The Chicago Tribune says I'VE
can see no benefit that is to be derived
from any attempt to disguise the fact
that from Illinois, Michigan, Minneso-
ia, Kansas, Nebraska, Missouri and To-
wa, there is almost an unprecsdeut rush
back to the loving arms of the mother
country, and the warmth and light Of
old familiar hearthstones Every steam
err leaving the port of New York is heav-
lily fleighted with foreigners who have
found temporary home onour Western
prairies, These may be divided into
three classes those who are in search
of pleasure those returning to spend
the winter months amid once-familiar
scenes and those who are driven back
from lack of employment here, the pres
ent low scale of laborers' wages, and the
high prices of the common accessories
of life. The frst-named class are de-
cidedly in the minority, and will COM
prise only about per cent. Of the en-
tire number the second-class compris-
es about 25 per cent. and the last nam
ed 10 per cent.

The politicians of Wheeling are
just now having gay time in de-
fining their positions. The editor
of the Iateliigcacer charged that
the Democratic candidates for the
Legislature would, if elected, vote
for III. S. Walker, late public prin-
ter, for U. S. Senator. This brought
out the proprietor of the Register,
who simply stated that he suppos-
ed they would do so. Walker be-
ing terribly unpopular, and having
charges of fraud in office clinging
to him, compelled some of the
Democratic candidates to publish
letters declaring that they would
not under any circumstances vote
for Walker. This shows that in
and about Wheeling the Democra-
cy is by no means happy family.
1t would be rather rough on the
people to hoist I'll. 5. w. into the
U. S, Senate.

The Wheeling registe~ says
Wilson will be elected to Congress
from that District, and the Laseiti--
geacer says Golf will be elected.
Weare inclined to think Que or the
other is mistaken. But each take
partizan view of it,.you know,
and the people will vote as they
please.

matrons and fair daughters Of
Cumberland county. Suspended
above the tables at the South end
of the Hall were several nico quilts
and blankets, which looked as
though they would KEEP warm the
gruffest bachelor on the coolest
night. Near by were number of
articles of embroidery which de-
served all the eulogy they receiv
ed, and that was considerable.
The collars, under sleeves, tides,
"baby apparel" and such filings
ore quite numerous and make a
fine show. The floral display,
though very fine, is not up to tina
made at our late Fair. The dis
play of farm products is large and
very fine. We noticed many large
potatoes, pumpkins, cabbages, &c.
One pumpkin, in particular, was
So large that twelve men could
stand around it. There are many
very fine specimens of wheat, corn,
oats, rye and grass seed on exhibit
ton, all going to show that the
farmers Of this section take lively
interest in the exhibitions of their
Agricultural Society. The display
of carriages, buggies, &c., is the
finest we have ever seen. There
is also d large variety of agricul-
tural implements on exhibition
among them we notice some arti-
cles from the foundry of our towns
man, Samuel Fitz, Esq. The sta
bles and stock pens are well filled
with fine horses, cattle. sheep and
hogs.
THE TRACK.
The rain of yesterday and last
night rendered the trotting track
entirely too heavy for any disp'2y
of speed, and the trotting and run
ming contests have been postponed
until to morrow and Saturday.
CARLISLE.
We found time this afternoon
to take stroll over the city. This
is our first visit. We can express
our opinion in a few words. We are
pleased with it. 1t is live place,
and contains many tasteful and
modern residences and business
houses. The streets are cleanly
and the pavements good. In fact,
a II the surroundings show pro-
gressive spirit of improvement,
and consequent business pros
perity.

The editor of the Troy Why has
seen some good rifle shooting. He
says: "We have seen a man hold
his rifle in his left hand and toss
a chip with his right hand into the
air, and then bringing his rifle to
his shoulder, put a bullet through
the chip. We have known a hun.
ter who always shot cartridges in
the neck or head. We saw him
in the woods kill forty-nine squir-
rels at fifty shots. Several OF the
squirrels were not hit with the
bullet. The shot was made at the
limb on which the squirrels were
sitting, and they were killed by
the conclusion OF the ruptured
