agree to make it speciality. Until we
have these, we lack the prime element
Of success The masses of the people
may be alive to the necessity Of the en-
terprise. They may even be willing to
contribute of their means cheerfully
aud literally, but it will fail unless
there are o few leading men who have
said in their hearts that the work
shall go forward. What is
everybedy's business is nobody's
business"-is proverb that proves it
self three times a day. The masses feel
content. They even emit o certain
magnetic influence which acts like con-
tagiou, and is all very essential and
useful in its way, but the masses never
build railroads, nor open canals, nor
build great institutions, nor call con-
ventiohs, nor manage them after they
are called. The great tide of enterprise
all over the country is borne upon the
shoulders of few leading spirits that
have a purpose, and have pledged their
manhood to carry it out.
To-day we vote in Monongalia for
subscription and against subscription
for this enterprise. We feel confident
that the friends of the railroad will
succeed-that our section of country
will be redeemed from the fetters of old
fogyism. Be assured that the live part
of our country is with you heart and
hand in this work. ! would be glad if
we could be represented in your con-
vention, and hope we may, and am
sorry that the session of court for our
county will interfere with my accepting
yonr kind invitation.
Very respectfully, W. 2. WILEY.
Senator q. D. Ramsdell, of Wayne
county, being present, was called upon
and addressed the convention in an
able manner, showing how the people
of his section of the State secured a
company to take charge of and proceed
with the construction of the Chesa-
peake and Ohio railroad. He contended
that the people of this section had net
as many difficulties TO contend against
to secure the road as the people ef his
section had had to procure theirs. His
remarks were sensible and to the point,
and made good impression upon the
convention.
Short addresses were also made by
General r. S. Northcott, Colonel T. S.
Spates, Captain Piggott, Judge G. D.
Camden and others.
On motion, all the papers in this
State favorable to this enterprise were
requested to publish the proceedings OF

A CHOICE ROMANCE.

A Wood County Romance-A Pnrkers
burg MiiIiner Becomes II Million
airc.
Some years ago man, (whOse name
we withhold for prudential reasons was
blowing in his field in Wood county iu
this State, and whose dog had been an
noying both himself and his horses to
such an extent that he. picked up what
he supposed to be n worthless stone to
hurl at the dog, but upon Observing its
brightness and singular appearance as
it sparkled in the sunlight, he desisted,
and upon his return home he gave the
"bauble' to his children to play with.
As the story was related TO us, this
stone remained in. the family for sew
eral years, being knocked about by the
children, as o plaything, without any
one knowing or suspcCtinG its real
value. Persons visiting the house and
admiring its beauty, Clipped off pisces
Of it and carried them away, and no
one even imagined the real value of the
insignifcantstone whilst the original
finder of this source of unknown wealth
and his family become reduced i'll cir
cumstance9.
About two years ago agentleman who
was a connOiseur in stones happened to
be at the house and observed the stone.
He pronounced it TO be valuable, and
proff'ered to take it to New York for the
purpose of having its real value ascer.
tanned. 1t was taken to New York aud
subsequently TO Europe, and informa-
tion has recently been received that it
is the most valuable diamond that has
ever been discovered in the world, and
that its value is estimated at millions
of dollars.
One of the heirs to this valuable
legacy is now q milliner at ParkeTs-
burg, and another has been residing in
this place until within the last few
days, and has just started off on 4 mat
rimonial tour-his blushing bride little
imagining what a precious jewel she
had carried to her bosom.
We have simply related the story as
it was told to US, without any attempt
to color it.
If this should prove really true, who
can estimate the value of the hills and
vallies of West Virginia :
The Clarksburg Telegraph, from which
we copy the foregoing, has displayed
admirable prudence in embodying an
"if" in its concluding sentence.

BLIGHTED HOPES.
The Newark Heiress"-Searchin hi n 9 in
Warn for 100000.

A month or six weeks agoit was an
nounced in the Herald, on the authority
of several respectable German residents
of Newark, New jersey, that yOung
married woman, named Nuber, of
Springfield avenue, had, through the
violent death of an uncle, been sudden
ly elevated tn considerable wealth
from 100000 to 100000, it was stated.
The case was properly Investigated By
several German real estate men aud law
yers, and the truth of the statement
seemed so certain that Mr.. Frangest
Beck, well-known real estate broker,
in order to secure the money TO the poor
people, started for Europe, taking the
Nubers with him. On Saturday, another
real estate agent of repute, Mr. +. j. D.
Rumpf, friend of all parties, received
letter from Germany which stated
that no! only was the whole story little
more than q hoax, but that Or. Nuber
found there an illegitimate child born
by his wife previous to her marriage, its
father being Mr.. Nuber's uncle, when he
died, left the child the few hundred
dollars he was possessed of. Mr.. Beck
has, however, not yet been heard from,

Anather RxplRnation.

The Intelligencer devotes itself almost
daily to showing that the troops
brought into this State to enable the
Radical party to carry the next cleo
tion, were not procured by Governor STE
vENsoN. On Saturday it explained 10
the Providence Journal that they were
sent at the ius:ence of Senator BORE
MAN. The Wellsburg Herald gives &C.
casion for repeating the explanation.
That paper says:
At any rate, Governor Stevenson, on
the spot, was so fully impressed with
the evidence in the case, that on his
application, Q company of United States
soldiers has gone under orders, into the
disturbed district, as is stated, merely
to assist the civil officers in the dis
charge of their duties, making arrests,
&c.
Here is another opportunity for the
intelligencer to repeat its apology for
STEVENSON and it's assault upon BORE
NAN. 1t has long loved to serve the
former and b!aCkguard the latter, and
it woRld seem that the introduction of
these troops has afforded it a coveted
chance to attach the responsibility
for their presence to the foruer
Governor, against whom while Gov
ernor it never Jared snarl. 1t
clearly appears that STEVENSON and
his organ have already gotten
suficiency of this military business
Having started tie matter originally
for the purpose of making capital, apd
having found their project more dam
aging to themselves than any one else,
they writhe, squirm, protest and ex'
plain with q vim that is the more
amusing to others because the case is sc
serious to themselves. The latest
dodge is to throw the blame on BORE
MAN. The wellsburg Herald offers q

A Pembina letter of March 9TH, gives
the particulars of the execution of a
man named Scott. at the time the
Schultz party were captured, about
mid-winter, this Scot, a Canadian, was
of the party. 1t was said he had been
released on parole at the time Mayor
Boultons and Shuttle were camped at
Scottish Church, and Scott joined Boul'
tons and Schultz on the same evening
of his release. A few days thereafter,
when BoultonS command was cap
tured, Scott was tried, found guilty and
shot, in front of Fert Garry. All quiet

Tache had arrived. There is no doubt

the acquisition of San Domingo as a
part of his Cuban policy and Cuban
sympathizers are all coming over to the
support of the treaty. In diplomatic
circles there is much excitement and
very bitter feeling against the treaty.
1t is also stated that in case the requis-
