delphia, if sickness in his family

lures of the University and Jefferson
Medical Colleges and the Hospitals

He will retGrn in March to resume
his practice with repe@ed 4igor and

We had d pleasant call on Monday,
from Capt. j. G. Dame, General Pas
senger Agent, and Maj. NH. Hotch,
kiss, General Freight Agent, of the
c. & o. r, r, We are always glad

You can now buy your tickets Of
Judge Van Matre, the Agent, and
they will take you from here to
Huntington, without any additional
charge for steamboat fare. The same
is also true of freight intended for
this road. The time table of this
Railroad appears in our paper to-day,
Read it.
Mr.. j. L. Menagep and Mr.. Samuel
Spencer, have gone to Baltimore on
a pleasure trip. They went by the
c. & o. Road.
Mrs. r. A. Coleman, Of Cheshire,
was visiting her sister Mrs +. A.
Guthrie, in this place, the first of
the week.
Our exchanges are filed with the
usual holiday quota of accidents from
pistols in the hands of careless per-
sons. II is u fact that FIVE boys in
every ten carry deadly weapons.
No boy of the present advanced and
enlightened age can strut with
identified and distinguished air un.
less he has n pistol. The average
boy in every town, city and village
does not feel fully equipped without
one. Parents should be careful, and
not allow their children to carry pis-
tolls; and the law should be put in
force against all who do carry deadly
weapons, whether boys or men. Pts
tolls are being offered as prizes for
up clubs for boys and girls
papers and magazines, and we would
not be surprised to see them offered
in Sunday Schools as rewards for
lessons and punctual at
tendance. ave reap what we SOW"
An injunction has been granted
by Judge Smith, restraining the
present town council from counting
the vote or declaring the result, aud
giving certificates Of election to those
voted for last Thursday, for corpora
ton officers. 1t is claimed that the
election was illegally held, that the
month Of March is the proper and
legal time for holding the town cleo
ton. We await the result of this
as IL involves some very
important questions.
