THE HOPE FIRE CoMPANY.-We came
across a printed Eamphlet, the other
day, the pcrusal of which amused US
considerably. 1t was the Constitution
of the Hope Fire Company, and printed
in this city, in 1886, by S. II. Davis.
We apprehend the present Hope Com
pany is not acting under this ancient
Constitution. AS relic of olden time,
We publish the list of officers of the
Company at that time. twill be seen
that some of our most worthy and
prominent citizens. now living among
us, were officers of the company. The
following is the list:
James d. Jackson, Director in Chief;
Edwin S. Hoff. lst Vice Director; James
s. Wheat, I'd Vice Director; David Hull
Sd Vice Director; Arthur Little, LIST En-.
pineer, John NJ. McCreary, I'd Engineer
James Z. Wharton, Sd Engineer; james
Y. Patterson, 4th Engineer; Daniel
Lamb, LIST Director of Hose; Mordecai
Yarnall, I'd Director Of Hose; James II
Roberts, Sd Director of Hose; Joseph
Colwell. LIST Director of Ladder and Axe,
men; John Hamiltos, I'd Director O
Ladder and Axemep; Alexander 1

WHY IS ITf-It is conceded Oh all
hands that the pastures were never in
q finer condition in the country than
now. Then why is butter advancingf
With good pastures Mt this time of year
there ought to be an abundance of this
desirable article; yet the price has gone
up. If butter now commands so cents
per pound. what must it be worth when
Winter shall spread his cold mantle
over the earth, and cause vegetation to
die y Then butter will be luxury in
which only the wealthy can indulge
freely. The poor laboring man, ground
to the earth with Onerons taxes in the
shape of high prices, will have to dis
pense with the article. SO with almost
all articles common to the culinary de-
partment of the housekeeper. Prices
are exorbitantly high. The outlay of a
five dollar grsenback in market will
scarcely be noticed in fair-sized bas-
ket. When will times change

From the Scientific Americana

rVWe are having great many en-
quiries for Sewing Machines from vari-
Gus parts of the country, and as we
cannot conveniently reply to them all
by mail, we have thought it proper to
state our opinion in regard to them in
this public manner:
We have used Wilson's patent, man.
ufactured by the Wheeler Il Wilson
Manufacturing Company, and we can
say in regard to it, that it is without a
rival.
1t is simple, not easily pu. out of or
der, when in proper hands, and in
point of effectiveness and finish, no
other Machine stands ahead of it.
This famous Sewing Machine is high
" appreciated the world over. We
state this much in regard to this ex-
celleat Machine upon our ows respon-
sibility.
This Company have made and sold
during the last three months about
| II, 900 machines, and are now producing
and selling 200 per day.

MUNICIPAL COURT.-This Court met
at = o'clock, the hour Of adjournment.
The Judge delivered his opinion in the
case of James Matthews rs. Frobe and
GrossCl0s. He ruled that the three de-
murrers to the three pleas were sustain
ed by law and the facts, and that the
pleas for coniiSCation were bad. The
Court held that under the acts OF con-
fiscatiou, passed by the Legislature of
West Virginia, the suit should have
been commenced when, as was alleged,
the holder of the notes was an enemy
to the State or to the United States,
and during the war. That after the
war, properly speaking, there were no
enemies either to the State or the
United States. Again, that the pleas
were insufficient, as there were no
special allegations of the act committed
which showed the plaintiff to have
been an enemy rs thus charged.
And further, that the laws of
West Virginia were migratory, from the
fact that the Congress of the United
States had legislated on that subject,
and hence the laws of Congress became
the supreme law of the land. And last
ly, the Judge decided that were the
property forfeited under the law, it
could not exonerate the defendants
from paying the debt. 1t only changed
the party to whom the money should be
paid. fit was forfeited, the State was
entitled to the money. BY no means
could the payment of the notes be
avoided.
The Judge gave very lengthy and a
very clear decision, which was listened
to with marked attention. After nat
uralizing Prussian, named Lewis Stro-
BILE, the Court adjourned till to-day a t 9
o'clock p. NJ.
