MORE ABOUT CARRIAGE. DiIapIdated
and superanuated were the appearance
of an old cart drawn by an older steed
up Market street on Saturday, in broad
day light, and the garbage which the
cart contained dropping out OF the Dot
tom at every jolt, through an aperture
between the side and bed Of the cart, big
enough to insert the drivers head.
If the officers who have the health
Of the city in charge, want to I'M
prove its sanitary conditions, let them
summarily prevent the use by the owners
of all such worn out vehicles as the onere
ferred to above. The amount OF NTH
that is deposited upon our puOlic tnoF-
oughfareS by this means, and the nh-
healthful effects resulting to the people
therefrom are sufficiently great to war
rant some measures being taken, to aoate

we're arrested by the police for creating
disturbance on the streets. When the
officers was going up Chaplne street.
having the parties in charge, the woman
fell in fit on the pavement near the st.
Matthew's Episcopal Church. Every
thing possible was done to restore the
woman to consciousness, but without
avail. She was finally gathered
up, put on shutter and conveyed
to the lookup. After getting there
the woman came to her senses. OF course
everybody though the fit was genuine,
but after short time spent in the lock-
up discovered their mistake. From the
time she was arrested until about ten
o'clock last night she mad dozen scpar-
ate and distinct fits and it seemed she
could drop off in that manner when
ever she felt like it, She carried out
her possumatics quite naturally, but she
failed to get out of limbo by them, Her
husband was very solicitious.. about her
condition, and declared the treatment she
was receiving would be the death Of her.
The parties are strangers in Wheeling'
and refused to give their names. Judge
Cranmer will attend to their cases this
morning.

The cornerstone OF the new Custom
House NJ j Postoffce building in Psrkers-
burg was laid last Saturday afternoon
in accordance with Masonic usage About
two weeks ago an invitation to perform
the ceremony was extended to the Ma
sonic fraternity by Mr.. Me-
Gosh, the supervising architect
and was accepted by the Grand
Lodge of West Virginia and Mount
Oliyet Lodge No. 3, located at Parkers-
burg. The Grand Master, Col. Robert
White, of Romney, being unable to be
present in person sent his proxy to o. s.
Long, Esq., Of this city, Grand Secretary,
who went to Parkersburg last Friday
night and on Saturday conducted the
ceremony. We learn from him that the
exercises passed of very smoothly and
pleasantly and that, thanks to the COM
plete arrangements which had been made
beforehand by the officers Of Mt. OlIyet
Lodge, there was no jar or discord IN
the proceedings.
Masonic delegations were present from
American Union Lodge, ut Marietta,
Ohio, the oldest Masonic Lodge in the
West, it having hand an uninterrupted
existence of nearly one hundred years;
also from Rayenswood, Ripley West
Union, Volcano, Burning Springs, and
other points in this State. Mr.. Long

son, D. ID. q. NJ, as Deputy Grand Mas
ter; Frank Rex, of Parllersburg, rs
Senir Grand Warden; J. II. Riley, Esq
of Ripley, as Junior Grand Warden;
Rev. w. l.. Hyland, of Parkersburg, us
Grand Chaplain; o. G. ScotiieId, Esq. as
Grand Treasurer; Captain Gordon, Of
PurkerSburg as Grand Secretary.
There were about 80 Frcemasons in
the procession under the Chief Marshall
ship of W. F. Poole, together with Il
large number of Odd Fellows, the
Knights Of Pythias, who made II fine
display the Fireman, the Police, and
two brass bands and large concourse OF
citizens. More than one thousand peo-
pie assembled at the foundation Of the
new building, and witnessed the ceremo-
MES.
After the stone had been laid in ac-
cordance with the Masonic ritual, letters
were read from President Grant, from
the Senators and Representatives, in
Congress and from other distinguished
citizens who had been invited to be pres
cnt, and an Grafton was pronounced by
the acting Grand Master Of Masons.
The various odes appropriate to the oc-
casion and prescribed by the ritual, were
sung bv select choir of male voices led
by Mr.. ScofeId The ceremony is said
to have been quite success and to have
rendered entire satisfaction to all con-
cerned.

The DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HAM
AND 4 SHoULDER-On Saturday after
noon the trial of Alex. Buckhard, for
stealing hams from the cellar of VIM
Klappoth, (5oth residents of the lsland)
took place before Squire Caldwell. 1t
was proved by the defense that the piece
Of ham which had been identified by the
plaintiff as his, had shoulder blade in
it, and therefore was not a ham at all, but
a shoulder. One or two butchers were
called in, and upon inspection pronounced
the piece of pork in question the fore
part of hog. The result was that the
case was dismissed and Buckhardt set at
liberty.
