THE PERILs OF LUMBERMEN.-A raft
from the South Fork of Hughes river
passed here Sunday about 10 A. NJ, with
broken oars in charge of four men. The
persons on the raft had gotten thor
oughly saturated the day before bg
falling into the water, and passed this
place very much chilled. Mr.. j. b.
Westfall, of Richie county, was taken
off at Little Hooking, almost dead. and
is reported to have since died. The
other three are safe. though one of
them was nearly dead from exposure.
The raft was landed about twenty miles
below here. The remains of the de-
ceased are expected to arrive here this
evening to be sent to Richie county.

JUMPING THE RoPE.-Rope jumping
is all the rage among the little girls
hereabouts. 1t is good, healthy exer-
else when INDUCED in to moderation,
but there is great danger from over
exertion and over heating in this rope
jumping. Yesterdays tsburgh pa
pers relate how girl about eleven
years old, in rope jumping contest
with ether little girls in that city ON
Saturday last, jumped rope over two
hundred times. Her life paid the for
felt of her success.

The WATCH TRADE. - The watch
trade has become quite feature in the
business of Wheeling. We now have
in our midst firm enterprising enough
to import Watches direct from Switzer-
land. Oxtoby & Dufield, the Market
street IJswelers, have had their watch
in the market for near year, and many
are the testimonials, they have received
as to its merits for accuracy as TO time,
neatness of finish, and durability as q
steady, reliable time-piece. The watch
bears their firm name, and is guarau-
teed in every respect.

GOING TO SHINE.-The little squib we
had yesterday about the Weston Demo
crdt has developed the fact that that
paper will soon appear in new dress,
and will be then one of the handsomest,
as it is now one of jolliest, spiciest, best
edited papers in the State. We note
this proposed improvement with the
more pleasure as we know Cozad 81
Woffinden to be able energetic editors,
thorough and reliable Democrats, who
will win success, and who deserve it.

RIVER NEwS.-The river is falling
rapidly, and last evening the marks
showed twenty-one feet six inches. At
Pittsburgh there is eleven feet three
inches and falling. There will, it is
likely. be another swell shortly. The
rain of Yesterday was constant and
pretty general, extending up into the
mountains, where there is yet a good
deal of snow to be melted off. 1t will
not take a great deal more water to
food Cincinnati. At Pomeroy the river
Is out of its banks, and only lacks three
feet of being as high as in January.
The Allegheny Belle arrived night
before last. She is lying at the boat
yard having her guards repaired. She
leaves for st. Louis, we believe, on Mon
day.
The Jno. W. Garrett is at Steuben-
vile. She took up q lot of iron ore.
We are not advised OF the date of her
departure.
The Matamoras packet Hope broke
her shaft and tore 4 cylinder to pieces
Yesterday. This will necessitate her
withdrawal for week or two until she
can have repairs made.
The Hudson will arrive to day. She
will leave at o'clock tomorrow after
noon for Cincinnati. Passengers will
find her safe and comfortable.
A new mountain steamer; called The
Sioux City, commanded by Captain
E. B. Cooper, of Wellsville, left Pitts
burgh last evening on her way to Sioux
City. She is destined to ply between
that point and Fort Benton. Her hui
was built on the Upper Monongahel'
and her machinery at wellsville.
