steep grade near Oskdsle and threw Miss

THE Washington city individual VIII
} secured the contract for carrying tn
mail between this place and Waynes
burg for the current year, wrote to Post
master Wylie that, in the event that tn
sub contractor should not be on hant
July lst to assume control, to make ar
rangements tor temporary services. A
a consequence, Jacob Briggle still car
rles the mail on his hacks, being EN-
ployed by the day until other satisfac
tory arrangements can be madei Post
master Wyle has notified the depart
ment Of the situation, and it is not i'm
probable that the Washington city NAL
may be advised of the abrogation of hi
contract.
The Wool MARKET.-Large quaint
ties of wool continue to be delivered a
the various receiving points in olr county
although we doubt whether the deliverie
last week reached to those eff the proceed
ing week. There is, we think. a Sigh
improvement in prices, several lots o
medium grades having been sold at 33c
and these figures being, generally
offered for clips of the class men
toned. Of course there have beel
sales of the wool at higher rates, owe
40 cents having been paid for very
choice lots. The clip of the count.
for the present season is estimated Il
be worth about 100000, counting it a
30c. This beng the case, we ma.
safely say that about two-thirds OF tn
product have already been sold, and w
are justified in making this statement by
the fact that our fellowtownsmsn Samue
Hazlett. banker, has alone paid out t
| this date 100000.
