/ Leaves Bellaire, on the Central Ohio
road, every Sunday morning, at 10
I O'Clock, going as far west that day as
] Columbus, and putting passengers into
| Cincinnati at o'clock on Monday
morning No connections are made
with it from the city here on either
side OF the river.
Some fifteen or eighteen new houses
are in process of erection at Bellaire.
The town is said TO be growing as fast
as any place OF its size in Ohio.
From fifty to seventy-hve cars of
freight are crossed on the flats between
Benwood and BeIIaire each day. It is
said that the Baltimore company are so
well satisfied with this arrangement
that they are holding the project OF Il
bridge in allegiance.
Speaking about that bridge, the COM
pany have nm immense quantity of
hewn stone scattered over the grounds
fronting the river. Probably there are
II thousand blocks of stone averaging u
ton each.
The new nail mill is nearly ready for
operations and will probably start this
fail. 1t will be cooperative estab-
lishment and several of our Wheeling
people will be connected with Its man
agement. 80 ~ ~ 4
The Cleveland q Pittsburgh railroad
company now run trains from Bridge
port to Pittsburgh as follows: The.frst
ut 6:25 A. M, the second at 1850 A. NJ,
and the third at BOB P. NJ. This last
train does not suit the local travel as
well as the former arrangement at 4:4O
p. NJ, for the reason that there is no
train down Hntil nearly noon, and per-
sons are too much hurried to get
through their business in time to re-
turn by the two O'Clock train.
The following items are from the st.
Clairsville Chronicle:
The Chronicle only costs 50 90 year.
Every Union man in Belmont county
ought to take it.
About $500 dollars will remain in the
Treasury after paying OFT the premium
list and other debts of the Fair.
Workmen have been engaged for
week and more in putting an additional
story on Frazer,s Hotel.

now resounds with the hammer and
saw ofthe carpenter. This building.
when completed, will be an ornament
to the town. 1t is the only iron front
in the county.
Messrs. DIR. Fisher and Jesse Bowley
have made and are making very great
improvements on their property.
Mr.. Tom. Lawson, colored man, car
ried every pound of mortar that went
into welday's block-some OF it up
three stories. During all this time he
kept five briCklayers supplied with
'.mort." "Old Mort" as the brick
layers call him, is a hero. s..r.
In most ofthe townships of this coun-
ty, every inch of the ground was con-
tested, and in many the challenging
was very fierce. As will be seen the
county goes against us $50 on Governor,
and 1874 on the constitutional amend
ment. The amendment suffered most
in Warren, Pease. aud Goshen. Gal
liant little Wheeling is our Banner
Township, giving "a Democratic ma
.iority, against 2S last year-a gain of
only one; while but 6 Union men pun
ished the amendment. ~
Here, in Belmont county, the men
who decorate their parlors with the
portraits of Jeff. Davis and StOnewall
Jackson, and drank toasts to the "un-
returning braves" hoping there might
be million of them, are in close COM
munion with the men who fought dur
ing the rebellion under the flag of
treason, and are jubilant over the re-
suit.
