Echoes from Christmas-The Wedding
Boom-Election of Oflcers-The New
Glass House, sc.
Christmas passed off pleasantly in our
little city; there was nothing special IN
the way OF amusements, save the enter
tainments of the different Sunday
schools. The NJ. f., Presbyterian and
Disciples Sunday schools held Celebra-
tions on Christmas evening, and the
Episcopal on Friday evening. All were
well attended, and very much enjoyed
by the little folks.
Several marriages occurred during
the week, as follows: On the 23d, Mr..
John Sham to Miss Sarah II. Ferrel, by
the Rev. A. l.. Kendall; on the 25th,
Mr.. Alex Lewis to Miss Eliza j. Owen,
bv Rev. d. w. Calderwood, and Mr.. Geo.
+. Stewart to Miss Isabel Mayhall, by
Rev. w. NJ. Grimes, and on the 9th,
Mr.. Augustus Weckerly to Miss Ger
trude Knowe, by Rev. Stephen Huber.
Mr.. Thomas Everett has sold to Mr..
BENJAMIN Harvey the eligible building
lot on Water street, Immediately above
the residence OF c. II. Bracken; consid-
Grafton, 500. We understand Mr.. Har.
vey proposes to erect a dwelling house
thereon some time soon. Invitations are
out for a grand ball at the new glass
works on January music by Kramer.
The furnaces were fired on Wednesday
evening, Uncle John Blackensop apply
ing the torch by way OF good luck, and
everything works satisfactorily. The
I.ang6tt property on Water street was
offered for sale at public auction on Sat
urday and knocked down to Eugene
Tarr, Esq, at $3.50.
At a meeting of the directors OF the
Panhandle Agricultural Society on Sat
urdav the following officers were elect
ed: James Archer, President; William
Faris, Vice President; w. c. Barclay,
Secretary; and $. George, Treasurer.
Lloyd Bowman, the well known col
ored barber, died Friday afternoon.
This was surprise to the community
as it was not generally known that he
was i'll.
Who is the Brooke county detective
/ that was taken in the other night al
Wheeling to the tune OF 500? is the
| question that now agitates the public
| mind up this way. We did not know
that any of our detective force was pos
sessed Of that much personal property

THE ATHENS
OF West Virginia-The Course
of Events There.
Correspondence of the Register.

Correspondence OF the Register
MoRGANTowN, w. VA, Dec. 25.
There is very little local news to
chronicle in these parts that could be OF
any interest to the readers of metro
politan journal, and for that reason the
REGISTER correspondent makes mis- COM
indications few and far between.
In fact it is only for the purpose q!
informing the public that the Athens OF
West Virginia still occupies a central
position in the Create-universe and OF
making knowssthe fact that your cor
respondent iSstill in the land OF the liv-
ing that we ask the privilege of occupy
ing any of the REGISTER valuable space.
The weather in this part OF the 'mor-
al Virginia" is extremely inclement. 1t
rains necessarily, and the earth is thor
oughlv saturated with water. The bot
toms have TO considerable extent tal-
len out of the dirt pavcments OF this an
cient village, and it is scarcely safe Tor
pedestrians to venture upon their peril
Gus confines unless armed with life pre-
servers.
The weather is of that slippery, sloppy
kind that gives everybody the blues. 1t
brings all the chronic cases OF rheuma-
tism, neuralgia, and tooth ache to the
front, and the piteous statements OF the
hypOchondriac and professional COM
palmer have to be listened to
with sympathy and feeling proportion
ate to their responsibility and standing
in society.
The Monongahela river is booming.
1t is on regular Christmas high
and news is brought to-day from
Hoard's Rock thatabout thirty feet OF the
outside wall of the lock has caved in.
This lock and dam was, as the public
pretty generally knows, constructed by
/ the government at an enormous cost
something over two hundred thousand
dollars and was supposed 10 be a.
durable as the West Virginia hills, but
! il turns out that the masonry, which
presents an exterior that eXcites the
| admirationIof everybody, is byno means
| what il seems to be. 1t has always
! been surmised that there were immense
| Jobs in this work and that the govern
ment's money was stolen or squandered
but the people of the vicinity have held
their peace lest appropriations should
be defeated. But now with two hun
dred thousand dollar obstruction in the
river to prevents its use as thorough
fare for trade and traffic and no pros
pect OF slack water navigation, it seem;
about time for somebody to speak out
Before the lock gave way quite
large number of RATS were fioatec
down the river by our timber men

LONDON, December 28-2:40 A. MA
portion OF the bridge across the Freth oi
Tay was blown down while train from
Edinburg to Dundee was crossing at
7:l4 o'clock last night. The gale was so
strong that steamboats, we're unable to
reach the scene OF the disaster, but sew
eral mail bags have been washed ashore,
four miles from the bridge, and there
is no doubt that the train is in
the water, The passengers who
are certainly all drowned are
variously estimated from $50 to 200 in
number.
Later The gale having moderated
somewhat, the Provost of Dundee and a
number OF leading citizens started in a
steamer to the scene OF the disaster, but
have not yet returned. The excitement
at Taybridge Station is appalling, many
thousands of people having congregated
awaiting definite news.
LONDON, December 2S.-The missing
train was seen crossing the bridge, and
then suddenly a flash OF fire became
visible. The railroad officials, in spite
of the gale, walked along the bridge
from Dundee until they found there was
a large gap, caused by the fall OF two or
three ii the largest spans.

EDISON'S LIGHT.
More Evidence OF It's Success.

NEW YoRK, December 2s.-The Herald
says: The laboratory Of Edison at Menlo
Park was brilliantly illuminated, last
night, with the new electric light, the
occasion being visit Of n number oi
the inventors personal friends. Forty
lamps were burning from from o'clock
until after ten. The effect OF the exhi.
bition was 10 convince those present
who before were sceptical that Mr.. Eii-
son had in reality produced the electric
light for household illumination. No
day is yet set tor the public exhibition,
but il Is quite probable that inside Of
week everything will be in readiness 10
be seen by all who desire 10 visit Menlo
Park. Gas stocks are still depressed
with a downward tendency.
