The Democratic party cannot orgsnizs moment
too soon. II the State Constitutions are TO be
defeated and conservative president elected II
can only be done by the Democracy. II Is. there
FIRE, the duty of ali conservative men TO act with
the Democratic party, instead Of making attempts
10 start new party, with new name, and
without an honorable name TO recommend it. The
Democracy Of fhe South viii be recognized IN the
National Democratic Convention, and rhould GER

ton to appoint delegates will soon be called, in
which we hope 10 see every PARISH fully repre-
sented. We shsn recur 20 this iu.portsnt subject

A "Blaek Crooko Joke.

A "Blaek Crooko Joke.
When the "Blsck Crook" company
arrived in this city, the manager drew
q lively sketch in ink, of one of the
best scenes from the play, upon the Nc
Lure House register, leaving a blank
space below, and registered the names
of his company upon the opposite page
Immediately beneath the sketch was
written, attaches of the "Black
Crook"
The members of the Legislature ar
irving that evening, many of then
registered their names in the blank be-
meath the "Crook" picture, without Oh
serving the designation they were ap
propriating. Next evening legal gen
tleman asked a legal gentleman from
the country chow he had been spending
the day :" "Been to the Black Crook
matinee" was the reply. "Wheref
sAt the State House," was the response
Our city friend suggested that this the
atrical institution "did not exhibit a

the interior; 81 saw the Same chaps per

Token of Regard.

Token of Regard.
Mr.. James Maxwell, of the firm of
Maxwell & Tingle, was yesterday made
the recipient of handsome token Of
regard, in the shape of pair of supe-
rior gold spectacles and magnificent
solid silver case. The present was
made to Mr.. NJ. by the gentlemen employ
ed in his store, as a slight token of their
regard for him as an employer and a
gentleman. The spectacles are the
finest manufactured, the frames being
solid gold and the glasses of a superior
quality; the case is one of the finest
ever gotten up in Wheeling, being
solid silver, neatly lined with the finest
silk wadding, and handsomely carved
on the top and bottom, in the centre is
engraved the words, "James Maxwell
Wheeling" Mr.. N. had just returned
from trip to New Orleans
and other Southern cities where
he had been for pleasure and business,
and we are sure the presentation of this
token of regard could not but have
been an agreeable surprise. 1t must
be pleasant to an employer to receive
such testimonial of friendship and es-
TEEN, and the donors, no doubt, real
lied that it was "more pleasant to give
than to receive" The present was
gotten up for the donors by MeSsrs. Ok
toby Il Duffield, jewelers., 100 Main
street. 1t must be seen to be appreci-
ated. We congratulate Mr.. N. upon
being the recipient of such present.

proceeded to the mirror, and it reflected

Sentence OF Eiseie, Rlins shneGer-
Execution Fixed for Friday, March
9Th.
We take the following extract in re-
lation to the appearance and sentence
of Eisele alias Shaeffer, from the Par
kersburg Times of January 22d:
Long before IL o'clock yesterday
rnorning-the hour fixed for the reas-
sembling of the Court-a large number
of citizens filled the Court House.
When the hour arrived the Judge
quietly took his seat, and in few min
utes the prisoner was brought in by the
deputy Sheriff. On entering the Court
room, and while making his way
throu Oh the dense crowd which anx-
iously scanned his features, he was very
pale and presented worn and haggard
appearance. He dragged the chain
which secured his ankles with apparent
difficulty, and, on arriving in front of
the Judge, dropped into the chair which
was placed for him with evident relief.
When requested by the Clerk to rise,
he did so at once and remained standing
during the reading of the findings of
the Grand Jury. In closing this formal
part of the proceedings, the Clerk put
the usual question to the prisoner,
whether he had anything to say why
the sentence of the Court should not be
pronounced. To this he replied "no,"
in faint voice and with a decidedly
negative shake of the head.
The Judge then proceeded to deliver
the sentence of the Court. During
the delivery of his sentence of death
Eisele stood like statue without NOV
ing muscle Of his BODY or face. No
tears gathered in his eyes, no change OF
colsr shaded his countenance or chang
ed his features in the slightest degree.
With quiet firmness, pale, calm and UNI
moved, he met his fate with stolid in
difference and with the Sheritf's escort
passed calmly back to bis prison cell,
walking in the open air for the last
time until his final trip to tie gallows
without the least apparent emotion.
The judge, after ably and feelingly
portraying the bloody deeds for which
the criminal has been convicted, here
tofore published in the REGISTER, sen,
fenced the prisoner as follows:
The sentence of the Court is, that you
be remauded to the Jail of this county
and there securely kept until Friday the
9TH day of March, 1868. That between
the hours of 10 o'clock A. NJ, and )
O'Clock z. NJ, of the said 9th day OF
March, you be taken by the High Sher-
if of Wood county to some suitable
place within said county, outside of the
Jail yard thereof, aud be hanged by the
neck until you are dead, and may God
have mercy on you.
