YESTERDAY ELECTIoN.-The cleo
tlon held yesterday Tor the ratification
or rejectio Of the proposition o! APP
propriating 100000 for the paving Of
certain streets Of the city, was very
tame affair, considering the importance
of the matter at issue. Out Of vote OF
4 500 in Wheeling, only l,OO6 were cast
Yesterday. Two wards, the Seventh
and Eighth, gave majori,ies against the
appropriation, notwithstanding both
the above wards were to
be decidedly benefited by
the appropriation. The opposition
in the 7th ward, the Island, was caus-
ed by local quarrel, the people living
on Zane street and the immediate
vicinity voting against the improve
ment project because they thought Zane
street should have been the one 10 be
paved instead OF Virginia, as mentioned
IN the ordinance. Why the Slh ward
people should have opposed the appro-
priation is one OF those things mo
fellah can find out" The following is
the vote and result

NOTICE TO ADVERTISERS.
Hereafter ali bills for advertisements
In This paper will be collected monthly,
unless otherwise specified in contracts.

In Is said that there is movement
on foot among the congressman from
the south and west for II convention to
be held at st. Louis next fall, to take
into consideration the material ques-
tons affecting those sections. The call
for the convention will state that its
objects are to consider the questions of
tariff, cheap transportation, and the
improvement of the Mississippi levees.
This is intended to be movement
outside and independent of New En-
gland and New York, which Is becom-
ing to be regarded by the south and
west as antagonistc to their interests.
1t is not to be expected any legis-
lation will be devised ut this session
which will meet the demands of the
country on these questions, and they
propose to make ample preparation for
the next session of congress. 1t is
held by these gentlemen that neither
New York nor New England has any
interest in them, unless it be to loan
them capital, for which, as they allege,
they demand high rate of interest.
To use their own phrase, they propose
to devise means to take care of them
SclVSS. Ill IuiS hlONcIuouO lSpioiiCahS
and democrats are alike united, and it
il not improbable that before the close
of the present session call will be is
sued for the meeting of this convention.
1t Is intended to have an effect upon
the political canvas next fall, and will
meet some time before the November
elections. The movement is an inn
portant one and the wonder is that it
has been so long delayed Federal leg
islation has been controlled by the
eastern states for the past fifty years to
the great damage of the west and south,
which have been oppressed and plum
dered though they have the power to
relieve themselves. What the west and
south need is organization, and should
the movement ultimately secure this,
the proposed convention may justly be
regarded as the most beniticent that has
assembled in this country during the
present century. Sympathy for OPP
pressed weakness is noble emotion
but no people deserve or will receive it
who have the power to protect them
selves and fail to do SOL Courier-Jour-
nal.
