Welcome kanaWha.

The Wheeling Convention has com
plcted the second, and more important
edition Of its work, in the passage o.
an ordinance creating the new State
Of kanawha from those counties oil
Western Virginia which are known tc
oppose the Richmond government
The number of counties named is IS
being, with few exceptions, all west
of the Allegheny mountains and north
Of a line drawn from the head of the
Cumberland range. These have, by
the last census, white population OF
25S, 855, and only G,G34 slaves. The
Convention has wisely RETAINED from
an appearance Of forcing unwilling
communities into the new State, as
also from making al awkward boun.
dairy by running the line along the up
per Potomac SO as to include Harpcr's
Ferry and Alexandria but it is pro-
yidcd that at the election to be held
on Thursday, October oath, upon this
ordinance, any adjoining county not
named therein may, by u vote of its
people, come into the arrangement.
The proposed new State is in good
hands, and in due time K anawha will,
we hope, be welcomed as the 35th to
join the Union. Happily there are too
few slaves to create a disturbing elc-
ment in her politics and cut loose
from tue Richmond dynasty, and
thrown upon her own rich resources,
we predict for Kanawha a career of
prosperity and an honorable position
in the ssterhood of States. 49,,

Grand Lodge Of the /. 0. Of G. T.

The annual session of the Grand
Lodge of the |. o. Of G. r. of the State
Of Iowa, commenced at Odd Fellows
Hall, in Iowa City, On the 2Ist inst
and continued three days, adiourning
at o'clock Friday the Odd inst. II
was the largest meeting of this body
that has ever convened, 1875 delegates
being present, casting some ITO votes
and representing nearly all sections
of the State.
The Order was represented as being
in prosperous and ilourishing condi
ton, Notwithstanding the war excite
ment and the financial depression
Many new Lodges have been organ
lied in the past year, and the member
ship Of the order largely increased
it numbers now about 10000.
The utmost harmony prevailed
throughout the session, the delegates
seeming to vie with each other in theil
zeal for the promotion Of the cause OF
temperance ; and much good is OK,
pcctcd to result from the meeting.
The next session of the Grand
Lodge will be held at Dubuque.

Common School Pic Me.

\ pleasant pic mic was held by the
two schools in St. Charles City, Oh
Tuesday of this week. The occasion
was the close of term Of the higher
department under the charge Of Rev
L. j. McLclland, Miss Helen +. vii
bur, teacher Of the primary school, was
present with her scholars.
In the morning, teachers, scholars
and some friends, met at the school
house and with quite q number OF
banners, marched to u beautiful grove,
where a speakers stand had been
erected and the place fitted up in a
tasty manner. This had been done
by the children alone. They also
gathered the provisions, and are en-
titled to great credit for the general
management of the enterprise. A
large number of citizens were present.
The weather was delightful. \ fine
swing was erected upon the ground
and was well patronizcd by older and
younger scholars before and after the
public exercises.
On motion, A. b. F. IIildrcth was
elected Chairman, and DR.. j. w.
Smith, Secretary. On taking the chair,
Mr. IIildrcth made some remarks,
pertinent to the occasion.
The patriotic hymn America" was
then sung, after which Mr.. Geo. C..
Dean delivered an interesting address
to the children, followed by another
from Mrs. G.. G. Reiniger. Each were
attentively listened to. The historical
and other illusions Of the first speak
cr, Mr.. Dean, and the poetic descrip-
ton of "Ben" and Susan" by Mrs.
Reinigcr will not soon be forgotten.
"The Star Spanglcd Banner was
then sung by the scholars, after which
all repaired to the tables, where an
abundance was provided. The older
friends were quite busy for time in
waiting upon the =" little folks" who
appeared to have as keen q relish for
the catables as they had for anything
else upon the occasion. Youthful
eyes seldom look larger or faces
brighter than while there assembled,
and if man or woman has a genial
spark Of human nature in the soul
such q scene cannot fail TO draw il
out.
The success Of the pic mic, may be
considered a correct index of the pub
lie appreciation Of the present teachers
and scholars. j. w. SMITH, Scc'y.

The Blockade.

Captain Fox, formerly Of Nashna,
\. H., a son-in.law Of the late Hon.
Levi Woodbury., has been appointed
Assistant Secretary OF the Navy, a
recent law Of Congress having created
such an office. Mr.. Fox is now acting
with great energy in rendering the
blockade effective and complete. Be-
sides the hundred vessels chartered in
New York and Philadelphia, quite Il
large number have been employed in
Baltimore The steamers Joseph
Whitney, Adelaide, aud George Pea
body, and five schoonCrs, having been
converted into war vessels, and hav-
ing taken their armament on board,
sailed from Baltimore for the sunny
South.
Their destination at first was For
trcss Monroe, where they will meet
another fleet Of steamers and steam
tugs (thC latter converted into gun
boats,) from New York. The officer
who is to command this fleet will take
with him whatever vessels may be
ready at the Navy Yard in Washing
ton, one of which will be his flagship.
The country may then expect, shortly
thereafter, to hear of blockade prop
crIy enforced, aud of some Southern
pirates summarily disposed of.

Wilson's Creek
BY the admission of the Southern
account the operations of Gen. Sigels

and the whole army surprised in camp
On the whole, what we were at first

New HAMPsHRE.-The Governor and
Council are handling the matter of
fitting out volunteers for the war with
great energy and good discretion
They seem to have risen to the magni-
tude of the exigency in which our
country is placed, and determined
that the Granite State shall have a
good record in the history of the I'M
holy rebellion. They have agreed
upon the following:
To raise Fourth and Fifth Regi-
ment. Lieut. Col. Thos. H. Whipple,
of the First Regiment, has been APP,
pointed Colonel Of the Fourth. The
Battery at Manchester has been ac-
cepted. 1t is to have $50 men 40
horses, and picces-four rined can

pistols, 1000 cavalry sabres, together
with the accoutrements and ammuni-
ton, have been ordered from the U. S.

Great Day in Dubuque.

Inc Governors GrcyS ana Jack
son Guards of Dubuque, composing a
part of the LIST Iowa Regiment who
fought SO galantly in the great bat
lie near Springfield, Mo-, returned to
Dubuque on Friday morning. The cit
liens had made great preparations for
their reception, and the scene is said
to have been more grand and impress
sive than any public occasion ever be-
fore known in that city. The soldiers
were melted to tears by the innumer-
able manifestations of honor and graf
itude, and said they did not deserve
them. The Times says their rctnru
was signalizcd by a complete ovation.
No Roman cOnqucror ever returned
to receive q more earnest and hearty
and proud welcome. We will never
forget the First Iowa, for the glory
they have reflected will grow like the
Revolutionary memories with rcvolv-
ing time, and go down to coming gen.
crations to impress upon them the cost
of liberty and how brave men have
fought to preserve it. Warren and
his heroes at Bunker Hill, repeated in
Lyon and our own boys at Wilson's
Creek ! God bless them all !"
The Daily Union says "Thc pro-
ecssion, numbering over five thou
sand, was one of the largest ever or
gained in Dubuqc The sidewalks
and buildings along the route were
densely crowded by an excited multi
tudc, who continually cheered the vol
untcers as they passed along. SIEVE
Tal beautiful triumphal arches had
been thrown over the street, and in.
Vulnerable flags and banners were
aGoat on which were inscribed mot
toes honoring and welcoming the gal
liant Iowa boys. Their parade was a
perfect, heartfelt, soul-stirring ova-
ton. Arriving at the Public Square,
the volunteers fled between ranks Of
young ladies who crowned each with
a garland and gave TO each q boquct
of flowers, after which they were ad-
dressed by Col. II. \. Wiltsc, o. p.
Shiras, and o. Wullweber. The la
dies had prepared sumptuous cola
ton, and military and fire depart
ments proceeded to test its merits"
Says the Times The main features
Of this breakfast were its excellence
and abundance. The ladies had cx-
hausted the culinary art in its prepar-
alton, and there was sufficient for TWEEN
ty such companies of men. Fair
hands ministered lovingly to their
wants and pressed viands upon their
attention long after they were surfcit-
ed with the dainties. Then the bust
ness of greeting fairly began. Com
panics, columns, briSadcs, divisions
Of fair women charged upon the ranks
Of sun-browncd soldiers and took them
captive. 1t was heartfelt hug and
a heartfelt kiss for all. The brave
most assurcdly deserve the fair, and
In this case they got them"
