Character.

A perfectly balanced character ia
seldom found. Each virtue seems to
have its offsetting foible. Availability
is apt tobe allied with weakness; a Wig
orous, pushing character is often i'm
pulsive, harsh and unjust. A re-
Elective mind is slow to act a prompt
mind is often wrong. So thought
all the qualities that go to make up
a perfect moral nature rarely appear
in one person. 1.-THE physical and intel
lectual do not always evenly balance
There are those possessed of strong
er more than mental nature They
constitute the spasmodic, impulsive
element of society. There are others
whose intellects SO absolutely con-
troll their moral natures that nothing
is admitted that cannot be reasoned
out satisfactorily. There are per-
sons whose strong animals natures
predominant to all else; both mind
and spirit are subservient. To regu-
late all those parts so as to attain
fair degree of equality is the right
step toward what may be called bal
ance in character.

to be made between two roads for

1t was decided to at once proceed to
make a connection at Keyser, where
the two roads run very close togeth-
err. The grounds necessary to be pass
ed over in order to connect at
Cumberland was also examined, and
it is regarded as likely that the con-
nection here will be made near flu
ture. The junction ut Piedmont will
be continued for Western freight.
Senator Davis said to day that his

canal this season. The first consign-
ment Of coal from Elk Garden to the

To W. T. Logan.

Deadi Dead Will Logan is al rest:
chivalrous heart Is now still.
A soul and brain that could rank with
the best
Were swayed and controlled by his will.
His hand ALWAYS open to assist or defend,
He lived as hero, as neighbor and friend.
His cross was so heavy, but he bore as one
Who knew well his duty, and willing
to dare;
His merits were many, and worthily won
And all that were good he was willing to
share,
And the failures he kept he would bear
them alone,
Giving pleasure to comrades, keeping pain
as his own.
The dreams of young manhood were glow
ing with fire,
The Future spread forth with wonder
full girth;
To the rarest of honors his soul did aspire
As he wove for his chap,et many laurels
of earth.
DE started Alright, and his aim was full
high,
s'He had counted the cost but, olas he
must die.
How dark were the clouds and how laden
with fear
As they wrapped his young life in a
mantle OF gloom
How his heart must have quailed as the
moments drew near,
That shrouded his hopes in the shades of
the tomb
How the flame must have scorched in the
crucial test,
What q triumph to feel and to know tit is
best.n
Friend Logan, farewell God grant that
thy so1l
Has now found the rest COR which 1t has
sought,
That thy Spirit is now in the Masters con-
troll
And in Christ thou has found the true
acme of thought.
Sweet peace to thy ashes, sweet buds for
thy grave,
And pardon from Him "who is mighty to
save.'

The McCIune Tragedy.

WINCHESTER, VA, March &c.
Last Friday morning William Me-
Clune wanted his wife TO send his
little grandchildren to the store for
some groceries, but his wife wanted
him to wait until after dinner. Mo
Clune got into terrible passion and
struck his aged wife over the head
with an iron poker, telling her TO the
floor, after which he got razor and
cut her throat from ear to ear. Then
seating himself in q chair, he placed
the muzzle Of his gun TO his head
touched the trigger with his cane
and shot himself through the head
dying instantly. His two little grand
children were the only witnesses Of
the sad butchery. His son, David
Mcclure, a worthy young man, was
at the barn Mt the time the murder
occurred. The affair has created
great sensation in this part of the
country. Mcclure lived about two
miles from where Willard White was
shot and killed. by Algernon Miller
