Mr.. c. W. b. Allison Of this city Is in
receipt Of n letter from prominent citI'
zen Of Toledo, informing him that COM
mittee from that city will arrive in Wheel
ing on next Monday, the IlOth, aud after
remaining here day or two with a view
Of inspecting the manufactures and other
resources OF the city will return to Toledo
in carriages over the toute Of the Wheel
ing and Lake Erie Railroad. Their OBJ
ect Is to inform themselves fully IN re-
gard to the terminal advantages and re-
sources Of the road here on the Ohio
river, and likewise as to the character ot
the country along the whole route. We
trust that our business men, especially
those prominently identified with the
manufactures ot The city, will think II
worth while 10 give this committee a'
much Of their time and attention rs pos.
sible during their stay. Wheeling is moi
one Of the places that pteposse's strahg-
ers at first sight. To be appreciated for
what II is worth it has to be shown and
explained to visitors with some degree Of
minutuness. Z AGi ~. y
We understand that the committee will
lie accompanied by reporter for the
press, who will be the historian Of their
observations. This is an additional reO.
son for taking all proper pains to make
their stay agreeable. We have a great
deal to show them, that, to them, will be
novel and interesting. Wheeling IL not
known to the enterprise aud capital OF
the country as she should be. There are
cities Of less population, wealth and re-
sources that are much better known than
she H. One reason is that they are at
more pains to avail themselves Of visits
like this to point out the inducements
which theiE location offers 10 tnen Of
enterprise and capital 10 settle III
their midst. Generally speaking, our
people are content to let olir advantages
discover themselves TO the world. Ger.
tainly no city in the land has rcsorted to
less clnp.trap to magnify its Inducements.
And while we have no desire to see this
conservative characteristic give way to
anything Of fictitious or bogus kind, yet
we do think II nothing more than justice
yourselves that we should inaugurute
little more activity and zeal when oppor.
tunittcs present themselves for letting our
solid worth and advantages as commu-
nifty be known to the enterprising men Of
the country. We hope, therefore, that
proposed visit the Toledo Committee
will be the occasion Of a cordial inter-
SourSe between them and our leading cit
itens.
