Exit Dogs.

Since the dog tax has been raised
to two dollars a head, there has been
quite an exodus of dogs from the
town. A gentleman from Keyser in
forms us that Martinsburg dogs have
lately been arriving there almost
daily, and put out to aboard" 1t is
also reported that some of the men,
bers of the conncil sent their dogs off
rather than pay two dollars tax on
them these hard times, and while
there will be some good dogs that
will go, it will have the effect to rid
the town of a lot of worthless ours
who make night hideous with their
incessant yells. 1t will also be a good
thing for the sheep on farms adjacent
to town.

Kicked by a Horse.

On Saturday last, Mr.. B. j. Reed,
who resides near Little Georgetown,
was kicked on the Jaw by his horse,
and his jaw broken in two places.
DIR. Buckles, the attending physician
brought Mr.. Reed to town yester-
day (Monday), and took him to DR..
E B Hamill, who constructed plate
and applied it to the fractured parts
for the purpose of keeping the bones
in place, and after the plate was APP
piled, assisted by DR.. Myers, tb@ jaw
was bandaged, and it is thought his
jaw will now be saved from perma-
nent injury. The fracture is an ug-
ly one, and he will be under the care
of his physician for several weeks at
least.

Removal of the signal station.

The Morgantown Post says Ser
geant Dunno, in charge of the Signal
Station at West Virginia Universe
fy, received orders last week from
the chief of his department to close
the Station at midnight'of July 31st,
pack the instruments, and report in
person at Washington. The Execu-
tive Committee of the University
have taken such steps as may posi-
bly, prevent the closing of the Staten,
by proposing to defray all expenses
except salary, until appropriations
may be made.

OUR N~EIGHBORS.

The Combination of the Western
Maryland Railroad and the canal
promises big things for people along
the line of TIRE latter route.
Hagerstown is as mad as a hornet
because her citizens will have to run
over here to see old John Robinson's
circus.
The Normal Institute, for the in
structiOu of the teachers, was opened
in Romney ON Monday week by
PIof. Joseph McMurran.
The Parkersburg Times, noticing a
recent political meeting, says that
"Bishop Kahn graced with his pres
ence the interesting occasion. He
delivered an inspiring address, allud-
ing also somewhat to politics ,exhort-
ing the Catholics to stand by the st.
Louis nominees"
AT a brewery in Cumberland, Md,
there is a male deer with somewhat
human procliviities. He eats with
gusto any quantity of cigars and
smoking tobacco given him, not hav-
ing learned the slower process of
smoking. But his most extraordina-
rily human proclivity is his delight
in lager. He will drink a gallon at a
draft and show it's effects on his men,
tai calibre by jumping over anything
before him, and anon by being CO.
quettish and lovingly agreeable to
persons approaching him.

A MISTAKE.

The Hon. j. Proctor Knott made
a bad blunder in his speech in the
House on Thursday, in which he at
tackled the Hon. James e. Blaine
with much bitterness of feeling. The
action of the House in recommitting
the report unanimously signed by the
committee exonorating Mr.. Knott
for his course in Withholding the
Caldwell dispatch, must have con-
WINGED that gentleman, then and
there, of his egregrious blunder.

ANOTHER RICHMOND.

Another Richmond has appeared
in the field in this Congressional Dis
trict. The Hon. r. B. Sherrard, of
Mooreield, proposes to run for Con-
gress at the coming election. This
seems to have been a sudden notion
OF Judge Sherrard, but we presume
his numerous friends have forced
him to come out. 1t is really aston
ishing what a host of numerous
friends'' a man has at his back when
he puts himself forward for public
position. However, we presume
Judge Sherrard is fully confident he
will give Judge Hoge and Hon. B.
T. Martin much trouble before he is
through.
