The Wheeling daily register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1864-1878, 1876-06-23

City Prison for thirty days.
CoMMENCEMENTs.-W have no doubt
the readers of the REGISTER are as much
reioiced as we and the printers in the
Office. and the children are, that COM
mencement season has about terminated.
1t has been a great test ofthe good part
of human nature for the past two weeks
and the newspaper man and the general
reader OF newspapers, have had by faI
the worst part of the trouble to endure
1t may be fur for those who have to
conduct these exercises. 1t may be
very interesting to fond and hopeful
parents and to ambitious youths who
have won honors in their classes, come
out best and been accorded their medals.
But to the poor editor and printer who
have to delve over bad manuscripts, hard
names and incomprohensible figures until
3 o'cltc OK in the shadow of the morning
by gaslight, such exercises have no at
fractions whatever. We think, however,
that the REGISTER and its readers have
borne their part of the parental burden
with becoming christian fortitude land
they are all christians; that they have
done Justice to all the schools, teachers
and pupils; and now, at the close OF the
festive occasion, We have only the single
regret to express, in the name of the
"devll" of this office, that we cannot par.
ticipate in any part of the two or three
months holiday which is of right assigned
to both teachers and wards. May they
have happy time Of it during summer,
and return to their duties in the fall with
renewed health, spirit and energy.
PERsoNAL.-Judge Edmiston took
his seat on the Supreme Bench yester-
day.
JIG. Shilling, ESQ.,, of Roane county,
is in the city.
Tilden is sixty-two and Hayes fifty.
four years of age. They both come Of
New England stock.
There was Tingling sensation at ST.
Matthews Church last evening.
Col. Ned Wood, State Librarian, has
returned from Charleston.
Erect your own monument was the
subject of an essay at the commencement
exercises Of the Wheeling Female Col
lege. That's what some of our young
men are doing, erecting theirs-down
ward.-Ohio Valley Ne'cs.
The campaign poets are happy. They
say that there is no trouble in making
lots of rhymes for Hayes. But ii the
Democrats should nominate Hancock or
Parker or Groesbeck, they would be cast
into the depths of dispair.
Last evening at o'clock, George K.
Tingle, Esq, was married to Miss Mary
Robertson, in ST. Matthews Episcopal
Church. The beautiful and impressive
ceremony OF that Church was performed
by the rector, Rev. J. e. Armstrong.
The wedding was intended TO be
as quiet As possible, but not.
Notwithstanding the church was filed
with people, mostly ladies. The newly
married couple have the best wishes of
hundreds of friends for peaceful and
prosperous life voyage, who pray that
those that have the charge OF love may
hold them in rosy bondage bound"
The Parkersburg Times says:
We made mistake in classifying Mr..
Ramsdel among those OF the West Eir.
GINA Delegation who voted for Hayes.
Mr.. Ramsdell stuck, as did our Prof. K.
w. Summons, like leech to Blaine, and
the only tour West Virginia delegates
who voted for Hayes were: Gov. W. L.
Stevenson, Col. J. w. Davis, OF Green
brier. Messrs. Z. Dana, of Ksnawhs and
DR.. Logan, of Ohio county.
A PHILADELPHIA family are putting
in their claims for some British millions.
The name it is Chadwick. Like so many
other fortune hunting families. their ped
igree is almost complete, only wanting
one or two links to perfect the chain.
These missing links have played the mis-
chief frequently in similar cases, andiwe
are afraid they may be wanting now.
The amount at issue, however, only
amounts TO about thirty millions OF dol
lars. We have neve yet heard any Brit.
ish fortunes placed at so low figure. A
hundred millions Is generally the mini
mum, and the heirs always refuse to take
one cent less.
