ers, and County Surveyor Smith, ycster-
day visited and inspected the two bridges
recently erected by the city and county
respectively at the Peninsula. Messrs.
Barrett and Browning were sent to this
city by the County Court Of Brooke
county, in order to inspect our new
bridges and report us 10 the practicability
Of using the same kind in Brooke county.
After looking at both bridges, the gen.
tlcmen decided in favor OF adopting the
county bridge as n pattern, which in
their opinion is the best swung bridge OF
the two, far more serviceable and better
finished. Brooke county proposes TO
erect five iron bridges over Buffalo creek,
and ,Messrs. Barrett and Browning will
recommend that they be of the same pat.
tern as our county bridge. and that the
Canton Wrought Iron Bridge Company,
OF Canton, Ohio, be contracted with to
build them. Judges Barret and Brown
ing returned home in the afternoon on
the steamer Abner O'Neal.

HUMrrY DUMprY.-Notwithstanding
the severity of the weather, the Opera
House was crowded last evening. In fact
from pit 10 dome there was one sea Of
faces. The pantomime itself was very
good, containing many new and funny
scenes and tricks. The Humpty Dumpty
OF Maflit & Tyler could hardly be recog,
nized as compared with Fox's old
Company. Everything is new. and
fresh, and we find nothing old. Be
sides the new and amusing features in
the pantomime, there are n number Of
specialties. The acrobatic and tumbling
acts Of the Almonte Bros. were far above
the average. Mr.. Dunbar, the vocalist,
possesses a very fine voice, which he used
to good advantage; Miss Louis Boshell il
an attractive and sensational gymnast; Ky
mock and Smith won repeated applause in
their skatorial exercises; the vocalisms Of
the Milanesc MinstrelS were good; and
"Littlc Todd" the German wonder, as
tonished everybody by his extraordi
nary performances. The show was .
good one, and all who witnessed it car
testify accordingly.

BELLAIRE LoCALs.-A petition is now
being circulated here, and, We believe, in
other parts Of the State as well, praying
the Legislature to so change the lien laws
OF the State as to equalize the security
afforded to contractors, sub-contractOrs
and mechanics. As the laws now are, a
sub.contractor, mechanic, or a person
furnishing material TO contractor may
not take lien upon the property, as Sc
curity, whereas the contractor can so se-
cure himself. This gives the contractor
an unfair advantage. The petition is re-
ceiving many signatures here, and ii
strikes US that mechanics are wise in
gigning'it.
All the street crossings in town are
