A Quaker Printers Proverbs.

Never sendest thou an article for
publication without giving the editor
thy name, for the name oftimes secures
publication to worthless articles.
Thou should'st not rap at the door of
a printing Office, for he that answereth
the rap sneereth In his sleeves and
looseth time.
Neither do thou loaf about, ask ques-
lions, or knock down type, or the boys
will love like they do shade trees when
thou leavest.
Thou should'st never read the copy
on the printers case, or the sharp and
hooked con rainer thereof, or he may
knock thee down.
Never inquire thou of the editor for
the news, for behold, it is his business
at the appointed time, to give it to thee
without asking.
1t is not right that thou should st ask
him who is the author of an article, for
his duty requireth him to keep such
things to himself.
When thou dost enter into his Office.
take heed unto thyself that thou dost
not look at what may be !, ing open and
concerneth thee not, for that is not
meet in the sight of good breeding
-.s' Neither examine thou the proof sheet
for it is not ready to meet thine eye,
that thon mayest understand. Fl
v Prefer thine home paper to any 9TH
err, and subscribe for it Immediately.
:. Pay for it in advance, and it shall be
well with thee aud thine.

ANOTHER OyE.-EIastic marble is
not as rare as was at first supposed
The Moundsville National says second
one has been dug from the ruins of the
Female Seminary at that place. The
Rochester, y. Y, Democrat, of January
Goth, has the following:
Oswego has slab OF flexible marble.
The Aieert;ser, in describing it, says
ut looks like an ordinary tombstone,
and was designed for one. Let its ends
rest upon two chairs, with no support in
the middle, and the middle will drop an
inch or two ont OF true line. Turn it
over and it will drop as far in the oppo.
site direction Stand it on the end and
seize the top with both hands and shake
violently, aud the centre OF the slab will
vibrate with sort Of 'chug, 'chug'
movement, yet the slab is perfectly
sound and has the appearance Of ordi-
nary Vermont marble, which it is.
This curious piece OF marble was found
in marble cutters yard in this city,
nearly thirty years ago. 1t was donated
to the Mechanics and Manufacturers
Association.as curiosity, and since the
dissolution of that organization has
found it's way to the Gerrit Smith
library building in this city.

Mill MEETING.-The company lately
organized for the purpose OF erecting a
nail mill in Wheeling or its vicinity,
held a meeting at the Guards hose
house, Centre Wheeling on Saturday
night. 1t was decided to locate the
works on William Clark farm, near
Martins Ferry, under the title OF the
Martins Ferry Nail and Iron Works
The capital stock Of the company was
fixed at $lj0000 The location Of the
new mill was made by a very decided
majority. We suppose this mill would
have been built on this side Of the river
had proper effort been made to sec:re
it, but Wheeling is so rich and has 50
much that it is not OF the least i'm
portance to her whether these manu'ac-
turing establishments come to her Or
not. If they come, well; il they go
somewhere else, well seems to be the
thought of our citizens This supine-
ness will not do. Our people must
wake up to the needs of the hour.
Next to having the mill in Wheeling,
we are glad Martins Ferry has got it
They are an enterprising people over
there and we rejoice in their successes.

Icy STDEwALEs.-The city authorities
are certainly very lax in the enforce.
ment OF the ordinance requiring snow
to be removed from the sidewalks as
soon as possible after it has fallen. In
many of our principal streets the snow
is allowed to remain until it has been
removed by old Sol. The snow will be-
come melted during the day, Will freeze
hard at night, and policemen, reporters
and other early birds are required to
walk very circumspcctly indeed as they
perambulate the streets AT an early
hour otherwise, they are liable at any
moment to hear something Irop. A
very short time spent IN shovehng
snow when it first falls would suffice,
and great danger to life and li,lb would
he averted. \ light fine Inflicted upon
propertv,holdera who DO not remove the
snow from the front OF their housee,
would probably bring abou, very de-
sirable results.

thought it might be all so. So thought

John Stein was the other. John

Improvement of the Ohio.

The meeting at the Council Chamber
on Saturday night was not large, but
was eminently respectable. 1t organized
by calling Thomas Sweeney Esqr to
the chair and electing o. S. Long Secre.
tary.
Mayor LETTERS stated that the meet
ng was called in accordance with the
wish expressed in a communication
received by him from Cincinnati in
relation to the Convention to consider
the matter Of improving the Ohio river,
to be held a. Cincinnati, on February
10Th next. This city, said the May or,
il entitled to five delegates and each
Insurance company in the city to one.
lie hoped that the meeting would
appoint its delegates that the Insurance
companies might be encouraged to ap'
point theirs.
Mr.. George T. Tingle was very sorry
to see such a small attendance and little
interest taken in the matter. He was
satisfied that the people do not fully
understand the matter. A strong petit,
ton to Congress he was satisfied would
be productive OF good.
The Chairman thought that there
should be a committee appointed to
wait on the citizens, and see if they
wanted to do anything in this matter,
and report to an adjourned meeting.
Mr. Reilly was surprised to see that
there was not a steamboatman present,
and more of the great manufacturing
interests represented. Had Wheeling
grown so great that she can get along
without the river or railroads? He
moved that when this meeting adjourn
it be to meet at the Court House on
Monday evening at the ringing Of the
Court House bell, which motion was
adopted.
Mr. Botsiord moved that the officers
Of the different Insurance companies
he requested to meet at the office OF the
National Insurance Company, on Mon,
day afternoon, at 3 o'clock, to consider
the question of appointing delegates TO
the Cincinnati Convention.
