GRowISG.-Ch Cheyenne City is rapidly grow
ing. A letter from there, few weeks ago, to
the Golden City (ColoradO1 Transcript, says
city lots sell for from $3.50 to $500, and there
are in town eight stores and groceries, two
butcher shops, one brewery, one dairy, several
boarding houses and tobacconist A brick
kiln is being put up, large amount OF wood,
hewed logs and square timber is coming in
daily from the mountains. Fine hay lands pro-
duce an abundance of that staple. The agri-
cultural advantages are about the same as that
of Golden City, Denver, etc. Nearly all the
religious denominations are represented.

WHO'S RICH OR GREAT Z


he Is not rich, though lord OF lands.
Though guineas crowd on him untold,
who minions, or who realms command,
Whose soul is unto avarice sold,
He is not rich, he is not blest;
A quenchless thirst abides for more.
Fen as the mighty waves unrest,
That strikes the ever-yielding shore.
He is not great, though Norman seed s
Fell to augment his store of fame;
Who only does a noble deed A
That crowds may blazon forth his name.
He is not rich, he is not blest;
Tho grandeur fringe the outward scene,
g And star and coronet attest
His vaunted greatness; still he's mean
He's rich who, having little, still
Learns with it to be all content,
Who rules his passions and his WILL
And goes the way his Saviour went.
He's great; in greatness none excels,
Meath f1stian vest or tatter'd coat.
Whose breast with high emotion swells,
who never thinks unholy thought.

A DAMsEL from one of the neighbor-
ing towns came to this city on Satur-
day and sold herself for a pint of rum.
Of course her pedal appendages got in
volved in the ribs of her hoops, and she
kissed her mother earth with the back
of her head. So energetically was this
latter action performed that her tongue,
which is hung on apivot and loose at
both ends, was set a going, to the great
scandal Of the Second Ward, and to the
manifest infraction of the peace aud
dignity Of the corporation of Wheeling.
She fell into the hands of the police and
was taken TO the l@k:-apS5 e

THE annual assemblage of ministers,
denominated the Pittsburg Annual Con-
ference of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, one of the largest bodies OF
that numerous ecclesiastical organiza-
ton, takes place at Massiion, Ohio, on
Wednesday next. The Conference en-
braces the uppey counties Of this State
and the neighboring counties of Ohio
and Pennsylvania. Its proceedings are
expected to be, to the full, as interesting
and important at this session as ever
before; perhaps more so, inasmuch as
this is the close of the centenary year,
of hich many ofour readers have heard
during the month past. =

THE WASHINGTON COUNTY Poison
ING CAsE.-During last week the Grand
Jury returned true bill against Mary
Crumrine, the woman who is in Jail ON
a charge of having caused the death of
Augustine Wells, of Greenland; by the
administration of poison. On motion
of the District Attorney, the considera-
ton of the case was postponed until
May term, it being evident that the
other homicide cases would consume the
whole of the present term. 81.

EGGS. = The hucksters have been
crowding eggs into distant markets of
late, with more energy than profit. An
egg could scarcely be procured, in
Wheeling, some weeks past, to clear a
pot of coffee, from the fact that buck
sters snapped them up and shipped them
off to other, and as theysupposed, better
markets. The tide has, however,
changed, and so rapid has been the de-
cline in prices that shipments have al
most ceased. g FL. ".

Cured on the Pan Handle railroad
about ten o'clock on Thursday night, o
short distance east of Sawmill Run, by
which ap engine was thrown off the

A COOP HIT.-To the soulless, staring
apes, who sport the habiliments and as
sumo the, appearance of men only to
stand on the street-corners and watch
the ladies passing by, frequently in
dulging in ribald comments in tones
sufficiently loud to reach the ears of the
objects of their blackguard remarks,
we commend a careful perusal of the
following, which we clip from an ex-
change:
He was standing on the corner
In the place where loafers meet,
And he watched the dressy damsels
As they waded DER the street.
From his mouth came inuend0es,
And his eyes were opened wide,
As on tip-toe they came dancing
Ger the muddy, sloppy tide,
When lady and her daughter,
Stepping carefully along,
Closely yelled from street.inspectiOn,
Heard his Shiny, 'venomed tongue.
Then the little wells were lifted,
And with shame his head he hung,
For his mother and his sister
Thus had struck the speaker dumb
