INC Yenom 90 the O0PPerheads


During the VallandiRbam meeting In ST.
Clairsville, the Union party avoided every
thing that could give otense 70 tnose W wy
were at the meeting, furnishing them with
water and stable. room for their horses,
and frequently with refreshments for them
selves, and but one SINCE act-the hanging
out of piece Of cFape-OCcurred during
the day, in this place, that Was considered
offensive, and this was Immediately taken
in on the suggestion of leading Union men.
How different from this was the conduct
Of the Vallandigham party on last "edneS-
day. AT daylight their boys and girls
were on the streets whoOping and bowling
for Yallandigham, grooming under the
Union steamers and banners, and trying
to insult every Union man or woman on
the street. When the st. Clairsvllle wagons
one containing q representation OF the
Goddess of Liberty, another with 80 young
ladies representing the States. and a thlro
with boys In it representing the gunooats'
were passing through the town they were
eroaned ut, and called "niggers," and at
one place where number of Venomous
young woman were standing, they bawied
out at the top Of their voices at the Mar
shall: "You have quite a string OF niggsrs
after you"
This conduct was not confined to the
women and children, but during the day,
and the evening previous, the butternut
officers of the law were engaged in efforts
to get up disturbances, by meddling where
they had no business to interfere, and by
fourishIng their pistols and knives in the
faces Of pesceable citizens. Never was
there witnessed in this place such a deter
mined, spparantly premeditated and or
ganized effort to get up disturbance, as
on this occasion. The venom of the cop
perheads was manifest in all their actions,
aud carried so far, that they refused in
some cases to give drink of water to
thirsty women and children. Weare glad
to say, however, that all this insult, all
this impudence, all this bitter manifesto
ton of venom failed to produce the desired
result, for with the exception of two or
three black eyes carried by certain over
oficious individuals, the affair passed of
quietly and orderly.

A CARD.

Who tUiI the People Of the Second COngreS-
SiOnGl Dutrict Select TO Represent Them
AS there is to be convention at Cation
on the LIST day of October to nominate n
candidate for the Second Congressional
District, doubtless there will be many
names presented and quite a number OF
good Union men. We will be called upon
to select one from amongst the many.
We see DR.. Dorsey's card has appeared,
announcing himself a candidate, subject to
the decision of the convention. There are
several good Union, competent and de-
serving men spoken of, but we could not
make a better selection than that of DR..
Dorsey. He was one of the first men in
West Virginia who took the stand against
secession. When the so-cslled great men
trembled and said ave cannot tell you
tUkGt to do" DR.. Dennis b. Dorsey came
out fearlessly and advocated coercion and
bloody Var, If need be, to save the Union and
the General Government. Showing his faith
by his works, he volunteered and served
more than twelve months as Surgeon of
the 3rd Va. Vol. Infantry.
Such was the estimate set upon this
patriot, as a soldier and industrious, skill
full physician, that he was promoted to med
ical purveyor. His health failing him he was
compelled to resign shortly after which he
was elected aud employed to edit paper
In Ohio, where he has since been battling
for the Union. He is citizen of Marion
county and forever devoted to the welfare
and interests of West Virginia. He was a
member of the State Convention, which
met in Wheeling to reorganize the Vir-
GINA government. We appreciate the
prominent part he took, and valuable ser
vices rendered in the restoration of our
State government. 1t is hardly necessary
for US to state las all who are acquainted
with DR.. D.) that his literary sttainments
fit him for any position in the gift of the
people.

respectively psrvades the friends of the
government aud the friends of the rebels
in regard to us. Certatnly,, in the light OF
these evidences, our West Virginia people
can never hesitate as to where and to
whom they are TO look for sustaining
hand in their day Of trial.

A Fact for People 20 Reflect Upon.

AFact for People 90 Reflect Upon.
In General Buffers speech in Chester
county Pa, we notice this striking para
graph:
"lt was a remarkable thing that reverses
TO the National arms were favorable to
the Democratic party. Suppose Gilmore
is driven away from Charleston, Rosecrans
from Chattanooga, or Meade from Virginia,
would that not tend to increase the Demo-
cratic vote at your next election2 Un-
doubtedly. Suppose, on the other hand,
that not only Charleston has fallen, but
that the rebellion should give its last gasp,
can there be any doubt about the election
of the Union ticket in Pennsylvania
The other day at Steubenville, Ohio, at
the time of the "Democratic" meeting
there, Col. McCook, life long Democrat
but now simply patriotic Union man, was
Standing on the balcony of the United
States Hotel talking with Judge Thurman
who was at steubenville along with Pugh
as one of the democratic" speakers. A
large crowd Of people were noticed fOck-
ing over from this side Of the river, and
Judge Thurman remarked the fact to Col.
McCook as evidence of considerable
feeling among the virginiaus in favor OF
i" Democracy" Col. McCook, in reply,
said TO the Judge that there was

Coal Digging as n Striking OccupH-
tfnns

We are getting convinced that there
must be something very peculiar about
coal digging as an occupation. Butchers
used to be excluded from juries in life and
death cases, in England, because It was
thought that their occupation tended to
hardness of heart, feroctty of disposition
and general disregard Of wholesome re-
straint. Their business, although . very
necessary one, was not considered promo
tive of the necessary sympathy between
man and man. The people of this imme-
diate region will begin to indulge sim
liar suspicion in regard to coal digging as
an occupation. For two years past the city
has been. at shor: periods, visited With
coal diggers strike. If we mistake not,
there has been within the period named
some Eve or six advances in the price OF
coal. All the occupations Of the city to-
gether have not done the same amount
of striking. The result is that coal
is now held as high as eight cent per BUSH
ell in this, par excellence, coal blessed re-
giou. alt New Castle is not coal she is
nothing" the English are accustomed to
sey; meaning that if coal cannot be bad
in great plenty in the very heart of the
coal region, then New Castle, having moth
ing else but coal round her, is moth
ing indeed. Aud so we may say of Wheel
ing. II Wheeling is not place of cheap
fuel she has little to boast of. Aud yet
the fact is prOverbial that coal is dearer in
wheeling to-day than at other points less
favorabIy situated. Why is this? We
can't answer. If there is any good reason
why the diggers In this vicinity should be
perpetually on strike we have not heard
it. Ifthere is no good reason the annoy
auce should be sumuarily dispensed with.
The town should not be at the mercy of
extortioners. It is a wrong upon all classes
of citizens to have such state of things
prevailing, but it is an especial wrong aud
hardship on the poor, who are the chief
sufferers.
We find that the experience of the last
year and half are having the effect to
lead people TO inquire what they can do to
prevent a recurrence Of their troubles in
the matter of coal. Several plans and
projects are on foot, among them a plan to
form an association Of citizens, each one
of whom shall agree to take so many hun
bred bushels of coal at a certain price
from some man in the vicinity, who, in his
turn, will sgree to furnish say a hundred
or two hundred thousand bushels at a
fixed reasonable rste. We understand that
correspondence in this matter is now going
on and that the project will be pushed to
successful completion. If this should be
the case We may look for an end of our
coal difficulties.

CoPPERHEAD MISCHIEF. The Ohio
State Journal learns from a Senator of
that State that a petition was circulated
in the Senate Chamber for signatures. in
behalf of six men from Northwestern
Ohio, who had deserted from the armv
i'll Western Virginia, and who had been
arrested, tried, and condemned to be
shot for desertion. These unfortunate
men, as appears from their own state
ment, are quite as much sinned against
as SHINING, for they all aver that they
were enticed to this violation of military
law by the persuasions of Copperheads
in their neighborhood, vino wrote them
urging them to desert, and pledged them
ample protection from arrestl We could
most heartily wish (says the JournaD
that their tempters were to be shot in
stead of these unhappy victims of Cop
perbead treason.
