THE murky waters of the political pool

The murky waters of the political pool at
Bellaire are most terribly troubled'at present,
with good show. for one of the funniest as
well as one of the bitterest local political
fights ever held in that city. Either the
WOrkingmen have gobbled the Democrats or
the Democrats have gobbled the Working
men, which, no one can tell until after the
Democratic nominations this evening. Ii
Cooper is taken up by the straight laced De-
mocracy it is meoted that there will be an
independent candidate backed up by a nu-
merical strength, making him formidable, and
if be is not, well, we'll tell you about that in
another issue The Republican candidate for
Mayor, the present incumbent, Joel Strahl, is
most unexceptionable in every respect, honest
and capable, and whose only enemies are
those to whom he has meted out that justice
the interests of the community demanded.

Tne BuEDETr TRANsPoRTATIoN COMPANY.
We have heretofore made mention of a
project by which we can have cheap and re-
liable transportation over the National pike,
and to that end parties interested in the mat
ter held a meeting, on Monday, in the st.
Clair Hotel in this place. Mr.. j. III. Rourk,
President of the Company, y. Fl. Burdett,
inventor of the steam wagon and Samuel
Compton, of New Athens, l.. B. Jackson of
Philadelphia, and others were in attendance.
These gentlemen express determination to
put the steam wagon and cars on the road
within few months. 1t is their present in
tention to run between this place and Cam
briuge, and make connections here with the
Bellaire and st. Clairsville narrow gauge rail-
road for Bellaire and Wheeling. There is
nothing in the railroad or transportation line
that we know Of, that is of more general inter
est the to people along the Nat onal road than
this Burdett transportation, and of more
benefit. 1t is therefore to the interest of
every farmer and resident along the pike be
tween Cambridge and st. iClairsyille to in
vestigate this matter.

The Foundry Revival.

Never since the days when Nettleton held
his revival meetings, or since the great
awakening in 1853, when In New York and
other States business was suspended and
thousands were converted, has greater re-
vival occurred than Is now progressing, day
and night, at Foundry NJ f. Church. The
revival service last night was one of wonderful
power. The young evangelist, Rev. Thomas
Harrison, gave an account of his conversion,
which took place in his sixteenth year.
While relating his experience the in
tcrcst became intense, and the altar was
filled with seekers of religion. Eight persons
were converted. Tho interest In this great
revival has become so great that persons come
the distance Of n hundred miles to attend tho
meetings. On Sabbath day the doors will h,
opened one hour previous to the revival an |
on Monday six services are 10 b. hold. Th ,
influence from these meetings las becon . so
powerful In this city that yesterday man
who Is employed In one Of tho Departments,
whilo at work in the office, was converted, and
