Sparks From Guyandotte.
From Our Frisky Correspondent.

GUYANDorTE, July 22nd, 1s74.-Hav-
ing been absent from the "dotte" for over
4 week, I could no: regale you with its
gossip and the many important (?) events
that have transpired. I would give you
detailed description of my trip, but have
not the time suffice it TO say, l have been
over in the mountains, paid flying visits
to the Alum, the Old Sweet, Blue and
White Sulphur Springs. Unfortunately,
l arrived at the White several days too
late to meet with one Of Huntington's
most distinguished lawyers, VIM. II. Har-
vey, Esq. Although but little acquainted,
| enjoyed my stay very much. Quite
number of fashionables had assembled
there, and others constantly coming. 1t
is expected to be the gayest season they
have ever known. Being bashful youth,
participated but very little in the gave
ties of the ballroom, still what little |
did enjoy, / paid dear for, as | lost my
heart past recalling to one of Louisville's
most beautiful and fascinating blondes,
Miss la WI, whose bright eyes
and many charms of both person and mind
cannot be surpassed. Methinks Lord Hol-
land must have had reference to case
like mine when he said:
"Let no one say there is need
or time for love 10 grow;
An. no, the love that kills indeed
Dispatches at blow"
would describe to the many readers OF
tba A tho hoo MI f,l nd x1io
rescue country through which passed,
but | know they have had the description
from ADLER pens than mine.
A correspondent OF the New York World,
who has been sojourning at the Springs,
in attempting TO enlighten the readers OF
that journal of the places Of interest along
the great Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad,
speaks of the Hawks Nest as the "Owrs
Nest" How stupid. Gen. McCausland
is among the visitors, and is capering
around like youth of twenty-five. There
will be gay times there in the next thirty
days.
Our town was enlivened the other night
by the young men from off the Fannie
Dugan, who, with band, serenaded their
several lady friends. The music was
charming and highly appreciated, and re-
minded the ladies of the many delightful
trips they have had on that boat.
The Southern Methodist Quarterly
Meeting was held here Saturday and Sun
day; conducted by the presiding elder,
Mr.. Vaut, assisted by Mr.. ClaughtOn and
Mr.. Medley.
Several of the young people who joined
the Northern Methodist Church last win
ter, during the revival, were immersed in
the Ohio River Sunday afternoon.
As Court is in session in Barboursville,
our streets look deserted for, owing to the
criminal case on docket, a large number
Of our citizens have been summoned to
attend.
That nomination for House Of Delegates
has brushed all the hay seed off brother
Everett's clothes. Some say he had no.
ton Of trying the Independent line, in
case OF his defeat before the convention,
but | never believed it, as he is good

THE ALDEN FRUIT DRYING AP-
PAPATUs DR.. p. H. Mccullough
and Capt. II. c. Parsons are active
" engaged in getting up stock for Il
company to erect an apparatus for
driving fruit by the Alden patent
BY this process fruits Of all kinds are
rapidly exhausted Of all the water
in them, aud the nutriment AMI es-
sential virtues concentrated and pre-
slsyed.
The fruits preserved by this process
are rapidly becoming staple article
of commerce and consumption, but
the demand for them for expectation
and consumption at sea has almost
prevented their introduction in do
nestle cooking. The enterprise has
proven very profitable at other pla-
ces. and from the abundance of fruit
alonc'the river, and the facilities for
transportation, it will doubtless pay
well here.

been killed by the police and their
carcasscs thrown into a gully on the

the water is taken ont that Is hauled
up into the city for use. This is a
pleasant reflection when we remcm-
Der that a great deal Of the cooking
in town Is done with ths water, and
many persons Use it for drinking pur-
poses.
We suggest tia. the council see to
it that the dogs are not a greater
nuisance dead than living.

Correspondence Huntington Advertiser.

LOGAN c. II. w. Va, July 1Sth.-A
sad accident occurred few miles above
town on Wednesday evening last. Ed.
White, a young man of about twenty years
Of age, who was working on the farm OF
James Lawson, rode one of Mr.. Lawson's
horses in the river for the purpose OF swim
ming him, and losing his seat, was thrown
into the water and drowned before assis-
lance could reach him. lie was the only
son of a widow lady, and his death was
quite blow to the family, who have the
heartfelt sympathies OF the people.
Mr.. Emanuel Dempsey, who lives on
Island Creek, in this county, went out
hunting the other day, with his gun and
only two loads of ammunition, for the pur-
pose of watching a deer lick about four
miles from this place. Upon his arrival
he met with a large she bear which lie
quickly despatched to that bourne from
which no bear ever returns. The report
If the qua had scarcely ceased to reverbe-
rate among the hills, wien great he bear
made his appearance upon the scene. Mr..
De.npsey reloaded rs soon rs lie could,
and sent this one to join the other. The
bears would weigh about 800 pounds each.
So you see "there is life in the Old land
YET or at least game.
The crops are looking well since the
rain.

"GUILTLESS.,

The great American drama that has
held the country spell.bound for
months past has, through the manjpu-
lations Of the Plymouth Church In.
vestigating Committee, eliminated in
disgusting farce, from which the in.
telligent portion OF the audience turn
away in supreme contempt. After
excluding all the testimony tending to
convict Beecher Of the crime
charged against him, and using only
that calculated to white-wash the
prominent offender, the Committee
gravely announces to the people that
lie is guiltless, and pass Q resolution
NThs, tho evidence before the Elk
aiming Committee not only does not
afford any foundation for putting the
pastor of this church, Rev. Henry
Ward Beecher, upon trial, but on the
contrary, establishes, to the perfect
satisfaction Of this church, his entire
inuocence and absolute personal purity

than ever before for his public lab0r
among Ia, 10 our church, our families,

Monlton's statement, upon which
The case mainly rested, was virtually
suppressed for sorae reason, possibly
on account Of his position az q EMU
tual Friend" He has repeatedly
stated that he would not mburden
himself unless compelled by proper
tribunal, and the case may yet get in
to the courts. The verdict Of the Elk
aiming Committee has been antici.
i,ated all along, and no one is surprised
at tho acquittal Of Beecher 1t their
hands.
The charge of black mailing against
Tilton and Moulton is weak anil un
tenable. An innocent man, according
10 the general acceptation Of things,
cannot be black mailed. Guilt is neces-
sarily precedent thereto. 1t is strange
that If Beccller was the innocent man
this Committee makes him out, that
he should have SO long cringed upon
the rock Of despair, and quietly sub
mittcd to the filching Of thousands of
dollars from him by his prosecutors,
when one word from his immaculate
lips would or should have relieved him
from his embarrassing attitude.
Any one familiar with the history Of
Woodhun and Clftlin previous to and
after their first publication of the scan

ed financial assistance in New York
from an unexpected source, and it is
apparent that the material aid came
from Beechcr or his friends.
But We hope the end in this matter
has been reached. The people have
been surfeited with the details for
months past, and have nc doubt form !
