DULL FOR "LocALs."'-Police business
in the city was at a perfect stand still
Yesterday. Policemen sat around their
warm stoves, and reporters travelled in
vain from point to point. From morn
ing it grew steadily colder each hour,
and, pedestrians glded past mindful of
nothing and with only the wish to reach
shelter from the cold, piercing blasts.
Assaults" and 'tsurstysn were lunhearl
Of, no doubt on account of the weather,
and no one had the hardihood to get up

An INTERESTING AFFAIR.-1n East
Wheeling, near Zane street, there is an
extensive mudhole or pond, which, at
this season of the year, is invariably
filed with water or ice. The moder-
ate weather and rain of Sunday night
caused the ice to break up and the pond
to fill to overlooking with water. A
man who resided near by, yesterday
concluded to dig trench and drain the
water from the vacant lot. To this
procedure a second person who resided
a short distance below, demurred, as
the water would run over his proper:
ty. The first man, not needing
the objections made by his
neighbor, procured pick and shovel
and went vigorously at the work of dig
giag ditch. He had not proceeded far
with the work before his neighbor ap-
peared on the ground with shovel in
hand. For time n lively scene was
presented. As fast as the first in
dividual would throw out mire.
the second would hurl it back
into the aperture. The two men
kept busily at work for near an hour,
one throwing out dirt and the other
throwing it back. A large crowd OF
spectators assembled to witness the
amusing scene, and enjoyed it hugely.
For a time it was feared the two men
would get into a rencounter, but fortu
nately they worked together in perfect
harmony, and when they ceased opera
tions the best ofhumor prevailed among
workmen and bystanders.

The Connecticut correspondent OF the bos-

that state "Substantially, there Is no I'M
portant difference of principle in our organi-
cation the difference is more of personal
character than otherwise" And according
to some of the radical papers of that state
tlecidedzy personal. A Meriden (Ct.) paper
of that stripe, for example, asks no
and what is Andrew johnson? He Is In
brief a sousherner and whiskey-guzzier,
and makes inooherent speeches in which the
nation is disgraced." And the same paper
saws further-"We know that if, in Meriden,
it was supposed that Gen. Hawiey endorsed
drunken Andy johnson, at the coming cleo
ton not one-fourth of the union electors
would 20 to the polls" The Advertiser cor
respondent adds that "other union papers IN
in the state have adopted the same policy" as
the Meridsn paper. We should say that the
difference" pas of slightly personal
character" As for the difference of pr'n
ciple in our organization" as the writer hal
it, how could there be any when the ooJec
