We learn from the Spirit Of JET
ferson that on Thursday of last
week, application was made to
Judge Hoge, then holding special
term of the Circuit Court at
Charlestown, for a mandanaus di-
recting the assessor Of the county
to grant license for the sale ofspir-
itous liquors TO DR.. O. H. Owlngs
and George w, Thomas, of Charles
town, the County Court having
refused them license. The Judge
refused to grant the prayer of the
petitioners and sustained the ac-
ton of the County Court. He de-
livered an elaborate, thorough and
convincing opinion, showing
clearly that the power to grant or
refuse license had been delegated
to the County Court, and that only
chartered cities were the exception
to this rule.

Mr.. G. Nj. Ireland, who resides
at White Oak, in this county says
the Richie Gazette, informs us
of a natural curiosity at present
growing on his place. An apple
tree is filled with apples of good
size, and in the end of each apple is
peach blossom. Fruit and bios
som upon a tree at one time, not
connected, would be somewhat I'M
usual, but this of which we write
is very singular. We never heard
of anything of the kind before and

In your issue of the 10th. inst,
l noticed a card from eX- Mayor
Shut, calling upon the City Coun-
Gil to publish statement of the
financial condition of the city
treasury. This is move in the
right direction, not only to vindi-
cate the administration of Mayor
Shut, but the taxpayers of our
city are anxious to know how and
where their money has been ex-
pended, and are DESTROYS of know
ing the condition of the city
finances. During the past year ex-
tensive improvements have been
made by the corporate authorities
of our city-completing water
works, grading streets, &C., &c.
And for what is done let them
have, their need of praise but it
is due the people that the Council
publish detailed statement of its
expenditures SO that our people
may know what it has cost to
grade and put In condition each
separate street. and that if the
treasury of our city has been "gut-

our people directed by their votes
to, be expended in repairing our
streets is not exhausted, would it
not be, well for our city fathers to

The Board of Trade.

A great deal is being said pro
and CON about the objects and
purposes of the Board of Trade of
Martinsburg. The Board of Trade
is simply an association Of mer-
chants and business men, for the
promotion and mutual protection
of their interests, just as.the trades
unions are for the promotion of
the interests of various branches
of mechinics; just as the oranges
are for the protection of the inter
ests of the agriculturists, the Lo-
comotive Brother hood of Engi-
neers or Conductors is for the pro-
lection of its members and the
advancement of their mutual in
terests. The Board of Trade is not
organized for war on any hon
est man. In act it is the friend
of the honest man-no matter how
poor he be-and will always lend
him a helping hand. The Board
of Trade simply proposes to draw
a line of demarkation between
honesty and dishonesty-that is
all. For instance, a poor, but hon
est man, has gotten behind, from
sickness or some cause over which
he had no control. The merchant
with whom he deals, knowing
the circumstances, never thinks of
reporting such man. In fact such
man will find no better friends,
i'm his hour OF need, than among
the members of the Board of
Trade. They will reward his hon
esty and help him on his feet.
But the man who runs bills here,
there and every where, who new
er comes up to any of his promises
who gives you no satisfaction
when you ask him for money, but
leaves you and goes and runs bill
some where else, only to act in the
same way with every man who
trusts him, these are the men that
the Board of Trade proposes to
protect themselves against. The
merchant cannot afford to give
away Iris goods, and the one who
persists in doing it will soon be
forced to close up his store. The
Board of Trade is now thrOughly
organized. 1t means to pursue a
straight forward, honorable course.
1t will stand by all honest men,
and it will not be moved from its
purpose by any efforts on the part
of the dishonest The Board of
Trade will protect and aid the
honest man no matter how rich
or how poor he may be--bnt it
will protect itself against all dis
honest men. The honest man
can deal with his merchant on
the same terms he has always
done heretofore. The Board of
Trade is his friend. But the man
who won't pay, and contracts
debts every where that he can, and
will not go to see about it when
notified, or give any satisfaction,
he will likely be reported, and af-
ter that his credit is gone among
the members of the Board of
Trade. If a man has a note dis
counted in one of our banks he
must attend to it or it will be pro-
tested. If merchant sells goods
on time, he doesn't give them
away. He expects to get his pay
for them. If the man whom he
trusts won't pay him, the mer-
chant is a Ounce to trust him again
/ have endeavored tostate in plain
language the objects of the Board
of Trade, and hope all fully I'M
derstand it. The Board will stand
by the honest men of the commu-
nifty, and honest men will stand
by the Board. That is all there is
of it.
