BEFORE RECORDER HOUGHTON.-Patr1ck
Frzzell made an affidavit against c. w.
Valley charging him with assault with PTS
tol and an attempt to shoot and threats.
Accused furnished bonds to appear before
Recorder HoughtOn on the fifth of August.
The Rev. DIR. Pollard, No. pa PerdidO
street. made oath that Mrs. Embers, No.
80, same thorOughfare, grossly insulted
and violently threatened him without cause
or provocatiOn. During the examination,
the fact leaked out that all the parties in
terested were no particle better than they
should be. Compartments wife and ac-
cused, each, fined five dollars.
Mrs. Cochran, No. 34l Rampant street,
was arraigned at the bar to answer for hav-
ing grossly insulted and abused Mrs. ana
Mary Martin, corner of Rampant and Cal
Eope streets. The amount Of spite and AMI
mostly displayed III this case, would paint
blue the cerulean hues of yesterday. Ii
any man thinks woman is more angelic than
ne Is, let him listen 10 all the details in a
suit like the above, and he will certainly
conclude that the embodiment of bitterness
and rancor is one woman prosecuting
another for an imaginary or real ofeDse.

THE GREAT UNWASHED.

From the N. Y. Tribune.
AS the warm weather approaches, our
nelghboring village, Philadelphia, grows
sluggishly uneasy, remembering the drought
of last summer and the shabby trick which
her broken-down water works at Fairmount
served her on that occasion. The supply of
water was so low that, if New York had not
sent aid in the shape of an engine, the conse-
Huences might have proved fatal to all except
those leading politicians who with wise fore
sight abstemiously deny themselves the use
of that liquid. Even as it was, the supply
was meted out so many pint cups for each
house; the streets had been SO long uncleaned
save by benefcent rain that no change was
perceptible in them but all washing, even of
the babies faces, was prohibited by autho-
rity. Of course nothing has been done in
the matter since. Philadelphia eherishes
Fairmount and her old families as the Cata-
combs do their mummies the worn-out old
engines creak away unmolested There is
every reason to suppose that the Philadel-
phians will remain permanently thirsty and
unwashed during all summers yet to come
unless Providence mercifully puts an end to
her by a fire which New York is too busy to
put out.
We feel constrained to demonstrate Sc
riously with this prosperous village, bent on
its own destruction. For certain well-known
defects of hers she is not to be blamed.
Cities, as we'll as men, inherit business en-
ergy, intellect, and aesthetic tastes; if our
neighbor is hopelessly slow, deficient in lite
rature and art, and gluttonously fond of ter
rapin, these are misfortunes, not faults, 1t
is. in her blood. Evidently she can't help it.
But she was once at least honest and clean.
Her founder and Washington were her sole
models of excellence. Every house was built
precisely like that of Penn, and every boy
was born with a hatchet in his hand Her
honesty has unfortunately been hopelessly
slaughtered by her Row officers, and its ghost
will never walk again. Upon that point we
are silent But cleanliness may yet be re-
stored. Philadelphia need no longer be
marked, as she is now, as the filthiest city il
the Union. Let our broad-brimmed friends
pause and reflect upon the evils resulting
from lack of the proper use of the bath
Who doubts that the scarcity of water il
Paris has engendered the morbid humors
the discomfort of that revolutionary capital
What might not M. Olivier save in troop
and statesmanship, if he would accept Mr.
Dicks advice upon the problem of the NAL
content, dirty Parisian, and "wash him !
Would that the Croton aqueduct could replac
the Seine, and Paris smell sweet TO HEAVIER
and mankind as New York;

These things, at least, the honest Demo-
Gratis of New York city demand OF the Legis-
lature:-- .
/. An election bill giving in some fair way
the choice of election officers to the people,
and securing TO the minority party repre-
sentation in the guard at the ballot-box. Ring

terms Of Office Of the Mayor and OF all the
appointed heads Of departments terminate at

of government may be grasped by the people
and q revolution wrought in one election.
That is popular government and responsible
government.
If the ring Senators dare vote against bills
giving New York city these two things, then
we propose to make New York city entirely
too hot to contain the bodies or souls Of the
two aforesaid Senators.

held together. We see that the laboring
masses Of the country are restless and chatting
under what they hold to be the despotsm Of
taxes, banks and capital; and we see that after
tremendous revolutionary excitements and the
advances of the last ten years the public mind
will hardly be satisfied with "the cankers of
a calm world" and the mastery inactivity of
Grants administration.

May not the mental and moral torpor Of
our neighbor be explained in the same way
Who lives in mud must himself be
muddy. Let us again earnestly urge reform
ere il be too late. The hideous red-brick
houses swathed in dust, and bounded by
canals of slush, are a spectacle over which
angels and Gothamites might sorrow together.
The story goes that Plus TX, who has mania
for cold water and clean skins, was ap-
preached by an American prelate, the other
day, for his benediction. With twinkle Of
his eye the Pope gave it in italian. 'Ugly
and dirty as thou art, bless thee" We are
afraid that infallible or not, his Holiness
patience would give way if our neighbor
came as a supphcant. There are degrees Of
ugliness and uncleanness which neither gods
nor men can forgive.

THE Barnesville

THE BarnesviIle Enterprise seems to
tctn great pleasure in efforts to dispar-
az, ii. Clairsville and its citizens. 1t
embraces every opportunity that offers
to create prejudice against the town and
its people. Its filings last week about the
Railroad movement are in strict accord
with its usual course. 1t had better
wait little while and see whether the
st. Clairsville Railroad movement is
dead orlnot before it makes such remarks
as it did last week. We know as much
about that movement as the editor OF
the Enterprise and know that it was
commenced before the county seat ques-
tion was raised, and know also that it is
not yet dead. When any Railroad is
built from Wheeling TO the Northwest
st. CIairsville will stand a better chance
to get it than any other point, for the
timple reason that the line indicated
by the route of the Belmont and Toledo
Railroad from Freeport on the Stillwa-
ter to the Ohio River either at Bellaire
or Bridgeport is ashOrter line than either
the one to Mrristown or Bari esville,
by from seven to fifteen miles, and there
can be two hundred thousand dollars
more money raised along this line than
on either of the others.

THE editor of the Gazette says he
does not know where the Mayor of St.
Clairsville gets his authority for order
ing the proprietors of whisky shops to
clese their establishments during public
occasions. The gentleman only displays
the amount of ignorance he usually
does when question of law is involved.
If he will consult the laws of the State
and the ordinances passed by a demo-
cratic town council, instead of his bitter
personal feelings against DIR. West, he
could very easily learn where the au-
thority is obtained. And if he would
consult the respectable, law-abiding
portion of cur citizens instead of the
whisky sellers and their patrons, he
would also learn that the action of DIR.
West is fully sustained.

FIRE IN WHEELING.-About one
o'clock Oh Sabbath morning, "a fire broke
out inthe stable attached to Reid's gro
Gerry and liquor store. The flames spread
rapidly to the warehouse and residence
adjoining, which were soon completely
enveloped. Before the fire could be got
under control, the entire contents of the
residence and liquor store were destroy
ed and the flames had communicated
to Collins brass foundry and Fulton's
plumber shop, both of which were burn
ed to the ground and the contents en-
tirely lost. Owing to some defect in the
water pipes, but one engine could be
made serviceable, which will probably
account for the almost entire destruction
of the four establishments. Reid's stock
of merchandise and liquors was par
TALLY insured. The brass foundry and
plumbing shop were without insurance.

in abundance if the frost does not catch
it.
The Blast Furnace has blown out; it i:
very seldom they cease operation there
but they have to stop overy two years tc

We were visited last season with the
malady and L think the scourge will be
more severe this year. The Orion's"
OF Bellalre came up on Saturday to play
the "Cresent's" OF this place for the
championship of Belmont. County.
They played quite a spirited game al
though the utmost endeavers of the
Creseuts could not gain for them the
crown of champion ship. The score
stood Orions fifty nine, Cresents thirty
three. L suppose return game will be
played.
Since my last communication we have

Our town was represented at the Med

The Advocate finds an increase of the
special tax of 1s69-7O over 1S6S-6J. of
81, ,201. SO, but the amount specified as
paid by the several counties for the two
years shows decrease of S5S2. By ex-
animation of the above figures it will be
seen that Belmont County paid S2Ol.S5
less Income Tax and $500 ess Special
Tax in the last year than in 1S6S-69;
Tuscarawas paid S712.22 more Income,
S535 less Special tax; Harrison paid S12
more Income and $s2 less Special;
Guernsey paid 81, ,l34.29 more Income
and $3.50 more Special, and Noble paid
S27.13 more Income and S445 more
Special. The net excess of taxes paid
in the District in 1S69-70 over 1SoS-69, was
