The Boston Herald says of the son of Cen
Btlknap who is fitting for college at the
Adams Academy, in Quincy, Mass: HE In
about seventeen years old, quite intelligent and
refined in manners, and since his reception
has been . most exemplary and promising
scholar. The young man is possessed OF =
temperament which at times inclines to ner-
vousness on the least excitement, and up to
last evening he remained in ignorance Of the
terrible surprise in store for him. Through
forbearance, the friends of young Belknap in
town RETAINED from either interrogating or
him on the matter.
Hs went to get shaved in barber-shop
and while waiting, casually took up the Euen-
ing Herald and the first matter that struck his
attention was the head line. 1.-THE Fall Of
Belknap." He attempted to read the news
under the caption. but soon realizing that
none other than his own father was the sub
ject, he grew sick at heart, and, almost wild
with excitement returned to he academy
boarding house. His condition was such that
early in the night he took to his bed. and mp
to late hour was in sleepless condition. al
though receiving the sympathy and care Of
the steward, Mr.. Daniel French, and Prof.
Dimmock, Principal Of tbs institution. HIS
illness il not dangerous, and il due to his
grief at the sudden misfortune that has be-
fallen his parents.

THE GAUGERS.

Regarding the dismissal of the gaugers,
Gen. Baldy assures Us that the extra fifteen
cents, alleged to have been paid by liquo,
merchants for placing stamps on packages,
were never received by him, but they we're
paid to young man who made it his bust
ness to save the merchants the expense and
trouble of keeping stencil plates, varnish,
glue, paste, and other materials necessary,
under the law, to be kept by merchants, to
keep supply on hand and to afix the
stamps properly. He collected the money
himself, and the general never saw it.

Centennial Exposition is to be show Of
curiosities rather than Of the best products Of
American culture. He has assigned to duty

1874 were the theme Of general comment all

very pretty little party in Washington. Gen.

Park gave him shares and made him director

he gave Park for the purchase money were
not made until public complaint vas heard OF
his connection with the mine, and that they
were then ante-dated.
He will be asked whether it is tru6 that his
associates in the company. dissatisfied With
his original letter Of resignation, induced
him to write better one; and perhaps he
will DO lsboring to convince Mr.. Fish that il
was quite right after his government had 70

sWest End' Items.

A brisk little shower accompanied
with a little hail on Sunday eve at
$3.50 O'Clock had slight tendency to
cool the atmosphere for time.
Would it not be well to amend the
18th section of the new code so as to
include all the corners of our city so
much infested with vulgar and pro-
fame idlers, tramps and other nuis-
anceS
Any persons contemplating a visit
to the Centennial this season had
better engage the services of one of
our "West End'' hens, with sample
of her duplex eggs, perfect, one with
in the other. With such an accom-
paniment any one could, without
doubt, secure free pass to the great
show grounds.
West King street was entertained
for short time on Saturday evening
by the daring exploits of a country
lad, who imbibed a little too much
benzine, and who insisted on making
target of a colored boy, in order
to test the merits of his carbine. He
was finally prevailed upon to desist,
and was prevented from carrying
out his purpose by the timely exodus
of the boy.

Without expressing an opinion in re-
gard to the ordinance now before the
Council, and which has been pub
lished to give the people knowledge
of its provisions before action is Ia
ken on it, we do not hesitate to say
that we ought to have market regu-
lations of some kind. Martinsburg
has sufficient population to support
first-class market, including a Sat-
urday night market, and would do it
if the proper regulations were adopt
ed and rigidly carried out. 1t would
result in great advantage to both
buyer and seller.

An Explanation

Quite clever trick was played on
the INDEPENDENT and it's readers
on Monday morning. The parties
who had in charge the distribution
of the "Circular" which was scatter
ed over the town, made an arrange
ment with one of the carriers of the
INDENENDENT to distribute them
on his route. He received the Cir
culars on Sunday night and folded
them in his papers at an early hour
on Monday morning, and distributed
them in that way. Those who receiv-
ed their INEEPENDENT containing
"circular" naturally concluded it
had been printed at this office, and
was thus distributed with our sane
tion. Such, of course, was not the
case. 1t was not printed at this Of
flee, and we had no knowledge that
it had been distributed by being fold
ed in the INDEPENDENT until it was
brought to our attention by our
subscribers. 1t was pretty sharp
trick, but at the same time compli-
mentary to the INDEPENDENT, in
asmuch as the parties who had them
printed elsewhere recognized the fact
that the best way to get them among
the people was to avail themselves of
the circulation and popularity of the
INDEPENDENT to get them scattered
and give them some show of force
and effect.

merely wish to say that the weather
at this writing is extremely warm

ing our head through the window to
catch a breath of fresh air, and to
watch fisticuff between two boys
on the opposite corner, managed to
fight it'out with the mercury fitting
up in the eighties. Well, we won't
bore our readers any further, but ice
cold soda-water from Bakers Arctic
fountain has been one of the reme-
dies to quiet a feverish brain.
