Special Session of County Com
missi0ners.

The Board met in special session
Tuesday, July Esd. No proposals
having been fled under the advertise
ment for the building of an iron span
for the stone bridge now being built
across Chickamauga, the Commission
ers made contract with Thos. Jones,
who has the contract for building the
abutments, to construct stone arch in
lieu of the iron span at first contemplat-
ed, Jones to receive $1,000 for the work.
The contract was completed at once,
as the case is urgent, and the work
cannot be delayed without great injury
to the interests of the County, the
failure of any one to file bids for the
construction of the iron span compell-
ing immediate action.

District Sunday School Conven.
tiOn,

The convention to take under con-
sideration the improvement of Sabbath
Schools, announced last week, began
its session at the NJ E. Church in this
city, Tuesday, at 10 A. M. The at
tendance at the morning session was
very small, as there was misunder-
standing as to the time of meeting.
The ministers and laymen, however,
put in the time by the reading of es-
says and liberal criticism upon them,
in which all engaged, and in which the
reverend gentlemen handled one anoth-
er without gloves.
The Convention met again at an
early hour in the afternoon, and con-
tinued the reading of essays. and the
free discussion of the subjects brought
before their notice.
At 3P. NJ. the large Sunday School
of the NJ. E. Church was assembled,
and pleasant hour was passed in the
usual Sunday School exercises, singing
by the children and teachers, and
familiar talk to the pupils. Rev. DR..
TRIMBLE, Rev. Mr.. BAKER, and Rev.
Mr.. BoswoRTH addressed the children,
who listened to their pleasant talk with
a degree of interest and patience, not
withstanding the hot weather, that
would have done credit to those of
larger growth. In the evening Rev. ].
H. GARDNER, of Middleport, preached
upon the subject of Sunday Schools.
The Wednesday morning session was
occupied with the reading of essays,
and the usual discussion and criticism
upon them. The convention adjourns
to-day wednesday,
q large number of ministers and
Sunday School teachers from this and
adjoining counties are present, and have
made the occasion one of lively interest
as well as profit, by their free exchange
of opinions and discussions of the va
rious subjects brought before them.
Rev. DR.. TRIMBLE, who is engaged in
the Missionary enterprise, will preach
upon the subject of missions this

The White Sulphur q. r. Con-
vention-Report Of Delegates
Letter from our Correspondent
Richmond, &C., sc.
EpIroR GALL1pOL1s JoURNAL:-

EDITOR GALLIPoLIs JOURNAL
Being appointed as delegates from
Gallia county, to attend the L. r
Convention at the White Sulphu
Springs, in West Va, we beg leave
through your paper, to report tn
result of our enquiries and observa
tions.
The Convention assembled, a
agreed upon, at IL NJ, on the 10tl
inst. After the credentials of tn,
various delegations from the differ
ent sections of the States of Va. ant
West Va, and the adjoining States
interested in the completion of thu
Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad were
read, it was found that there were
about 125 present. The full pro
ceedings of the Convention can be
seen in most of the Va papers on the
line of the road. The object of the
Convention can be fully understood
by the subjoined resolutions, which
embody the deliberations OF the
meeting. AS far as we could ascer-
tain, by what we saw and heard,
during the two days deliberations OF
the Convention, we can state that
there seemed to be hut one prevail
inc sentiment-that the Chesapeake
d Ohio r. R. should be completed,
cost what it may. We can also state,
that there seemed to be such an ear
nest determination on the part OF
those present to complete this great
work, that we were favorably i'm
pressed with the opinion that we can
now fully rely upon something sub
stantial as a result of the effort now
being made. No political bias now
seems to influence Va. in diverting
her railway connections from Ohio.
A great commercial highway through
the centre of the two States is now
undertaken, and, if we are not mis-
taken, the signs of the times are now
propitious for degree ofprosperIty,
in all that pertains to a great COM
monwealth in both West. and East
Va. We the people of Southern
Ohio have been long and anxiously
waiting to see some positive evidence
of the completion of this great work
We now believe that the day is not
far distant when we shall see this
cherished object realized. We hope
shortly to have a direct mail com
municatlon, by the way of the Chesa-
peake d Ohio Railway, between
Washington City and Cincinnati, and
then we can be well assured that we
can have the great commercial high
way between the waters of Chesa-
peake Bay and the Ohio river and
the North West. tits to be expected
that the people of Gallia and the ad-
joining counties, and particularly the
business men of Cincinnati, will seize
upon the opportunity about to be af-
forded by this direct and easy COM
munication with the Atlantic sea-
board, for the great agricultural and
mineral products of this portion of
the Mississippi Valley, and take all
necessary steps to meet the two Vir-
ginias on the banks of the Ohio and
extend to them cordial welcome.

doing in the city, outside of the tobacco ex-
change.
This hotel and the Exchange across the
street are fine, weIl-kept houses. Fare and
accommodations at the Ballard, excellent, for
three dollars per diem.
There seems to be but little ready money
anywhere. The citizens dress comparatiye-
ly plain, and ladies come to the table at the
Ballard in far less fantastic array than are ffe-
quently met on the streets Of C.. Few
fine horses or carriages, and everything gene
rally, wearing q bread and butter LOOK, that
strongly indicates theJsufering and losses of
the inhabitants.
Though, yet hardly out of season, not
single place of amusementis open in the city.
Libby, with its attendant horrors, still stands
as q prison, in use of the o. s. and taken care
of by "the boys in blue" Though far Diff
ferent from during the war, and made as
comfortable as possible, it is q wretched
looking place-an old shabby ,four-story brick
building, on the banks of the canal, partly
whitewashed outside, small barred windows,
to which, when passed, shirtless and hat
less men were clinging, as if longing to get
glimpseof the bright sunshine outside. 1t is
easy to conceive what it could be, under such
rule as the Confederacy. Now at least, every
thing is done to promote hehealth of its in
mates, who are mostly desertersand State
criminals.
1t seems like tremendous bull to see the
emblem of liberty, the stars and stripes, feat
ing over such place, as it does to-day.
Castle Thunder looks better, and il now
used as tobacco factory.
Belle Isle, the scene Of SO much suffering to
our boys, the grave of SO many brave hearts.
looks calm and peaceful. The green corn
and grain smilingly, waving to the rippling
music of the James, washing its shores in the
warm sun, and tells no tales of the horrors,
that but short time ago. it held on its bosom.
1t lies in plain sight of the prominent streets
of the city, and almost in view of Gen. Lees
house, and it is folly to talk of the rebel au-
thorities not KnowlnQ what our men were
suffering there
Bat this is already longer than will suit
your columns, even if you think it worthy
of place in them. So enough. EX.
