WEDNE8DAY, JATOAEY 11, l.cglNlnture. The to day in adjourned session, and we take the liberty otrfoicing some of the of tho people. This is a session to finish up legislation by the present body, and not to begin it. Every member has his particular constituents in his couuty and his individual ideas, but it takes the constituency of all the counties and the ideas of all the members to form tho Legislature, therefore let that be done which will be for the greatest good of the greatest number. What the people want and what thoy pay for is voles, not speeches; beforo the noxt election tbey can get plonty of better if not longor speeches without either mileago or per diem.

Tho member who prevents the change of a good law will be more highly appreciated by his constituents than the member who introduces fifty bills that don't pass and ought not to pass. Our Stute is young; we want peopip, labor, capital, development; our Legislation must bo as liberal as that of other States or wo will get none of these. When it is necessary to pass an act, put it in plain, unmistakable language, for your constituents are tho plainest kind of people. When different acts conflict, reserve tho best and repeal all that conflicts with it. There will bo somo memhers who will never get through, but when the Legislature is through, corno home, because just one year from now there will be another body who will occupy your place comingmoro recently from the people.

To JiiNiiceti. Wo are requested to call tho attention of Justices to sec. 229 of the Justice's Act, passed 1881: "Every Justice shall, annually, in the month of January, certify to the Clerk of tho County Court of his county a list of all fines imposed bv lum during the proceeding vear, and stating therewith such as have been paid to him; and the Clork of everv County Court shall, upon receiving such certificate of the Justice, certify to tho Auditor the amount of monev appearing thereby to hav(j been paid to tho sheriff; anu if ho fail so to do, be shall be fined not less than twenty nor more than fifty dollars. "He shall also state in such list for which of such fines (if any)' execu tions have not been returned, or returned unsatisfied; and for which (if any) executions havo been returned satisfied and the monoy not paid to hira, with tho name of tho olliccr or person so fuiling to return or pav, and such as havo been paid by him to tho sheriff, and if he fail to do so, lie shall bo fined not less than fifty nor more than ono hundred dollars'" The Now Vear opens with exceedingly bright commercial and business prospects for tho United States. Every branch of industry is unusually prosperous for this season of the year, notwithstandiug tho unfavorable weather of early winter, and the reports from all quarters indicate a very marked and unusual degree of prosperity.

Tho development of the vast resources, agricultural, industrial, commercial and on rapidly, with overy indication of a steady and constant increase. Taxation is lowered and every one is correspondingly happy. One of the very best investments that can be made in this town would be in the shapo of a new Hotel. An investment of nbout 85,000 would put up a house of modern improvements uiul conveniences. Tho noxt two years of busy work and travel that will centre about this place would pay back every dollar of the investment.

Let somo one organizo a plan for a Hotel now that can bo built early in the Spring. i lie list of lost vessels for the year 18SI is of startling length, cvon when the very largo increaso in steam as well as sailing craft is considered. Nearly 200 most of them British property, alone have been wrecked, and all of them but ten or adozen totally dtstroyod. Some have left port and nover been heard from, while tho rest have gono upon the rocks or to pieces under the power of the unusual storms that have pre-1 vailed. Phis is ono of tho sad stories of tho year just gone.

The capital stock of the Greenbrior White Sulphur Springs Company will bo increased 8200,000. Notwithstanding some very defective arrangements which multiplied the expenses very much, tlm enormous i receipts of last season, demonstrated that tho capital stock even with tho increase of 8200,000 ought to pay 35' percent. How is that for an in-1 vestment? I The "Visitor." Mr. Editor: We infer from the remarks of the editor of the Visitor, that be has some knowledge of who the parties were that committed the depredations in Christmu eve, by pulling down signs, 4c. Now, if Mr.

Van Matre is a good citizen and to see (he property of the town protected, and if either he or "Snap Jacker" will make oath before the will injure them that the guilty parties will be punished, (whether the Mayor's ran is one of the party or not), as he did "Snap Jacker" when he was before him.

onr Regular Washington, D. Jan. 7,1882. The holidays are over. The national bunting has again been run up at both ends of the Capitol, announcing the presence of the House and Sonate in Congress assembled.

Postmaster General James has formally resigned, and the new Postmaster Gjeneral, duly installed at the head of the largest postal department on the planet. The most noted, and, owing to its cause and its the most repulsivo trial in modern judicial history is rapidly ncaring its close. Tho social world at the Capitol is abroad on the boulevard, or at home in the drawing room, alert, irrepressablo, diabolically gay and aesthetically nicked. Until within the last five days, we have had the balmy winter climate of South Carolina; but the new year brings a temperature and snow fall that has set the oldest inhabitant talking. The Ilouso met on Thursday and, after a brief session, adjourned till Monday, but the session, brief as it was, was sufficiently long for Mr.

Orth, of Indiana, to express his protest and his indignation at being ignored in the formation of important committees. This is the beginning, the forty-seventh Congress will not hear the end of the very general dissatisfaction with Speaker Keifer's committee mechanism. For the last ten or fifteen years, there has been a feeling among legislators that the system of naming the porsonel of committees by the Speaker coucentrated too much power in the hands of one man. Solong, however, as the Speaker followed the rule of recognizing, as far as possible, the leaders of the House, and placing them on important committees, there had been no emphatic but now comes Speaker Iveifer, ignoring all precedents, and nearly all the recognized leaders, causing great dissatisfaction in both rank and filor and in both parties. Mr.

Springer, of Illinois, will, in a few days, offer a resolution, setting forth that unknown aud inexperienced men have been assigned to important committees, whilo older members, and those familiar with legislation and the rules of the House, have not only been gagged by being placed on unimportant committees, but that they have been removed from importan' committees where they have long served, and that their efficiency as legislators has been conspicuously and wantonly impaired; that tho action of the Speaker is not so much a personal aflront as it is a wrong to! their constituents and to tho country, whose interests demand the best ability and most mature experience,) or, in other that tools shall! not bo given to bunglers, but to those who can use them. The feeling of dissatisfaction among members is, by no means, confined to Mr. Orth, or to Democrats. It is shared by the friends of Mr. Orlh and of Mr.

Kasson, and is prevalent among the Western, the Eastern, the tho New England, and the New York delegations. It needs no prophet to predict that, with this intense feeling existing, tho fortyseventh Congress will not bo a dove cote, or the Speaker's chair a bed of roses- C. A. S. Tho Philadelphia Tims has looked over the ground in tho Keystone State and reached tho conclusion, "If the Stalwart President can form a coalition with the worst Democratic elements in New York, the Wolfe and anti Stalwart Republicans will feel justified in a coalition of the best Democratic elements in Pennsylvania, and who will care for Cameron then?" If the Independents will light it on this lino for a year or two they will bo able to accomplish something; othcrwiso they will continue to butt their head against a stone wall without advantage to themselves or injury to the enemy they are sounxious to embarrass.

The exodus of the negroes from the South still continues, and it is said that plantation after plantation is left without a laborer. In South Carolina this movement threatens to leave tho planters without any hplp to cultivate their lands, as white emigrants cannot be induced tocome thoro and work for tho same wages as tho colored people, nor will they bo satisfied with tho same rations and treatment. Holiday Editor JUgiMer: Another twelve months Work done, Another Sew Year has began. In entering upon the new year we should do with new resolves, and eneavor to improve the future more than we have the past. It is said there is always a calm after a storm, and a truthful saying it is.

Some weeks before Christmas all were looking forward to the holidays with anticipations of pleasure, and no one more so than the writer of this, who was anxious for a little rest from school duties. My enjoyment commenced on Wednesday, December 21st, 1881, at the residence of Mrs. J. D. Hope, in Clendinen District, where alarge numberof invited guests assembled to witness the mar riage ceremony between Miss hliiubcth M.

Hope, and Mr. P. F. Spencer, Rev. S.

Cummings, of your city, tied the knot and made Perry (for by that name he is best known) to the discomfort of some of the beaux, the possessor of his charming brido whom he so roguishly deprived them jfc the writer of this entered his protest but jt was of no avail, he? hewevep got a sumptuous repast which waB some consolation. Your correspondent, like Peter Pinder of old, gathered on Friday before Christmas his family of school children around him, talked to them and gave each one an affectionate remembrance and wished them a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. The schools in Clendinen were all closed for the holidays, but are now in successful operation now that the storm of enjoyment is over, and every thing is moving along calmly and quietly. During the festive season Mr. Geo.

Henry, and Mr. Josiah Arrington, each gave pleasant entertainments at their hom*os which were enjoyed by all who were present, and who tripped the light fantastic to their hearts content. The matrimonial market, so madam rumor has it, is looking up and the most popular sentimental piece now sung in this section of countryis "Ever of thee fondly I'm The weather has been very disagreeable for some time past, and the roads aro in a fearful condition, and in many places almost impassible, they are a disgrace to the county and something should be done to improvo them. i On The Visa. Ruilroud We have sorno more good railroad news for our readers this week, which will prove especially interesting to parties living on this side of the river.

Mr. M. A. Miller, of the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway Company, has been in town sinco Monday, in the of the proposed branch from Scary to Gallipolis. His first object was to securo from the corporal ion authorities the right to construct the line through town.

Council held a meeting Monday night, and the matter was discussed at some length, but action was postponed until Tuesday evening. In the meantime an ordinance giving twenty feet off of the North side of Court street had been prepared, by the terms of which the company was required to build and forever maintain a depot within one-fourth of a mile from the middlo of Main street, under penalty of ton thousand dollars forfeiture. Mr. Miller objected to tho forfeiture clause, and the vote resulted in a tie, with ono member of tho Council absent. The whole matter was then adjourned till Wednesday afternoon, when, at a full meeting, the objectionable clause was stricken out and the ordinance passed.

It is not a part of Mr. Miller's business to locate depots, but he thinks the company will place it just where the county roads turns up onto the bench below town, which will be within the prescribed limit. General Bowyer has already donated the land. Mr. Miller has taken op lions on several of the lots abutting on Court street on the North side, which the company will want in case1 that route is selected.

There options were given for only thirty days, so that whatever is done will be quickly done. He goes to Williamsburg to-morrow, on other business for the company, but will return here week after next, and will then see all the property holders along the line between Scary bridge and the mouth of the river. He assures us that it is his understanding and be lief that grading will commence just as soon as the weather will permit; that the company have not heretofore been ablo to spare the hands from the Eastern extension, which has proven a much more difficult and tedious undertaking than was at first anticipated, owing to the marshy character of much of the territory through which they had to We feel warranted In expressing the opinion that within the next few months the peaceful slumbers of our sober citizens will be disturbed by the snort of the iron horso as he plunges through our county, frightening away tho commercial owls and bats, and dragging after him a long train of prosperity and Democrat. Thedebtof New York city is now $99,000,000, and there is a proposition pending to increase it by $15,000,000 by the construction of a new aqueduct. Queon Victora will at no distant day have a Land League in England to wrestlo with.

Miller, of Wheeling, and S. A. Miller of Charleston, are the incorporators of the "Kanawha and Chesapeake Uailipad Company," capital, $3,000, 000. The road is to be commenced at or near Cannelton, and proceed by the most practicable route to a point at or near the mouth of the South Hranchyof the Potomac, in Hampshire I County, with the right to build a branch line to the Potomac River, in Mineral County. A charter has been secured.

Ex-Senator is said io have in tho same road; Senator Davis, of West Virginia, Elkins the same, Biyard a little, Windom considerable, and Mr. Blaine probably $200, It runs'from the Baltimore and (Biio to the source of the Potomac, and thence south, leading to a county rich in timber and Press. Although the assasin Guiteau has tever made much money that we tver heard of, he has certainly man iged to have a large fortune spent him.

To sum up the cost caused by the crank to the Governuent from the moment he shot Garfield to the close of tho trial now tearing its end, would perhaps foot not far short of a million of dollirs. It is about time this man Guiteau was sent to his reward. The descendants of Cornplanter, Iho noted Indian chief, are now claiming three hundred-acres of land which Oil City is now situated They claim that the land was held ky Cornplanter in trust, and could not legally pass the title to strangers. Lady Land Leaguers in Ireland are to bo arrested and for their reception, a special jail is being piovidcd. This means that, according to all expectations, there will be.

for some time to come, ladies in jail in Ireland for political oflonses. The total number of business failures for the entire year 1SSI through out the United States is stated by the mercantile agency of R. G. Dunn to be 5,582, involving liabili tiei of slightly over $81,000,000. During the past year 599 have mot with violent deaths at the hands of their fellow men, 242 per sons committed suicide, 90 persons have been hanged, and 50 have been lynched.

Salt Lake City imposes an annual license of 8800 on each saloon, and the result is thero are but few, and no "corner grocories." At last Texas recognizes that murder is a crime, and two Mexicans liavo been sentenced to be hanged for that heretofore trivial offence. A thief recently stole an overcoat from a Cincinnati doctor, and along with it, got a first-class case of smallpox.

The N. Y. Tribune charges tho President with robbing the political graveyaad in toe formation of his Cabinet, which is unkind, to say the least. The amount asked for to run the government of New York city is 831.390.030.14, and the amount grantted is 829.412.831.50.
