1t has been estimated that an aver
age of five feet of water falls annual
ly over the whole earth. Surprising
that condensation takes place at an
average height of 5000 feet, remarks
General Strachey, the force of evap-
grafton to supply such rainfall must
equal the lifting of 322,O00,O0O
pounds of water 5000 feet in every
minute, or about 300,000,000 horse
power constantly exerted. OF this
great energy a very small part is
transferred to the waters that run
back through rivers to the sea, and
a still smaller fraction is utilized by
man; the remainder is dissipated in
space.

PURCHASE OF VOTERS.

Whether it be fact or not, that
voters were purchased at the recent
election, the thought in itself is very,
very repulsiye. We presume, that as
man is full of original sin, and that
even at times, good men supposed to
be saints, do wrong, especially as we
frequently see the head lines in daily
papers, Another good man gone
wrong" whereas, it is only another
bad man found out, that in all parties
there are bad citizens, both purchas-
ers and sellers, of what ought to be a
sacred franchise. The idea that q
candidate can buy position, from
scavenger to the halls of Congress,
is as sickening a dose of pollution as
can be presented. We have heard it
charged on the streets and in the
pulpit that such venality occurred at
the recent election. We have heard
runnors that not only men out of the
church, but that men in the
church, cooped and held voters
over night and paid them for
votes. If true, this makes politics
doubly disgraceful. The charge,
however, made by democratic poll
ticians engaged in the same unlawful
traffic, that the majority was obtain
ed by their opponents, through pur-
chase, when they or their henchmen
were engaged in the same business,
carries with it a two fold sting first,
that they were purchasable and sec
ond, that they were so unstable in
their party principles, .as to actually
sell out. That assersion becomes a
stigma upon their party. Money
can be used legitlmately in politics.
Printed arguments, expenses of
speakers, rent OF halls, pay for bands,
hire of conveyances, printing of tick
cts, parades and barbecues, absorb a
large amount of funds. But it should
not 90 farther than the payment of
expenses. If, however, the repre-
sentatives of each party 60 farther,
than it is impossible to enforce puri-
ty in politics even by the law-neith-
err can punish the other, for both are

FIogaing a Methodist Clergyman.

CHARLOTTE, N. c., Nov. 27.-A
Methodist clergyman was pummeled
on Sunday at Concord, in Cabarus
county. He was the Rev. w. l..
Garrison, a member of the North
Carolina Conference, and has charge
of circuit in Cabarus county. About
two months ago Garrison was tried
by his church for conduct unbecom-
ing a minister in reference to a young
lady, and was acquitted. The case
appeared to be one of malicious per-
secution on the part of the young
lady and others Interested Some
people, however, thought he was
guilty, and they determined that Gar
rison should have fogging for his
alleged misconduct.
After he had preached his farewell
sermon to his congregation at Centre
Grove Church, expecting to leave for
the conference, he was told that some
men on the outside wished to see
him. He walked out, and met very
large man, just outside the door, who
introduced himself as Dean Krim
minger, and at once dealt the clergy
man blow with his fist which knock
ed him to the ground almost sense
less. Krimminger then jumped upon
Garrison, and hit him again and again
until the congregation rushed out
and pulled him off. The preacher
was badly bruised.

BEFORE THE COURT OF AP
PE4LS.

An attempt was made on Tuesday
last, by Judge Fleming, through his
lawyers, to have The Court Of APP
peals Of this State, issue writ pro-
hibiting the County Court of Kanaw-
ha county, from counting the votes OF
precinct which gave Golf majority
of IL votes, upon the ground that the
County Court had not sufficient evil
dence that the commissioners of cleo
ton we're sworn. This was demurr-
ed to by General COTS attorney, up
on the ground that the Court had
no Jurisdiction to prevent the Coun-
ty Court from doing any act author
lied by the statute confering upon
them the power to act. This ques-
ton was argued at length, and the
Court adjourned for consultation,
and when it met, Judge Johnson an
nounced the unanimous opinion of
the Court, sustaining the demurrer
and dismissing the petition. Thus the
Supreme Court Of the State, though
composed entirely of democrats, re-
fused to do aught but sustain sound
political and legal principles. These
questions can only be made by bills
of exception and appeal from the
County Court and from that to the
Court of Appeals.

guilty of the same crime. That does
not make it right, for two wrongs
cannot make right, though it may
bar prosecutions. The time will come,
however, when the committees must
purge themselves, when they will
either agree to joint effort in prevent
ing such illigality, or, one by totally
refraining therefrom, prosecute the
other. Such condition of affairs will
be gladly welcomed by all honorable
citizens.

THERE are 1875 students at the W.
Va. University, and everything is
going steadily forward. The profess
sors are intelligent, Christian gentle
men, the courses are complete and
full land the advancement is constant

these things into consideration when
about to send their children away to
school. Patronize home institutions,
especially when they are worthy OF
patronage. The w. Va. University
is a credit to the State.

THERE was time when the Wheel
ing Register was just a bit looked up
to as a respectable and reliable news
paper. But to all intents, the time
has passed. It's violent and dis
graceful course in the State contest,
in giving the State and its people a
bad name abroad, by its reckless and
designing claims, and is condemned
by honest citizens in both parties.
We dislike to upbraid.a brother edi-
tor, but the purity and honesty and
intelligence of the newspaper frater-
nifty should never recognize and up
hold the reckless and designing
course of the Register.

JUNIOR FAIR.-Thursday was big
day for Hagerstown. The Junior
Fire Company, in connection with
their fair, determined to hold a pa
rade also. The city was filled with
strangers, marching firemen and
clashing bands. Among the towns
sending companies and bands were
Merchandising, Waynesboro, Green
castle and Martinsburg. Our fire
department, after accepting the invi-
tation, only turned out twelve men,
but headed by the NJ. G Band, they
got there just the same. Every cour-
tesy was extended to the visitors. If
we ever felt proud of the City Band
we did then. Everywhere along the
line of march its music won the
praise of the observers. The boys
fairly outdid themselves. Prof. Lus.
combs clarionet solo was the talk OF
all those who heard it. We regret
the members did not wear their uni
