To the editors ofAe FaiJat Messenger:
Amid the clamor about q successor to Gen.
Hunton allow me to suggest that the Game of
our late Lieut.. Governor, Henry W. Thomas
of our own county, ought to receive large
measure of consideration. He has never yet
been adequately rewarded FIR the faithful SER
vice to his State and county for the largest por.
tou # his active life. He has been the dray
horse long cough. NV let the people be lst
aud give him something that will pay for the
work What more appropriate aud i,iog than

of this district or of the State; the whole would
be hooored by his cleo ion. JUSTICE.

sin and Tuck,

The Phaeton and Telegram backed out
from the wharf together yesterday after
noon, and in turning round to get their
heads down stream, locked arms" as it
were, and there they stuck. The boats
finally got their prows pointed. Capt.
Dillon and Pilot Cats pulled their re-
spectlve bell ropes to go ahead sinful
tsneously, and some one of the many es-
ger spectators on the wharf said he
thought he heard blank yell down the
pipe TO the engineer, "Give her III"
b that as it may, the two s,esners
fairly flew, and the heavy, dense olsck
columns of smoke were rising in style
that would have done justice to the
Fhos. Swan and Buckeye State (crsck
steamers OF the Wheeling and
Louisville and Pittfburgh and Gin
clnnati ines) in days of yore,
when backing out together. The two
boats kept side by side as if they were
dashed, neither apparently giving an
inch to the other until they got abreast
of West Wheeling, when signal to
land caused the Telegram to part CON-
pany with her sttectionste companion,
while tie Pha!on proceeded down
stream.
