For CONGRESS.

The fame of the average Congressman is
of such short lived duration that it seems
hardly worth while now to pay $4,000 for
an election. Who wants the nomination
in our district? for there is nothing equal

all sores, wounds, cuts and skin diseases.

1t is said the difficulties in the way o.
long distance telephony have been over
come by Prof. Bell. and promises are held
out that speaking communication between
New York and London or San Francisco
will soon be established. What the diff,
culties were, il anything aside from wires
and instruments, we do not know. Ac.
counts appear daily of connections being
made between distant cities by means Of
the telegraph wires, and conversation be.
tween persons hundred or more miles
apart. Only lastSunday Albany and Sy1a.
cuse were thus united. Syracuse and
Rochester, Rochester and Buffalo and
Syracuse and Buffalo have conyersed by
telephone. 1.-THE statement recently made
by q Bethlehem, Pa, paper was correct,
long distance telephony has already been
accomplished. A man in far Nebraska
conversed with his friends in MauCh
Chunk, telegraph wires being put in con-
nectiOn for the purpose, Wire devoted to
telephone uses is, therefore, all that is
necessary to bring the human race into a
family circle. The telephone is in its in.
fancy, but the consolidated Bell.Edison
company will push its growth. The capt.
tai OF the company is to be increased from
less than a million to ss,OOOO0O, and the
expansion oi.the system will be as rapid as
facilities can be supplied.

The Report of the Regents of the
w. Va. University.

The biennial report of the Board of
Regents of the West Virginia Univers-
ity for the year 1878 is before us.
This is the first report made by the
Regents to the Governor since the
election of President Thompson. At
the time of his election fnrtv-t two stu
dents were in actual attendance, and
these were from counties Immediately
contiguous to Monongalia. The
school was localized in every sense of
the term, and had arrayed against it
considerable partisan and sectarian
feeling in every portion of the State
When the President Of the University
made his report to the Board in June,
1878, 118 students reported as having
been in attendance during that year,
and larger number of counties had
been represented than for years before
We understand that during the pres
ent year there have been students
from twenty-eight counties of the
State, and that a decided increase is
expected at the beginning of the
spring term, March 5th. The Re-
gents speak in high terms of the work
accomplished by President Thomp-
son since his induction into office,
and the whole split of the report
prognosticates favorably for the flu
ture.
The report contains various recon-
mendations in regard to the enlarge
ment of the facilities of the Universe
ty, the names of all the members of
the Faculty, the names of the distin-
guished lecturers Of the past year, the
names of the graduates for the years
1877 and 1878, the annual reports of
the President of the University, of
the Executive Committee, and of the
Treasurer. These various reports
contain full and exact information
as to the condition and working of the
University, indicate precisely what it
needs to increase and enlarge it's in
fuence. The report will no doubt be
carefully examined by all members
ofthe Legislature, as well as read with
interest by the citizens Of the entire
State.
We desire again most heartily to
The new dominion. [volume] (Morgantown, W. Va.) 1876-1904, 1879-02-01
LEGISLATURE.

So far but little business Of inter
est to Monongalians has been trans
acted by the Legislature. A number
Of plans have been proposed and dis
cussed with view of breaking up the
school book monopoly, but no decided
action has been taken yet. The
Joint Committee on the Constitution
al Provisions in regard to the Judici-
airy, was to make its report to the
two Houses on Tuesday. Among
other changes they recommended
that the county court be done away
with; that there be three supreme
Judges instead of four; that there be
fifteen judicial districts in the State,
each having one judge, excepting the
first, which will have two: that the
fiscal business of each county be en-
trusted to a board of three commits
sioners, and that men holding the
position of Justices of the Peace may
not be ineligible to election as COM
missioners."
We will keep our readers advised
of the most important acts.
