/ Christmas and the holiday week pas
led pleasantly. There was no rowdyisn
Ior drunkenness. and every one behaves
| in a civil, orderly manner. The usua
lamounts of dead turkey and oyster
were consumed. The trundle-bed POI
ton of the community rejoiced owe
well filled stockings, and the occasion
al "bustinga of q chinese fire-cracke
was all that marred the repose of nerv
Gus people. Since the disturbing ele
ments have been removed Cur villag
has become one of the most quiet ant
orderly. The absurd custom of obsery
| ing halloween, and the belling or ser
enading of newly married persons ha
also become absolete.
The Independent Curnet Band" ap
peared on our streets Saturday, anC
treated our citizens to musical feas
by playing for their enjoyment som'
of their favorite selections. "Whispel
Waltz" was the peoples favorite, an,
all the music played was highly appre
riated. This band is composed of NOR
al, temperate gentlemen, and their or
ganization cannot but prove colnplet'
success.
Since the thaw the mud is rising
radidly, and high top boots are in de
mand.
THE "HOME BRINGING" ."-On Thurs
day, December 26, Mr.. Nicholas B. Sne
deker returned with his young and
handsome bride. They were escorted
by a gay and festive party from Bel.
laire City, and a number of guests were
invited to welcome them home. After
the greetings were over a sumptuous
repast was spread, and partaken ol
with relish by all present. The cook
ing was superior and the reception ar
rangements perfect. The clergy was
represented by Rev. w. S. Moffitt. who
was accompanied by his wife, and OF
the military we noticed Gen. Plenty,
Gen. Enjoyment, and Gen. Hilarity,
who, fortunately passing, We're with
the guests during the convivial party
of the evening. Had toasts been the
order all present would have cheerfully
drunk to, "Many happy returns of the
same" During the evening the fol-
lowing was proposed and drunk stand
ing 1.-THE beautiful bride; may she
prove her husbands good angel on
earth, and attain to be one of Gods
bright angels in Heaven" Response /:
-fIf God will, God Wot." The par
ty separated well pleased with the en-
tertainmert.
Vickers' Enterprise did come off at
the time appointed. Some of our citi-
Zens rejoice in the possession of various
five cent prizes, for which they paid in
money value from one to two dollars.
One youth from Flushing lodged in
our town on his return from the draw
ings. He had lost two days time at
one dollar per day,-one day in reach
ing the scene of operation, another in
in front of a physicians Office
during the hours of drawing, with the
at zero, another day in
reaching his home again. In return for
one dollar cash, los of three days at
one dollar per day, two dollars eXpens-
he received a pair of green
glass buttons worth about two cents.
He returned the buttons by mail, cost
five cents, and informed the manager
that he must have made a mistake, as
he thinks he sGrawed a horse" We
rather think he did.

Two weeks zoo we made q correct-

Two weeks ago we made a correct
ion Of the amount of fees, costs, &C., in
the hands Of Clerk Campbell, VIII ich the
laws says shall be paid into fhe County
Treasury. We changed the amount
from 5000 to $500 and we hadI good
authority for so doing. The antiquated
Individual who controls the Gazette but
who seldom edits it, denounees our
correction as an unmitigated falshood.
We have hope of convincing
| him to the contrary, since the dotage of
man cannot comprehend facts, and ig-
nores reason. The day is past, thanks
to the order of things, when the ST.
Clairsville Gazette can covor up and
shield from public scrutiny and public
punishment, the fnisdoings of the Off
GERS by whose patronageit has lived.
The scepter has departed and the peo-
pie have registered their VOW for re-
form. Seeing that these things are true
we feel some reluctance in continually
parrying the feeble thrusts ofwhat will
die, if well let alone. Since making
the above correction Clerk Campbell
has paid into the treasury over S210O
and we are glad to record the fact that
he has acted promptly in the affair.
We have no wish to calumniate any
officer and willingly give any one due
credit for doing his duty. We wish
Mr.. Campbell all the honor of success
fully closing up his official work, and
shall be happy to chronicle the fact, but
if hereafter any disclosures shall not be
in his favor, he need expect no favor
from us. We say that he has paid in
g, III, 90 fines, costs and forfeited re-
OF this 81, ,230 belongs to
the County and is not to be repaid.
1887 if it belongs to witnesses and have
be repaid from the treasury at cost to
the county of perhaps 10 per cent. The
law says that it shall be paid into the
treasury at the end of a certain time
and also provides for its distribution.
Now, if our officers would be willing to
let the law takes its course the people
will be satisfied. Two much public gen.
erosity is suspicious.

THE PARTY.

On last Thursday evening the 18th
ult., the writer had the pleasure of at.
tending party given by Mr.. and Mrs.
Conrad Troll. By nine o'clock the
spacious apartments of their hand
some residence were filled by the ELITE
of St. Clairsville and all anticipated a
happy evening and they were not dis
appointed. The Host and Hostess
seemed to be omnipresent, continually
vying with each other for the happi-
ness and comfort OF their guests. The
I0iLettes of the evening were as var
ious as they were numerous, and
though a full description of all would
be impossible, yet few may be given.
Miss a. was handsomely attired in col
ored silk, white tarleton overskirt,
Miss II. in blue silk, white tarleton ov-
erdreSs. Mrs. C.looked radiant in light
colored silk deeply corded, white vaIen-
eienne overdreSS. Mrs j. appeared to
great advanta ,e in light colored silk,
court train. Where so many Bellies
reigned the writer does not feel at liber-
ty to designate any particular one as
the Belle of the evening. Bright eyes
and bewitching forms confronted you
at every turn, and if there was an an
chOrite present he forswore celibacy
from that evening. Shortly after ten
O'Clock Col. II. marshalled the forces
for a grand eltree into the supper room.
The table was marvel of wonder and
beauty to behold, and fairly groaned
beneath the weight of the most elegant
delicacies, while there seemed to be a
perfect underground railway furnish
ing the more solid refreshments from
another quarter. Having satisfied the
innerman, dancing became the order
Of the night. The music being furnish
ed by Signors SINCERE and Buffing-
tonic who acquitted themselves with
great credit. The light fantastic toe
was INDUCED in by fair portion of the
elder, and by nearly all the younger
members of the party, and was con-
tinued until the small hours had far adj
vanced. Not wishing to be late for
breakfast the writer forced himself
away, as the last dance was formed,
satisfied that all of the appointments
were of the first order, and the whole
affair brilliant success.

The location OF the Wheeling and
Tuscarawas Valley Railway is yet a
matter of considerable doubt. Up
Wheeling creek is undoubtedly the
most feasible route, and with the excep-
tion of the cost oftunneling and bridg-

cost on other routes, the way via New
Athens has superior advantages to any
other. We hope to see the road under
contract in a few months, and are, of
course, in favor of having it as near
our village as possible. Will our citi-
zens extend any substantial aid to its
location up Wheeling creek?
