OUR MOUNDsVlLLE LETTER.
MouNDsvILLE, November 81.

MOUNDsvLLLE, November 81
Editors IntelllGGnCer;
II was my privilege to take u short
trip into the country on last Friday
evening, and enjoyed it so much that |
can not refrain from giving a short nc.
count OF it. The weather was very fine,
and everything seemed to add to the en-
joyment Of the trip. First and foremost,
| was seated in one OF Mr.. MCFaddens
beat buggies, behind a splendid team Of
horses. This Of itself was enough to give
u zest to the occasion. Every now and
then we met the wagons Of the farmers
returning from the Corn-felds laden
with golden ears ,of corn. Schools
were being dismissed, and the merry
children were trOoping homeward. Our
route lay along the Waynesburg road as
far as the residence Of Mr.. Cloudy, and
the evening sun illumined the grand old
hills, lending q quiet lustre to the scene.
Here we turned to the left, taking the
Wheeling pike, We passed New Wash
ington, little city Of one or two houses,
which may one day become noted place,
II has the name, Il nothing else, Passing
on We came 10 Chestnut Grove school
house, which was our destination. Here
We met Mr.. Jerry IlanGn, the teacher,
and with him we went to his boarding
place, Mr.. Talliert's, where we partOOk Of
most sumptuous supper. Mr., Talliert
Is the trustee OF the school, and We under.
stand that he was unanimously elected to
the position. The school no doubt owes
much OF It's success to his management.
The teacher Is spoken Of in the highest
terms by the patrons and the teacher can.
not speak to highly Of patrons and pupils,
1t is no wonder then that the school Is q
success. Would that the sane feeling
existed in all our neighborhOOds. We
were permitted at night to attend an en-.
tertainmeni at the school house, and the
best Of order prevailed throughout the
entire performance. Everything betO.
kCned culture and refinement, and the
order and attention spoke volumes In
favor OF the community. We found our
way back 10 MoundsVille about the time
the "wee sma' hours" appear, feeling that
we had spent both pleasant and profta.
bic evening.
We were sorry while there to hear Of
the sickness Of the Rev. DOwler, who IL
lying very low from the effects Of u par.
alytic stroke. II is not probable that he
will recover. Elis death will be n great
loss not only to his family but to the en-.
tire community.
Our rolling mill, we notice, Is again in
operation. There has been some change
in ia management, whether for the beat
or not remains to he seen.
We are sorry TO chronicle the sudden
death Of Mr.. Perry Rhodes, OF the Lower
Ward, which occurred this morning. We
cannot give the particulars only knowing
that the death was n very sudden one.

this city. The church throughout was
gaily and prOfusely decorated with aOw-

travelling suit, while the groom was at.
tired in full evening dress, The ceremony
was performed by Father Murray &C.

mony the happy couple were driven to
the depot, where they received the con.
gratulatiOns Of their hosts OF friends un.

they started Centennialwards on an ex.

OF the bride and groom in Wheeling

ney over the matrimonial sea may be

A 1,n,lng.Itlng Come 10 Grlel.

sr. Louis, November 23.-lt has been
suspected for some time past that the
city was being swindled out Of consideta-
bic sums Of money by what Is called the
MacAdam ring, and City Engineer Kotte
has for several months been ietretlng out
their plan Of operations. To-day The
County Grand Jury found indictments
against nine MacAdam contractors, in
spectots, OverSeets and others, and To-
morrow, IL Ia expected, another batch
will be returned. These men are Tim.
Othy Metnghun, g. ArcadeS, Gottleb
Eyerman, j. Sullivan, Gustus 0ettel
Chas. Lyman, Dennis OGorman, Samuel
Turner and Patrick Bambrick. The
swindle consists in charging the city with
and collecting pay for about twice the
amount Of macadam rock actually used
on the street, and the amount ffAudu-
lentlp received from thes treasury was
from $4,000 10 $1,000 per week. II Is
asserted that one or more aldermen be-
long to The ring, and II Ia expected that
they will also be indicted.
