Mr.. EDITOR-You have, no doubt,
heard of the defeat of Abram Lash, the
Republican candidate for Treasurer of
Pease township, and are at Il loss to ac-
count for it, and in justice TO Captain
| ash desire to give you the facts at
tending that defeat. In the first place
Mr.. John l.. Vanpelt was the regular
nominee for that Office, and the tickets
were printed and a great many dis
tributed bearing his name, when on
Saturday evening he positively refused
10 be cindidd'e, and at the urgent so
Iicitatiun of leading Republicans, Capt.
Lash permitted his name to be placed
upon the tickets, and a new lot WAS
printed and distributed, and many not
knowing Of the change, cast the bal
lots bearing Vanpelt's name, besides a
great many did not know that Lash
was n candidate, and being warm per-
IsOnal friends of Mr.. Medill, who is
very popular man, voted for him,
thereby drawing from Lash and de-
feGted him. Had Lash had an equal
chance with the Others on tine Repub-
licsn ticket, the result would have
been otherwise, and while we should
have rejoicpd over his election we are
gratiiied to know that in Mr.. G. w.
M"dll we have gentleman who has
heretofore given entire satisfaction,
and who will continue to discharge the
duties of his office in satisfactory
manner. T..

OK Saturday night last, some hard hearted
wretch left female child in the barn yard at
the Infrmary. John Herd, one of the at
tachees of the building, had occasion to be
out late, and when on the way to the stable,
he discovered something lying before him,
and upon examination, it proved to be bright
little girl, about two years old, which was
wrapped up in table cover. 1t had appa
rently been asleep, and at the approach Of
Herd, the child was startled and ran away
from him. The little founding was taken to
the house and properly cared for, otherwise
it would have probably perished before morn
ing. 1t has not transpired how it got there or
TO WHOM il belongs.

The election in St. Clairsville, on Monday,
brought out 19j votes, and it was devoid of
especial interest, save an unnecessary contest
ehich was precipitated by some of the Dlrec-
tors OF the st. Clairsville Narrow Gauge, who
imagined that the only councilman on the Re
pa ,Iican ticket whose name was not on the
Dem cratic ticket, was inimical to tn ir in
tercsts \ great deal Of misrepresentation,
not to say downright lying was INDUCED in
by the representatives of the road, by which
they succeeded in electing their candidate
upon the Democratic ticket, by the meager
majority of eight votes. The Republican
candidate for Mayor vas successful by three
majority, resul! highly gratifying. Follow p
ing is the result:
