About Those Torches.

The Jefferson Banner says that Republi-
caus stole the torches at the Tilden blow
out or fiat out last week The Banner is
mistaken. The only persons we have heard
suspected or charged with taking the
torches arc ta0o democrats, but no sensible
man believes them guilty. The fact is, we
presume, that boys who carried the torches
in procession, not being paid the promised
fifty cents for the service, are holding on
the same for security. This is rather tong
on those of the youngsters who, in addition
to being cheated out of their pay, received
a threshing from their parents for partici.
pating in third or fourth rate performance
The committee had better pass around the
hat for another collection so as to pay ur
the boys and redeem the torches.

A man named William Luther, employed

and the unfortunate man was thrown against

his chest and injure his back in serious
manner. DR.. Spalding was called to the re-

considered fatally injured, hopes are now

Does Watert0vn owe Judge Orion
AnYthfn0e


An examination of the city records dis
closes few facts which we think will
prove interesting to tax payers, and atten-
ton is invited to them for the purpose of
showing the extent of the obligation that
the people of Watertown are under to Har-
low 5. Orion. We allude to them only be-
cause i, is urged by his special friends and
admirers that he has claims upon this city
| which have never been requited, and they
mildly suggest that under the circumstances
it will be only right to vote for him for
Congress to square accounts What they
refer 10 we have been unable to ascertain.
In our judg ement, Judge Orion has been
amply compensated for all the services he
has ever rendered Watertown. What have
they been? We have taken pains to exam
| inc the records, and we find that on the
10th day of September, 1868, he was en-
ployed to resist an application for man
damus against the city, at the suit of Pit
| kin G. Wright He appeared before Judge
Miller, in Milwaukee, and made an argu-
| ment of perhaps an hour or two, and here
bis services ceased. He returned to Water
town and reported that be had succeeded in
resisting the application for mandamus,
and our people were happy for about forty
| eight hours, at the expiration of which time
the o. S. Marshall appeared here with pap
ers for service, showing that instead of hav-
ing gained his suit, Judge Orion had been
defeated, and the city was the losing party.
For this, his firm, Orten, Mulberger 4 Gard
ner, rendered bill against The city on
May 3D. 1869, for FIVE hundred dollars,
(S5OO), which was finally allowed, Nov.
9Th, 1869, at four hundred dollars $500.
We remember there was considerable dis
satisfaction at the time at the sum charged,
which was generally regarded as extortion-
ate. In fact, 1t was chiefly on this account
that the bill was not more promptly audi
ted. and its final allowance was expedited
by threat that suit would be commenced
against the city if the bill was not settled.
1t would appear, therefore, in view of the
small service performed, and the large
amount paid fer the same, that Judge Orion
has no special claim upon the city, and that
he must base his application for the peoples
support upon more substantial grounds than
that he has been their particular friend and
benefac'or.

To THE LADIEs.-This is the sea
son of the year for ladies to wear
light suits. Waterproof is and other
heavy garments are now relegated
to the wardrobe, to be brought out
when the storms of another season
make them comfortable to wear.
With each change OF season the dry
goods men have to get a different
stock to supply the demand. Women
like to know as early as possible
what is going to be worn, so that
they can make arrange ments to lie
reasonably within the rules of that
tickle thing, fashion. In dry goods,
as in everything else in the line of
trade, energetic, wide-awake dealers
always come to the surface, while
their slow competitors sink down to
the line of mediocrity. 1t is to live
establishment, whose managers are
active to the wants of their custom
ers, that ladies should go where they
are shopping. Likewise of such a
place it is profitable to read when
purchases are contemplated. There.
fore we make no bones to cali the
attention of our lady readers to the
firm of A. Weinberg Il Co., No. 80
South G street, Virginia, who have
just now on hand large stock Of
the finest kind of goods in the line
OF ladies' and children's wear They
have just received from the markets
of San Francisco the latest style, in
cloth and cut, of summer wear, COM
prlsing linen suits, parasols, hats, etc.
The firm do the fair thing by their
customers, and have a large trade.
Those going to Virginia to make
purchases in their line could not do
better than to call and examine their
stock.
