TuE Council has meeting tonight.
PERsoNAL.-Prof Davenport, the clo-
qutioniSt and great facial delincator, was
in our city last night.
ALL quiet at police headquarters. No

THESE cool nights have brought Sor-
row to the heart Of the mosquito. With
tears trckling from his glaring eyes, he
is now singing in dirge like tones,
THE melancholy days have come,
The saddcSt Of the year
But soon his song will be ended; he |
will depart to the rest Of his fathers, and |
We will rest in peace.
THE many new buildings that are in
progress in the different portions Of our
city, are evidences of our steady progress. !
In any part Of the city you will see com
Portable residences, neat cottages, and |
cUmmodiouS business houses in different |
stages of erection. Considering the gen
cral dulncSs Of the times, this speaks well !
for Bcllairc.
We have had the good fortune to stop !
at many good hotels in our travels, but |
never yet met with one that suggested to |
us the idea Of the world, the flesh and |
the devil, until we came to Bellaire |
The well known and popular Globe !
House Of this city just fills this bill, us
the many transient and regular patrons .
can testify. Its name signifies the |
"world,' and the register shows that it |,
gathers them in from all quarters It's |
bountiful table, always supplied with the |
best the market affords, and gotten up in |
style to please the most taStidious cpl |
cure, Is suggestive of the second. For |,
the third in the trio, every passenger who |
ever stopped with him will say that the |
eccentric landlord cprcscnts-wem mean
is a "dcvi of good fellow, except when
SEINE one "spits on the floor" and then
but everybody knows Zekc Morrs-and !
almost all the travelling public who stop |
in Bellairc stop At the Globe House.
McGINTY & STRAUB are cooks of
the walk. They are the ones that make |
glad the hearts Of "wcddingers" The |.
cakes for the wedding we wasn't invited .
to last night, were turned out by them. /
They were superb; We mean the cakes,
of course.
CANDIDATES arc very busily engaged |
shaking hands now. Sheriff Cochran !
visits Bcllaire every few days, which tact .
goes to show that he does not consider
his calling and election sure especially |
his election and in that particular he is
quite right However, he feels confident
enough to indulge in an occasional
"smiIc.'
PAVING street cutters is very i'm
portant part Of the Bellaire programme /
ut present. |
THE gountenanccs Of aye drummers
are Frightening as business generally is
beginning to brighten up, and our city is
presenting a more stirring appearance
than for months past. The prospects Of
a good fall and winter trade arc promis-
ing.
REPORTS are not always reliable, but
we hear rumor Of wedding on the
taps for this evening. One Of our gay
