luna 1871

Editors of the Register:
As this is town that has sprung up
like magic, and having name that was
not liked by its inhabitants, the name re-
Gently given it is darlington, many of
your readers no doubt would like to hear
from us 1t is located four miles south
of Warrington, on the Wheeling and
Clarksburg pike and seven miles to the
nearest point of the West Fork river, on
Little Bingamon creek. 1t contains
about one hundred inhabitants, all told.
We have weekly mail route passing
through this town from Warrington to
Lumberport, while we can boast of one
portable steam saw mill, with Shook ma
chinery attachments, dong large bust
ness in slaves. &c, one church, one school
house, two school teachers, two physi-
clans, and two Sunday Schools So you
see we are no small speck in the constel-
lation of burgs in Marion county. Our
buildings are principally new and pre-.
sent quite tasty appearance. Our pco-
pie are all industrious and peaceablc, and
enjoy quiet and happy life.
Notwithstanding, we shall try and
cite you to further geographical sur
vey of our adjoining vicinity. We have
very large scope Of country here, very
,hicliy inhabited by those who
are turning their attention
to agricultural affairs, as its soil
is very productive and it is principally
limestone and sand. Its minerals are
rich, especially its coal. We have vari-
Gus coal banks in veius measuring from
seven to nine and eleven feet thick, and
of ~ good quality as can be found any
VII, ...
These banks are supplying great
many who are destitute of coal banks.
We also have plenty of oil il properly
developed. \ few years ago we had u
well put down several hundred feet. and
had procured considerable quantity of
oil. but the Company in regard to tlnan-
cinl affairs as they did not accumulate
means sufficiently, were disabled from
further developments. You see by our
surrounding facilities, we are not desn-
tute of support for our town. We
should expect this TO be the permanent
location for the Capital this fall, but as
our town is not Incorporated yet, we
should ask them favor, TO defer liking
ON ,his AS the location for Il short bit OF
time, until we shall be fully prepared

THE COUNTY LEVY.
Some Remarks from BOggs' Hill,
About tue Proportion Of the County
Levy Devoted 10 Country Roads.

Editors of the Register.
| know of no way of saying
what ! want better than through the
columns of vonr paper.
The Board of Commissioners seem to
have made under the circumstances, a
liberal levy for roads and bridges. No
matter how light or how heavy the levy,
this part is all that interests US III the
country. If we do not have good out
lets to the city we can have no interest
there. The Improvement OF Boggs, hill
road was commenced last year. This
year nothing is to be done for it. The
Meeting House bill road also com
menced last year, is being carried to
Marshall County Court. .........
The Boggs Hill road comes into the
National road less than three miles from
the city. For three miles back it is the
only outlet to the city and were it eA-
tended as far back Us the Meeting House
hill road is being improved, would ac-
commodate Onc-iourth of the hauling OF
the cuurty, except the National road travc.
The Meeting House hill road Is siA
miles from the city, and Is Il necessary
outlet for about dozen farms in Ohio
county. 1t leads to Dallas postotlice,
(Haneytown) III Marshall county, which
has three good outlets to the city, and on
which, this year, about six thousand dol
lars will be expended.
Dallas is probably fifteen miles from
the city, and probably has no more trade
than Potomac postofiice, about the same
distance awayin Ohio county, and nobody
is irving TO build u road there. This looks
AS if some sections were better represent
ed than othrrs-or is it because one comes
through Elm Grove and the other does
not?
This looks like discrimination in favor
of one section and against another. |
think it comes of neglect, and attention
not being called to the need of the coun.
| try, for we certainly have no rings in the
Board.
Nothing more is done for the sections
mentioned, than is needed, but why
not treat all alike? If we had one of the
outlets that Ohio county is building for
Dallas in Marshall county. we would
feel better in paying what little taxes we
have to pay, and we would bring three
times the produce we do into the city.
We offered $2lO0 last year to the Board
to assist, if they would improve our road.
Our money was not receiI ed. Meeting
House hill offered $780, and the Board
gave them $1,000, while they fastened
upon us a dead weight in the shape of a
grade, for hauling purposes, rs steep
again as Wheeling hill, that is, half the
load cannot be hauled up it that can be
up Wheeling hill
We are not complaining of taxes; we
are not complaining of other sections
getting improvements for which we arc
helping to pay, but we merely take this
way of stating facts, thinking that you
have overlooked us. as | think certainly
the facts are not known, or else there is
gross partially shown toward certain
sections toward which somebody is pledg-
Ell. Is.

regret very much to call the atten-
tion Of the brethren to some of the de-

Masons, like other men, are fallen
being. The earliest page of mans history
is the record of his fall. The members of
our fraternity claim no invincibility to
temptation, no immunity from sin.
Clothed with all the passions of our
nature. and liable to all the weaknesses
of frail humanity, it would be strange,
indeed, if many should not some
times stray from the path of
rectitude, Should any such devin-
ton from morality and virtue come to
the knowledge of brother, it is not the
part OF any true Mason to proclaim 1t
from the housetops, but to whisper it Sc
cretly in the ear. Every Mason is the
keeper of his brothers honor and repu-
tation. OF all the places in the world,

The Richmond Wing says: Mr.. Daniel
Morgan White has presented to the State
Library door-key which be found in
1867 among the ruins OF Blennerhasselt
house, on Blennerhassett,s Island, IN Ine
Ohio river, three miles below Parkers-
burg, West Virginia. The Blsnnerhas'
sett house was burned about 60 years ago,
and the key is marked with every evidence
of having been subjected to intense heat
The Blennerhassett mansion was much
like feudal stronghold, and in its time
was the wonder Of the western country.
1t was there that the Blennerhassetts and
Aaron Burr dwelt in almost princely
magnifcence, and INDUCED those dreams
of empire IN connection with Mexico, That
caused the arrest of both and the trial OF
Burr for treason.
