In the sad affair which occurred re-
Gently in our town, and in which, owing
TO the nature Of my Office, | was called on
10 act in IN official capacity, | am un-
Justly charged with playing a double part
and acting in bad faith in my endeayors
to hunt down and bring to justice tho
guilty parties. The charge Is in refer
ence u my going to Steubenville, and |
desire TO brand this foul imputatiOn as
utterly false, will assert briefly what
the history Of the whole case will con.
firm. B, c. Cranston and myself went to
Steubenvillc with official authority to act
in the case, he to confer with the Prose
cutting Attorney, and / TO execute plan
devised by r, J. Alexander, under whose
instructions acted, tho object OF which
was to get confession from Mrs,
Virgins, the supposed criminal. |
communicated to Mr.. CranstOn on
our way up''tO Stsubenville what
| was to do on our arrival there, and as
the least delay was dangerous to our sue
cess and he preferred going fist to see the
Attorney, il was decided that while he
attended to this | would interview Mrs,
Virgins. Ibid not seek private inter
view with Mrs, Virgins, and only went
alone because Mr., CranstOn's duties de-
tanned him from going, While much, as
| considered precious time was being lost,
| went to Mrs. Virgins house, where !
met her for the first time In my life, and
failing in my efforts to get q confession
from her | brought her with Others to
Bridgeport, where they appeared as wit
nesscs in the case. Ihave acted honestly
and Justly in the matter, my only motives
being to procure all the evidence possible,
and throw all the light on II could with n
hope Of bringing a iust punishment on the
guilty party, JAS, MCCoNNAuGnY.

| This popular emporium will offer during the
next thirty days, extra inducements to purchas.
ers Of winter goods. AS is known to our readers
Mr.. Glen long since adopted the system of
buying for cash, and giving to his customers
those profits which houses who bought on time
were compelled to make in order to meet inter-
est and discount of paper when it fell due The
horde of customers which have thronged his
spacious store for several months past, attest
their satisfaction of the course pursued by him,
and the very liberal patronage which he has re.
ceved since New Years (while Others are growl-
ing about no trade) convinces him that the con.
fdencc in his house is so great as to call from
him further reduction. He will therefor prior
to purchasing his spring stock, offer special in
ducements which means low prices--for the
next thirty days, upon all grades Of winter goods.
His store today contains as fine stock from
which 10 select as many of the most prctcntous
have contained during the height Of their fall
trade. Repiete with all of the most fashionable
styles in dress goods and wrappings, and NAM
moth in his stock Of domestcs, he makes the an
nounc ament Of n reduction with that business
determination which characterizes the man. and
well do our readers know that what II. j. Gilleu
adyertises he will perform.
Remember the reduction commences day
and lasts until February 18th

Alderman Hook favored the suggestion OF Mr.
King and also favored the purchase OF good
hoo ana ladder truck. Alderman Stout favored
everything necessary To make the force efficient,
and also urged better supply OF water.
In this strain, with the true interests of our
homes and business blocks in view, our council,
,uithoa u dissenting rate, instructed the fire de.
partment committee, "A conjunction with the
chief and assistant en- gneer. to purchase such
additional apparatus =, would make our depart
ment first class.
So far so good. tn council as body re.
sponded to the universal demand of our citizens
and affirmed its desire TO purchase all needed
equipments. Next morning, as the news spread
we heard more than one expression Of approval
of their action ana our people began to breathe
free again.
In the afternoon, however, (as we arc credby
Informed,) when the matter was spoken of to
Il portion Of the fire committee, said gentlemen
were imbucd with q spirit of economy aud con,
