CONSIDERING the present high price
of coul at points like Cincinnati and
Louisville, it is rather surprising that
more enterprises have not started up
along the shore in the vicinity OF
Wheeling, for getting out coal for those
markets. As it Is, they are largely de-
pendent on supplies from the Monon-
gaheIa river. The Pittsburg Gasette in
forms us that ian Immense quantity of
coal, In barges and boats, awaits rise
to get down to Cincinnati and Louis
vile" from the Monongahela river.
Suppose a similar "immenSe quantity"
awaited rise hereabouts, would 1t not
be into the markets below by the time
the boats from above were cleyerly
afioat ON the waters of the Ohto3 And
suppose that it did not bring by acent
or TWO per bushel as much as the Mon
onUaheIa coal, would not that difference
be balanced by our nearer proximity
10 the markets and the absence OF any
toll fees for passage through locks and
damsP II the business pays shippers
from above why will IL not pay ship
pers hereaboutsf

sKsrKSoE PRoNoUEcED ON LEWIS K.
McCoY-He is Sent to The Pe'rttelttdTy
for Ltre.-we have already alluded to
the verdict finding Lewis K. Mccoy
guilty OF murder in the second degree.
Last Saturday he was brought into
Court at Steubenville, and the Judge
pronounced sentence on him, as fol-
lows:
Lewis X. Mccoy have you anything
10 say why the Judgment OF me Ia"
should not be pronounced against You
McCoy-I am not guilty IN that way.
L aIways ran from Mcdonald whenever
met him, and on that day wheh L sho'
he had a pistol in bis hand;
Jndge HcIIyaiue then addressed the
prisoner in regard to the nature OF the
6ffense committed, and said 70 MIN 7;
at IL very painful to me to pass tnis
ssutehce on any man, but especially on
one whose life has reached so near It's
close, and whose days have been passed
in the practice of ordinary morality
and | hope during the long sentence
which ths Law imposes on you, you
will have an opportunity TO reflect
on the enoFmity OF your ottense, and
repent the great wrong that has placed
this necessity upon me.n The Judge
then pronounced the sentence: "The
Judgment of the Court Is, that you,
Lewis K. Mccoy, be confined in the
Peniteutiary of the Stste of Ohio, at
hard labor, during your life, and that
YOU pay the costs Of this prosecution"
The Steubeuville Herald says that
The prisoner seemed not to be effected
in the least. Not SO with Judge Mcll-
yaine, for during the pronounciug Of
the sentence and afterwards, when he
came down and shook hands with The
prisoner, bidding him good bye, the
Tears rolled down his cheeks. One
standing near said the Judge evidently
felt worse than Mccoy did.

They offer good wages to no avail.
The negroes turn a deaf ear to all

would rather be here, stealing OF

% Money, says the Boston
Post, is said to be the root of all
evil. It is also the tree of vast
good. In fact, money is an i'm

love and liquor, it is vastly bad.
Most people, includingthe heather
in distant lands, are quite willing
to incur the risk of its evil for the
