age, and
WHEREAS, Brother Handy was a
Charter Member at the institution of
this lodge in the year 1852, and has
ever since been an efficient working
member in his lodge, therefore
Res0EUed that his demise has created
in our lodge a vacancy which cannot

est of tha season. How many dinners
were seasoned with disappointment
and eaten at home? Good little chill
dren, who had gone to Sabbath school
SO faithfully, were kindly shut up all
day to read nice stories of pic-nics
away of in the forests. Round, chubby
faces assumed long proportions and
went to bed dreaming of the happy
romps they didn't enjoy on the glor-
ious Fourth. And other things-hand-
some buggies drawn by jaded horses
carrying whole loads of the young and
gay didn't picnic much either. Dap
per younggents sent consalotory regrets
to blushing damsels, and exacting
young wives look grieved at smiling
husbands, becaused it rained. We met
one who had read the Declaration of
Independence" We saw two or three
spiritless flags trying to do their best,
and now and then the dullness OF the
day was broken by a rusty discharge OF
some rusty fowling piece. We fear our
boys have lost their patriotism. Evena a
tin pan tied tothe tail of some one Ofthe
one hundred too many dogs in the vii
lage would have afforded some anus
ment. We could easily have sacrafced
one dog on that day. The band did no.

least was kept going most Of the day.
1t rained in the morning and rained in
evening and that is what was the mat

FROM what we learn of the Judicial
Convention of Thursday, it was quite
an effort. After continual groaning of
the mountain until ten o'clock at night
the mouse came forth and quiet was
restored. Four candidates were named
and received the following votes !:
Swaney 20; Alexander 13; Okey rs;
Collins 8. After 18 ballots Alexander
stood 21; Swaney 20 and Okey 81. The
closing vote was as follows: Alexander
IL; Swaney 10; Okey 4; Chambers 81;
Collins 1.
At the close of the Convention, some
good old soul was applying the balm to
Mr.. SwANEY by telling him that he
should be next Congressman. Swaney,
who knows how it is, quietly replied
that he stood no chance, for Chambers
would manage in some way to be a
when the Congressional NOM
ination was to be made.

COMMERCIAL REPORTS.
Pittsburgh Live stock Market.

5 PITTsBURGH, July 8, 1871.
CATTLE.-The offerings were about the same
as last week, and rather better in quality; the
whole number on sale footed up 80 cars. abcu
$40 head; of these Is cars were from Chicago; 8
cars from Ohio; cars from East Liberty, and
lOS head, or 6loads, from Washington Co. The
market opened moderately active but closed
dull with several odds and ends left over un-
sold, probably loads; there was o full average
attendance OF butchers, which is evident from
the humber sold, and in view OF the extreme
hot weather and abundance of vegetables and
fruits, which always tend to curtail the demand
for fresh meats, the market was all that could
reasonably be expected. Prices as compared
wi h last week, as general thing ruled lower.
particularly for the lower grndes; in butchers
stock there was little or no change; the latter
grade brought 6@6S, thelatter figure only being
reslized for extra-medium to good sold at $40
81, and common to fair, at 1905.
SHEEP AND LAMBs.-The oferinns were un-
usually large, footing up close on to lDOO head,
and with scarcely an average demand, sharp
concessions had To be made, in most Instances
to effect sales, and even then there were num-
Der left over unsold We should judge that
about three-fonrths of the entire number were
lambs, and the sheep as gederalthing wers of
the lower grades; The re was one bunch of extra
good sheep may be quoted at 5@515, and fair to
medium at 4@4%. Lambs sold all the way from
81 .5G@4sz9 head; one drover assured us that he
sold lambs to-day at So 7head, against 81 for ex-
actly the same kind last v eek.

AN interesting pen and ink quarrel is
on the tapis in Cincinnati. Resolu-
tions have been presented the Mayor,
asking for strict enforcement of the
Sunday laws, closing up Beer Saloons
and theatres on the Sabbath. Already
the Mayors efforts in that direction
have met with a determined opposi-
ton on the part of the German papers
and the contest between the city papers
wakes warm. The Germans claim the
right to drink beer openly and attend
the theatres as the English attend wor-
ship at the churches. The Church
going people don't like such immorali-
ty and offer their protest.

THE corner stone of the new Presby-
terian Church at Warnoek's Station
was laid on the 4th inst, in the pres
ence of a large number of people who
had assembled to witnessed it. After
prayer by the Rev. r. Alexander, a
tin box, six inches square, contain
ing a Bible, a Hymn Book, writ
ten papers sealed in a bottle, (giving a
brief account of the enterprise, a
list of subscription to it, the names
of the building committee, &C.,
the last issue of the following newspa-
pers, n. Y. Observer, Presbyterian,
Presbyterian Banner, st. Clairsville
Gazette, BELMONT CHRONICLE, a copy
of Sketch of the Presbyterian Church
in st. Clairsville, were deposited and the
corner stone laid over it. Addresses
were then made by Rev. r. Alexander
and Hon. r. E. Chambers, and after
prayer the services closed with the
singing of the Doxology,
"Praise God from whom all blessings now,"
And the Benediction.
This church is located near to the
Station, in full view of the Pike and the
Railroad, and when completed will be
an object of interest to many who go
that way. It is hoped to have it fin
ished at an early day and thus afford a
place of worship to those who live in
that neighb0rhood. Those immedi-
ately interested in this movement have
shown much zeal and liberality, and no
doubt their labor will be rewarded by
this church proving blessing to them
and their families in the future.

The Democracy in Belmont County
were never so badly disorganized as at
present. Complaints are openly ex-
pressed by prominent members of the
party and any attempts to reconcile
men to what they are compelled to dis
like will prove futile. The forcing OF
Objectionable candidates upon the MEM
bers of party for their support must
and will meet with that indignant re-
buke which cliques deserve. 1t is not
SO much the new departure from prin-
ciple as it will be to depart from sup
porting men personally objectionable
To voters.

REV. JAMES MoFFITT, son of Rev.
John Moffitt formerly of this place, but
now of Wheeling, preached in the
Presbyterian Church twice on last
Sabbath. The subjects chosen were the
Parable of the Great Supper and the
Baptism of Lydia and her Household.
His manner Of speaking is attractive,
His choice of language excellent and
his entire freedom from the extrava
gance in style usually Shown in young
speakers was commeIdable. What {
