E.x.uaA Nlr1.-A petition was

KAsAwaA Mln--A petition was
recently forwarded to the Pos: Office
Department, for the establishment of
a nail route by land from this place
to Winfield, there bsinga daily mail
from TIA. place to the railroad. This
wou!d,ofcourse, doaway with the river
route from here to Charleston, and it
seems to US, would give the people of
the Kanawha Valley better mail IA
cilities than we at present have, and
probably at less expense to the De-
partment. It would give US daily
communication with Charleston, q
thing TO be desired even though it
NAV be only temporarily the perms-
aent seat. But, we understand, a
counter petition has been sent on
from our neighborins town of Win
field, a place of not very many hou-
ses, or much enterprise. They say
they do not want this mail route
Now, If the people of Winfield are
satisfied, can't they consider how i'm
portant it might be to Buffalo, Point
Pleasant and other little towns on the
Kanawha River, to. communicate
daily With Winfield! But they hay-
ing objected, we despair of having
the route established, the Post-Mast-
or General having doubtless formed
such an idea of the magnitude of
Winfield as to believe it would take
a week to go rosnd the place, and
though the "yexed question" may be
By this time settled at Charleston,
we can't tell when We viii hear
about it.

days of the past week, and it was
quite difficult for pedestrians to keep

Editor Register:
Ell Smith who shot himself some
four weeks since, although appar-
emily conyalescent, is not gaining as
rapidly as his ftiendscould wish, rot
yc. being able to holdhis head n IN
upright position. Doctors disagree
(as usual) as to the probable cause of
this somewhat unfarorable aspect in
his case, but he viii most likely III
timately fully recover the control of
his head and neck, though we never
fully understand whether the unfa-
yorable symptoms were produced by
a cracked skull" or by the cords Of
his neck being severely injured by
his fall upon the floor"
We hear that a Mrs. Hughes of
Cologne District, was so severely
burned on Friday afternoon of last
week, that she died on Sunday NOR
ming following. This is indeed a
very heart-rending affair, and your
correspondent very much regrets he
cannot furnish more of the facts in
the case.
We have been having all kinds Of
weather except fair weather. for the
past two weeks, the thermometer Of
ton below zero, then again a rain
storm, with speedy return to cz-
IRENE cold.

politics, mighty uncertain. L. .

ATTEMPTED SUIclDE.-Wc regret to
announce that on the Sth inst, DR..
Reuben Vance, son of Capt. Alexan-
der Vance, of Gallipolis, Ohio, at
tempted to take his own life, while
in the room Of hotel at Parkersburg.
He was married but 4 few days be-
fore, in New York to very cstima-
bic lady, connected with some of the
best families Of that city. 1t is said
that at that time he was suffering
from slight alteration of the mind,
and as he appeared to be growing
worse, It was deemcdbest to send him
home to his fathers, to be taken care
of. One of the New York Metropol-
itan police, in undrcss but carrying
his badge, mace and credentials, ac-
companicd him. Before leaving the
city, The doctor had been deprived Of
everything that could be used to his
injury, and on the way Lither had
been quite tractablc and manifested
nothing like a spirit Of mischief
His guardian, however, carried with
him l pair Of handouts which he
put with his revolver and valuajlcs,
undcr his pillow. During the night
the policeman was aroused by the
doctors calling to him, and gradual
" working his way over towards his
bed, when, in 4 moment, and before
4 movement could be made to inter
ccpt him, he snatched the revolver
from under the pillow and fred the
revolver into the top Of his head
He fell back inscnSible AID bleeding
profuscly. 4 physician was called
in, but the bal! could not be found.
In the morning it was pronounced
safe to take him home, and he accor
dingly WIS sent on the ten o'clock
train. He il now at his fathers in
Gallipolis, in 4 very doubtful condi-
ton. We hope he may recover.

The Odd Fellows in the United
States are secret beneficial society
of great numerical strength and i'm
portance. On December 31st, 1873,
their membership reached the large
aggregate Of IA, COP, that being the
date at which reports have yet been
made. There were at that time $40
lodges in this country, and during
the year ending with that datc57,212
new mcmbcrs were initiated. The
revenues of this great organization
for 1873 amounted to S3,92S, Cos,
whilst the large sum Of SS3333 go was
disbursed for relief. This Aourishing
society nowhere else attains the
strength it has in Pennsylvania
This State contains 95,l97 Odd Eel
lows, nearly onc-tourth its entire
strength. The income of the Penn
sylvania lodges, of which there are
O,was nearly s9OO,00Oin 1S7S,whilst
the disbursements for relief were
s3373,5C0. Pennsylvania is so far be-
yonl the other States in the strength
Of her Odd Fellows lodges, that they
number almost as many members as
the next three highest States in the
list-0hio, New York and Illinois
combined.
