Letter from Wheeling.
January "a, 1877.

January "a, 1917.
Mr.. Editor-The daily papers viii
keep YOU advised as to the voting 1or
United States Senators, the influences AT
work on that question are various, ana
to some extent justifiable; to great de-
gree sensurable; we can however console
ourselves by the conviction that tue NOR
al and iutellectual status of the present
legislature in large measure Is above
the modern mode and appliances OF cor
rupting such bodies-not much whlskey
with buttermilk, only one! | here sug-
gest an amendment TO our election laws,
and make it the duty of our legislature,
in balloting for the election of Senators,
to drop in each succeeding vote the low
est candidate, this would soon eliminate
in an election of the strongest and i'll most
instances best man.
Most of the legislation so far which has
been done, and carved out, is of tolera-
bly, fair character, my prejudiced vision
however sees too much in the interest OF
a certain class, and strengthen ny Tor
mer convictions that must select your
best intellects from the rural districts
send them here, and keep them here,
until they are schooled up and qualified
by legislative training TO successfully
cope with the deXterous professional
men.
Your townsman, Senator c. 7. Butler,
made his maiden speech on Monday, In
support of the appropriation for Normal
Schools, it was very creditable effort;
now that he has got off the stage fright,
it is TO be hoped that he may be heard
from more frequently, there are abundant
occasions. see but one drawback TO him

matters. to restrain his liberality towards
measures designed for general benefit;
time and experience will tend to cure this
defect.
We have met to-day with Mr.. Jas. II.
Grove OfyOur County. who we presume
is here looking after the interest of the
proposed Jefferson County Agricultural
College,; this scheme should be earnestly
supported by the gentlemen from Jetfer-
son and surrounding counties, because of
the future benefits that inevitably innure
to any community, blessed with liberal
educational advantages the leading in
terest of your section being agricultural,
the youths should be trained up in first
class schools where they would be inn
pressed with the importance and dignity
of their pro bable lite time pursuits: far
mers who are generally the heaviest tax
payers attach too little Importance to a
high standard of education, as though
there was 4 necessary antagontsm be-
tween high degree OF mental culture and
labor.
Since writing the above we have been
informed that Mr.. Grove has been afford
ed an opportunity of addressing joint
meeting Of the committee on education
of both houses, in behalf of 4 bill looking
to the material aid of the College, and his
effort is highly spoken of by those who
heard him. SPECTATOR.

promise plan:
Governor Kemper says: "Looking to
all the plans of settlement which are

ly for the joint report.
Judge Cochran, of Augusta, is for
the report in the interests of peace and
the business interests of the country.
II. A Coghill, member Of the Ma
tional Committee, says: 81 heartily en-
dorse the report of the joint committee. "
Hon. II. NJ. 7. Hunter says: Il had
rather take the proposed compromise
than trust to Grant and his soldiers.
State Senator formerly Congre' s.nan)
JOHN Critcher thinks it better than
war"
Ex-Gov. John Letcher cauStically re-
marks: II don't think anything OF it. 1t
is a confession that they are fiat on
their backs and is gentle way to keep
from getting any bruises"
Ex-Gov. Smith says: 81 ain yet to
make up my mind about it"
Ex-Secretary of the Interior a. II.
II. Stuart says: 81 am very favoraby
impressed with it.
Gen. w. II. +. Lee "thinks that the
Northern aud Western democrats hay
ING elected Tilden should seat him"
Secretary OF State Mcdonald says:
'If the Northern democrats are satisfied
with it we must try to be.
General Charles Ii. Ronald thinks it
better never to capitulate after victory
has been wen.a -
Major John W. Daniel, prominent
candidate for Governor, says: The
people elected Tilden. He owes it to
them to demand their rights and they
owe ii to him to sustain him"
Business men most generally approve
of the plan They want resumption
of business, and see no better way of
attending it. The Federal officehold-
ers here are by no means unanimous
OF strong in their expressions of APP
prova! quite the contrary.
