pages, and gives an elaborate review of
the administration OF the State finances
since the installation OF the present Gov

lleve other than the fearful truths that
stare us in the face that the bonds and
stocks printed by the American Bank
Note Company, amounting to $99, $40, 900,
represent tho liabilities OF the State, for
which the faith or credit Of the State,
however unlawluIIy presented, had been
pledged for the payment of the contingent
liability incurred by railroad endorsement

clusion, the report says the committee, In
view OF the atroCity OF these disclosures
Of tho work Of the present administration
or rather ring composed Of leading olll-
GERS of the government of the State, un-
hesitatingly say the Republican party,
which elevated them to power, must show
its condemnation Of such treachery and
knavery by immediate and united efforts
by Legislative enactments as well as by
every other deliberative measure, to bring
to justice those who have prosttutod the
authority with which they have been
clothed, and so llagrantly and crlminSlly
impcrilled the trusts to them conaded.

WHEELING NRwsPAPRRs.-Wheeling
contains u population OF something in the
neighborhoOd OF 25,0O0 people. For q
city of It's magnitude and importance, II
contains but two newspapers. Both OF
these are cOnsummate old logies, and con.
sequently have very little influence upon
the public sentiment, considering the in.
tluence at their disposal. A live, wide.a.
wake, and enterprising newspaper, Is
what Wheeling sadly needs, Of which fact
the old residents are not only aware, but
1t Is readily observable 10 the stranger
who first glances OF the concerns which
now profess 10 represent the business ener.
gy and commercial importance OF this
splendid centre Of trade. Such q newspa.
per would put one hundred thousand dol.
lals into the pockets OF the merchants and
business men Of the city, in one years
time, besides being prOportlonately nd.
vantageous to tho peCunlary interests Of
such an establishment planted in It's midst,
as a part and parcel Of the local interests
ofthc communlty.-MOHndsuilb National.
How would 1t do for our friend to move
up here with the Mationall That would
wake things up hero II anything would.
We have long thought it was a great
waste of sweetness on the desert air for
such an editor TO publish such paper in
such place as Moundsville, when such
opportunities TO achieve fortune and lamc
were going to waste up here. The Ma.
GOnaI would Ill the bill exactly. One of
It's articles on the weather would be worth
"a hundred thousand dollars" and in
three weeks there wouldn't bo an old fogy
leIt-they would juat laugh themselves to
death over the Nationals leaders.

MY DEAR SIR: have yours of the 14Lh
inst. l have no doubt that the policy you
suggest Is that which your party ought to
adopt. They should have run Salmon p.
Chase in 1868. Then, as the result
Of that contest, the return Of
genuine peace and thrift would
have been promoted. That policy
gave you more last year in Missouri than
could have been achieved by party tri-
umph. You only err as to the proper
candidate. I am not tho man you need.
Your party Is mostly free trade, and am
ierocious proteCtionisL Ihave no doubt
that might be nominated and elected
by your help, but 1t would place us all in
false position. If !, who am adversely
interested, can sec this, / am suro your
good sense will, on reflection, realize It.
You must take man like Gratz Brown,
or Trumbull, or Gen. Cox, late Secretary
of the Interior, and thus help to pacify
and reunite our country anew.
Yours,
SIgned HORACE GRRELEY.

CHRIsTMAs IN THE CITY.--.This great
festival was very generally observed in
this city. Appropriate religious services
were held in the Catholic and Episcopal
churches. The weather was very fine
too fine, II there Is anything in the old
saw which says "agroen Christmas makes
a fat graveyard The sun Shone out
brightly and warmly, and We do not re-
member TO have ever seen 30 many per.
sons on tho streets on any occasion.
From early in the morning until night
the sidewalks on the principal thorough.
fares were crowded with persons going to
or returning from places Of public resort.
A most lamentable feature Of the day was
the large number of intoxicated
individuals who circulated without Let or
hindrancc, wheresoever they listed. And
Il was a matter OF very general remark
that 80 many oil those who were drunk
were boys ranging from ten to fifteen
years old, The proportion OF this class
under the influence oI strong drink was
unusually large, and afforded a subject
OF serious consideration to those who feel
an interest In the character Of The next
reneration. Some means should DO In
augurated at once to rescue the youth Of
the city from the maelStrom Of intemper.
anCo.
80 far as We heard there were no casll-
alties of a serious nature. One Of slight
character Is mentioned in another para
graph. Several lads had their fingers
scorched with tlrecrackers; the eye lashes
of few others were singed. The firing
Of pistols and setting of Juvenile fire
works was very well maintained through
out the day In direct violation ol The ordi
nance made and provided" in relation
thereto and to the great danger Of those
who attempted to pass along the streets
with horses. This thing should bo stopped
and we trust that another year will see II
abolished, never to be ro.inaugura!cd.
