A STATE Editorial Conven.
tion will be held at Springfield
on Thursday and Friday, Feb>
ruary "a and 25, to consider
matters beneficial to the coun.
try press. We don't know
why that city should be Sc

less our brethren propose to
beard the lion in his den.-
There never was an institution
in or out of this State that has
skinned country printers Out
of as much as has the Spring.

person will introduce the fol.
lowing resolution, which was
passed unanimously by the
Ohio Valley Editorial Union,
at its meeting in Portsmouth:
ResOlred, That the county

printing, and that we, as a
Union, will resist the with.
drawal Of such work by foreign

Pig IrOn-rhe Tariff.

There is considerable excite.
ment in Congress and through
out the country on the subject
Of the Tariff, especially that
part of it which applies to pig,
iron. Mr.. Commissioner Wells
says that England can make
pigNirOn and ship it to America
cheaper than it can be made
here. Mr.. Wells and all the
Free Traders think that we
should have the privilege of
buying iron where it can be
had the cheapest. They there.
fore say that the present duty
Of 50 per tun should be remov-
ed or greatly reduced.
On the other hand it is claim
ed that there Is now only a
profit of about one dollar a tun
in the manufacture of pig iron,
and that the dulyis taken off
the furnaces must stop. This
would create such a demand
in England for iron that accord
ing to the law of supply and de-
mand, the price of English iron
would be about what It, is now,
SO that the country would gain
nothing by having cheaper
iron, but would lose the duty
now paid. which is over one
million dollars in gold every
year, besides the misery OF hav.
ing thousands upon thousands
OF men thrown out of work, to
say nothing of ores lying
worthless in the ground.-Lo.

MANY will remember the case
of Martin Green, of Benton
Harbor, Mich, who, last spring,
had 800 of his peach trees
girdled in a night by unknown
scoundrels; and how the 4citi-
zens turned out en- maSSe and
dressed the trees with salves
and rags, and how" the trees
bore a marvellous crop of
peaches. Soon after their bur-
den had been gathered, they
were girdled again, and Mr..
Green in despair thought he
must have some enemy in the
neighborhood and sold his farm
and moved away. Mr.: Hunter,
a Chicagoan, bought it, and, a
few days ago, the orchard was
again outraged. The people
are terribly excited overi it and
are making extraordinary Ell.
forts to detect the despoilers,.

Adventures of Two Medical
Gentleman during the
Morgan Raid.


We heard our genial friend,
Di. Doddridge, relate the fol>
lowing adventure, which occur.
red duringthe famous Morgan
Raid:
% On the Goth of July, 1863, it
was reported that Morgan with
his band was in the southern
portion of the county and max.
ing his way towards Macarthur.
The militia, which included
about all of the able Bodied
men, were in PortsmOu tb. The
town was in a hubbub. All OF
the good housewives had buried
their silver spoons, and other
little treasures, and were awd lit.
ing the arrival of the raiders.
His wife had already hidden
hers in a dozen CIR more "good
places" when she advised him
to take his horse, and about
fourteen hundred dollars in
money which he had about
him, and go to the woods until
Morgan passed. She argued
that by remaining he could do
her no good and would lose
his horse and probably his
money, while by going he
would save both.
The Doctor consented, and
going out on the street, met
Or. Wolf, and repeated his
wife's suggestion to h i m.
DR.. Wolf replied that he was
going to send his horse up to a
clearing above town by a boy.
lie thought DR.. Doddridge
could send his also, with safety;
but Doddridge's pocket was
rather heavier than would be
comfortable to expose to a
band of ireebooters, and he
mounted his horse and started
out of town in a northw esterly
dire ctiOn. On the road he
overlook a man who had just
returned from Portsmouth, and
was going to his home, near
Locust Grove. To him he
loaned the horse to ride home,
with the understanding that it
was to be returned the next
day, ard then took to the woods,
about five or six miles north,
west Of town. After wander
ing about for sometime he hid
his money under a rock, and
then continued his wanderings
over hill and hollow until the
next morning, his time being
spent in endeavors to keep
himself comfortable and wish
ing for daylight. r. ..
At daylight he returned to
the place he had deposited his
found it all right, and
started homeward, meeting the
man with the horse as per ap'
pointment. He approached
the town with many misgiv-
ings. He felt confident Nor
gan had spent the night there,
but was not so confident that
he had taken his departure
However, he approached the
own, and found everything in
/ state OF excitement. The
first person he met informed
lim that DR.. Wolf had been
out the night before, had bro.
ken his leg, and was very anx.
ious for his, Doddridge's, arri.
val to have the broken bone
set. Doddridge went to see
him Immediately, set the bone,
and learned that DR.. Wolf had
sent his horse to the clearing
by the boy, where both horse
and boy were captured by
who had taken that
cute, avoiding the town, ard
.ncamping on the farm of Cor.
lelius Karnes. DR.. Wolf
heard of this during the night,
