THE BARBECUE.

West Virginia having been redeemed, re-
generated and disenthralled from the vile po-
litical slavery to which she has been subjected
for the past five years, it has been deemed
meet and appropriate that our people should
gather together in an old-time barbecue and
tournament-not for the purpose of any un>
necessary glorifcation over fallen foe-but
to rejoice over liberty regaiued, independence
achieved, aud justice sustained For the
purpose of accomplishing this object, as will
be seen by reference to another column, a
meeting was held by our citizens on Wednes-
day evening last, and various committees APP
pointed to discharge the duties necessary for
the occasion, and to-day Tuesday, fixed upon
as the time for holding this festival. The
time has been short, but with the industry
and energy of the different committees, and
liberality on the part of our citizens, it is
hoped the affair will prove success beyond
expectation. Let every freeman turn out,
and swell the grand concourse that will be
gathered together on this occasion.

West Virginia Victory.

From the Leesburg Mirror whose editor is
a native of Charlestown, we copy the follow
ing =
1t is not often that we are disposed to crow,
and in these latter days we have rarely had an
opportunity of doing so-but the result of
the election in West Virginia last week has
so thrilled US with JOY, that we can not resist
the temptation of allowing our long cooped
chanticleer one long, loud cocka-d oodle-doo
at the glorious dawn of the bright day which
has at last broken upon the noble sons of that
Radical cursed State-the issue of political
violence perpetrated upon the old mother
Commonwealth. 1t is not merely because it
adds three names TO the roll of honor in the
next Congress, which will count as six votes
in favor of just government, that we rejoice
nor because it expels from Office one set of
men, and instals another but it is because we
behold the CALLING chains of an intolerable pol
itical prescription, riveted by miserable, mar
row minded clique, upon the limbs of noble,
brave, generous people-shivered and broken
into atoms-and read that the land of our
birth and the friends of our childhood are no
longer to be ruled by barker's dozen of the
"trooly loil," scarcely one of whom, in the
halcyon days when this new issue was a vir-
gin child of her mother, was deemed worthy
of the least of her honors

RECOGNIZES THE SITUATION.

Acting upon the old adage, that "an open
confession is good for the SOUL" the editors
of the Berkeley Union, in their last issue, in
troduce their leader in the following style:
"We have no definite, official figures of the
result of the election throughout the State,
but we honestly believe ace are routed, horse,
foot and dragons !"
Again, after contemplating the probabili-
ties of Convention and extension of the reg
istration, the Union, recognizing the final de-
feat and humiliation of Radicalsm and pro-
scription in West Virginia, is already casting
about for a new anchorage; but we trust that
this rotton craft has gone so far up Salt River,
that no tide will ever prove sufficient to watt
it out again. See how nicely the Union
smooths the matter over -
"The registration at best, under their (the
Democratic) rule, is nullity-as was proved
by Tom Swami in Maryland. We hope,
therefore, they will pull down the fences and
fill up the holes at once, for we verify believe
that Republican or Whigism will soon beat
them after that. There are great questions
underlying the Republican party, which the
people are bound to sustain, such as non-re-
pudation, protection &c, and once rid of the
registration law, or if you, Mr.. Rebel, prefer
it, once rid of its proscriptive features, the
paople will divide anew upon these questions,
and there is no doubt but there can be found
men enough faithful and favorable to an hon
est payment of the National debt, and in ia
vor of home protection to carry this State
every election"

"A boy about fifteen years old, according
to the New Orleans Republican, was recently
picked up while in starving condition,
searching through the streets OF that city for
employment. He said that three weeks pre-,
vious he, with one hundred and fifty other
orphans, were taken from the Worcester,
Mass, Orphans Home, in charge of an agent,
Charles Brown. They all proceeded South,
and aster travelling day or two, the man in
charge began to leave half dozen lads at each
railroad station, which proceeding was con-
tinued until all had been scattered, the last at
Montgomery, Alabama, where the agent dis
appeared. The waif then found himself alone
without money. Not knowing what to do, he
travelled through the country until he found
himself in Pensacola. Still wandering, he
shook the sand of that inhospitable village
from his shoeless feet, marching for Mobile
Still unsatisfed he struggled his attenuated
body on board the mail boat, and arrived here
quite Frustrated. While passing through the
streets policeman sent him to the Charity
Hospital When recovered he was told to go,
and for two days, without aim, he begged
subsistence, at night finding a poor resting
place under the wharves, eating littil or moth.
ing Is this the way they care for the or
phaus in Worcester, Massachusetts

THE RESULT.

It being now ascertained that the Conserva-
tiVes and Democrats have triumphed glorious
ly over the Ultra Radical party in the late
election, and have elected their Governor and
other State officers by sweeping majorities,
and have secured majority of both branches
of the Legislature, attention is naturally d.
rectcG to the subject Of a Senator of the United
States to succeed Mr.. Wiley. There was
time when this gentleman was one of the great
guns of the Wing party, but having voted for
all the ultra despotio measures of the party in
POWER, he has no longer place in the affec-
tions of those who venerate the ancient land
marks of the Constitution. He must 90 over
board. The old ship has no use for pilots
who have run her on the rocks and shoals.
1t is now conceded by all minded men
that, as the Western part of the State has fur
nished the Senators for eight years, and that
we are to be misrepresented by one of them
for four years more, the Eastern portion of the
State is entitled to one at least, and that when
Foreman runs through his term the middle
section can furnish good man.
We think it only just that the new Senator
shall be taken from our part of the State !;
and Jefferson, being the largest ax-paying
county, is, we think, entitled to bring one of
her citizens before the public and propose him
to the Legislature as one entirely competent
to fill, and in every way worthy of that i'm
portant Office. We believe we will but re-
echo the sentiments of every conservative of
this section when we name the Hon. VIM Fl.
TRAvERs as the man of all others who will be
acceptable to the people who are to be repre-
sented. Mr.. Travers was at one time men,
Der of the Maryland Assembly, and acquired
distinction as Speaker of that body; he is,
therefore, not without experience in making
laws. Being gentleman in the truest sense
of the word, of sound and enlarged ideas upon
the great political questions of the day, flu
ent and logical orator, and, so far as we know,
without any disabilities to be removed in order
to render him eligible to the post, we deem
him altogether suitable for it, and we'll calcu-
lated to discharge the duties attending it con-
scientiously, ably, and successfully.
Free Press.
We cordially second the above. Justice
and right demand that this section of the
State should have fair proportion of its rep
resentatioD, and we know of no more able
statesman, sound orator, or honorable gentle
man in the State. or one in whom West Vir>
ginia could more safely conide this high and
responsible trust, than the Hon. VIM. II.
TRAvERs. 4 residence of some years in our
midst has proven him to be one of our best
citizens, admired and esteemed by all who
know him, and gentleman universally pop
ular among all classes

Proposal for Arbitration Between Vir-
ginia and West Virginia.


In the Virginia Senate, on Friday Of last
week, the following joint resolution Was sub
mitted by Mr.. Herndon, and ordered to be
printed:
years made every honorable effort to procure q
settlement with West Virginia fits proportion
of the public debt incurred before the sspars-
ton of the two States, all of which efforts
have proved unavailing; and whereas it is
essential to the financial interests of Virginia
that said settlement should be obtained as soon
As practicable, and this State being unwilling
to proceed at law against West Virginia until
all other means are exhausted; now, therefore,
Be IL ResolUed By the Senate (the House Of
Delegates eoncurring), That the Governor of
this commonweallh be, and he is hereby, au-
thorized to tender to the State of West Fir-
ginia an arbitration of all matters in dispute
between the two States; and especially all
matters touching full and final settlement
and apportionment between said States of the
said public debt and in the event of the ae-
5ceptance of such arbitration by West Vir-
ginia, then the Governor is authorized to ap-
point as arbitrators on the part of this State
the Hon. Geo. Ell. Pendleton, of the State of
Ohio, and the Hon. Judge Benjamin r.
two arbitrators selected by West Virginia not
citizens of West Virginia said arbitrators to
call 10 a fifth should they deem it advisable so
to do, or should they fail to agree.
The decision and award of such arbitrator
to be final and conclusive between the two
States on oil such matters of controversy.

A Girous in a Storm.

BELLEvILLE, ONO, Oct 21.-This even
ing, about the middleof the performance in
Van Amburger's menagerie, sudden gust of
rain and wind came on. The tent was tossed
about in frightful manner. The audience
rushed from their seats in every direction
Under the directions Of the manager the
shoWmen sprang to the ropes and lowered the
centre of the tent; bnt the wind proved too
strong for them. The chains and ropes on the
west side were broken. and the immense tent
was lifted many feet high, and carried sheer
over the heads of the people aPd fen on the
east side of the ground, The lights we're ex-
tinguished, and pitch darkness prevailed.-
The large centre poles aud other smaller poles
we're dragged by the ropes through the people,
aud fell among them, erushicg and manning
quite number. The people, blinded by the
darkness, rushed in every direction, supPosing
they were coming toward the village. till many
of them found themselves on the banks of the
Clear Forks. farther from home than when
they started .leaeI
DR.. ". D. Whiteomb, who was wounded in
the head and arm, seeing one of the lights in
the village, made for il. When he got nearly
to it he saw something white shining in the
darkness. On closer scrutiny he recognized
the tusks of the elephant Tippoo Saib, who
ndu DfOScn IOOSe anu was leaving INC Suun III
disgust. While the doctor was rejecting on
the best method of capturing him, he saw
something white approach, which proved to be
the keeper, who appeared sans unmentionables,
having been in the act of dressing for the per-
Torrance with the elephant when the catas-
trophe occurred.
The lions cage was caught by the ropes
and oVerset, falling upon Professor Langwor-
thy, the lion tanner, and seriously injuring him.
1t is too soon to know the number. of per-
sons injured. A little daughter of Mr.. Will
liam Gehart was struck on the forehead and
the skull badly fractured. A daughtar of Mr..
David Stelts is SO badly hurt that her life is
despaired of Miss Rosie White, Miss Emma
Charles, Miss Agnes Gary, Dr. Whitcomb,
Andrew Evarts, Addison Hamilton, and doubt
less many others whose names 1 have not yet
learned were more or less injured.
1t is proper to add that no blame can be at
tached to the managers of the show, as the
tent was secured as we'll as such tents usually
are
One lady was struck upon the head by a
pole but her waterfall received the blow and
doubtless saved her life. NJ.
