RIVER NRws.-Under the heavy rain
of yesterday, which extended all along
the river, the water commenced rising
yesterday and was coming up last night
at rate Of threo inches au hour. AT
six o'clock there was twenty-nine feet

dated 4 o'clock last evening, announced
that the river was rising there with
fifteen feet six inches in the channel

Anna D1cK1SsoN.-The sale of re-


ANNA DIcKNsoN.-The sale of re-
served seats for the lecture Of Miss
Anna Dickinson, on Thursday evening
next, commenced yesterday at Hamil-
ton & Harding's music store. The rush
was very great, and nearly four hun
dred tickets were sold. Considering the
fact that the weather was so disagree
able, we must say this by far surpasses
the most sanguine expectations. Miss
Anna is q clear speaker, and can be dis
tinctly heard in every part of Washing
ton Hall. Those who may not be for
tunate enough to get forward seats,
will lose nothing, as every word of the
lecture can be heard. The subject of
the discourse will be the "Whited
Sepulchre." The speaker will give her
experience among the Mormons at Salt
Lake City, in Brigham Young's domain.
This is said by those who have heard
it, and the press generally comedies it,
to be Miss Annals masterpiece. Let all
go and hear the lecture. The sale of
seats will continue until Thursday.
Ample arrangement, will be made to
seat nearly one thousand persons.

A BEAUTIFUL TRAIN.-We saw yester-
day on the B. & o. railroad as handsome
train of six broad guage coaches as is
run over any road in the country. They
were entirely new and were built at the
conpany's shops at Mt. Clare, under the
direction of Master Mechanic Davis.
They are painted Of an orange color ex-
ternally while the interior is oak
grained. The cars are upholstered in
red and green velvet. The roof is
raised and the glass of the ventilation
windows around the roof is either
stained or ground. 1t is proposed to add
a new train to the passenger stock of
the B. & o. road every week until its
stock shall equal if not excel that of any
road in the country.

BOUND TO RUN.-0ur old Abolition
pard, Scofe, of the Parkersburg Journal,
was in town yesterday, button-holing
members at o terrific rate. He is a
candidate for the position of Janitor
against the colored brother, we men:
toned some days ago. Scofe says he is
just as good a hand for janitor as any
burned niger in the business" OF
this we have our doubts. We think any
such comparisons mighty degrading on
the niger.

THE WEATHER.-We have had the
most extraordinary weather for day
or two past. Warm, spring-like and IN
seasonsble. On Sunday people let their
fires go out aud the streets were filled
with prOmenaders enjoying the deli
cious atmosphere. Early yesterday
morning the heavens were bright,
though the wind was blowing young
hurricane. About 9 o'clock the clouds
overcast the sky and the rain came
down in bucketfulls. Thunder was
heard at different times during the mid
die of the day. For such a winter as
we have had thus far the "oldest iHhab-
liant" does not remember a parallel.

WHEELING,!J january II, fS70.
To His Ercsllency ". E. Stevenson, Cor
ernor Of FEST Virginia:
DEAR SIR:-I have the honor of &C.
knowledging the receipt of letter to
your Excellency and referred to nae for
my opinion, from j. H. Tappen, clerk Of
the Board of Registration OF Ohio coun-
", enclosing an extract from the min.
utes of said Board, from which it ap-
pears that my written opinion is de.
sired upon the question, whether, Heirs
at law of undivided property and living
out ofthe corporation have the right to
vote upon the same" under and by vir-
tue Of the third clause of the fifth Sec
ton of an act entitled an act to incor-
porate the city of Wheeling, passed
March II, 1896.
If by property" is meant real estate,
l am clearly Of tho opinion that they
are entitled to exercise the right of suf-
frsge at any election in said city as well
before as after the property is divided,
provided the undivided share of the heir
offering to vote is worth at least $500,
and he possesses the other qualifications
required by said act and has been duly
registered. There is unity of posses
sion in all, whether they claim by de-
scent, deed, or will, and each has free
hold estate, and is as much entitled to
vote as if he held the entire property in
severalty.
