Police CoURT-There was not much
of interest before the police court ycster-
day morning.
A boy named Christian Walters, who
is about as hard a christian as one
would wish to see, was arrested IN the
Second Ward Market house Thursday
night, beastly drunk. In default Of
paying 81 and costs he was sent 10 the
geological school. We fear this young
man has taken his first degree, and will
ere long be advanced to the position OF
regular fusileer. This is his second
term in the geological school within the
month.
Mary Mcmahon was found near the
corner of Main and Monroe streets,
Thursday night, in a sad way She
had not only skinfull of fusil oil, but
a bottle full in her pocket. She also
had black eye, leading us to believe
that Mary had had little lam over the
eve from some kind friend. In default
Of paying 81 and costs, she will sojourn
at Castle Kennedy for the next ten
days.
The charge Of disorderly conduct pre-,
ferred against James Phillips, Will be
heard next Monday.

COMMERCIAL CoNvENTloN.-Mayo,
LETTERS has appointed Col. Thayer Mel
vim to represent the city of Wheeling in
the Commercial Convention to be held
in Baltimore on Monday next. Each
of our manufacturing establishments
was entitled to a delegate, we under
stand, but we have not heard that either
of them has made an appointment OF
delegate. NJ. Reilly, Esq, was ap
pointed by the Governor to represent
the First Congressional district in the
Convention.

AWARDED THE FIRST PREMIUM
Henry Grinnell & Co., of Wheeling
West Virginia, received the first premi.
UNI ribbon on their patent nail key
manufactured by them-at the Great
Union Fair held in this city last week
These kegs keep nails entirely protected
from water while undergoing tranship.
ment, and the fact that they cost no
more than the old style, rickety, leaky
keg must commend them to manufac-
turers to the exclusion OF all other
shipping packages. This is an age OF
improvement, and the Waters barrel,
manufactured by the Michigan Barrel
company, and the Wheeling nail key,
manufactured by Henry Grinnell & Co.,
are destined to rank first in the future
for shipping purposes, and unless the
old-fashioned barrel and nail keg are
photographed BY some admirlng friend
their existence will soon have passed
from the memory OF man, and placed
upon shelves set apart for the fossils Of
the past-Grdnd Rapids Democrat.

CHRrsr,As CoNvENrroN.-A special

CHRISTIAN CONVENTIONAL special
committee OF the Young Mems Chris
tan Association have been issuing cir
culars to clergymen and active laymen
throughout the State, in order to ascer-
tain their views on the subject Of con-
yention of ministers and members of
the different denominations, to compare
views on Christian work, and to create
sympathy and harmony. As soon as
enough favorable responses are received
a call will be issued and the convention
held at some convenient point. Eff

OF the land will be invited, and most
interesting time is looked forward to.
We will try to keep our readers posted.

GONE TO GRAFroN.-Joseph Schell
whose arrest, on a charge of burglary,
we have already mentioned, was taken
to Grafton. last evening, by an officer,
sent from Taylor county, for that pur'
pose. We had a talk with 'Schell at
depot. He freely confessed the robbery
to us, as he had before to Squire john
ston. He says that Levi Reed "put up
the job" Of robbing the store in Graf
ton, and that he and Schell and man
(named Lily did the work. He fur
ther stated that Reed was at work in
the railroad shops at Piedmont, and
that he sent for Schell to join him in a
regular expedition. Reed prepared the
necessary burglar tools, and the two
started. They went to Morgantown,
and made two attempts there, which
were unsuccessful. They then went to
Grafton, and there attempted to rob a
jewelers. store, but some noise, in the
drug store, next door. frightened them
off. They then went to the store, for
the robbery of which they are arrested
and, finding an ordinary lock on it,
they obtained an entrance by unlocking
the door with a pick-lock. Schell had
on him a coat and pantaloons made OF
the cloth stolen from this store. He
gives an explanation OF several robberles
committed in this city, a year or SO ago,
while Reed was on the police force, and
says Reed knew all about them, and
shared the spoils. He, also, says that
while Reed was on the police force, he
and Schell and a man named Mckee
were engaged in the manufacture OF
bogus nickel five cent pieces, making
them out of block tin, nickel and some
other substance, at Reeds house. Schell
says he IS determined to make clean
breast Of it. He blames Reed with his
arrest, and will have his revenge.

SroT on THE SUN.-There is now a
large, pear-shaped spot on that side Of
the sun which is turned toward us. 1t
is about 10000 miles in diameter,
which is equal to three-quarters of a
minute of arc; equal to the angle sub
tended by 49, inches at the distance OF
one mile from the eye. 1t is very
good test of the vision, through smoked
glass, requiring an eyesight of a little
more than the average penetration to
see it without@ maguifer. The spot
is a little to the left and about the same
distance below the apparent centre of
the solar disc. -E.n#--

CHlLDRENs HoME.-The Directors
and Managers OF this institution have
been keeping so quiet during the warm
weather, that we fear the benevolent
public have not been doing for the Home
what they otherwise might have done.
The quiet, however, has not come from
inactivity, but rather from too great
backwardness on the part OF the lady
managers, who seem to fear the praise
OF men, Our readers will be glad to
learn that the Home is growing in eff
cheney, and the children there gathered
in favor with the people. Several OF
the children have been adopted into
good families, and at the recent meeting
of the Managers, applications were read
from quite a number Of persons in Ohio
and Pennsylvania, asking for children
to make their own, Thus the insti-
tuition is carrying out its blessed design
of furnishing homes for the homeless
and friends for the friendless, and at
the same time keeping careful watch
over those intrusted to it. As the win
ter approaches, the Home will need to
