WHERE TO EDUCATE YouRDAuGH
TERS.-We do not need TO urge on
our reader that most important
duty, to educate their daughters
We do feel like urging them, how
ever to select a school Of establish
ed and wide reputation, which hal
the facilities for imparting a broaG
and thorough education. The diff
ference in cost is but little; the DIFF
ference to the pupil can hardly be
estimated. We need hardly add
that, If you desire your daughters
to study music, eloCulion, or art
they can be learned with the best
results and TO the best advantage
in large cities only. The Pitts
burg Female College is just such q
school as you want. 1t employs
thirty teachers, and offers rare I'D
vantages in all departments Of Q
solid and ornamental education
and at lower rates than any equaI
city school on the continent. sent
to Rev. l. c. fershing, D. D., Pitts

Teachers Institute we find the fol-
lowing relating to Capt. Oliver
Phelps, one of Mason s best teachers
and who conducted the Institute in
Lincoln. As evidence Of the up.
probation in which he is held al
home it is only necessary to say
that he has just beeh engaged fol
the fourth year as Principal of The
Mason City Schools.

Phelps thoroughness us an in
structor, and his uniform court,
esy and efficiency while acting as
Conductor of this Institute do here

The Engineer corps is surveying
what is known as the Ten Mile
route for the Ohio River Railroad.
It will be a shame to have the road
leave the river as proposed. II the
projectors of the Ohio River Road
leave the River at School House
Run as is now proposed, every bus
iuess man can but look upon it as
penny wise and pound foolish, in
thus giving the go by to what is
equal to a city Of fifty thousand in.
habitants. Railroad men usually
aim to reach cities with their prop
erty in order to build up business,
no matter at what cost, but in this
instance it is proposed to pass ar.
ound a population and business
equal 10 FIVE times that of any
place on the road, and. more than
equal to that of Wheeling, proper.
We cannot believe that when all
of the facts are presented that this
road will cut of the revenue that
must necessarily be derived by fol,
lowing the river, yet the indica,
lions now are favorable for the Ten
Mile route.

WASHINGTON, February 6.-After the
transaction of large and varied miscel-
laneous business, the House went INTO
committee of the whole on the river
and harbor bill.
The amendment appropriating $15,-
100000 for the improvement of Sandy
Hook channel, mouth of New York
harbor, was the occasion for long
wrangle of a personal nature between
Hlscock and King, and was finally re-
jected.
Another fierce dispute arose when the
amendment giving Memphis $4,000
was reached.
Young intimated that Willis was re-
sponsible for the omission of Memphis
from the bill. The word "falsehoodi
was freely used by both gentlemen
The confusion became so great that the
Chairman directed the Sergeant-at-
arms to see that the members were
seated
Young subsequently withdrew his
amendment, though the angry feelings

Whisky, Cards and Pistols.

EsTELLEvILLE, Va. January c.
Wayne Powers and George Biboon were
hanged here to-day tor the murder of
A. NJ. Gibson, in April last. Both ad-
dressed the crowd, acknowledging the
crime and generating Jonah Powers,
convicted of the same offense. The
parting between Wayne Powers and his
brother Jonah reprieved by the gov
ernor, was very affecting. Wayne
Powers, in a pamphlet, confessed that
he attempted to murder his own
brother, and many Others. He ascribed
all his woes to whisky, cards and pis-
tolls. One thousand persons we're
present. The execution was private, but
stand outside had been erected, from
which the condemned spoke. They de-
body of the victim, which was horrible
to listen to. The killing was done for
$12 and suit of clothes.
