The editors Of the Csbell County Press
are laboring under great mistake when
they assert that we congratulate the citl-
zens OF Guyando,te because they are going
to have depot on their side OF the river,
"as though the company were cheerfuly
bestowiug great boon upon her" On the
contrary, it is because the matter in dis
pute has been settled satisfactory t. all
parties; and we have always asserted that
Guyandotte ought to have depot on their
side of the river The interests of Guyar.
dotte and Huntington are identical, and
cannot be separated, and what little i'll
feeling or enmity mny have existed between
the two places, in the past, has disappeared

a Brass Band for Huntington.

To The Editor Of The Argus:
1t is time that the city OF Huntington
had hrars band. The necessity for it
has already been seen and ielt on more
than one occasion, and some action witt
reference thereto, ought To lie taken bv
onr citizens Mt once 1t is a fact that the
material tor first class band exists in the
clty,-many old band men being residents
here-and ifany proper steps were taken
could be organized successfully. The whole
question is purely one Of cost y liberal
subscription 10y the citizens towards the
purchasing instruments would insure the
organization of a band, and every man
subscribing would be amply repaid 10y the
additional amount OF business brought to
