AN ITEM FOR SUSPICIOUS PEoPLE.--The
Wheeling, Va, Register says some eight or
ten years ago gentleman living in Wash
ington, Pa, put in an envelope and placed in
bureau drawer some two or three hundred
dollars in notes ON the Merchants and Me-
chanics' Bank of that city. When he went for
his money few days afterwards, he found
everything intact but the envelope containing
the money. That was gone.
His suspicious were directed to the only
person who could have had access to the
bureau and lie had the suspected mar arrest cd.
Nothing could be proved against the accuse l.,
and of course he was discharged. The matter
remained mystery until Monday, when the
owner of the missing money, while opening
the bureau drawer, observed something fall
into the drawer from the top. On examining
it he found it to be a portion Of the envelope
i'll which the money had been placed.
further search was rewarded by the
discovery of all the bank notes fastened to the
top ofthe bureau, where they had leen Sc
curely fastened to the varnisl for the many
years they had been missed They were sent
to this city on Tuesday forredemption. Every
apology and reparation was made to the in
digidual suspected, and who has been under
surveillance ever since the disappearance Of
the money.

S5S- The outrageous raid on Alexandria
Township, in the shape of bill to divide it
in the interest of a few, met with a Waterloo
defeat onrhursday in the Senate-getting only
votes ! The Republican County Committee
worked desperately for the unjust division.
They have heretofore been quite successful in
debating to the Legislature of their party,
but finally undertook too heavy a job in
trying to carry this bill over the heads OF
Alexandria's wide-awake young workers, who
don't know how to get beat! All honor to
them, and prosperity to the township they
have saved
So says the Clinton Democrat. The tout
rageous raid was a bill to divide the town
ship bya line running nearly east and west,
and making a new township which would be
doubtful as to its political complexion. The
syoung men" who worked SO hard to defeat
the bill, and who appeared to have more
influence with the Republican Senators than
the best men of the Republican party in this
county, are number Of old Democratic wire
pullers, who wish to put off dividing the
township (Which all agree is necessary until
Democratic legislature is elected, when they
propose to split the township in the opposite
direction and make two Democratic townships.
But we notice that Mr.. Hoppock has intro
duced a new bill, creating township ont of

on Wednesday evening of last week, at which
"a. large number of the relatives and friends Of
the scholars were present. The programme
was an excellent one and contained some
pieces of quite an unique character As
whole, it was decidedly the best school enter

it would be improper to make special mention

COUNTRY NEWSPAPERS.

1t is precisely in proportion that the
local press is independent and influential
and our citizens are fully informed that
the Republican party has been sustained,
and therefore to strike at the country
press would be in the nature of removal
of one of its main pillars.
The village paper has converted thous-
ands of youths into readers, writers and
thinkers, who would have been utterly
Indifferent to literature if they had not
chance to appear In print upon some To-
cal subject in their boyhocd or girlhood
years. A town without paper is non
entity; it is sleepy hollow without a
poet to usher it into fame. As soon as a
village becomes ambitious to attract it,
share of emigration, and to secure to its
citizens their share of political influence,
a paper becomes necessity, and good
paper has frequently brought insignif-
cant villages to the attention of the en-
tire country.
Strangers always judge the enterprise
and business prospects of Village by the
character of its papers. If its advertise.
ments consists chiefly of patent medicine
and other foreign advertisements, and
mortgage and chancery sales, it is notice
of "hands off," but il its columns are
we'll filled with interesting reading, local
items, have live home advertisements, the
verdict is at once, this must be live
place, just the home for an enterprising
and educated man.
One of the chief means to secure i'm
migration to new places is the sending OF
the village paper to acquaintances and
friends in the East. If the most enter
prising citizens of our Western villages
were to subscribe for several hundred
copies to be sent to former friends they
would secure a steady flow of most val
liable immigration.
It is true the reasons we have given
why the country press should be literally
supported, are only such as have occurred
to US all, and have probably been stated
in better form hitherto, but when this
great and benefcent interest is threatened
with adverse legislation, it is necessary
tonrestate the case.
