The p. 6 c. Railroad Discriminate
Against baltimore in its Freight
Tariff.
From the Baltimore Evening Journal
Mr. EDITOR Il desire IS call atten-
ton through the columns of the journal
to the fact that the Pittsburgh and Con-
pellsville railroad, which was built by
Baltimore money. is pursuing a very un.
Just and unwise:policy in the graduation
Of its freight tariff. Contrary to the
dictates of common sense the officers OF
that road have so regulated their freight
tariff that the merchants OF Baltimore
cannot compete on equal terms with
the merchants Of Pittsburgh for the
trade of the region through which the
road passes. For instance, we can OBJ
tain lower rates from through ship
ment to Pittsburgh than we can to
Uniontown or Connellsville, Pennsyl-
vania. One of the heaviest dealers IN
in the former place has signified his de-
sire to buy here, admitting that he can
do much better in this market than he
can in Pittsburgh, yet the freight
charges are so uujustly graduated that
he can actually save money by having
them shipped through to Pittsburgh
and then back to Uniontown. But the
cost OF the goods is so much increased
by this operation that he still finds 1t
to his interest to purchase in Pitts
burgh. 1t may he very good thing
for Pittsburgh merchants to get such
favorable freight through from Balt!-
more to their city, and it may also IN
crease our business with that point, but
at the same time it cuts us off from the
great local trade which we had conf
IDENTIFY expected to do with the rich
country lying between Cumberland and
the Smoky City. 1t seems to us that
inasmuch as we contributed freely OF
our substance, and annually add addl-
tional fayors, to secure this great out
let" we certainly ought to be placed on
an equal footing with the merchants OF
our sister city, who, to say the least
have done no more than we have to-
wards the enterprise. We would like
very much to know where the fault lies
in this matter Is it in the Pittsburgh
office or in the Camden street Office?

GRANTS visit to Washington, last
week, is thus explained. After a hasty
breakfast he was among the early and
punctual visitors at the Treasury, to re,
ceive his salary, it being pay day. He
has now been absent exactly three
months, commencing with the first of
June, but proposes to remain away un-
til The beginning of October. During
this time he has drawn from the Treas.
ury $3.50, and has passed parts of
three days in Washington, or at the
rate OF one day per month, for which he
has received the compensation of$2OS3 a
day. In other words, General GRANT,
for signing his name during these rare
visits, has pocketed the wages of four
teen hundred laobring men, who work
ten hours and receive $3.50 each. So
that it is something to be President in
a practical point of view, when the in
cumbent gets $4,000 year for anus
ing himself, and is presented with bonds,
houses and horses to the extent OF half
a million. No wonder he seeks q re-
election.

QUEER LAwsUir.-A queer lawsui

QUEER LAwsUir.-A queer lawsuit
has arisen near Oshkosh, Wisconsin,
between a couple of Germans, owing to
the late storm. 1t seems that such was
the force of the gale that whole shocks
of wheat were taken up bodily and car
ried into an adjoining field. The own
er of the field claims the wheat by the
right of possession, while tie loser Of
the wheat claims he is short by a num-
Der of shocks. Neither one knows def
initely the number Of shocks he had
standing in the field prior to the storm,
but the loser thinks he has not as many
by six or eight, and sues for that num-
Der.

The Moundsville National seems to
have great difficulty in finding out
how Marshall county voted in the late
election. Itpow says that the majority
is 6l2 against the Convention. "Relia'
BILE" reports say the majority was 562'
1t is, perhaps. not too great stretch OF
probability to say that the Nationa!
may accidentally learn the exact result
between this time and next Christmas.
We are happy in having furnished the
National interesting matter for editorial
comment this week aud hope to find
that this paragraph has been similarly
received.

The Fairmont West Tiryinian calls
upon the Radical party to organize for
the election of delegates to the Conyen-
ton who will save us the expense and
trouble OF adopting new Constitution
By a!journing the organization ,eitLOm at
tempting to interfere rith that document
under which zoe hare prospercd in the past"
This would be very good way of de-
feating the Convention if it were posi-.
bic for the Radicals to elect their can
didates in about thirty Democratic
counties that gave majorities in favor OF
the Convention. That body will be
composed Of seventy-eight members, of
whom possibly fifteen or twenty may be
Radicals, and just how they are going
to manage to adjourn without making
any alteration in the present Constitu.
ton is little difficult to see. Suppose
the West Virginian makes little calcu-
lation on this subject and ascertains
just how much Of an anti.Convention
majority it can figure out. 1t may save
heap Of trouble. Begin with Marion

The Hotel Keepers in Morgantown
are at war with the Town Council
The Council required Of them a bond in
the penal sum Of $500 that they would
not retail liquor, which the landlords
refused to give; and on Monday, the
first day OF the term of the Circuit
Court, by common agreement, the
Hotels closed their doors and refused to
entertain guests A good deal of con-
fusion and inconvenience to the public
was the result, and the boarding houses
and private residences OF citizens were
taxed to their utmost capacity to pro-
vide accommodations for travellers. At
last accounts the Hotels were still shut.

A FEW reasons why they should have the
IA preference over all others:
IL Wheeler Wilson's Sewing Machine Ia
much simpler than any of the others: re-
quiring less than half the amount OF ma
chinery. 4!-e
2. As the result of this simplicity, this ma .
chine Is much less liable than the others to
get out of repair.
8. ANOTHER reeult of this simplicity is
greater durability.
4. Another result is less friction, and. con.
sequently, creator ease and rapidity OF mo-
lion, with less noise. g
8. And greatest Of all, that it nees no Shut.

machine that has justly, fairly and honora-
bly, won Reputation and independence
against strong and bitter competition. For

MOsby's Men.

We heard a great deal during our late
civil war about the exploits of Mosby' S
men. 1t appears that some of these gay
cavaliers have turned up again, "Olivia, ="
MRS. Emily Briggs the Washington
correspondent ofthe Philadelphia Press,
gives the following lively description of
the part some of Mosby's men played in
the late carnival in that city:
The report of gun announces the
opening of the tournament. Three
scahiolds have been erected at equal dis
tances apart, and dangling from each
is ring suspended from q cord. The
avenue between the scaffolds is thickly
covered with sawdust. Thirty-four con-
testants have entered themselves on the
roll of honor, and intend competing for
the prize. Success depends upon taking
the rings on the point OF the lance when
the horses are flying IKE the wings
of the wind. Never, since the days
of the Black Knight of Iyanhoe, has
a victory been so gallantly won. 1t is
true the men who entered the lists were
largely composed Of what used to be
called Mosby's men" but this is moth
ing to do with the days sport. 1t is
enough to make the blood tingle to see
these fellows in doublet hose and heron
feather riding as no other men in the
country can, mounted on their slim, long
horses with bony heads and huge eyes.
As they madly dash over the tourna-
ment ground horse and rider seem one
Think as we will, there is an air of chiy-
airy and dignity that surrounds these
naughty Virginians and Marylanders,
and they look every inch like real
knights of the tournay called out of the
dust of the fifteenth century"

A Gallant Confederate.

We publish the following from the pen
of General D. II. Hill, editor of the
Southern Home, Charlotte, North Caro-
lima. An eyewitness says that the
meeting between the General and Cap
tain Randolph was touching in the ex-
treme:
CAPTAIN LEWIS RANDOLPH. I'VE were
shocked to find at the depot in Char
lotte, this famous scout of Lees army,
dying of consumption. He has been
spending some time at Aiken, South
Carolina, and was trying to reach his
home in Virginia, to die there. Captain
Randolph is the great grandson of Pres
ident Jefferson, and nephew of General
G. W. Randolph, late Confederate Sec
retary of War. He inherited the stall
wart figure, the iron constitution, and
the great physical strength of the JEFF
fersons. He always selected the dark
est, coolest, and most inclement nights
for his visits to the enemys camps.
Many of his perilous adventures ex-
celled the widest incidents of fiction.
General Lee gained from him much of
that information which so often baffled
and confused the enemy's plans.
Zone of the most terrible nights we
remember to have known, Captain Ran
dolph crossed the Rappahannock below
Fredericksburg and went into Burnside's
lines. After weeks absence he came
back with full knowledge of the strength,
position and plans of the Federal Gene
ral-him with the powerful field glass
General Bradley 7. johnson mentioned
in his report of second Manassas, that
the Confederate line in the railroad cut
got out of ammunition and fought the
enemy with rocks. On this occasion
Captain r. struck a man on the fore
head and killed him instantly. This was
one of his many marvellous feats of
strength. To think of such man dying
of consumption The once gay, light
hearted, chivalrous athlete dying of con-
sumption-dying, but talking sweetly of
his Saviour, and joyfully Of his hopes of
a blessed Immortality.

A TaImudic Legend.

A prince once said to Rabbi Gamaliel:
Your God is thief; he surprised Adam
in his sleep; he stole rib from him.
The Rabbi's daughter overheard the
speech, and whispered 3 word or two in
her fathers ear, asking his permission
to answer this singular opinion herself
He gave his consent.
The girl stepped forward, and feigning
terror and dismay, threw her arms aloft
in suppication, and cried out; Ny
liege, my liegel Justice ReVengel"
What has happened2 asked the
prince.
A wicked theft has taken place" she
replied. A robber has crept secretly
into our house, carried away a silver
goblet, and left gold one in ITS stead.
What an upright thief exclaimed
the prince. Wouldthat such robberies
were Of more frequent occurrence.
Behold then, sire, the kind Of a thief
that our Creator was; He stole a rib from
Adam, and gave beautiful wife instead. ="
