A TELFGRsN from New Orleans appeared
in Thursdays papers giving information that
Mr.. HORNE, of Meridiaa. Mississippi, was
busy pushing apetirion, for signatures, which
requests the pardon of Mr.. JEFFERSON
DAVIS al the hands o. President CLEVELAND.
The REGISTER doubts if there is any real
foundation for this story, because if there
is such q petition in existence it might
Just as well be torn into shrewds at once and
used for cigar lighters as far as any effect
it will have upon the purpose intended.
That this conclusion is manifest on its
face, it is only necessary to call atten-
ton to the Fourteenth amendment OF
the Constitution, one Of the clauses Of
which is to the effect that any person who
had been an officer OF the United States,
civil or military, and who had participated
in the rebellion should be forever ineligible
for a position of honor and trust under the
Government unless his disabilities should be
removed BY Congress.
This clause in the fundamental law takes
away absolutely the psrdoning power Of the
President in all such cases. Mr.. DAVIS, it
will be remembered, was an officer in the
United States Army at one time, and did
valiant service in the Mexican war. Hence
his political disabilities cannot be removed
except by Congress, and any memorial that
has that object 10 view should be addressed
10 Congress.

The Heart

There is nothing which calls for such
serious consideration now IS the mora
training Of our young women. That train
ing which will make them good helpmates
TO man; for helpmstes, or msr-mstes, the
msiority Of women must eventually be-
come. Their intellectual training is being
pretty thoroughly attended to, but that
training which viii make them orderly,
practical eongruous members OF society, as
mothers, daughters or sisters, receives no
attention at al. A man o learns when
he goes into the world how he must bear
himself towards his fellow men, or else he
meets with prompt and rough punishment.
But the woman is responsible to no one In
her world, viz, her home. If she chooses
to defy, or disregard her husband, there is
absolutely no tribunal before which she can
can be brought unless, indeed, she be guilty
OF some fragrant infracsion o fthe law. The
smaller criminal offences, such IS SANDER,
moderate assault and battery, violation OF
the mail conspiracy, obtaining money IN
der false pretenses and theft I'm her world),
she can commit with IMMUNITY. Gentle
ness of speech, charity, economy fore
rhoughtfulness, and a willingness to defer,
in matters Of Importance, to the bread
winner, are some of the virtues of which
girls should have a good stock on baud to
contribute as their share to the matrimonial

APEAsANT visit from Sheriff HAssLER, Of
Jackson, yesterday, impaired the fact that
while the people Of his county are neither
asking or needing outside help, yet they and
their stock have had a tough time of it the
past winter. Its severity aud duration
swept the county of prOvender, hence the
funds that should have gone, or been re-
served for other purposes, have disappeared
in purchasing feed abroad, so that money
is a scarce in the county as snow in the
tropics. He recounts one instance coming
under his observation where corn brought
Si.lO per bushel for seed in the back part
Of the county. However, with a little more
fine weather like the present, he thinks the
farmers will come out all right.

There is good deal of complaint about
the manner in which mail agents on the
Chesapeake and Ohio and Baltimore and
Ohio railroads handle mail matter. For
example the Times, which leaves for way
points below every morning, is carried to
Huntington and brought back the next day.
We do not know whose fault this is, but we
do know that a stop should be put to such
carelessness il il takes new mail agents to
do it.-Chsrleston Times.

THE PROPOSED SHORT cur To THE


. The Ohio River railroad company are on
the right road in the proposed extension
from Parkersburg to Charleston, and the
property owners in Grant, Rayenswood and
Union districts in Jackson county will make
big mistake if they do not votethe $4,000
long time bonds that the company ask to
help buy the right of way. If the farmers
Of these three districts would appoint
a committee of their own people to
TO visit and talk with the farmers Of Wood,
Peasants, Tyler and Welzel counties, along
the territory which the River road trsyerseS
there is no doubt but the committee would
report fayorably on its return.
IL a recent visit along the line the people
were found unanimous in their commenda-
tions and statements as to the invaluable
benefits received. The price of land has
advanced; all the farm products and garden
stuff are in much greater demand and
readily get to market at better prices,
and traffic is stimulated in endless
ways. The eompany's property
dimiuishes the tax rate, strangers come into
the counties prospecting and buying, leav.
ing money behind them, and altogether the
people would now feel entirely lost without
the road. In fact they cannot do without
il.
This viii be precisely the experience OF
the people Of Jackson county If they be wise
enough to eoncede the aid asked.
Now as to the wisdom of the company in
trying to adopt this new route. The OBJ
jeetiVe point is Charleston FIRST and the
Ohio Central railroad second, but in reach
ing one the other is attained. The only
question is, the best point to strike the Ohio
Central, and chat ought to be no
question st all. By the way Of
Point Pleasant as originally intended
the distance from Wheeling to Charleston
is thirty miles longer than it is from the
proposed point Of divergence on the Ohio
river. This shorter route leaves the river
at the mouth Of Little Mill Greek, ten miles
below Ravenswood. II follows the source
o the creek thirteen miles, cutting across
the borders of Jackson and into Mason
county. Leaving the headSatsrs Of Little
Mil Creek it strikes Ten Nile Creek, and
follows that stream ten miles to q point on
the Ohio Central, about fifty miles from
Charleston.

Serious Riot In PeHBsyIyania,
INV falaUra nh IN tho Diapafch


PITTSBURGH. PA, September Co.
A serious riot occurred at 2 o'clock this
morning at Laughlin's Mill, near Mar
tins Ferry, between party Of fifty
men and the guards placed on duty by
the men employed in the mill. Over
200 shots were exchanged, and num-
Der Of men at work were wounded !;
only two Of them seriously, however.
The attacking party, armed with shot
guns and reyolvers, came up to the mill
from the direction Of Martins Ferry.
They advanced to within thirty PAGES
Of the mill, when the guard called upon
them three times to halt. The assail-
ants paid no attention, but charged,
firing off theirguns and revolvers. The
men in the mill reinforced the guards,
and lively fusilade ensued. The firing
was continued in a desultory manner
for nearly half an hour, when the at
lacking party withdrew. going towards
the river. An examination showed
that among the mill-men William Duff,
Waterman, had received a charge of
sixty shot, and Willard Bailey, a rifle
shot in the thigh. So far as is known
five Of the assailants were wounded,
but their names could not be ascer-
tanned. The leaders Of the attacking
party are known. After the assault
the mill-men rested on their arms, fear
ing another attack, but at noon all was
quiet. The riot was caused by the in
PRODUCTION of non-union men, who have
been boarding and sleeping at the works
since they were employed.

Reported Ly nchinG of Circus.Men

lBy Telegraph 10 the Dlspatch.l
LOUISVILLE, KY, September 90
II is reported here tonight there is
much excitement at Frankfort and Bag
dad, KY, a village near Frankfort,
and there will probably be a lynching
before morning of several attaches of
the Doris circus, whe were arrested
here and taken to Frankfort, charged
with highway robbery. J. B. Weber,
A. V. Schofeld, A. Mites, and J. i.
Turner. of Bagdad, KY, boarded tho
circus train to 90 to Frankfort to see
the show. They paid their fare and
soon afterward, at the points Of Seye-
raj pistols VIII VII were leyelied at
them, were made to turn over
all their valuables-watches, rings;
&C., and a small amount of MONEY.
The robbers then made them Jump from
the train, which was running at a rapid
rate Of speed. All were injured by the
jump. Weber and Schofeld both had
their legs broken, and the former will
not be able to walk again. Mites had
his leg broken and Turner escaped
with painful bruises. The men ar
rested are Richard White, William
Carroll, Paul McWade, George Miller,
John Boyd, and John Martin. 1t is
reported on the street here at 5 o'clock
that all six Of the men have been
hanged, but the rumor has not yet been
confirmed. The prisoners were con-
fined in jail at Frankfort.
