liability OF any future howage; we would further
representthat the portion of said road represent

there Is very feasible route over which new road
might be built. and thereby avoiding nearly all the
nils ana not materially increasing the distance We
would further declare that the public necessity and
convenience requires alterations to be made in said
road IN accordance with the following descriptions
We therefore respectfully request your Hon. Board
after due notice to all parties interested in coniunc
ton with the Hon. Board of County Commissioners

proposed routes and make the proposed alterations

County Road near its junction with the road leading
over johnson hill lin Poland) thence easterly upon
the north side of said County Road on the nearest
feasible route to the same until it strikes said road
near where the brook crosses it.

A CARD.

Editor Register: Please allow mo a
small space in your paper to explain,
what seems rather mystical to those
who attended our Fair this fall, and
saw the blue ribbon tied on The
Poublet & Pelton Organ.
We have the agency for the cele
brated Estey Organ, and took one out
to our Fair for exhibition, / saw
one of the aforesaid organs there,
but did not worry myself in the
least, as knew that any one who
was the least Judge of music what
ever, would have no trouble at all in
deciding between the two instru-
meuts. Imagine then my surprise,
when one of the committee came up
to me and told me that as they were
no judges of music, and had no one
toplay for them, they bad counted
the stops, and put the premium on
the one that had the most stops on it.
And the premium ribbon was actu.
ally tied on that organ, without
there having been a tune played on
either Of them. ] suidnothing at
the timeIas weare not-alIgmedt to in
terfere with the committee; but l
supposed of course that the matter
would be attended to by those whose
business it was TO see tosuch things.
| did not for moment suppose such
an injustice would be allowed at our
Fair. | spoke to two or three mana
gers in the hall, and they referred
me to Mr.. Howard. Ispoke to him,
and he said, the committee had put
the premium on that organ, and that
their decision was irrevocable. So |
have deemed it but justice to our
selves as agents, and The Manuf.c-
turing Company for whom we, are
working, to insert thiSexplanation
in the paper, that the people may
know that it was not through any
merit Of its own, that the Poublet &
Pelton Organ took the premium over
the Estey at our late Fair,
Very Respectfully,
Mrs. G. NJ. C.

DlED.-At the residence of her
brother, Mr.. james .Capehart, near
Point Pleasant, Vest Virginia, on
the 9th of September, 1870, Mrs.
Mary Alice Bright, in the 9th year
of her age.
She leaves to lament her loss, her
husband, Mr.. Jessie J, Bright, her
son, James Bright, her brother, Mr..
James capehart, his wife and child,
together with large circle Of rela-
tives and friends.
Atthe age of fourteen she united
with the Point Pleasant Presbyterian
Church, of which she has ever since
been a useful and consistent member.
In the oath year of her age, she
was united in marriage with Mr.. ].
j. Bright, who, with bowed head and
sorrowing heart laments her loss
Many a heart, whom her loneliness
Of character had won, unites with
tenderest sympathy in the grief that
weighs so heavily upon those who
move nearest to her in ties of blood.
In all the relations Of life, as
daughter, sister, wife, mother, rela-
tive and friend, she set lovely ex-
ample, and showed in them all that
beautiful adjoining which was the
outgrowlh of heart sanctified by
grace.
None knew her well but to love
her, aud there was that sweetness Of
character, which manifested theg
of Him whose love gave to man the
hopes of a blessed Immortality.
Whilst we grieve at our loss, in the
departure of this beloved friend, we
know that cher soul is now made
perfect in holiness and has passed
into glory" and her body has been
committed to the grave with the full
assurance of glorious resurrection.
May the Lord give US grace to fol.
low her as she followed Christ, that
though we may be separated from
her gloriied spirit for Il while, we
may be gathered with her into that
glorifed and happy state, where all
is happiness in the abode of the
blessed. II.
