Not unfrequently catarrh proves fatal,
either by debiltatlng the system and wear
ing out the patient, or by travelling down
ward and producing throat affections,
bronchitis, and, finally, CONSUMPTION. Ii
may be safely asserted that, after heredita-
ry predisposition, catarrh Is the most
frequent and important cause of this fatal
complaint.
The Daily empire. (Dayton, Ohio) 1865-1867, 1866-10-01

The symptoms of catarrh vary consider
ably in different individuals, the degree of
their severity depending upon constitution
al idiosyncrasies and various external in
fiuences. With some the complaint con-
tinues for number of years In mild form,
and without causing any of the injurious
results above described, while with others
space of time, and cases apparently most
harmless may, through imprudent expo
sure, additional cold, or unfaYorable
changes Of the weather, suddenly exhibit
all the violence and malignity which char
acteTizc the severest ones.

RE OPENING OF THE SCHOOLS. The
long and joyous summer vacation having
ended, study and daily journeys to
school began yesterday. The Public
and many private schools commenced
the scholastic year. The educational
institutions of Wheeling have always
maintained as creditable reputation as
as any in the country, and are the
pride and boast of our citizens. Edu-
cation is progressive, and its Importance
is acknowledged to NEST gratifying ex.
tent among our people. Higher and
higher should be the motto of all engag
ed in it, and underithat influence study
and learning will be stimulated and our
institutions maintained.
The attendance yesterday was very
good, and showed comparative increase
over last year. Parents and guardians
should endeavor to have their children at
school on the first day Of the term or as
near it as possible. Nothing so destroys
the usefulness of the schools as to have
pupils come struggling in one at time
during the term or missing a day or two
each week, after they have started. Let
these hindrauces be avoided, if possible

CITY AND STATE ITEMS.

TIE WHISKY QUEsTIoN.-We observe
that our Black Republican Union friends
talk Justify and rejoice very much over
the alleged fact that they were able to
keep sober day or two while attending
the Parkersburg Convention; and some
say the liquor sellers of that place sold but
little whisky to the members thereof
We have heard an incident which throws
some light on the subject. A delegate,
when about leaving this city, struck
lamp post, on the wharf, with his satch-
ell, and with triumphant gesture,
inquired Of another delegate, if he could
do likewise. The latter declined trying
the experiment, as he did not wish to
scent his Sunday -go-to-meeting clothes.
From this it is evident that our loyal"
friends adopted the cheap plan, and took
their whisky with them. What trade
was lost by the Parkersburg saloon
keepers was made up by that done by
those in the same business in this city.
Since this singular report has been
current, our people have been at loss
to know how to account for the alleged
sobriety of the delegates, and their
friends think if it be true it wonld be to
the interest of the temperance cause and
the good of the men If they had remained
at Parkersburg.

CHAMBER OF CoMMERCE.-We were
very much surprised to find so few mer-
chants on change yesterday. The Board
ofManagers have done all in their power
to induce the members to attend. The
question now is, do the merchants OF
Wheeling want aChamber of Commerce!
Is there public enterprise enough to
keep it up2 What is most surprising is
that 30 many of our leading merchants
do not attendance a month They man
ifsst no interest whatever in the institu'
ton. The question may be asked, does
the Chamber meet at convenient time,
and is it centrally located To the lat
ter we answer, it could not be more SO
and as to the time of meeting, that can
be changed at any day. There is every
thing in the Wheeling Chamber OF Com
merce that other like institutions have
to interest the members; consequently
it all lays with the members-and If they
do not show more appreciation of the Ia
bors of the Board of Managers we are
afraid they will resign, and should that
come to pass, the Board of Trade will
then be numbered among the things
that were.
