THE NORMAL INSTITUTE.
An educational expert who has been at
! tending the Colored Normal Institute, OF
which reports have appeared in this paper
weekly from the pen of Mr.. I. Garland
|, Penn, its accommodating Secretary, says
that he has never seen Normal in which
the teachers displayed greater desire to
work. They seemed deeply interested in
everything by which they expected to
learn anything. and were ready to work at
of Dunsmore's Business College, gave them
a lecture on the practical application OF
arithmetic. They were deeply interested
in it and begged that he would repeat it.
AS he was to leave on the cars the next
morning, he told them he could not unless
they would gather at an unreasonable hour
in the morning to hear him. They readily
agreed to do that, many assembling there
next morning without having had their
breakfasts. During the Institute the
teachers have worked pretty near all day
long and then attended their literary exer :
cises at night. There were about 40 present,
chiefly from the Valley and Piedmont
Virginia. Our white citizens have shown
a great deal of interest in the Institute,
and some evenings the space set apart for
them was crowded. A practical evidence
of the interest felt by them was in the as
sistance volunteered. Lectures on educa-
tional subjects were kindly delivered by
the following gentlemen: Maj. Jed.
Hotchkiss, 2; Prof. J. G. Dunsmore. q;
Prof. Owens, 1; Judge Charles Grattan,
1; H. st. Geo. Tucker, 1; State Superin-
tendent of Public Education DR.. Bucha-
nan, L; Hon. Jacob Yost, 1, and Common
wealth's Attorney Meade F. White, 1. 1t
is very probable that this was the largest
colored Normal held in the State; the
teachers appeared to be of the best social
class, and their capacity for work has al
ready been mentioned.
On Monday night last, Hon. John Lind,
member Of congress from Minnesota, ad-
dressed the Institute. On Wednesday
night it closed with large attendance
both Of white and colored. Resolutions
of thanks to Prof. Robertson, to the con-
duetors of the Normal, to the people of
Staunton, &C., and one asking that the
next Normal be held here, were adopted
The final exercises were very fine. One
would have far to 60 to find the recitation
of 1.-THE Drum by Fannie Edmunds, of
Charlottesville; the solo by Alice Burns,
of Harrisonburg, or the duet by s. G.
Murray and Laura Coleman, of Staunton,

Railroad News,

PROPOSED EXTENSION OF THE VALLEY
RAILwAY-RUMoRED DOUBLE TRACK
ING OF THE C. 8 o. FROM CLIFTON
FORGE.
When the Valley Railroad was built. the
county of Rockbridge subscribed $525, 600.
Of this amount all the bonds were issued
except $105 900, which were to be issued
only when the road extended South to
Salem. The Baltimore & Ohio, for reasons
already public, has been unable to aid in
ing. cut. culvert and masonry work had
been nearly completed from Lexington to
Salem before its aid ceased. The Virginia
Western Railroad now being built-of
which Col. A. S. Buford is President-is
a line intended to connect with line run
ming from Memphis and Nashville to a
point on the Virginia and Tennessee State
line. Col. Buford desires to get to Lex
ington and junction with the Valley
Railroad, and the B. & o. company is
over to him it's franchise from Lexington
to Buchanan and the $105,0O0 of Rock
bridge subscription. Col. Butord appear
ed before the Board of Supervisors of Rock
bridge last week and made the proposition
thatthe county should turn over the remain.
ing bonds to his road upon the completion
of the road through Rockbridge. Col. J. D.
H. Ross of Lexington. addressed the Su-
pervisors to the same effect. The proposed
route of the Virginia Western is to pass
through the mountain near Gala Water on
James River. and come down Buffalo
Greek to Lexington. The Supervisors ap-
pointed Committee to agree on terms
with the Virginia Western, and report
their work to the Board for ratification.
The Chesapeake & Ohio bridge at Gin
cinnati will be completed this fall, and the
latest published rumor is that the C.. u o.
and Richmond & Allegheny will both pass
by sale into the hands Of g. P. Hunting
ton. and the G. & o. will be double tracked
from Clifton Forge to Huntington.

The Opera House not for Political or
other Free Admission Meetings.


There is resolution of the City Council
prohibiting the Manager of the Opera
House, or the Committee on Public Build
ings, to rent it for any political or
other assemblage to which the admission
is free. The only appeal for suspension of
that rule is to the Council itself. On Wed
desday night the Council met TO consider
a petition of 1877 citizens, for the renting
of the Opera House for the Congressional
Convention, next Wednesday. Messrs.
Berkeley, Butts, Crowle, McQuaide, ber-
dorfer, Tams, and Weller were present.
Mr.. Tams opposed granting the petition.
He said every political meeting held there
had defaced the house, and at the Bayard
meeting thirteen seats were broken. At
Richmond, the Mozart Hall could not be
secured for such meetings at any price,
and the proprietress of the Theatre, in OK
planning the damaged condition of its in
terror, said her husband had persisted in
renting it to political meetings. The
Opera House is the property, said Mr..
Tams, of the City of Staunton. and not of
an individual; it cannot be rented to one
and then refused to another, and its gen.
eral use will ruin the only place the people.
more especially the ladies, have, to as
semble in for amusement. The petition,
he said, was signed by one-sixth of the vo-
tiers of the town, and yet he believed that
if they had been informed of the real state
of the case very few of them would have
signed it.,
Mr.. Weller said he favored the city CIV
ing any aid to the Convention at the
Skating Rink in its power, but should OPP
pose its having the Opera House. He
moved that the petition be rejected.
1t was rejected, Mr.. Oberdorfer alone
voting for granting it.

The county of Augusta doesn't owe

mittee went up to the room in which the
County Supervisors were in session, and

F. White, the legal advisor of the Board,
was also present, and gave it as his opin-

the appropriation recommended. The
Board, after some elaboration, declined
to reopen the question which had been
previously settled in the negative.
