. .. + %
The following article is copied from the
Fairmont True Virsiniun, and is worthy of
an attentive perusal. We arc gra.ifed 10
perceive awaking up along the line Of the
proposed Railroad.
II will be seen that there is want Of con-
currence in The dato Of the proposed Conven-
ton a, Fairmont. This should be promptly
attended to.
We invite attention 10 the following
communication on The subject OF the pro-
posed railroad from the Pennsylvania line
to Ravenswood. DISCRIMINATION was
written by one ofthe oldesta and most prom
inent men in our county, and whose mind
is Of an eminently practical turn. He ev-
identity understands his subject.
The suggestions in this article will no
doubt be acted upon BY our people,
There are many reasons why even those
ofus who live on the line of,he Baltimore
road should desire 10 have another railroad.
Al present, however, we do not propose
TO mention any of them. We only wish
now to ask the readers attention to the
communication in question, which Contains
much food for reflection:
To tie Editor efAe True Kirginia:
DEAR Sin: have learned that while we
are quiet and manilesting but little interest
in behalfofthe contemplated railroad from
the Pennsylvania line along the valley OF
the Monongaliela river 10, or near the
mouth of the Great Kanawha on the Ohio
river, others not more interested are active
and using the usual means to attract pub
lie attention and public interest in lis be-
half. In Mason and Jackson counties
they are about holding public meetings
preparatory to the assembling Of a general
convention at your town (Fairmontl or
the fifteenth day Of June next, at which
time and place il is expected certainly that
the seven or eight counties through which
said road is proposed TO be made will be
fullyrepresented. May we mol also hope
that the city of Philadelphia will have
time between this and The fifteenth ofJune

The River has been up finely during the
past week. A large number of Rats have
passed down, and the steamer Jesse Lazear
is making regular trips:
The MonOngahela Belle arrived from Pitts
burg on Sunday evening, and left on Monday
for Wheeling, with the MOrgantOUn Brass
Band on board, TO bring up the Wire for our
Suspension Bridge.
The Wheeling Gazette duly chronicles her
arrival on Wednesday, and the object Of the
trip. The Wire is obtained at the /" Eagle
Mills,n of E. C. Dewey s. Co., and i, would
be 10 us no matter Of surprise if the ore from
which it was made, was passed thro' Clinton
Furnace, in this county. 1t is Virginia

Barges was launched at the Boat Yard of

PRONUNCIATION Of Gov, Seymour's veto
of the prohibitory liquor law, and the
following resolutions, with several 9TH
ers. were adopted, viz:
Whereas, Horatio Seymour, Govern,
or ofthis State, has, by an unjustifable
exercise of his constitutional power in
opposition to the wishes of q large ma,
iority of voters Of this State, vetoed the
"Act for the suppression of lntemper-
ance." ~
Resolved, That in so doing the Gov
ernor has arrayed himselfin direct antag-
onism to all the dearest interests OF hu.
manity;that homes made desolate, wives
made widows, children made orphans.
and all the evils flowing from the prose-
cution of the rum traffic, have received q
fresh impetus and encouragement by
this mark Of Executive favor.
Resolved, That with true hearts and
strong hands, we pledge ourselves in
view of the fate ofthe present law, to do
