TIE GREGG CAsE.-Iuasmuch as Consid.
cradle interest is taken In the case OF
Elihu Gregg, who has been twice under
sentence OF death for burning the Preston
County Court House. and Is now detained
in the Waynesburg pa Jail as fugitive
from Justice, We reproduce the following
accounted his capture from the Waynes-
burg Republican:
Gregg, after his escape, made his way
to the Western States, and was in Canada
while also; but for the past two or three
years he has been lettering about the east
end OF Greene county and over on the
Fayette side. Last May Sheriff Ford, OF
Preston county, accompanied by W. q.
Morley, Esq, Prosecuting, Attorney OF
that county, came over to Greene cOun-
ty to consult and advise with Sher-
if Dinsmore, OF this county, the
latter having received warrant from Gov
ernor IIartranft for the arrest OF Gregg,
and move was made while they were
here to get hold OF him. They did not
succeed, however, and thewarrant still re-
manned in the hands OF our Sheriff, with
the understanding agreed upon, that he
was to keep on the watch for the culprit
and arrest him il opportunity offered,
Tuesday OF last week, the Sheriff getting u
hint as to Gregg's whereabouts, proceeded
alone to the house OF Mr.. Alfree, in the
east end OF the county, Mr.. Alfree being q
son-in-law OF the fugitive, and there found
the man for whom he was armed with d
warrant. The Sheriff having had con
siderable business with Mr.. Alfree
in the settlement OF the Vesuvious
Manufacturing Company, of which firm
he wasra member, no suspicion was
aroused at the appearance Of the officer
and he was formally introduced TO Gregg
the apples were set up, and good social
time was had. The subject OF the arrest
of the latter was freely discussed (unsuspi
ciously BY Gregg, and the Sheriff asked
him ii an officer from West Virginia were
to come upon him il he would give himself
up; he replied that he would. Aftera little

the old man that he was u prisoner, and

The Sheriff then searched the prisoner

THE PAXTON FOUNTAINS DEMONSTRATION.
There was to have been meeting OF the
Council Committee on the Paxton Foun-
tain last night, but the members of the
committee did not pan out largely, only
two or three putting in an appearance.
OfCOurse, us no quorum was present, no
business was transacted, hut it is un-
derstood that the committee con-
slider it advisable to dispense with
the proposed parade, inasmuch as
the responses to the numerous in
vitations issued to societies to participate
were such that hut slim turnout was ex-
pccted. We understand that OF the twenty
or thirty invitations issued, answers were
received from only seven or eight, and
those were such rs to leave the matter in
doubt whether or not they would really
parade. The ceremonies at the Capitol,
mention OF which has been made hereto.
fore, will take place rs announced.

KILLED on THE 7. W. < KY.-Thc train
on the 2. W. & KY, leaving Wheeling at
4:47 ran down and knocked off the track
II Mrs. Mclaughlin, of Wcllsburg. The
accident happened about two squares

with n little child OF Mr. McIIcnry'sin her
arms attempted to cross the road when
she was struck by the engine and thrown
from the track. Capt. TAFT stopped his
train, and with some Of his pcn carried
the woman to her house, close by, and sent
for doctor. Her arm was broken and
the fatal injury was sustained about her
head. The child, beyond slight bruisc,
was uninjured. Mrs. Mclaughlin lived
only n short time. No fault attaches to the
engineer The lady was somewhat deaf

p SOMETHING AB0IT UYSTHRS.-When q
man has gathered together sufficient
wherewith to purchase for himself half
stew ofoysters, and, in Sase he does pur-
chase them (some persons who think the
money could be made to purchase more
hilaritv would advise against squandering
it in that way is it not with greater
relish that he views the steaming dish
feeling possessed OF the whole history and
present status OF the oyster trade and the
ability to mOralize upon it TO the urbane
caterer in such a patronizing manner as
probably to gain reduction in the charge?
Being assured that great numbers oil peO-
pie are thus fortunate in their possessions,
and feeling sme that they would be CRATE
full for the power such knowledge would
give them, we yesterday talked TO num-
Der OF prominent oyster dealers upon the
subject, and take pleasure in giving the re-
suit.
The dealers generally report the trade
unusually dull for the time OF year, and
state that during the months OF September
and October OF last year fully twice the
amount OF business was done US the cor
responding months Of this year. OF course
the cause of the present depression was
stated to be the rather mild weather,
which is not conducive either to the pres
ervation of or the appetite for oysters. All
the dealers cOnversed with agreed that the
best way to buy oysters is in the can; that
while it was the prevailing opinion that it
was much cheaper to buy them open, in
tubs or buckets, it was an erroneous one.
1t is thought that the Wheeling consum-
ers OF the delicious bivalve will not be ma
terially Inconvenience by the strike Ofthe
''shuckets" at Baltimore, which has been
in progress for several days, inasmuch as
the orders OF our dealers are filed as
promptly as ever, and the strike willard
~ continue much longer There has, at
least, been no change in prices as yet, as
has been the case heretofore upon the oc-
casion OF these strikes. Bulk oysters are
plenty, ut twenty-five cents per quart, and
canned bring from twenty to forty cents.
What is known Us the select" oyster
sometimes 60 even higher than the max
imum sum named.
A new industry has appeared in the
past year or two Us an Otishoot OF the oys-
Ter trade. The juicy bivalve is hawkcd
about on the street by peddlers, and
families living in the most remote parts OF
the city can be served daily,at the market
rates, with ''oysters fresh and fine"
This is a great convenience no doubt to
many, and has been the means OF introduce
ing the oyster where otherwise it might
have been unknown. The oyster is last
becoming the popular American diet.
