texas, forgot,
as was his usual custom, to pay for the
smile he had just taken. The old gem
tleman is little deaf, too. The bar
keeper mildly intimated that if he had an
extra quarter about him it would not be
refused with scorn in part payment.
Another extra out, is there?' he re-
marked, moving toward the door.
When are you going to pay that IS
cents, hey3 said the barkeeper in a
raised tone Of voice, moving gently to-
ward him.
The old gentleman nodded and hal
looed back;
Yes, Hayes is in. Eight of the fifteen
went for him.
The barkeeper sidled up towards him
to get a square kick. observing rather
excitedly, You are acting damn badly
Damn Bradley, that's just what
say and he slid out just as the foot
went up in the air, and was visible for a
moment over the top of the swinging
doors, while the aforesaid old customer
continued on down the street, with a
smile on his face as if the angels were
whispering to him.

WHAT THE PAPERS SAY.

Lockport IN. ~ Union,--The Demo.
cratic sentiment all over the State was
never more healthy than at the present
time. From all sections come reports OF
renewed determination to reorganize
and continue the battle for national su-
premacy That Mr.. Tilden was Gefraud-
ed there is but one mind, and that to
save the republic is now more than ever
before, the immediate work of the De-
mocracy, is concerted by all. Let there
be willing hands and cheerful hearts to
enter upon this patriotic labor.

half of the Radical papers of this State

HORRIBLY GORED BYA BULL

From the Newcomerstown Argus, Mar. II.
Our Cambridge correspondent says
The people Of Cambridge were startled
again Tuesday evening by the news that
one its citizens had been gored to death
by bull. Billy Johnson, colored man,
in the employ of DIR. Mcpherson, had
been tending to the stock as usual, and
while driving a bull from water to the
stable was attacked by him and horned
in a terrible manner. He was struck in
the side with one horn, which penetrated
to some distance, and he had been
caught by one of his horns in the crotch
and torn in the direction of the groin,
besides other smaller gashes. Some per-
sons came to Johnson's rescue, and car
ried him to DR.. McPherson's house,
where his wounds were examined and
dressed by Drs, Wall and Taylor. He
lived nearly two hours after he had been
gored, suffering dreadfully all the time.
One who witnessed the attack says he
would throw him up and toss him about
like ball, then carry and drag him some
distance on his horns The bull has al
ways been very peaceable, and could be
handl d by any person, and had never
shown any signs Of being cross. DR..
Mcpherson got the first premium on him
at the State Fair. He is beautiful ami
NAL, and it seems a pity to- kill him, but
some cold lead would be the best thing
we could prescribe for him.

A mild dose of compulsory education is
about TO be tried on in Ohio, which pro.
vides that extremely poor children shall
be furnished books free. Victuals and
clothes would bein order for the same class
and the State has the same right to furn-
ish one that it has the other. The idea
Of compelling people to be good, sober
and educated by process of law, with
penalties attached, is fast becoming a
governing principle of Republicans. Gov,
ernment must take charge of the business
social, marital and family departments Of
life. Consolidation of power, concentra-
ton of interests, autocratic control in the
hands of central authority, is the central
and monopolizingide of the present race
of Republican politicians = Pittsburgh

A STAGE ROBBER DIES GAME.

The stage rober Corlow died Of his
wounds Thursday night, Eugene Blair,
the messenger who shot him, was with
him to the time of his death endeavoring
to get information from him concerning
the robbery. Carlow was game to the
last, and refused to speak a word impli-
eating any one. He said had the stage
been on time they would have fixed him
(Blair,) and also told the driver that his
time would soon come. The supposition
is that there were more than two men
engaged in the robbery, and the stage be-
ing behind time part of the gang had
gone down to the other road, leaving
Carlow and Crawford on the lookout on
the usually travelled road.-Eureka (Neu.)

CURTOSITTES OF CRIME.

GREENsBURGH, IND, March I3.-The
preliminary examination in the case of
the State of Indiana VS.. Hiram Clark and
John Shook, for the murder Of Freder-
ick w. Chance, ended to-day. The
murder was committed on Monday
night, the 5th inst, at ratification meet.
ing held in honor of the election of Re-
turning Board Hayes. The deceased
was Democrat, and was killed by an
active Republican.
The case was tried by good Repub-
lican Justice of the Peace. The proof
was clear and conclusive against the de-
PENDANTS, as given by eye witnesses and
numerous confessions proved on the
trial. The defendants offered no evil
dence In their own behalf. The proof
of malice was clear and strong, and the
murder was one Of the foulest kind. The
deceased was unarmed at the time he
was killed, and made no attack on the
defendants nor offered them any vio-
lence. The Republican Justice of the
Peace fixed the bond of the defendant
Clark at S25o, and discharged the de-
fendant Smood. No instance is known
here where so small bond has been
required for SO foul murder, or any
kind of murder.

kindly looked after by Hayes. Freder-
lex Douglas had no sooner displaced him
as Marshal of the District of Columbia,
than Sharp was appointed a Major and
Paymaster in the army, and assigned to
duty at Washington. This is very soft
place. Is Hayes going to look out for the
whole Grant family with like solicitude ?

A story is told of young lady living

lovers-a Dover farmer and a Cleveland
salesman. The farmer met his rival on
the highway one dark night and attacked
him with knife, but the lady rushed
between them and prevented bloodshed.

two, and then challenged his rival to
meet him and fight it out 1t was done

hour, the country lover cried enough I"

fused to 60, and the Cleveland salesman
was duly awarded the prize. There was
