rather stale, but somewhat interesting. The

convention about not supporting papers that

them that their price is two dollars a year, OK
elusive, however, of their moral organization.

CouNrERrElTINc bank notes by photography
seems to be on the increase. During the past
four or five weeks, considerable number of
these countcrfeits have been put into circulation,
and they are produced with comparatively so
little trouble that the process bids fair to be-
come favorite one with counterGeters AL
though photographs invariably have unfin-
ished, blurred appearance, and are rarely, if
ever, of the deep back color which character
ICES the genuine note, still they ave apt to de-
ccive an Impractical eye. Those persons who
are unable to detect them by their appearance,
should always have at hand few pieces Of
cyanide of potassium, which may be purchased
at trifing cost at any druggist, and can be
kept in small wide nouthed bottle. If bill
is suspected, wet slightly any printed portion
of it, and touch it with piece Of cyanide. Ii
it should be photograph, the paper will turn
white, and in fact the surface of the whole note
can be made white by this process. fthe note
is not photographed, this operation has no
effect.

TuEsE DAYS we watch dc locals, tho adver-

THESE DAYS we watch the locals, the adver-
t;sements and the general tone of all our eX-
changes, in order to inform ourselves as to what
is the general status of trade in other towns
and cities We are of the opinion that very few
cities of the country are doing anything like the
healthy, firm-footed trade that Wheeling is. We
mean, of course, in proportion to the size of the
city. There are many towns where more railroad
passengers arrive at, lunch at and pass on, but
very few where they are selling more goods, home
and foreign manufactured, and where money
matters.are easier than in Wheeling. We believe
that our course is triumphanty upward all the
time Our native sources of wealth are too
great to escape the admiration of capitalists
The demand for Wheeling products, many OF
the manufacturers tell us, was never so great
as at present.
Appropos in this connection VIC read in the
Cleveland Herald, coming to hand yesterday, a
communication from one of the citizens there,
headed "WEiat ais Ceveland?" The tone of
the communication leaks out the convictions Of
the writer, that Cleveland is in sort of decline.
He complains that the narrow views Of the
wealthy are letting the town SO to rack.
Like the ass of the fable between to bundles
OF nav, we are as SUI
for want of that decision -hich will permit us to
enjoy rich reward if we will make our advan-
tages available. The iron ore of Lake Superb
or and Canada in close proximity on our docks
with the coal of our own OhiO-chalIenge the
enterprise which might by their use soon stop
The Importation of pig metal from Detroit and
Wyundo,, increase our population, produce
wealth from our resources, and release, from the
inert condition in which so much capital as they
cost is now deposited upon the wings OF sue
cessful competition with other cities.
The Herald writer is of the opinion that too
many commission merchants and too few pro-
duccrs are sapping the vitals of the city, and
also further observes that
The reluctance with which the youthful tai.
ent of our city is directed to mechanical pur-
suits may we'll suggest another cause of this
depression. Where are the mechanics to come
fon, when those of the present generation are
removed from their activity? Echo answers
"Where."

REFORM IN THE METHODIST CHURcH.-An i'm
portant change is discussed among the Metho-
dsts in regard to the government of the church
and the itnerancy of the ministers. The Lay
mans Association of the Cincinnati Conference,
recently in session, resolved that it would con-
duce to the welfare of the whole church so to
change the present system to allow of lay
representation in the general and other confer
enceS. They object to being so exclusively
governed by ministers. They further say that
'the good of their children, the church and the
world, loudly calls for more intimate relation
between pastor and people, which can only be
obtained by more prCtracted stay Of the pas
tor with the people," One of the reasons they
urge against the present system of itinerancy is
that it is u grievous and unnecessary burden
upon the church. They calculate that in dis
placing their 1000 ministers from fields where
they have Just begun to labor with success, and
in removing them to new ones, where six
months will be required to make acquaintances,
an expense is incurred every two years of $780,
900 for removals, and another 100000 in de.
probation of household goods, making an aS-
gregate which exceeds the whole sum cOntrl-
buted by the Methodist Episcopal church to
foreign missions. They also reckon that every
two years Of n thousand years ministerial labor
are lost in the process of removal, and argue
that the system is "cXtravagant." They also
protest against the absorption of the time of
ministers in editing, teaching Latin and mathe-
mates, and directing book concerns, and hold
| that laymen may be found to attend to many
things which now divert many Of their minis
! listers from their proper work

French BULLs-Our Irish brethren no longer

the French, who resemble the ''sons of Erin" in
50 many other particulars, seem resolved also
to show that the habit of making the amusing
kind Of blunder called ''bull" is common to
both nations. We will give some examples.-

the hero thus addresses his son:

In the Ftrori!e the superior of monastery adj
