II is not quite two months yet UNI

all the preliminaries have been ar
ranged by the committees and eff
cient officers in charge. If indica-
ton can be relied upon, we may
safely count upolra more successful
result than has ever before attended
their efforts. The arrangements are
comprehensive and complete, and
nothing that could lend attraction
or interest to the exhibition has been
neglected. Our farmers should now
be making their arrangements for
doing their share toward the success
OF the meeting. Every good head of
stock should be made ready for the
fair, and no farmer should fail to
have something for exhibition at that
time. Every article counts one, and
helps to swell the number and add
interest TO the occasion.

A BID EXAMPLE,.

The raising or Beecher's salary
from $4,000 to Sl00, 200, by the con-
gregation Of Plymouth Church, is, to
say the last, a matter of rather bad
taste under the circumstances. 1t is
simply premium on marital infidel-
ity, and will be SO construed by an
impartial pnblic, instead Of having
the desired effect of inspiring outside
confidence in Beecher's purity. 1t is
simply an attempt to force.

WESTERN LiFfs.


Incidents OF Our Late Trip.
Good evening gentlemen, said a
brisk little female TO couple of the
late eXcursionists from this place to
Colorado, who stepped into neat,
well appointed restaurant in the from
tier town of Wichita, for their after
tea cigar. Are any of your party
from Virginia ?" she continued, as
her salutation was returned. Receiy-
ing an Affirmative reply, and the in
formation that the two to whom she
was talking were from there, the lit
tie woman let her tongue loose, and
whole volley Of questions as to the
old State were showered upon the
two visitors. Eyes, was from
there-liyed i'll Wheeling, and my
father was a contractor on the North,
western Railroad, between Grafton
and Parkersburg, she run on, '1and
| was married there, come west, was
one of the first to settle in Wichita
five years ago, and have lived here
ever since. My husband kept this
restaurant, and have kept ever since
he died" and in the same breath she
ordered the bar-keeper to 'bring the
two gentlemen from Virginia a cool
lemonade, as the night was warm. .
No doubt it seems strange to you to
see woman keeping a restaurant,
but we don't mind it in this country, ?
she says, at the same time suggesting
that perhaps q game of billiards would
relieve the monotony of conversation
! One Of the gentlemen accepted the
suggestion, and the two played bill
lizards, the little woman keeping up a
lively conversation all the time about
western life, etc. She told strange
and interesting stories about Wichi-
ia, and evinced a thorough knowl-
edge of the country, and large intel
ligence as to it's trade, resources, &c.
When the two left, each took card
bearing the inscription, MRS. S. V.
Sage Wichita, Sedgewich county,
Kansas for this was the name OF
the little woman who was from Vir-
ginia, kept a restaurant on the from
tier, and could play billiards.

shall the Young Man Go West /.

This is the question asked us al
most daily since our return from a
hurried trip through several of the
Western States. Horace Greeley's
Go West, young man, was good adj
vice in many instances, but we would
not like to see it acted upon general
ly. The West is a great country and
Kansas is bound to be great and
wealthy State. But we would not
advise an indiscrim;nate emigration,
and while we believe, as a general
principle, that any man who has a
comfortable home and paying bus
mess in West Virginia, would do
better to remain where he is than to
seek new home in Kansas or else
where, we certainly believe that
young men of energy and good estab-
lished habits of life, out of employ
ment, and the poor man who can af-
ford the expense Of removal, and
make the first purchase for a good
farm, will improve his ultimate, if
not his present condition 10y reno

DEA1H or GEN. r. r.. BLAIR

DEAIH or GEN. f. r.. BLAIR.
The telegraph announces the death
of Gen. Frank Blair. He was a ma
tive of Kentucky, but settled in Mis-
souri, in 1S41, and took an active part
in the politics of that State. He
served as private in the Mexican
war. In 1S4S he attached himself to
the free soil branch of the Democrat
ic party, supporting Mr.. Van Buren,
for the presidency, and publicly OPP
posing the extension of slavery in the
territories. For a time he was the
editor Of the Missouri Democrat. In
1850, and again in 1854, he was elect
ed to the Legislature of Missouri. In
1856 he was elected member of Con-
gress as a Republican, and again
elected in 1860 and 1862. He entered
the army during the civil war, and
was appointed Brigadier General Au-
gust Z, and Major General November
20, 1862. He commanded. a division
during the Vicksburg campaign and
in 1868 the 10Th corps in the army
of the Tennessee in Shearman' S cam
paigns from Chattanooga to Atlanta
in the March to the sea and in the
! Carolinas. In 1866 he was appointed
Collector of Customs at st. Louis and
Commissioner of the Pacific railroad.
In 1868 he was the Democratic can
didate for the Office of Vice Presi-
dent. In 1870 he was chosen United
States Senator from Missouri, to fill
a vacancy, his term expiring March
A, 1878.
His most notable record was the
part taken at the outbreak of the re-
bellion in preserving Missouri to the
Union. He was a man of courage,
frankness and generosity, and had
hosts of friends in the West, where
he was best known and appreciated.

a GRE1T CORPORATION


Until one passes over the entire
main line of the b. & O. r. r., in
Guiding its great Chicago Division,
he can form no adequate conception
of its immensely. The traveller is
at once struck with the completeness
and efficiency Of it's management, the
solidity Of its road-bed, its splendid
equipment, the remarkab BILE speed of
its through trains, and their close
running up to Schedule time-it be-
ing rare thing for through train
ever to to miss a connection or fail to
reach its destination on time. But
the marvel increases when one stops
to reflect that the general superyis-
ion OF the running of not only the
passenger but also the freight trains,
is under the management and con-
troll of one master mind-that of Col.
THOMAS r.. SHARPE, the able, effic-
lent and indefatigable Master of
Transportation of the Road. Under
his supervision the Schedule Books
are prepared, with their complicated
tables and rules and regulations, and
upon him devolves the duty and i'm
mense responsibility of seeing that
their provisions are strictly and
promptly carried out. That he is the
right man in the right place, and
equal to the immense labor and re-
sponsibility of his position, is fully
attested by the completeness, regu-
larity and safety with which the
trains Oh this great Road are run
The executive ability, untiring ener-
gy, quick judgment and affirmative
character necessary to the successful
accomplishment Of such a great
work, is truly a marvel.
