among the names of advertisers and others
mentioned in the paper Jas residents of Wheeling,
We recognize only two whom we know to be still
living here-Peter YarnalI and Daniel Steenrod,
whose names appear along with Noah Zane, Tn.
NcGifin, Daniel Moore and John Fawcett, who
advertise for proposals for "making a Turnpike
Road from the mouth of Wheelins Creek to
point on the National Road at or near Daniel
SteeniOds; and also for the erection of two
br dges over Wheeling Creek" The rest are Ell
tier dead or removed TO other places.
Oftbe travelling facilities then existing, an idea
nay be formed from the following announcement
n the paper.
1.-THE new stages have commenced running
rom Washington City to this place. The entire
istaaee is run through in fine days. There are
our mails VIII oh converge here; every day there
an arrival from one point or the other. 1t is ex-
'ected that a distributing Office will shortly be
established in this place."

stance from Washington City to Wheeling was
IN through in FIVE days, what do some ofour old

Among the Improvements then going on in the

eat the confluence of Wheeling Creek with the
hio, and which is called the "Point," there is
Iecting an elegant and extensive Warehouse of

Whatever became of that Warehouse is more
hanEe know, unless it was converted into the
I'd Point Paper Mil, which stood there as far
ack as our knowledge extends of the spot from
'hch now rises the immense Depot Of the Balti-
nOre and Ohio Railroad.
: The following item was, no doubt when it was
lrst published, very important one.
There are already two warehouses and COM
MISSION stores, which in trading season do re-
