ST. CLArRsvILLE, May 19, 1877.

ST. CLAIRsvILLE, May 10, 1877.
ElIton InteIlIgeuccr:
For years il has been the desire OF the
St. Clairsvillians to have u railroad.
Numerous attempts were made to accom-.
plish the object but without success until
The Centennial year. On Monday last
the Bellaire and St. Clairavllle Narrow
Gauge Railway was opened tor pRssen-
gers. Owing to the uncertainty OF the
lay Of opening, no previous notice could
be given, but the Directors are highly
gratified With the result Of the first week
oi.business. On the frat dAy5l passen-
gers were carried; on Saturday 81 passen.
gers. Total for the week, go, being an
average OF 4j pasaengers daily. The road
il still in all unfinished condition, and
will require considerable attention to get
it in fret class order. Still all those who
have come over it express themselves as
highly pleased. One gentleman from
Cleveland was on the look out for the
heavy cuts and fills which he expected to
see required to get up to ST. Clairsville.
He was wonderfully surprised not to see
them. The grade is very easy, not ex.
ceeding 10 feet, and that only for short
distance. The stations on the road are
Quincy" the point OF connection with
the D. 4 o. Il. l., "Echo," formerly Ech-
olls' Mills, latterly known as Workman's
and "CreaCent," about half way to St,
ClairsviIle, at the entrance to Auirs Run,
Length OF line six and half miles. Al
Quincy, Kdd's coal works will supply
the road with a large amount Of traffic in
supplying the ST. ClairsviIle markets with
coal. Already the benelicent effects are
ielt in heredHction Of the price OF coal
from 0 to Z cents and a much cleaner and
superior coal than has been supplied. At
Echo station we have another good mine,
which will commence shipping AS soon AZ
siding can be put in. Both mines are
very conveniently located for loading
cars.
Indications are now that the road can
calculate on hauling 100000 TO 100000
bushels annually.

The Hatred of the Gar.

Count Krysueski, one of the leaders in
the Polish rebellion of 'G3, has been
shot at Warsaw by order of 4 court
martial composed of officers of the
Russian service. 1t seems that the
Count, who was a Polish refugee,
whilst resident at Paris, petitioned the
Gar to permit him to return and
at the same time sued for eXecu-
tive clemency. He was invited to re-
turn, and did so. The unfortunate
man upon his arrival was Immediately
arrested on the charge of rebellion and
high treason, thrown into Warsaw
dungeon, and thence was taken to
Siberia. From that barren waste of
country he managed to escape, and,
after incredible sufferings, succeeded in
reaching his beloved Warsaw. But his
retreat was discovered almost as soon
as he arrived, and his arrest followed;
then the court-martial and sentence,
which was approved by the implacable
Gar who, when asked to pardon him
said: mo; SO may all my enemies per-
ish, especially those who are Poles"
The evidence OH the trial proved
nothing beyond the fact that he had at
one time been engaged in rebellion
against the Gar, and upon his return
to Warsaw had refrained from any
thing of a political nature. and was
peaceable citizen, with every intention
of remaining 50. But this man was
already as good as condemned, for it was
the governments will, and that was
sufficient.
1t occurs TO us that the Car could
have taken lesson from America on
the subject; and perhaps he has and
does not approve of the policy we
adopted in reference to the rebel ele-
ment at the close of the civil war in
this country. At all events it has left
stain upon his character that will not
out, and his action in the affair has
been already severely commented upon
by the European press, as being I'M
called for, cruel and murderons.

Maternal Affections.

From Facts about Wives and
Mothers collection of anecdotes re-
lating to women ana their influence,
we extract the following tribute to the
mother:
The renowned poet, Gray, was the
son of wretchedly besotted and shift
less father; but u kind providence gave
him one of the best mothers, in every
sense of the term. And the future
career of the boy, seems to have veri-
fed the caustic remark of certain an
anonymous writer: "We never saw q
really great man who had not remark
able woman for his mother, but in all
conscience we have seen great men who
could not boast of anything in the shape
of father.'
On one occasion, the mother of the
poet Gray, having business with law
yer, the circumstances seemed to have
demanded that she speak with the free
dom of her husband, which is always
repulsiye to true woman and affec-
tionate wife. At this time she made
the following revelations, which place
in strong contrast the characters of the
parents of our poet:
II have never been any charge to
my husband since our marriage. Dur
ing all this time I have not only found
myself, but also my twelve children,
with all manner Of apparel. l have al
so procured all the furniture of oul
house, and paid forty pounds a year
for the rent of my husbands shop. |
have in addition, provided almost ev.
erything for our son while at Eaton
school, and now he is at Peter House,
Cambridge.
Notwithstanding which, almost evel
since we were married, my husband
hath treated me in most inhuman
manner, by beating, kicking, punching
and the most vile and abusive language,
so that have been in constant feal
of my life. This am resolved to bear

4 Few Items for Mothers to Read.

4 correspondent in writing to the
Middletown Press offers the following
seasonable suggestions to mothers of
afflicted children:
We hope that mothers will remem-
Der that good brandy is a cure for sum-
mer complaint; in bad cases n tea
spoonful in milk three or four times n
day.
A flannel cloth, wet in hot brandy. or
better. camphhor and brandy mixed
and heated, will relieve the pain of the
bowels, if frequently laid over the
stomach and bowels.
Bits of scraped ice are better on the
tongue than drinks Of water.
For stings and poisons, q strong So
luton of saleratus and water immedi-
ately and then frequently applied, gives
relief and sure cure.
For burns, an immediate application
of -four covering the burn and wrapped
so as to exclude the air; then burn lard
till it is quite brown and apply, and re-
lief and cure will soon come. DO not
wash off the flour if it clings, but put
the lard over it.
At night, in extreme warm weather,
lemon squeezed in tepid water, to
sponge off the tired-out little body, will
give rest to both the mother and child.
Saleratus is good, but the lemon is the
best. Even washing off the little feet,
neck, and palms of the hands in tepid,
never very cold, water, will induce 4
healthful sleep.

\ Standing-ROck Rooster.

We have a Catholic mission here,
but at present have only two priests
and one BRO, but four more priests
and brothers are expected, and also a
number OF Sisters One of the
priests is to open boarding school for
the Indian boys, on the first Of May,
and the sisters will open day school
at the garrison for white children, until
buildings are erected for the Indian
girls, which l suppose will be early in
the fall. We have at present day
school taught by very excellent
woman, Mrs. DeGray, and she has
quite q large attendance of Indian and
half-breed children. The scholars seem
to take great interest in their studies,
and are progressing rapidly. The pres
ent school is maintained by the Gov
ernment, but the boarding school will
be supported by the mission. One of
the priests is what the boys call
rooster" in the vernacular of the
country, you, in civilization, would call
him ''hard WORKER He leaves here
by the steamer G. X. Peck, for Fort
Buford, or Fort Peck, where he expects
to get six or eight ''good Indians" to
accompany him to the camp of Sitting
Bull, in hopes of inducing the old gem
tleman to return and take up his resi-
dence at the Agency. Abbott Martin is
n determined and persevering man, but
1 am very much afraid that his efforts
in this connection will be fruitless; but
he has made mp his mind to go, and
nothing will prevent him. Standing
