TAMMANY's DAY.-Tammany's Day,
MAY 12,) during the early history OF
our country was kept as an anniver-
sary day. At tho institution of the In
proved Order of Red Men, in 1913, they
adopted the day as an annual holiday,
which was kept with great spirit until
about the year 1881, when its celebra.
ton fell into disuse. at the session o.
the Great Council of the United States,
held in 1867, 1t was resolved that the
early practice OF the order should be re-
vived, and the day has since been cell
ebrated in quiet way by the mcmbers
Of the order. At the session of the
Great Council of Pennsylvania, held In
July last, committee was appointed
to make arrangements for proper cell
ebration Of the day. The committee re-
ported, at the session in January last,
in favor of a general parade of the
order in Philadelphia. Invitations
have been sent to the order in all the
adjoining States, and great prepara-
tions are being made by the order in
that city to have a creditable display
on the occasion. Quite large number
of the order from the interior of the
S,ate, as we'll as from New Jersey, Del
aware, Maryland and the District of
Columbia, have signified their inten-
ton to participate. Whether any &C
ton in this matter has been taken
by the Red Men In our or city not, we
have not been informed.

F1RE.-About nine o'clock last even
ing fire was discovered in the dry
house of Messrs. Wilson s. Dunlevy,
North Wheeling. The alarm was
sounded and the fire department re-
paired quickly to the spot. Located as
the house is, the engines could not
reach it, but hose was attached to
plug on Main street, and carried to the
threatened building. Even that was
scarcely necessary as the doors had
boon closed and the fire made but little
progress for want of air. Tho flames
were literally smothered. The house
was filled with cooper stuff which was
damaged to some extent, but the loss
will not be heavy. "A similar occur
renee happened at this establishment
about year since. On this as on that
occasion, the fire Is supposed to have
originated from the slaves being placed
too near the flue.

CHANGES AT THE PosT OFFICE.-We
hear that two or three changes will be
made in the clerks at the Post Office,
this morning. Messrs. Cracraft and
Adams, who have served long and faith
fully in their respective departments.
will give place to Messrs. James E.
Hanes and Charles W. Graham. Mr..
Hanes will fill the position vacated by
Mr.. Adams, but we have not heard to
what department Mr.. Graham has been
assigned. Mr.. Frank Johnson is made
chief clerk to fill the vacancy occasion
ed by the removal of Mr.. Cracraft.
It is rumored that Mr.. John Brown,
who for twenty-five or.thirty years has
been porter at the Post Office, will soon
be removed. We have heard the names
of several persons mentioned as his
successor,y. but do not know definitely
who will be appointed.

CORPORATION Observation-Disclosures
an election for corporation officers is to
be held next Monday in South Wheel
ing, no ticket had been brought out by
either party last evening" The Regis
trar in that district was busily engaged,
yesterday, in making out the list ofvo-
tiers. The job is pretty considerable
one, and the joke would be more con-
siderable if there should be no occasion
to uce it. We suppose, however, there
will be an election held, notwithstand-
ing people have apparently lost their
interest in elections since the great con-
test of last year.

it has not been abandoned. The names
subscribed to the call for the meeting
were those of parties who know no
