Wood, OF the Ways and Means Commit
tee, said that he had letters from some Of
the most prominent bankers in the coun-

could easily be tlOated. keifer, OF Ohio,

the rate OF interest should be left TO tie

NEWS, BOTH FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC.

In Utah at the late election 4. q.
Campbell, a Gentle, ran in opposition to
a Mormon named Cannon for the House
of Delegates. The result was that the
Mormon beat the Gentle by near 2O,OOO
votes and now Campbell has petlhoned
the Governor TO grant him the ceriiti-
cate OF election on the ground that Can
nor is living in poiygamy and hence is
not citizen of the United States. The
Governor granted Campbell the Certiii'
cate and the Mormons have become
much enraged over his action.
The ice is moving all along the river,
but the only damage so far reported is
at Cincinnati, where it will amount to
near $l5O,OOO. At that point the
steamer General Lytle was sunk.
The ships Cape Sable and Wild Rose
have gone down at sea with all on board,
Their crews numbered 50 men and it is
probable that they all have been lost.
Two ladies driving in sleigh, near
Norwalk, o., were run into by loco
motive AMI both were instantly killed.
One OF them was thrown entirely over
the cab oi the engine and lit in the arms
of the fireman. The other was thrown
a distance OF 40 feet.

Balmer and John Davis got into dis.

settled the matter by shooting Davis

THE NORMAL SCHOOLS.
Shall They Be SuppOrted?-
Their Advantages Set Forth.
Correspondence Of tic Register,


FAGRMoNT, w. Va, January s.
Prominent among the questions OF
State interest subject to the action oi
the legislature is that OF normal schools.
The opinion very largely prevails thai
the legislative body, soon to convene,
will give this question thorough, intel
ligent investigation; that decided meas
ures will be enacted in regard to then !;
and that they will be either wLo 'ly aban-
doned or literally supported.
Does West Virginia need normal
schools? In this, as in other States,
normal schools sprung up to meet
recognized want-a want OF competent
trained teachers. Does the want still
eXist2
Over $500 teachers are needed for the
Free Schools. Out OF 5l3 Normal grad
uates 3Sl are now teaching. Besides
these there are over 600 teaching who
have pursued only part OF the Normal
course Of study. While these figures
show the Normal Schools have-thelr
disCouragemCn.S considered - accom-
plshed much toward supplying this ac.
knowledged want, DO they not also
show that the want has not been nearly
met? Can they, therefore, be abandoned
without great injury 10 the system OF
public education?
The experience Of all the countries,
both in the old world and the new,
clearly proves that to maintain an etli-
cient system of public instruction with
out uniting with it plan for the cduca-
tiOn Of teachers, is impossible West
Virginia, therefore, in establishing her
Normal schools, is only repeating what
has been found absolutely necessary to
success in the working out Of the educd-
tional system in Germany, Holland,
France, Switzerland, England and other
countries Of Europe, Il we'll rs in other
States of our CnIUn mOf advanced Ia
lucation. Tie report OF the Commits
sionrrs oi Education for 1873. show that
the various states support - Norma
Schools. Pennsylvania has -, New

and West Virginia u, while the large

one each.
Our Normal schools differ somewhat
in organization from similar Institutions
in other States and countries. Whether
the system be- wisely planned or not We
have it and have already spent a con-
siderable sum of money To support it,
Is it not the States best policy to correct
the faults and give it adequate support?
Has not public Indifference and INSULT
cicnt aid chiefly prevented the fulfill.
ment hv them Ui the ends for which
they were established? The discussion
OF this question j. common tD all states
supporting such schools.
Before the various Legislatures it has
been thoroughly argued; its merits well
weighed Thus Ear facts indicate that
the better the system Of Normal schools
il studied and understood the deeper
grows the convection oi their necessity.
Snch discussions have long since Teen
closed in Germany, Austria, Prussia
and some ether European countries.
The existence oi Normal schools is as.
