but especially must this be the case
upon people of limited means. Every
community has poor people in its midst,
who need the kind sympathy and as

nate in possessing the comforts OF ire;
We would suggest to the kiad-Ssartea
and c~onsiderate people oil Colo Hill that
the moor Of our community be not ne
elected; but that they be hunted up and
assisted. We haye plenty Of big-hearted
people here who will readily contribute,

Gods poor are always amongst ns-anu
that one of the first duties we owe 10
our fellow-mau, is beuevolence. There

would not be overlooked while TINS nara
Winter is upon u community.

THE CHAMPION BILLIARD MATCH
The grand billiard match for the cham
MON cue of this State, and the sum oil
$500, in coin, between Wallace W.
Wright, of Virginia, and Tip. Orndorf,
of Belmont, as will be seen By notice IN
another column, takes place on Monday
evening next, Jan. Goth, at Pipers
Opera House. A tournament between
two such 'Knights Of the Cue, involr-
ing the much coveted championship,
and established billiard reputation, aside
from the nice little stake in coin, will
doubtless have the effect to crowd the
Opera House on this occasion with an
immense and interested assemblage.
