THE PEOPLE REJOICE
The Ringers of the Bells.

We like music; we always did; from
the full diapason of grand pipe organ
to the sweetsuggestive strains of a din
ner-horn in harvest time. We have
been known, on day when our nerves
were particularly strong, to stand un.
moved while our tympanum was be-
ing bethumbed by the melody of the
st. Clair gong. Imagine then our &C.
stacy on Friday last. Downing agreed
to terms and signed the pledge, where
upon this triumph of temperance was
celebrated by the liveliest ringing of all
the bells in town-hells that call to
church, bells that call to school, bells
that call to court; last and least, but far
more numerous, bells that cali to din
ner. These last were merrily yanked
out of the front doors by smiling dam
Isels who couldn't venture further in
the attire in which they had just been
discussing the breakfast dishes, or with
out an interview with the looking
glass. Goodnature seemed at a pre-
MUM. Everybody's conntenance was
longest the short way. In fact there
could not have been more evident signs
of rejoicing if King Whisky were real
ly dead and buried. Few of our citi-
zens would fail to cast in clod, or
something heavier, to keep the old
Moloch Diabolos Alcohol from resur-
recting.
AT night there was Union Prayer
Meeting, and after it-though not at
all under the same management dis
play of fireworks only second to that
which signalized the triumph of the
whisky candidate for Mayor.

WE take pleasure in calling the at
tention of our readers to the new ad-
vertisement in this paper, of the enter
prising Hardware dealer, John Ham
mond, Esq, Bridgeport. Mr.. II. oc-
cupies two rooms in Holloway's Block
one as hardware store, and the 9TH
er as tin shop and manufaetory. A
peep into his stores last week eonvinc-
ed US that he is thoroughly conversant
with the wants of his business and has
provided fully for all demands in his
trade. He has tull line of house-fur-
nishing hardware, farming imple-
ments and builders stock, and makes
speciality of the celebrated Counselor
cook stoves, and also of the most ap-
proved Hay Rakes to which he invites
special notice. Country merchants and
persons wanting anything in the Hard
ware line will find it to their advant-
age TO call, and we assure them that
they will be dealt with fairly and hon.
estly, and receive goods at the bottom
prices.

Ohio City Window Glass Company
aft Martins Ferry.

We have had our attention called to
the above company which has been or.
ganized for the purpose of manufac,
turing window glass in its various
forms. The site is on the corner ol
Ohio and Avondale Avenues, in Clark's
addition to Martins Ferry, and en-
braces 250 by 230 feet in extent. 1t is
quite convenient to the Railroad and
river for shipping purposes. The Com
bahy has been but recently incorpo-
rated but already considerable part of
the capital stock, $4,000 is taken,
with constantly increasing subscrip-
tion. There is no question this il one
of the most promising enterprises offer
ing in the county, and parties seeking
employment for their money would
do well to examine the inducements
here offered for investment before look
ing elsewhere. The Company is or
ganized on the mutual protective prin-
ciple, the stockholders being largely
practical workmen, hence not interest
ed in that bane of industry, ''strike s."
of this number 40 experienced men
came from Pittsburgh, some others are
from Martins Ferry. The kind of
glass to be made by this Company is
very profitable, and has less competi-
ton here than other varieties, hence,
the value of the product is enhanced.
The Directors are VIM. Clark, Jas. A.
Gray, d. Park, Jr., DIR. West. T.
Sheets, James Barkly. Books for SUBJ
scription< are now at First National
Bank, st. Clairsville. There is also 100
acres of superior coal adjacent to this
Company's site which offers superior
to the enterprising. Mr..
Clark will make arrangements alto
gether satisfactory to any inclined to
take hold of this coal interest. Wesayl
go look at the glass and coal prospects.
