An illustration of how fruitful OF dis
appointment it is to count juvenile fowls
before the process of incubation has been
thoroughly accomplished, occurred on
Market street, near l4th, last evening
4 little fellow about twelve or thirteen
wears old, was going home carrying a
large amount of collie concealed in the
rind of a huge watermelon. Congratu-
lating himself upon the pleasure which
he and his young brothers and sisters
would reap in demolishing it, when he
tripped over loose brick, the melon fell
to the pavement and the fragments were
more than bushel full. If a photo
grapher had been around he would have
said, "Never mind the position so long
as we can preserve the dear boys e1-

POSTAL MATTERs.-Among the rules
Of instruction to postmasters the follow
ing are interesting to the public. Postal
cards when once used cannot be resusel-
tated by penny stamp. A mutilatea
postage stamp loses its legal value ana u
worthless for postal purposes. Unoer
the decision of the Assistant Attorney OF
the Postofice Department, letter ad
dressed simply Box No. is presumed to
be for the renter of said box, and should
be placed therein. The number OF the
box is to be considered as a designated
place of delivery. =.
No steamboat or other vessel when
regularly performs trips on any post
route, or from any city town or place 10
any other city, town or place between
which the mail is regularly carried, snail
carry otherwise than in the mail any let
tiers or packets except such as relate TO
some part of the cargo, or suchas may be
inclossd in postage-stamped envelopes OF
proper denomination.

We heard it remarked that he managed
his cases with considerable adroitness.
Acc1pESr.-On Monday last team
belonging to Mr.. Jessie Lazier, OF Short

Girl, aged ten and twelve years, became
frightened and ran of, going down an
embankment some fifty feet. The boy
was severely injured about the head, and

The BOAT RACE.-Among those who
take an interest in aquatic sports, and we
are sorry there are not more in Wheel
ing, the single scull race between Bright,
of the Nail City, and Cocoran of the
Hegner boat clubs, which takes place
this afternoon, is all the talk. Accord
ing to the articles of agreement the race
must be rowed between the hours of
two and five o'clock, over what
is known as the upper course, from
near Martins Ferry to the suspension
bridge and return, which is three miles.
The race is for 5000. These having the
matter in charge will do everything pos
sibe to make the affair pass off satisfac-
torily.
The pool selling on the race drew quite
a crowd at the Opera House Saloon last
night. but there were not many buyers.
The hackers and friends Of the contest
ants were very chary about dipping in
deep, financially, which is strong in
dication that the men are evenly match
ed OF the pools that were sold, Cocoran
was the favorite.
