as; Haz!itt fell at Monterey; Steele died
in California; Selden died at New Or
leans; Elting died out West; Couts died
in California; Merchant died the other
day at Carlisle, and McCleland died in
! Delaware
OF all the thirty-nine classmates of
General Grant, who graduated in 1943,
only the following are known to be
alive, viz: Franklin, Qumby, Peck,
Reynolds, Clarke, Anger, Wood, H..
gals, McFerran, Judah, Dent and Pot
ter. There were five graduates in Grants
class whose names do not appear in the
above list, and of these men Edwin
Howe died at Fort Leavenwor,h in
1850; Charler S. Hamilton is supposed
to be dead; Alfrsd St. Armand Crozet
died at the Spencer Housc,in Cincinnati,
April %, 1855, and Charles +. James
died at Sonora, California, June $3.50.
The name of the man who graduated
twenty-six in Grants class the writer
fails to find. Grant stood twenty-one
in his class of thirty and, in look
ing over the list it is interesting to see
how the twenty-frst graduate outstrip-
ped all the rest. Their chances were
equal in the race of life, and it must
have been true talent and not accident
which brought Grant to the front and
gave him command over all his associ-
ates. Coppee says of Grant at the time
be left the Point:
He was plain, straightforward, COM
nonsense youth; quiet, rather of the
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. order, shun-
ming notoriety, quite con.ented while
others were grumbling, taking to his
military duties in a very buSiness-like
manner, not prominent man in the
corps but respected by all and very
popular with his friends. His sobriquet
OF "Uncle Sam" where every good fell
low has a nickname, came from these
very qualities; indeed, he was very
Understandable sort of youth. He
was then and always an excellent horse
man, and his picture rises before me
still of Grant, in an old, torn coat, OBJ
solescent, leather gig tops, loose riding
pautaloons. He exhibited little enthu-
siasm in anything. His best standing
was in mathematical branches and their

HINDRANCEs TO TRADE.

The prosperity ola State, city or
community is greatly dependent upon
the cheapness, safety, regularity and
facility for the shipment of its products;
in fact, the productive capacity of a
community is greatly stimulated or de-
pressed by those circumstances; there
fore it becomes the duty OF every intel
ligent community to provide those
sources upon which their prosperity and
comfort is dependent. The wisdom and
sagacity OF people is judged by these
surroundings-uothing conduces more
to promote these results than wise leg
isla,ion or liberal and honest dealing by
and between individuals and especially
those conducting public enterprises.
Public improvements such as turnpikes,
canals or railroads may be built and
operated so prodigately and at such
AL enormous cost as to necessitate such
ex,ravagant charges of tolls or freight,
as to preclude the possibility of freight
ing many products upon them. This
profigacy is sometimes the result OF a
lack of proper judgment and capacity
upon the part of those having control
of such enterprises; but we apprehend
in most instances it is the, result of sell
fish or sinister motives. What advan-
taye can a railroad be to the develop
ment or prosperity OF community,
which costs double as much for It's con-
s,ruc,ion aud operating, as it, II fairly
and honestly bulk, and operated, ought
10 have cost The people must be taxed
in their freighting 10 pay for these ex
cesses. The preventative to this lmpo-
silion is rigid legislation, and vigilent
supervision, as well as sharp criticism
by these communities which these roads
are professedly built to serve, but which
they actually Cypress.

EBr MURDER AT CHARLEsTowN.-W
learn from the Spirit that most sad
occurrence took place in Charlestown
on Saturday night last, and which had
a fatal termination on Sunday. Shortly
after dark Saturday evening Thomas II.

and directly thereafter an alteration
ensued between the two about some
mending which the latter had done for
the former, during which Mr.. S. was
provoked to strike Bragg with boot
tree. After short time young Bragg
went out the door, accompanying his
departure with threatening remarks.
Gathering up several stones,he returned
to the door and challenged MIR. Spinks
to come out, and Mr.. S. went to the
door, when Bragg threw several stones
at him, one of which struck him in the
forehead, and he fell senseless. lie was
carried into his house near by, and
never entirely recovered consciousness
again, but died on Sunday about II
o'clock. A warrant was issued tor the
arrest Of Bragg on Saturday night, aud
! whilst Constable Cockrill was hunting
for him he came down from the resi-
dence of his parents, accompanied by
his father, and gave himself up to JUS
tice Burnett, who committed him for
the action of the Grand Jury The de-

Resolpsd. That the thanks OF this

A. r Boteler of West Virginia for the
admirable address with which he de-
lighted the visitors to our recent Far.
That his compliance with our urgent
invitation to make the annual address
has revived the pleasant recollections OF
his former addresses on like occasions
in 1852 and 1874, and made the sense OF
our obligations to him still greater
And that this resolution shall be writ

dent and Directors of this Association,
and transmitted to him as an assurance
Of the highest regard in which he Is
held by us and our people"

HAGERsrowN, Jan. l5, 1880.
Hon. A. X. neutrality-suspicious.,
w. Va.-Dear Sir-The Board OF Dl-
rrctors of the Agricultural and Mechan-
ical Association of Washington County
have in my pleasant recollection the ad-
dresses delivered by you at their former
exhibitions. There are yet many who
remember that of 1852 while those OF
1874 and of last year will not soon be
forgotten. They are persuaded that
not little of the success OF the Asso-
citation and much of the advancement IN
Agriculture in this county has resulted
from your generous and thoughtful et-
forts in this behalf.
Now, that they have come to the
twenty fifth annual cxhibitlon-the sil-
YER exhibition of the AssociatiOn-what
more fitting than that you should again
be asked aud that they shall again testi-
fly their appreciation of your kindness
and the valae of your services by invl-
ting you to deliver the address during
the next exhibition occurring October
1924, 1880.
now have the honor, by the order
and in behalf of the Board of Directors,
of extending to you such an invitation.
l am, Sir, very respectfully your ODE
dient servant,
ALBERr SMALL, Cor. Sec'y.

THE SEYMOUR BOOM.

The Washington Post continues to
boom for Seymour. In Saturdays edl-
ton it prints a cut of the distinguished
gentleman, with an elaborate sketch Ut
his life, together with interviews with
Congressman representing nearly all
the States, the majority of whom speak
favorably of his nomination. The fol-
lowing are expressions by the Congress
men from West Virginia:
Senator Davis said: 81 have high
opinion of Seymour, and believe he
could thoroughly harmoaize and unite
the discordant factions in New York.
GLOW is he as compared with other
candidates who have been mentioned
"Wilh him success is an absolute GER
tainty: without him reasonable proba-
bility. While do not love Thurman
or Bayard less, l love Seymour more.
Hon. Ben Wilson, of the First dis
trict said: 81 am in favor of Seymour
aud anybody from Indiana who may be
selected by the Democracy OF that State
who can carry it-either Hendricks
Mcdonald or VOORHEES,"
"Do You think that such ticket
would be generally satisfactorily 10
West Virginia ?"
"Perfec;ly so. Seymour in West Vlr-
ginia to-day is more popular than any
candidate who has been mentioned since
the formation of the State.
"And could carry the State by what
majority?"
Hon. b. F. Martin, of the Second dis
trict, said: "Will you say exactly what
l tell you; no more?"
"Certainly," replied the reporter.
"Then think the man you name will
be a most excellent candidate for the
Presidency. l speak of HOratio sey-
mour"

r@- TuB PEABODY FUND.-Prof. w.
x. Pendleton, State Superintendent of
Free sch9ols, recently had an Interview
with DR.. Sears, the General Agent of
the Peabody Fund, at which DR.. Sears
stated that the policy of the Board of
Trustees is 20 direct their attention and
assistance exclusively to the improve
ment of the teachers OF our public
schools; that they will appropriate moth
ing to assist any academical education,
not even that furnished by our Normal
schools DR.. Sears does not consider
these schools as meeting the require
ments of their policy, and will therefore
contribute no aid to them. Prof Pen
dleton was instructed to expend their
appropriations to West Virginia upon
county district Institutes, on scheme
of distribution to be arranged BY him
according to general plan agreed
upos.
