CAPT. McLURE, in speaking of the
finishing up of bis new boat, informed US
that he never before had so much diff
Guilty in procuring mechanics as he has
had In this instance. Carpenters, paint
ers, and indeed most skilled workmen in
Wheeling seem to have all the work
they can possibly do, and at fair wages
At no time IN the history of tie city has
there been so many buildings in the
course of construction as is the case at
the present time. And large proper
ton of the new buildings going up are
of a superior class for Wheeling. In.
deed, many of them would do credit to
more pretensious cities than ours.
What does this indicate? That manu-
featuring and trade is unusually pros
porous in Wheeling? That can hardly be.
While it is true that all our manufsc-
tories are in full operation, that our mer-
chsntile houses are doing their usual
volume of business, that our mechanics
are mainly employed on full time, no one
believes that large profits, or, even medi-
um profits, are being earned, except in
rare instances.
1t is not on account of the low price of
building material. For lumber is as high
rs it was last year, and part of the season
it was higher, in consequence of the lack
of snow last winter upon which to clog"
Brick has sold at about the same figure
this summer as last, ard the supply has
scarcely been up to the demand. Skilled
labor is not much lower in price. Taking
it all together, the main difference in the
COS. of a building in favor of the pro-
prietor, is represented by the loss of
profits to the contractor.
After survey of the fields, does Il
not look as if much of the building going
on was occasioned by the fact of there
being q good deal OF iGle money, and but
few industrial enterprises that offer
temptations to investment
Whatever may be the cause the fact
remains that Wheeling is unusually
prosperous IN the way of the erection OF
new buildings.

THE ISSUE MADE UP.

The Democratic House has Topped OF
ferty millions of the wasteful and ex-
travagsnt appropriations of the govern
ment, but the Republican Senate has re-
fused to concur. The issue is thus square
ly made between Republican waste and
prodigality and Democratic retrenchment
and reform.
Let the House stand firm; and let the
issue 20 to the country for the decision Of
the people.
To cut down expenses, lessen taxation,
tighten the gloom of business stsgnation
and put an end 10 corrupt jobbing, is the
demand OF an overwhelming majority OF
the people.
The loss OF forty millions of dollars
which have been cut off by the House,
will not embarrass the operations Of the
Government if public officers will do
their duty.
Its true, there will not be much left
for the rings and corrupt combinations,
which rule the country; not much for
the BKLKNAPs, the DELANors, the Rob.
EsoNs, the "Boss" SHEPHERDS; not
much with which to corruptly carry cleo
tions, or to fasten bsyonet rule in Louisi'
ana and the South; but every branch of
government will have ample funds to
perform its legitimate business
This reduction is not only demanded
by every consideration Of economical
and pure government, but it is an actual
necessity. Senator THURMAN clearly
stated the case in the Senate, last week,
when he said:
at is admitted on all hands that the
expenses of the government must be
reduced or there must be additional taxes
levied on the people, or We must 90
what no government ought to do In
time Of peace-borrow money TO defray
the ordinary expenses ofthe government.
The falling of of the revenue in the
present fiscal year is not less, ! believe,
as stated by any one than nine
or ten millions Of dollars, and some
Senators estimate il at double that
sum. The probable decrease Of the reve.
nue. for the coming fiscal year, as esti-
mated by Senators who have paid much
.ttsntiop to that subject, is stated by
none, / think, 1t less than sixteen mil
lions of dollars, and by some IS high as
forty millions. 1t is, therefore, perfectly
clear that we must do one ofthree things;
noe n,sst lessen expenditures, or zoe must
,rersass tares; or zoe s.sst 6oroU money
a,,d increase ths ps1lte dsbt to carry on the
ordinary <zpsrsss Of the government"

which is indispensable to the full enjoy

no one locality, but from every city, vii

strange utterances of foreign tongues,
like the confused murmur of many wa

the Pleasant Purgative Pellets, the great

action eruptions disappear, excessive
waste is checked, the nerves are strength
