The demonstration in honor Of the cap
turc Of Richmond and the surrender of Lee
and his army, by the people Of Bellaire, or
Friday evening last, was one of the mos'
successful affairs of the kind it has been oul
pleasure to witnessfor many years. The IL
lumination, which was spontaneous affair
without previous consultation or arrange.
ment, was complete success; almost every
house in the business part Of the town, nc
matter what the political sentiment of the
occupant, was thoroughly Illuminated. La
the early part of the evening the firing of O
swivel, and later the beautiful exhibition Of
fireworks aroused and brought cut the peo
pie of the town aud neighborhood until the
streets were filled with people, of all classes
and conditions, excite aud jubilant over the
news of the Nations triumphs. 1t was
pleasing to see such general manifestation
Of Joy, and it contrasted strangely with the
demonstrations Of similar character about
st. Clairsville, where one party not only re-
fuses to take part in the public demonstr a
tions OF joy, but refuse to put out the Amer.
ican Flag on occasions of Union triumphs. =
After the exhibition of fireworks was over
the people assembled in the open space near
the depot and were addressed bye. l.. Gran
NOR of Wheeling, and @. L. Poorman and
r. H. Cochran, of St. Clairsvile, and from
the enthusiastic cheering of the crowd the
addresses were acceptable to the large crowd
who listened to them. During the evening
r. II. Cochran, Esq, sang an original song
that vas greeted with immense applause,
by the listening throng At a late hour the
crowd slowly and reluctantly separated fol
home, all feeling no doubt that they had
reason to rejoice and feel good.
