in the day, and prices advanced l@l4
per cent above closing quotations OF yes
terday. Shortly after twelve o'clock AN
attack was made on the Granger stocks.

assisted by a tumble in Pacific Mail. a

about to be started causing u decline in
that stock from As! to 47&. St Paul
declined from 34t to SO; Northwestern
common from 37S to S6s, and Wabash
from 3St to 333. The decline in North

effect that the earnings of the road will
show heavy decrease. Towards the

HSsDsafE' srocK,-Calling in 81 the
pebalar; merchant tailoring establish
pnesht Of our friend, e. W. seahright, No.
al5s Main street, Centre Wheeling,
yesterday, we we're surprised and de-
lighted with, the goods We saw displayed.
Surprised at the vast quantities of dag
onals, straights and meltons, beavers,
doeskins, cassimeres, and all kinds of
yestings; i'm fact, all the fashionable
styles for gentlemens wear, and delight
ed with the beauty, style and durability
of these fabrics. Mr.. Seabright has just
received his full stock, and it is excelled
by no other establishment in Wheeling,
where gentleman desiring suit of
clothes can find SO large and complete a
stock to select from, or place where the
goods, when selected, will be made up in
so satisfactory manner. ,.. ....
Charley keeps none but the best work
men. Mr.. Louis Bonenberger has built
up good reputation in this city as a
cutter, and can always be found on hand
with full set of workmen, who know
how to pat up clothes in the best possible
style. Whoever leaves an order in this
establishment has sure thing on a per-
feet fit, and the best cloth to be found for
the money.
Give him call, and see if he does not
compel you to endorse this praise of: him.
At any rate those persons not knowing
the extent of this establishment will do
well to call and judge for themselves.
A MUSICAL TREAT IN PROSPECT
The agent of Theodore Thomas Orches-
ira was in the city yesterday making ar
ran gements for the appearance of this
world renowned musical organization at
the Opera House on October 10Th. This
organization consists of sixty distinguish
ed performers, and when travelling, gives
their concerts with the same style of per
lection in the smaller cities, rs in New
York and Philadelphia.
Miss Emma Cranch, the young Amcri.
can Prima Donna, will make her first
appearance in public at these concerts.
Miss Crsnch possesses voice of extraor-
binary purity and richness, rs well as of
compass and fexibility The young lady
is native of Cincinnati and has studied
in Italy. When heard by Mr.. Thomas,
on her return from Europe, in the fall Of
1873, he advised her to prepare herself
for appearance in concert. Miss Cranch
has followed the advice given her, under
the guidance of Signor Errani in New
York, and Mr.. Thomas takes pleasure in
introducing her to the American public
rs one oftheir most gifted country women.
This will undoubtedly be the musical
event of the season.

There may have been desiro oBottle old scores
with tho President on account Of tho momoran-
dum and there may have been an honost pur-
poHo to prcyont further corruption In tho admin
latration Of District affairs. However this may
bo, tho fact rcuains that President Grant has
added ono more to a long list Of disgraoeful ap-
poiutmonts, mud has been met with iii opposi-
ton vote that is equivalent to consure. In
placo Of Shepherd, cx-sonator Cattoll has boon
appointed and confirmed. The other members
Of the Commission nre e1.Gov. Denniaon, Of
Ohio, and Henry T. Blow, Of Missouri. As st
present organized, tho Commission will probably
answer tho expectations Of the people that An

Colorado and Now Mexico arc not to bo added
to tho Union Of States just yet. Bills for the ad-
mission Of these Territories were laid aside in
tho Senate yesterday. and go over until tho next
Hossion. An Interesting study might be made Of
the conflicting emotions which rise in tho aver
ago Senatorial bosom when q bill for the alnats-
sion Of q new State is put upon Its pas
sago. On tho ono hand thero is the in-
terest OF tho purity to be conserved, and
on the other tho dignity Of the Senate to MUM
