Go join in the glittering crowd,

Go bind the brows of thy summer,

With garlands and roses rare;
But come when the roses fade, a.t
And each thorn has left it's smart,
For l have sprig of forget-me-not,

Aye, go when thy spirits are light,
Seeking others as wild and free, =.
And find if thou canst another one ai7
That always thine own wall be; IA
But come, if thy search in vain,
And thy weeriness panteth for rest;

WANTS THE COUNTY SEAT RE-
MOVED.

The Ohio Valley Ne,cs is advocating
the removal of the Belmont county
seat from st. Clairsville to Bellaire. 1t
says in support of its motion:
"Since the construction of the st.
Clairsville and Bellaire narrow guage
railroad, the morning 'buss' from
Wheeling to st. Clairsvflle has been
taken off, and the Inconvenience OF get
ting to the county seat is so materially
increased, our people are asking the
question, what advantage results from
keeping the seat ofjustice for the county
at the inaccessible inland town OF st.
Clairsville.
Belaire is the center Of the railway
system OF the county; she has a popu-
lation bordering on 5000, and is III
creasing rapidly; it is easy OF access to
the entire population living on the line
of the Central Ohio division OF the b.
& o. road, including GAINESVILLE, the
second town in the county, while the
Bellaire and Southwestern road, now
rapidly approaching completion, at
least to the southwestern part OF the
county, would make it very accessible
to the people of that region. The {. x
2. road gives to the people OF this town
ship all the facilities for reaching Bel
laire that we could desire.

A HANDSOME RECORD.

The following conversation was re-
Gently had between Herald reporter
and DR.. Crow, who is suspected OF be
ing associated with DR.. CHRISTIAN i'll the
exhuming of the remains OF STEWART
In answer to question in regard to his
connection with that he says:
at is true was partner Of Chris
tan in the resurrection business, and
am still prepared to furnish bodies tC
colleges at S25 per capita, or to any rell.
able parties in quest of such subjects. u
From your acquaintance with Chris
tian, do YOU suppose he had any hand
in the robbery of Stewards grave
~ would not like to say whether |
think so or not.
"IIave you any private knowledge OF
your own concerning the robbery
Il will neither say that | have or that
| have not, but | will agree to find
Stewards remains for Judge Hilton
without any police interference for
100000"
Wouldn't you be content with about
half that sum-
Not with a dollar less. Such a
chance as this is not to be lightly thrown
away, because, like the Centennial, it
don't come again in lifetime
"llave you any theory rs to the rob
berry of the Stewart vault and the
method adopted by the robbers in car
rying away the body?"
"The theory would amount to moth
ing. ANY sensible rcsurrectionist
would put the remains in a bag, sling it
across his shoulder and walk along the
streets with it unconcernedly. \ con-
federate might go ahead of him to look
ont for the police and steer around them
the best way possible"
Would not the smell attract atten-
tion?"
"No; there is a great mistake about
that. The smell would be noticed by a
person coming close to the man with
the bag on his shoulder; but he could
keep away from contact with people and
take clear course"
Are YOU or Christian the greater eX-
pert in reSurrccting bodies
81 consider | am. have been at it
twenty wears, and in that time have
raised fifty or sixty stiffs every winter
and never got caught; but Christian got
nabbed three or four times. The trouble
with him is he lacks caution
"Why is it the Washington police
give YOU such bad name
Because | had them all suspended
and investigated three years ago. I in
vented the game called the Centennial,
of which they received a considerable
percentage, for the reason that it was
illegal and it was necessary 10 bride
them to keep their mouths shut and
allow the game to 60 on. They Were
whitewashed and put back again and
have never liked me since for showing
them up and now their object is to
spread damaging reports OF my char
acter. / am graduate of the Jefferson
Medical College OF Philadelphia, also OF
the National Medical College of Wash
ington. was chief editor of the Wash
ington Daily Ne,cs, and am now travel
ling, lecturing on the laws of health, in
connection with the Washington
Medical Institute. The statement that
| was arrested for malpractice is false,
and the game of Centennial which |
invented is the only excuse for calling
me a gambler" The Doctor, having
thus relieved himself, went away happy.

WE have received the first number OF
The West Virginia Jo,rndl V Ed"cdtion,
published at Morgantown, by Fleming
d Morgan, and edited by Rev. j. k.
Thompson, President OF the West Nir-
ginia University.
The general "make up" OF the Jour"0t
both as to matter and manner is more
than usually meritOrious and attractive
for the first issue. 1t is rcplctc with
first-class original and selected matter in
the line of its mission. 1t defines It's
purpose and scope not to be 4 political
paper, nor a religious paper in denom-
national or ecclesiastical sense, nor yet
local paper or University organ, but
its aim and mission is thus we'll cx-
pressed:
Education. in the brOadest, fullest,
best sense of that word, will be the
theme of this Journal. Whatever edu-
cation includes, this paper aspires to
include. The awakening, unfolding,
Strengthening, sharpening, developing,
enriching, refining OF all the powers Of
manhood is the ideal education. The
body, its health, grace, vigor, activity,
power to endure exertion; the intellect,
its perceptive, reflective, discursive,
generalizing, intuitive and imaginative
faculties, the conditions other highest,
richest culture; the emotions, the affec-
tons, the mighty passions OF the soul !;
the will, its power over circumstances,
the conditions its freedom and growth,
its vital relation to character; the moral
sense, in its revelation OF the qualities
of right and wrong in human conduct !;
the deep, strong, pure religious yearn-
ings and aspirations of the spirit olman !;
these are the themes cognate to cduca-
ton, and therefore appropriate to this
Journal"
We welcome the Joundl among the
list OF our exchanges and predict for it Il
prosperous career under its able and
clear-headed editor.

OUR HOLIDAYS.

Our National Thanksgiving was OBJ
served throughout the length and
breadth of the country with unusual
zest and genuine rejoicing. The news
papers from every section come in laden
with accounts of popular gatherings and
eloquent discources, with music and
praise in the churches.
We regard it as healthy sign OF the
times that our people are thus becoming
more and more disposed to give them
selves up to these seasons OF rest and
relaxation from business, and indulge
in ebulitions of JOY and gratitude OF a
moral and social nature. With the ever
increasing tendency to push business
pursuits on the high pressure system,
these periodical breaks in secular affairs
become necessary safety-valves to the
national energy.
With the Thanksgiving season past,
the nation, and indeed the Christian
world will be looking forward to the
near approach OF our Christmas festival,
the choicest and most sacred OF the year.
There is something in the word Christ
mas that awakens sweet memories and
pleasant expectations in the most
stolid and stoical OF every grade OF
humanity. 1t isa word that belongs
alike to every race, class and condition;
to every sect and creed OF christendom;
and to all it comes with sweet SAVIOR
of sanctity that embalms it in perpetual
memory. Its story is so simple, al
though so solemn, that the little prattler
at its mothers knee appreciates and
has continued to pronounce it in unison
with all humanity through eighteen
hundred years. And it has not yet
grown old 1t will be repeated around
millions of hearthstones at the coming
season with the same pathos and fresh
ness as when whispered among the
shepherds at the natal hour.
