each person may become quite tamil
lar with the location of the different
chronological Organs. The second

to Mental Character and Practical
Affairs of Life. BY ID. II. Jacques,

On Wednesday morning Mr. Frank
Woods, of a law firm of Pruntytown,
w. Va, and former professor in this
institution, was present at chapel ex-
ercises and addressed the students
A most excellent feature of Mr..
Woods speech was that he was not
afraid to tell the boys of their faults
as well as to exhort them to greater
diligence. The speaker combined,
the eloquent and pratical in his talk,
and gave us all some most wholesome
advice. Among other things he said
that before we had been six months
out of college, we would find ourselves
in n world filled with meR-not boys
who were earnest, working, enterpris-
ing men, and hence the necessity of
our preparing ourselves to work beside
with, among these men. MIR. Woods
is himself an excellent example of the
true men of whom he spoke. He is a
successful man.

MCGREw Jones, and a man by
the name of Lowe ARE the on
ly Republicans in the Senate. They
are represented to have held a "kor
kus" for the selection of candidates
for the offices belonging to the Sen
ate, at which there was a spirited
time. They voted seventy-nine time:
for President of the Senate, but every
time the ballot was the same-eacl
man voting for himself, and each hat
one vote, so they could not agree, ant
did not present anybody in opposi
ton to Col. johnson.

The first number of the United
Service, a quarterly periodical recent
ly started in Philadelphia, in the in
terest of the Army and Navy of the
United States, made it's appearance
last month. Admiral Porter and
other Army and Navy officers of dis
tinction contribute articles that are
interesting and instructive to the gen.
eral reader as we'll as to those con-
nected with the service. Among
others is an article on the Suns Re
pulsive Force, contributed by Lieut..
R. NJ. G. Brown, of the Navy, now in
command of the U. S. Ship ALARM
which we have heard commended as
a excellent piece of scientific litera-
ture. Lieut.. Brown has recently oc-
cupied the position of Instructor OF
Astronomy in the Naval Academy at
Annapolis. He has evidently given
the subject some thought. He is a
native of Preston county, and has a
large number of friends and relatives
who will take ap interest in his sue
cess as a scientific writer as well as
otherwise.

EVERY one should attend the rail
road meeting at the court house this
Thursday evening and hear Presi-
dent Hays on the subject. 1t looks
now as though we were to have a
railroad sure enough. Those Of our
citizens who have subscribed to its
stock will soon be called upon to pay
the first installment of their subscrip-
tions. This they will do cheerfully,
so far as we have heard them say.
The benefits of the railroad are in
calculable and are apparent to the
intelligent class of our citizens. 1t
will pinch many of them to pay Their
stock, but they all declare themselves
willing to do SO at any time.

WE lately have been dealing some
with Wheeling's wholesale paper man.
Mr.. H. z. Shriver, and find his goods
of the best quality, his prices low and
his promptness not excelled. News
paper men are great fellows for pat
ronizing home institutions and this is
a good opportunity to practice what
they preach. You can get anything
from this house that an establishment
ofthat kind usually carry and to West
Virginia printers, the freight, a con-
siderable item, will certainly be less
than from anywhere else.
