Tue POLE RAISING AT RIPoN.-The &C.
casion of the raising of a Tilden and Hen
bricks pole at Ripon, in this county, on satur-
day afternoon last, was quite a successful
affair, and reflects much credit upon the
Messrs Hefebower and others who were main.
ly Instrumental in getting it up.
''Mollie," the omnibus of Mr.. A. W.
Hawks, safely conveyed the members of the
Charlestown Cornet Band and others, among
whom We were fortunately numbered, to the
locality
After the pole (Which stood GS feet ont of
the ground and Haunted to the breeze a flag
bearing the names of TiIdon and Hendricks,
above which foated the national colors) had
been raised, the Band led the assemblase 20
the grove Eas: of the village, where a COM
modious stand had been erected, to listen to
addresses by speakers invited for the occasion.
The meeting was called to order by Thomas
Lock, Esq, and on motion Thos. N. Isbell,
Esq, was appointed to preside. Mr.. I,bell
came to the front, and after delivering a few
pointed and eloquent remarks on the objects

the vital issues of National campaign, intro
dueed to the audience james NJ. Mason. ESQ.
of Char!es;own, one of the members of tho
present House of Delegates Of West Virginia.
who briefly adverted to the national campaign
and urged upon his hearers the importance Of
bringing the local politics of the day home to
the "fresides" of the country, as the best
means of affirming national reform.
Mr.. Mason was followed by Carter NJ.
Loutham, Esq. Prosecuting Attorney of
Clarke county, Va, in a neat and appropriate
speech.
HOu- ". H. Travers, Of CharIcstown, Pres
idential EIector at Large for the State, next
addressed the an Iience in an eloquent aud
forcible manner. laying Lare the iniquities
aud corruption of the present party in power,
and showing the urgent necessity for 4
thorough reform ia every department. of the
national government.
Thos. n, I~beiI. Esq acnin spoke in con
clusion. \ letter from r. Hume Butcher.
E-q., was read during the meeting, in which
Mr.. i. expressed regret ct no; being able to
be present, as urgent duties upon his farm
detained him at home, aud declared his hearty
concurrence with the objects which had
prompted the occasion.
The Band filled the interim between the
speeches By discoursiug excellent music.
On the whole the gathering at Ripou on
Saturday, though not as large as Nigh, have
been under other circumstances, was very
creditsble one, and We predict that the voters
Of Osburn District, in November next, will
do their part towards rolling up u m.jority
of one Thousand for the Democratic National
Tckat.

DEPOT NEws.-Mr. j.. y. Adams, Of
Loudoun county, Va unloaded at this place,
Tuesday morning last, FIVE Car loads Of sheep,
numbering in all 1000 head. They were
driven to Loudoun for the purpose of being
grazed and fa.teucd and then put into market
tor ssie. MIR. y purchased this lot in Ohio.
1t has come at last. OF course you want
to know what, and it will be necessary to ex
plain. Heretofore this part of town has been
blessed by not having representative in either
of our bands, but now one Of our youug men
has taken prof. Slocum's'' advice and joined
the Band, and our end of town is to be
footed" M along with the rest. Why didn't
ne take "H. G.'s" advice aud ''co West"
: building is now in process o! erection in
the rear Of the Depot which is to be used for
getting out. in the rough. all kinds of handles.
to be then shipped from here to Baltimore to
be flushed. This will be quite an improve
ment to our towu, and will doubtless give
employment to quite a plumber of hands, and
thereby be a great benefit to the whole COM
muni;y.
Numbers of persons pass this point every
day on thoir way to the various summer re-
sorts up the Valley. Freight continues to be
light. Is 4 o.

who carries lump of putty in his hand
and a pane of glass under his arm.
JOHN G. WHITTIER's income is said
to be only $1,000 per annum. John is
one OF our leading American poets. If
he were only good baseball player his
income would probably be larger.
ONLY womal's hair! Who has not
some time in his life picked such
golden thread from his best coat collar,
and felt his heart beat quicker for it?
Or gazed upon tress laid away in some
nook, and not felt the influence of ten

A HIBERNIAN collector of soap-grease
at the South End, who has driven
around the most shattered old frame
that horsehide could cover, appeared

sence of his four-legged scarecrow, he
replied: ssOcs! Mrs. Blank, minny
dollar I've spint on thin harses, an
they do be dyin' on me hands, bad cess
to 'em." To this the housekeeper sug-
gested that perhaps it would be better
and cheaper to buy good horse.
"Thrue for ye, ma'am," said the
Grecian. "By me soul, av see the
morrow I'll buy a good harse av it costs
me taDinty dollars !"-Bostos CONNER
