Damage by Water.


When we went to press last
week we reported the Guyandotte
river as rising, and predicted the
heaviest flood for years. The
river continued to rise until Sat
urday morning, at which time it
had reached about the same point
as the floods Of the spring of 1889.
Considerable damage was done to
roads and fences along the river,
and the banks of the river at sew
eral points were badly broken.
Thousands Of logs belonging to
the Little Kanawha Lumber Com
pany were taken out and several
RATS which We're tied along the
banks were loosed- from >tLeir
mornings and borne away on the
angry current. A report from
Guyandotte says that the boom of
the Little Kanawha Lumber Com.
pany wasebroken and all of their
Timber, together with a great
many rafts tied along the river,
were carried out into the Ohio
river. We are glad to learn that
all Of the forty one RATS which
Mr.. r. b lawson had at Guyan-
dotte We're saved. The report
from the Tug Fork Of Sandy shows
abontthe same damage as those
reported on the Guyandotte, in
Guiding some damage to the grad
ing of the N. & w. r. r. Consid-
cradle damage was also done to
the railroad along its line on
.Twelve-Pole.

Drowned.

James Guy Muncy, a citizen of
Martin county, Kentucky, was
drowned on Marrowbone last
week. He came UP the creek in
company with Harry Chain, and
being drunk, laid down near the
creek, and it is supposed that he
remained there until the creek,
which was rising very rapidly,
raised over him. Nothing was
known of his death.~pntil the
finding Of his body some days af-
forwards, when the water had
fallen. He was found near the
spot where he was left by Chain.
He was about forty years of age
and leaves a wife and four child

Gorge at Guyandotte.

; The gorge in the Guyandotte
river at the railroad. bridge at
Guyandotte is a serious matter "
the people of this county. No
boats can pass the gorge and 1t is
thought that it will take at least
two months to break it. The
boats of John White are caught
below the gorge. George Godby
has two boats above the gorge and
is having goods hauled from the
wharf boat to his boats. This
will add considerably to the ex-
pense of freighting.

Editor Logan connts Danasr
In reply to our worthy Superin-
tendent's article 81 the 7th inst,
! as a member Of the Board Of
EDUCATION of Logan district, beg
leave to submit the following:
! think that | deplore the sad
state Of crime breeding ignorance
that infests our county as much,
and am as anxious for an advanc
lment Of the cause Of education as
I'any cne. else. ! agree with Mr..
MIR. Barker that to raise the
standard Of education it requires
a unanimous cooperation. The
teacher must have the co-opora-
tioa of the parents and guardians.
We want men and women Of
influence and natural abilities,
who will seek and gain the friend
ship and confidence of the people,
and talk to them about the i'm
portance of educating their child
rem. We want.teachers who are
strictly moral and will, by pre-
Icept and example, so teach and
train the rising generation as to
secure good behavior and manners
and furnish the State with exem-
tpiary citizens. We want no teach
sswhose education is like Al par
'fots, or whose sole strength Of
mind and whose education is a
store of obscure. technicalities !;
libut teachers who possess the fac
fhlties of reason and judgment,
| we'll cultivated, assweIl as memo
ry.
If the Board of Examiners will
strictly comply with the law, and
grant certificates to none ether
than those of "good moral charac-
ter and temperate habits, who
have a good knowledge OF the
cardinal points of the branches of
the curriculum, am in favor
of raising the salary of teachers.
Mr.. Barker has promised the
right kind of an examination.
With the hope that he will sue
coed in giving us good teachers,
future examinations of the stigma
for which past examinations have
been eensured, let us do our duty
as members of the Board of Edu-
cation, and so raise the wages of
teachers as to give the examiners
q sufficient number of good teach
ers.
1t is true that the salaries of
teachers should correspond to
their qualifications and abilities.
1t is plain enough that low wages
and hard examinations will give
us a scarcity of teachers. So long
as teachers wages are so low en-
ergetic teachers will go elsewhere
to practice their profession, or
labandon it for more lucrative
business. So long as teachers are,
10 scarce that they can get as
many schools as they want, wheth-
er they teach them right or wrong
so long will our schools not be
what they should be. A man is
not going to dig we'll 100 feet
when he knows that he can get
no more water than at the depth
of fifty feet. Not many men are
going to work hard for $32 when
he can get the same for less labor
and part play.
Nothing will conduce more to
the advancement Of the cause of
education than competition
among the teachers.
When teachers are so numerous
that they will have TO teach Alright
or give up their profession, then
and not before will our schoolssbe
as effective of good results as they
should be.
These are my opinions, awk-
wardly expressed. | would like
to hear from others.

A bill passed by the recently adjourn
ed Legislature of New York, providing
for the repayment of the amount paid
for substitutes by those who were draft
ed into the service of the United States
during the last years of the war of the
rebellion, but who were too cowardly to
go, has received the approval of Gov
ernor Flower.
There are about 1900 of these patri-
otto citizens still living in New York, and
the average amount. paid by them to es-
cape the performance of their duties is
estimated at $500.
This premium for cowardice will, it is
estimated, involve the expenditure of
about 100000. Meanwhile the loyal
soldiers of that State are compelled to
beg, though the daily Press, for sufficient
money to enable them to fittingly abserve
the ceremonies of Memorial Day.
The action of Gov. Flower in approx
ing this bill is all the more reprehensible
from the fact that, just before the cleo
ton of last November, circular letter
was issued by the state Committee OF
Drafted Men," urging the members OF
that organization to vote for him because
if elected he had promised to approve
it.
1t is not in evidence that any of the
benefciaries of this bill were employed
in the draft riots in New York city when
the opponents of the draft amused them
selves by burning a few colored orphan
asylums and stringing up few score
colored men to convenient lamp posts,
but, in general, it may safely be said that
they were in sympathy with the other
towards who were active participants in
these amusements.
The advocates of economy in the ad-
ministration of the Government are seri-
ously alarmed at the increase in the ex-
penditures for pensions. Some of the
criticism is deserved. A great deal more
| of it is not. Doubtless there are many
thousands whose names are borne upon
the pension rolls VINO are undeservlng.
No doubt it is true that many Of them
were skulkers and towards. But every
one of them was regularly enlisted and
had an honorable discharge.
When the draft riots in New York
seemed to demand the interference of the
State authorities, Gov. HoratiQ Seymour
addressed the rioters as "my friends
and this was not the least of the causes
for his defeat in the Presidential election
of 1863 But it has remained for his sue

pire State in 1892 to approve the payment

HE OBEYED ORDERS.

The story is told in a French news
paper of Pierre Barlat, poor laborer
who lived at Sevres, near Paris, with his
wife, Jeanne, and their three children.
Industrious, frugal, knowing nothing of
the way to the wine shop, Pierre saved
all his spare money, working harder aud
harder, and at last bought the tiny cot
tage in which they lived. 1t was tiny
cottage, indeed-built of stones, with
tiled roof, standing amid shrubs and
covered with clematis. Railways attract
ed the eye of the traveller, on the left, as
he crossed the Sevres bridge.
Pierre and Jeanne worked and scraped
and saved until the little cottage was paid
for, and made a feast when it was all
done to celebrate their ownership. A
landed proprietor, to be sure, does not
mind an occasional expenditure to enter
tain his friends.
All this Pierre and Jeanne had acc ON
plished just before the war of 1870, with
Germany, broke out. The CONSUMPTION
fell upon Pierre, who, moreover, was an
old soldier, and belonged to the reserves.
A gunner he had been, famous for skill
in hitting a mark with shell.
Sevres had fallen into the hands of
the Germans, but the French guns were
pounding away at them from the fort on

CEREMONIES PERFORMED BY SEA
CAPTAINS ILLEGAL.

1.-THE silly ninnies who run off to sea
in tugboats to be married will some day
be brought to grief in way they least
expect was the remark made by a
prominent lawyer yesterday, who was
discussing with friend the legality of
such marriages. "Under the laws of
this State" he added, "such marriages
are not recognized as valid. Unless the
parties have a marriage license in due
form and the cerem ony is performed by
a regular preacher of the gospel or by
some civil magistrate authorized by the
law to solemnize marriages the contract
is no good"
An old sea captain was asked what he
thought about the matter. He replied
that while it had been practice from
time immemorial for captains to assume
the right to marry ouples at sea, he was
fully convinced that no such authority
had ever been conf erred upon sea cap
tains, still less upon navigators of steam
tugs and other cOastwise sailing craft
