DEAD.-In another column will be
found the announcement of the death
OF A. Armstrong, ESQ, for many years a
resident of this city. Two years since,
when The infirmities oruge had render
ed him almost helpless. at the earnest
solicitation of a daughter, Mr.. A. went
to Woodsfield to reside, at which place
he died on Saturday last, full OF years
and leaving behind the rich legacy Of
an honorable name and useful life.
Mr.. Armstrong came to Wheeling il
1906 or 10Y, and was, therefore, at the
time of his death, II our information is
correct, the Oldest resident here, with
perhaps one exception. Mr.. Mcclure
is, we believe, the only one now living
in the city who came to what was then
Wilderness cotemporaneOusly with
MIR. Armstrong, and is the last of u
generation which settled here Mt that
early day and laid the foundations of
this city amid the perils and privations
of frontier life. Mr.. A. during his long
and oventful career was called TO fill
several responsible positions both in
church and State, which he did with
credit TO himself and great acceptance
to the public. He was editor and pro-
prietor of the first newspaper publish
ed in this city, transporting the paper
on which it was printed on pack horses
over the mountains. This was about
the year 1s0s. Subsequently he erected
the paper mill at Fulton, and dissolved
his connection with it only a few years
since. He lived to see our city attain
an enviable position among the manu-
featuring places of the country, and his
denth will be regretted by large circle
of friends and acquaintance here and
elsewhere.

ExAMINED-John Martin Crow, alias
John Martin Grim, the boy who was
charged with placing distractions on
the track of the Hempfield Railroad
last Tuesday, an account of which APP
peared in our columns on Wednesday
morning, was brought before Judge
Johnston on Saturday, Mt half-pust
ten o'clock, for examination. Mr.. Bur-
ton, Superintendent of the road, who
was on the train at the time it was
thrown of, and TWO or three other
gentlemen who reside near the scene OF
the accident, were examined as wit
nesses. One or two of the latter had
seen young Grow, alias Grim, at the
point where the accident occurred,
engaged in doing something, they
could no! say exactly what, but the
fair presumption was that hewas then
placing the distractions on the track,
as the road hands had passed over the
trestle work but IL short time previous
ly, and it WIS all cleur.
The defence introduced three or four
witnesses, whose testimony was chiefly
in reference to the mental condi-
ton of tho boy. There was no effort
made: by tho defence to show that he
was not guilty of the charge, but, as
before observed. to establish tho fact
that he was non compOs mcans.
The Justice after reviewing the evil
dencs at considerable length, commit.
ted tho prisoner to jail for trial ut the
next term OF tho Circuit Court of this
county.
1t was understood about the time the
examination closed, that Judge Thos.
w. Harrison was in the city, and that
an effort would be made to have the
prisoner released on bail; but itwns
subsequently ascertafned that the
Judge was not here, and the boy was
conveyed to Jail. We learned in the
evening that Judge Caldwell would be
in the city TO day, and that application
would DO made to have the boy put I'M
der bond for his appearance Mt court.

Democracy who shall be nameless,
making a speech to Democratic gath

thy gentleman, very Intelligent gem
tleman, who before the rebellion owned
countless "niggers" and lived like "a

the natural prerogatiye of Democrat

the result was he was beaten 500 votes

Truly what safety is there any longer
for a Democrat when "nlggers" are nj

Another one of the speakers at the
same meeting was Democrat who
spent two years in the West Virginia
penitentisry. He described the patri-

how he wanted toget out in order that
he might join tho Union army and

vocation without having taken out IL
