POLICE CoURT.-The Police Court
lacked its usual interest Saturday. Two
plain DRINKS and one case of resistance
to an officer were all that we could find
On the docket. It's too hot for com.
plicated drunk.
Henry Gardner, whose case was con-
tinued from Tuesday, did not appear
when his name was called. We have q
shrswd suspicion that Henry didn't in
tend to appear when his name was
called. We will 20 further and say that
we are firm in the beliefthat if you were
to rake Wheeling over with fne-tooth
comb, you couldn't find Henry Gardner,
for Henry has shook the dust from his
feet, and now enjoys life, liberty and the
pursuit Of happiness in the Buckeye
State. Henry, some days ago, saw an
officer making an arrest. Hastily
gathering himself together, he made an
attack in force on the officer, whereby
the prisoner was permitted to escape.
He was fined $40 and costs, and con-
demned to ten days Imprisonment be-
sides.
Louis Bell was pulled for being on a
plain drunk on the Island. He was fined
81 and costs, total of about S., as the
clerk told the officer, and the officer told
the Bell.
James Ryan was on plain drunk
contrary to the ordinance in such cases
made and provided. He was fined 81
and costs.

CAMP MEETING AT MoUNDSVILLE.-
Nearly three thousand persons left
Wheeling yesterday to attend the Camp
Meeting at Moundsville. The Balti-
more g. Ohio railroad ran extra trains
to and from the grounds whenever a
load appeared. Besides these the ferry
boat Covington was loaded at the Bel
mont Mill, by seven o'clock, with
visitors to the camp meeting. The
Martinsville folks went down on the
ferryboat Eureka. Except that those
in the boats were annoyed by the sun,
which, about 8 o'clock came out in
tensely hot, they being without shelter
from the scorching rays, they had an
agreeable trip.
On Saturday night the camp was
visited by terrible storm of rain, &C.
companied with thunder and lightning
But few of the tents or shanties being
waterproof, the people occupying them
had but little sleep. We heard one
young lady say their tent was half filled
with water, and that she slept on un.
conscious of the water or the storm
But then she's duck.
A horse tied to a tree in the rear Of
the camp was struck by lightning and
was killed. We heard of ne accidenti
to persons. --
The rain cooled the atmosphere con-
siderably, and in the early part of the
day it was very pleasant in the grove
but by noon the heat was excessive.
We judge there were about five thou
sand persons on the ground, two thou
sand of whom went there for devotional
purposes. The others went down for
Sundays frolic, and they had 1t.

ent yesterday: Revs. Gideon Martin, j

them to East Wheeling, where, with the
assistance he had with him, one of the

A WORD TO HoUsEKEEpERs.-
alton has been given us that those wan.
dering peddlers who 60 from door te
door selling hosiery, buttons, thread
cheap jewelry, and other small articles
and whose customers are generally ser
want girls, have invented new scheme
of dishonesty. We heard of one case
where the peddler, on learning that the
customer had no money, offered to ex'
change his wares for sugar, coffee, and
other household goods. The offer was
accepted, and the larder and kitchen
suffered in consequence. Look out fol
peddlers.

AN OBJECT OF PITI.-A man by the
name Of Roberts on Saturday morning
spread himself, and the fusil oil he wa,
full of, out on the stalls of the Second
Ward market house. When an atten-
tive citizen attempted to remove him,
and attentive citizen got "poke i the
nose" A policeman took Mr.. Roberts to
the lookup. We could but pity the fell
low on the prospect before him. A
chance to fight cockroaches and bed
bugs from SATURDAY. morning until nine
o'clock this morning is not desirable
while it IS so hot, especially.

THANKs.-The gray-bearded sinner
who does up the local chores for the
Intelligencer had copious discharge OF
"wit"-heaven save the mark!-at our
expense on Saturday. We trust he feels
cooler. We hope he feels happier. We
are in regard to the Intelligencer'' folks
a good deal like the man was whose
wife was hitting him on the shoulders
with her fists. A neighbor interfered TO
stop the woman's blows, when the hus-
band, looking up very placidly, said,
"Oh, let her alone. 1t does her good
and don't do me any harm" These at
tempts at wit on the part Of the Infeih'
oencer should be encouraged. To be
sure they are not very witty now, but
the editsr may improve. The Lord
knows there's room for improvement.

DoGs.-There are entirely too many
dogs, worthless and unmuzzled, ours,
going about the streets of our'city dur
ing the day, and making night hideous,
and sleep an impossibility, with their
yells and barking at night. If this
weather continue much longer, and
there is no reason why it should not,
many of these vagabond terriers will
become mad, bite people, and that al
ready unpopular beverage, water, be-
come still more abhorred.
We heard a man whe has been
troubled by the midnight noises of dogs
say he would poison few of them with
arsenic. This wont do. There are per
sons whose duty it is to lock after them
and the proper way to dispatch dogs il
by the pound and not by the grain
