WErZEL COUNTY.
A Bad State OF Affairs Little
Choking Needed.

A correspondent Of the Moundsyille
Democrat, writing from New Martins
vile, Wetzel county, presents the fol-
lowing picture of affairs in some neigh-
borhoods in that county. 1t has been
suspected that the robbers who infest
the county are, in part at least, escaped
convicts from the peniteutiary. The
correspondent says:
"Mr. McCsy. of Tyler. near Middle
bourne, has been missing since the
evening of the ID iustg 1t 10 supposed
that be is murdered. He had been TO
the show at Sisterville on that day. aud
was last seen within q mile and half
of his house. He had come seven or
eight hundred dollars with him. Every
effort is being made to find the body.
No arrests have been made as yet, but
strict watch is being kept on certain
suspicious parties that reside near BY.
In appears that our county and the
county below us is being over-run with
band OF desperadoes. On last Sabbath,
in day light, two of those thieving
fiends robbed German citizen, while
in his house within three miles o. this
places on a stream called Doolin. We
have not heard what amount they OBJ
tanned. On yesterday (Monday,) an
other bold robbery wac committed near
our town. Two men went to the field
where a Mr.. Cox was working and
ordered him, under the penalty OF death 1,
to 20 with them to his house and de-
liver to them his valuables. They took
his watch and chain, with sixty-five or
seventy dollars, some money and cloth
ing. what amount we have not learned,
The fact is the farmers in this vicinity
are afraid to 20 to their fields to work,
least their houses are robbed in their
absence.
Being governed by late occurrences,
we think, although sorry to say il, that
our county stands now about as Jack
son county, Illinois, did when the Reno
brothers and their band infested that
locality. We cannot complain about
our county officers for they are doing
all that is in their power to arrest these
murderers and thieves, but what can
they do when every move made by the
officers is closely watched and the news
carried to these robbers by certain par.
ties that reside in our midst, We be-
lieve that it would be beneficial for
farmers and all good citizens to form q
vigilance committee. apply lynch
law on every occasion that an arrest
is made until every member Of this
thieving band is hung. We believe that
if the officers that compose our county
court would offer a rewaid sufficient to
induce men that make it q business to
detect euch villians, it would not be
long until our jail would be full Of
those thieves; il we can be better pro-
tected by paying a little more tax for
year or two let US do SO, and employ
detectives that can arrest them.

A Day I'm The Vatican.

Plus the Ninth rises at Elk in the
morning, alone and without aid from a
chamberlain, in spite OF his extreme
old age. Having performed biz medi-
tatiou, he rings Tor his chamberlain,
who watches in room adjoining his,
and proceeds to read his mass 10 the
pontifical chapel, assisted by his Grand
Almoner, Mgr. de Merode, Archbishop
OF Mitylens, and bis sacristan; Mgr.
Marierelle, Archbishop Of Porphiry
A quarter OF an hour later he takes a
light meal, receives Cardinal Antonelli,
opens his letters, gives audiences. At
half past eleven or at midday his
promenade begins. At two o'clock he
dimes, eating little and drinking Bor-
deaux wine, which the sisterbood Of
st. Joseph OF Bordeaux sends him. He
rests himself until about four on an ex-
tension chair. Then he receives the
cardinals, and religious ORDER; studies
the matters submitted to him.. At sev-
en-, the official receptions are opened
until nine o'clock; be goes to bed at
half past ten or eleven o'clock. He no

THE POLARIs MYSTERY.

The fate OF Captain HALL Is the COM
ing sensation. According to Steward
HERoN's account OF the Captains sick
ness and death, there was nothing re-
markable in either. EsoUMAUx JOE
and HANS CHRISTIAN, however, plumply
express their belief that HALL was poi
soned to death. According to them
HALL himself complained Of a burning
sensation in the stomach, and said he
had been poisoned. The relations be-
tween Sailing Master BURLINGTON and
HALL appear to have been as bad as
possible. The unanimous opinion OF
the party left on the ice, and brought to
Newfoundland on the T9ris, is that
BURLINGTON deliberately abandoned
them to their fate. Tyson says BUD.
pIyGroN is q scoundrel, and that he
vas DOVE on HALL because OF the lat
ter's honest determination to pass as far
north as possible. Even before these
statements public suspicion had been
excited that. if HALL had been in any
wsy the victim of foul play, it was ow-
inc more to his zeal than any thing
else. The case is q very serious one,
and there is no doubt that the govern
mept will slit it. 1t will not do to con-
denim Bupp1seroN and party on &c parfs
testimony, but there are bad looking
fso,u,es in the matter which require
explanation. Probably when the 70
l.ri, returns-if she ever does return
we can put this and that together anu
90. at the bottom OF the mystery.

GENERAL BoYNToN recently stated in
the Cincinnati Gazette that Senator
CAMERON only obtained his election to
the Foreign Affairs Committee OF the
Senate on the distinct understanding
that he was to Immediately resign. A
barren scsptre wss to be placed in his
hand. The Chicago Tribune does not
believe this version Of the affair. and
SAYS: Even go strong man as NOR
TON WAS unable to obtain the support
of a majority Of the members OF that
memorable caucus which deposed Sun
NER TO make way for CAMERON. But,
allowing the above assertions to be
true, how was it that the Republican
caucus this last session again made
CAMERON the chairman OF this respon-
sible committee And this same CAM
ERoN is one of the distinguished four
cbairmen whose medallions are to be
