A FEMALE SEMINARY.

1t is predicted, on what seems to be good
authority, that Charlestown is to have Te-
malo Seminary. Some years ago John
Stephenson, public. spirited citizen, donated
the grounds in the east part of town for
seminary and cemetery, and now occupied in
part for cemetery. He would doubtless
have put the seminary in motion, but for the
war having destroyed the value of the funds
But, if Mr.. Stephenson had done all, there
would remain nothing for others to do The
cemetery is, in all probability, being managed
to suit the donors wishes, but the front part,
given Tor seminary, is being farmed.
Could not stock be subscribed to carry out
the purpose of the bequest, by little exsr-
ton on the part OF our citizens? There is
no institution such as it ought to be, in this
lower Valley of Virginia, and our citizens are
sending their daughters in every direction to
be educated, at an expense that would 90 far
toward erecting buildings on the seminary
lot; thus, not only saving, to be spent at
home, the money which annually goes to en-
rich other places of learning; besides, if we
had first, class seminary of learning here it
would bring funds to be spent among our mer>
chants, mechanics and farmers, besides intre>
duce in our midst additional class of educa-
tionalists with refinement and morality, much
to be desired. 1twould also make many poor
people at home to give their daughters fin.
ished education, which they cannot now do,
as the expense of sending and maintaining a
girl away from home is beyond the ability of
ordinary livsrs; hence many of the brightest
minds remain untutored because of the ex-
pense of sending from home. 100000 will
be sufficient to erect the necessary buildings
for start, and now, as Mr.. Campbell is COM
ing to start Female School, it will be good
time to agitate the enterprise.
Stock might BIO put into 4 per cont. bonds,
at long maturity, which ought to comm and
purchasers. if provision should be made for
the annual interest, which would be realized
from rents, at the hands of the conductor of
the seminary.
Some Mary Baldwin doubtless could be
found who would make it a SUCCESS The
hsalthiulness of this rich and lovely Jefer>
son county ought to be sufficient in itself to
secure all the stock needed for seminary,
with all the accessibility of railroad approach
from NIL directions, cheap living and high
moral tone of its citizens.
The above view is taken for the purpose
of drawing out other writers; with more abil>
ity and experience, who are earnestly solic-
tied to exercise their pens in this cause and
when cultured ladies in after years acknowl>
edge the Jefferson Seminary as their alma
Mater they will not regret having linked their
pens in this cause. PRo SEMINARY.

A Washington dispatch to the Baltimore
Sun, dated May 9th, says: 1.-THE Harper's
Ferry property will be leased in few DAYS
if tho parties who have bid for it comply
with the requirements of the law. The Bal.
tinOre k-Ohio Railroad Company seems to
have declined TO take tho property on the
terms offered By the government"
a Washington dispatch to the Wheeling
Register, May 18th, says: "a delegation of
citizens from HarPer's Ferry is expected
here in few days for the purpose of waiting
upon the Secretary of the Treasury with the
relation to the sale of the Government props
erty at that place. Property holders of Har-
Per's Ferry are very anxious to have the
Government dispose of its property there to
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company,
or to some othsr corporation or parties so
that it may be disposed, thereby benefting
the people Of that vicinity, and enhancing
the value of property in the immediate vi
entity of the Government tract"
Col. Charles T. o Terrell, of Rookinr CHAM,
we are pleased to observe, seems to be the
coming man for Congress in the old "Tenth
Legion" district of the Valley of Virginia.
a writer in the Stanton Vindicator says:
"Col. O'Ferrell has rendered great service
to the Democratic party. He made a State
reputation in the canvass last fall He il
fine reasOuer, an eloquent speaker. most eff
fective man before the people. he is full of
energy, dash and magnetism, aud his De-
nocracy is of the true and genuine stamp; it
has no dross of any sort in it. With the
standard of the party in his hands, his stir
ring voice ringing like bugIe, his clear and
earnest arguments striking directly into the
minds of the people, and his impassoned ol>
oquence warming tho popular heart, O'Fer-
rell could gather around him following
worthy of the old days of tho renowned De-
mocracy of the Tenth Legion"
With Col. o'Forr0ll from tho Rockingham
and Holmes Conrad from the Winchester
district in Virginia, and Daniel B. Lucas
from the Second West Virginia district, the
great Valley of Virginia would have in the
lower house of Congress q trio of young
Democratic Representatives of which any
State might justly DO proud.

aged as political speculation may be said to
have collapsed. The elements of which the
coalition was composed were too incongruous
to adhere together long after the spoils had
been distributed. Malone and RiddIeberyer
have succeeded in getting seats in the Sem
ate, some of their principal lieutenants have
been paid off with Federal and State patron
age, and Cameron is Governor The honest
rank and file, who were inveisled into the
business, became disguised long ago and
sufficient number of them revolted in tho
State Senate to prevent the onsummation of
a scheme to gerrymander the State into con-
gressional districts for the benefit of certain
Readjuster politicians. Little doubt is now
ep><rtained that the people of Virginia will
rspudiate the repudiator and his crew at the
