Lone. In company with GEORGE
SMITH, young merchant OF Wheeling,
they proceeded 70 the house of msgis-

perform the ceremony, but sent word to
the friends OF the lady. Finding the
magistrate obdurste, the bridal party
went to the residence OF the Rev. +. M
Sturm, and he married them in q room
of the hotel. During the ceremony the
girls brother and some friends tried TO
stop the conclusion of the nuptisls, but
we're too late. AS is usually the case, the
ladies of the town are taking grest in

from various stsndpoints. 1t is said
there will be a lively time before long
among those concerned in the case.

ASExPENsIVE LUXURY.

Do our citizens know that every
worthless tramp picked up for vagrancy;
avery disorderly person arrested and
committed or discharged, every drunken
wretch who goes to the work house, costs
the taxpayers of the city about ss 6U in
the shape of fees to the officers through
whose hands he goes, exclusive of the
Police judges salary and other incl
dentsls, And do our citizens
rssliEs what great army OF
ths style of people is constantly
passing in review bsfore the Police
Judge, And do they further realize
what this army of lazy creatures is cost
ing them to keep In comparative idleness
in that abortion misnsmed the "City
WorkhouseI"
Now, we can tell the taxpayers OF this
city that here is q mine worth their
working. 1t is regular bonanza, but
the dividends do not go into their pock-
cts. Will any Councilman have the
manhood and independence to move in
this matter tomorrow nightr Let CAL
cium light be turned on the evil.

PHILADELPHIA, December 8.-Dsllas
Sanders, E,q, OF this city, hss just re-
turned from Kitty Hawk, where be
vent in search OF his brother, Psymss.
ter Carey n Sanders, who was lost on
board the sloop OF war Huron. He told
Times reporter last evening of what he
saw on that little strip OF North Caro-
ina coast where so many brave men
met their death. Riding along the sandy
shore behind team OF oxen, he saw
graves everywhere, and only one sslIor
lay with his sightless eyes staring
upwards, and his body uncov-
cred, 6 and by noon neatly
pressed mound marked MS resting place.
When the bodies of officers and men
were was he'd ashore they were taken by
fishermen and buried in the sand near
the telegraph poles thst are erected
along the coast, and far enough bsck
from the ocean never to be reached by

mounds along the shore. A party OF
i've sailors, rescued from the Huron vs-
tied all the graves, and by the orders Of
Commander Greene, OF the Norfolk
Navy Yard, opened them in turn. AS
one of the men had tsttooed the arms OF
nearly all the Huron's crew, and as sill

POPE PIO MONO.
No Great Change I'm His Condition
kuII Able to Receive Friends

LONDON, December 9.-The cores
pondent of the New York Herald, in
Rome, telegrsPhs that the Pope was able
to transact business with his Al noner,
but passed bad night, probably from
the over eXertlon. He Is troubled with
cough, and the swelling OF his legs in
creases; but nevertheless he continues TO
receive intimate friends.
ROME, December 9.-Within the past
few days slI the Italian, political and
military, authorities have received in
structions calculated to ensure 3 free and
undisturhed meeting OF the conclsve,
Although the newspaper reports concern
ing the Pope's heath are more favorable
private sdvIces indicate that his condi
tion is growing worse. He lies helpless
and although his mind is Clesr, he en-
dures great suffering, from which he is
expecting and even hoping for speedy
release.

THE MANsFIELD MURDER.
AccumuIatin9 Evidence Against the
Negro Webb-COnditIon OF the Lfy-
ing VicIfms-feeiing Among the
Earmars

MANSFIELD, o., December 8.-Webb
the alleged Perpetrstor of the fendish
murder of the FInney family, was ar
rsigned bsfors the Mayor to-day, plead
not guilty, and was remsnded to Jail TO
await o trial before the court now in ses-
sion. His case will be taken up the first
of the week. A daughter, aged twelve
years, of Rev. j. p. Finney, son of the
murdered man, testified before the ooro-
ner's jury, and gave description of the
clothing worn by the murderer and his
appearance on the night of the deco, aud
this exactly corresponds with that worn
by the negro Webb the next morning
when arrested. The child has net as yet
been confronted with the fiend. Her
description leaves no doubt as to his iden-
tifcstlon by her when the case comes
up.
Webb, In an interview this morning,
maintained q sulleD silence. He is 8
low -browed, misunderstanding fellow,
and is evidently desperate man. The
wife of Webb, and woman by the
usme of STAN bsugh, who wsre in his
house together on the night of the mur.
der, have no knowledge OF his being st
home during the hours at which the desd
WAS committed.
The elder Mrs. Flnuey is slowly sink
ing, and will probably die tonight. The
remaining members of the family will
probably recover. The excitement slI
over the county is intense, particularly
among the farming community, and
should developments be made such ss are
anticipated, the people may tske the law
into their own hands. Tne tunersl OF
Mr.. Fnney took place to-day and was

EDUCATIONAL MEETING AT
WASHINGTON.

There is an Educational Association
which embraces, or is intended to em-
brace, the chief educators OF the coun-
try-such as State Superintendents and
successful and Intelligent teachers gener.
ally. 1t meets annually, we believe, in
May. The last meeting was held in the
city of Louisville, last spring. Connect
ed with this Association is another,
which we might call q higher de-
gree Of the same order. This
Is called the Department Of
Superintendents, and occupies some
such relation to the main one as the
knights Templsr do to the Masonic
Order. This branch of the Association
will hold session in Washington City,
this week, and West Virginia and
Wheeling will be represented in it By
President PESDLETos, Superintendent
of the Free Schools OF the State, and
Prof. j. Q. HKRvEY, Superintendent OF
the schoola of this city. 1t Is possible
that other distinguished educators will be
in attendance from other portions OF this
State.
The object of this meeting is to give
the superintendents of schools through
out the country an opportunity to COM
pare notes as to the best methods OF gov.
erning schools, impsrting instruction
SC, and to discuss propositions for i'm
provement in the great WORK. The
meeting being at Washington has no
significance; as the Association has no
hobby to enforce upon the attention OF
Congress. So far as we know,
or SO far ss Prot. HERVEY-
with whom we had conversation
ton on the subject on Ssturdsy-knew,
the Association don't propose to meddle
with the question OF a national educa-
tionsl system, as recon- mended in one Of
President GEAST's messages, nor is it 8
propsgstor OF the national university
notion, which Mr.. HAYES seeks to tssten
upon the country at the expense of the
public treasury.

HOW's BUSINESS 2

Business IS dull, says the merchsnt,
srd, therefore he sits down ara grum'
sleS. But that is no way to
make business brisk. Wheeling may not
be as fsvorsbly situated for
commercial city, as she is for manu-
featuring one; but that the volume of her
commercial business might be very great
ly enlarged, thele is little reason to
doubt. When BUSINESS Is dull, new
methods n ust be resorted TO, to revive
it. More capital must be invested, greater
energy employed, increased activity re-
sorted to in hunting up customers Com
mercial travellers must push their way
into every nook and corner, far and nea-;
large stocks of goods should be
available to throw upon the market to
force trade in this direction. Wheeling
has a new outlet to small trade IN the
completion of the Washington and
WsyDesburg railroad. She should i'm
prove it to the utmost. Another field
larger and richer, will soon be opened to
her by the Wheeling and Tuscarawss
road. Even now our merchants should
be making their names familiar to
the people inbsbiting the country
penetrated by that route. Then the
selds we already have should be worked
with more energy, more activity, more
seal, mora persistency. Trade can be
enlarged by cultivation. Where one
blade of grass now grows, commercially
speaking, another blade should be
caused to spring up.
Ne are aware that in some branches
OF trade Wheeling already stands high; ;
but other branches are iorely in need
Of new capital and new impetus. Every
dollar added to the business cspitsl OF
the city will benefit the dollars already
Invested. We want additional induce.
ments for the country merchant to look
'o Wheeling for his supplies. We want
him to look here, not alone for his nails,
and hardware, and glassware, and drugs,
and groceries, but for all his supplies.
We want him to not only know he
can replenish his stock by coming to
This market, but that he can do so on
more favorable terms than in any other
city.
