the principal mines have difficulty
in keeping their full force OF men at work

required number.

STEAM HEATING.

The city Council of Baltimore has
granted a company the right to lay
mains and pipes for heating and other
purposes by the Holly system. Why
do not some enterprising capitalists in
Wheeling, who complain OF the lack OF
opportunities for business investments,
take hold of this project? Here Is a
chance 10 secure q franchise from the
city that will be more profitable than
any gas works ever were. IL would,
doubtless, be grantednOw almost iorthe
asking. But our capitalists will wait
tin some foreign company comes in and
either obtains the franchise, or by COM
pctins for it, induces the city to put up
the price.
The Holly system is no longer an
experiment in acity OF this size. 1t has
been abundantly tested and in Wheel
ing. which is stretched out in a straight
line. a single main along Main or
Market street, would doubtless be
sufficient 10 heat the entire city. II
could bee more chcaply established in
this city, perhaps, than in most others.
II ought to become very popular in a
place where reducing the volume Of
smoke that aflicts il, would be anObject,
II would do this by dispensing with
fires in dwelling houses, and leave the
manufactures a monopoly of the smoke
business. Let us have-steam.

CROP PROSPECT.

We have never known a season in
which at some poirt, either in the grow
ing or rcaping Of the crops, there didnot
occur some adverse conditions that set
the timid TO predicting a famine. The
season has either been too forward or
too backward There have either been
FROST, or certain iudicatiousoi IL. There
ha, been too much rain or a blighting
drouth.
The fact is that q discerning Proyi-
dcuce iutericrcs i'm some way every
season with too rank growth oivegcta-
ton. II comes along with pruning
hook i'm the shape Of black most, and
relieves the oycrburdened fruit trees OF
part of their proiuct, SO that they will
have uourishmeut sufficient To- fully ma
turr what remains. Or it withholds the
stimulating showers So that only part
Of the seed which the farmer has sown
may terminate and give him an ahuud-
amt crop Notwithstanding the ground
and dwaring the growth.
There has never been a season absC-
lutcIy propitious i'm all It's conditions.
The processes ami bcstowmoutS Of ma
turr are never So lavish as % make men
Indifferent as % their source of supply,
or relieve them from the operation Of
the divine decree that they shall eat
bread i'm the sweat of their browS.
Some localities are barren, and others
thereby find q market for their surplus,
AMI i'm the general average there has al
wavs been. and probably always will be,
i'm this country a sufficient productive
ness i'm every season 10 feed its popula-
ton chcaply, and with something to
spare.
But there are some seasons more
fruitful than others The indications
arr being watched with ea-crucSS % de-
trrmiue whether this one will Zoe abuuG-
ant or otherwise.
II has been somewhat backward, and
I'm many localitir, dry. But a backward
season generally iulils the Old Tr.vtrb
that "a bad beginning makes a good
ending" OF fruit, indeed il is probable
that the crops will be unusually abund-
ant, rs the late season prevented the
freezing OF the early buds that frequent
Is occurs when they come out prema-
turely and are caught bv the late iroSts.
In fact, notwithstanding the croaking
now heard here and there, the indica-
tons for a full harvest are Just about As
good as they ever are. Within the past
ten DAYS there has been a magical quick
ening Of vegetation, the spring has fair
Iy opened, the ground has been thor
oughly warmed, and when the showers
come, as they are now coming, the
backwardness of the season will be Tor
gotten. Altogether, there is cause for
congratulatiOn, and every reason to ex-
expect an abundant harvest.

THE New York san says the investi-
CATION into the charges against JOIN |.
DAVENPORT has brought out 4 dangerous
feature of the Federal election laws. 1t
was proved that DAvENPoRT had issued
some of the warrants against naturalized
citizens without even going through the
iormality of sworn complaint. 1t is
true one Of his clerks had copied list
of naturalized citizens, and sworn to
complaints in bunch. But SO careless
~ was the wholesale system Of arrests
conducted, that DAVENPORT did not al
fix his jurat to some of the complaints.
When this came out in evidence,
DAVENPORT exclaimed: "Weil, what
of it? The law does not even re-
quire me to have written
complaint in order TO issue a warrant.
Now, it is a serious matter for natur-
allied voters, and in fact for all voters,
that man like DAvTNroEU may orier
arrests on the eve Of election by merely
an oral charge, without examination by
any committing magistrate except the
man who issues it. Ii the Republicans
i'm Congress choose to defeat the appro-
priation bills for the purpose OF keeping
such a power in the hands Of their crea-
lures, let them take the responsibility.

MORE POLITICAL STATES.
The Political Representations
of n Parkersburg Correspond
ent Upon the State Campaign


The POl1tlcal frOSnOstlcaIiOhs
of n Parkersburg Correspond
ent Upon the State Campaign
of 1850.
A Parkersburg correspondent OF the
Writ County Appeal INDUCES in very
lengthy epistle, written in rambling,
rollicking, hap-hazard style, regarding
the candidates for the several State
offices at the next general election, from
which we clip some extracts and give
them to our readers for what they are
worth.
In regard to the candidates for Gov
ernor he speculates as follows:
As successor to Governor Matthews,
have heard the names OF Hon. c. J.
Faulkner, of Berkeley county, Hon. j..
J. Chipley, of Hardy, Hon. Geo. JefI'ries,
of Ohio, W. n. Chancellor, OF Wood,
and Hon. Robert White, our present
Attorney General. OF all this array OF
GOOD men-any Of whom would reflect
credit on our State, Mr.. Faulkner has
the lead. lie has a greater fol-
lowing than any one or all the
other aspirants, and should he re-
ceive the nomination and be elected
and of this there is but little dOubt-he
would bring to the GubernatOrial chair
more ability than any other person upon
whom the office could fall. He Will
enter the nominating convention with a
solid delegation from the Eastern Pan
Handle, and will also receive a sprInk-
ling support in the upper part OF the
State, along the b. & o. railroad, and
from this and the Southern and lower
portion of the State, he will receive a
rousing support.
Joseph S. Miller, Auditor OF State, is
a candidate for reelection. lie Is one OF
the most atiable, conscientious and
watchiul officers OurState ever had. His
office is one to which many aspire and
but few are qualified. l have not learned
of any one aspiring to the Office, nor do
l believe any one has any hopes OF
success.
For Treasurer, Mr.. Thomas j. West,
the present incumbent, is candidate
for reelection, and the very honest ana
satisfactory manner in which he has dis
charged the duties of the Office will
doubtless secure him a denomination.
Hon. l. L. EnOch, OF your county, has
also been favOrably mentioned as a
candidate for the position, but | have
been informed that he would decline
allowing his name used in opposition to
Mr.. West.
For State Superintendent Of Free
Schools, Prof w. X. PendletOn will be
a candidate for denomination, nOtwith-
standing the erroneous report OF his be-
ing opposed to the free schools, which
has been going the rounds of the news
papers. His whole life has been
spent in the cause of education, and ut
present he is at the head OF one among
the best educational institutions OF the
country.

MODERN RIRLE.
First Chapter of Genesis.

We have stopped publishing long
sermons, but during the past week
had our attention called to the new
Bible, which is supposed to be inspir-
ed by sweet reasonableness. We are
GLAD to state that it has not and will
not meet with much encouragement,
even in this age of sin. Carefully
reading the first chapter OF Genesis,
we CLEANED about as follows:
First. There never was a begin
ming. ..-... ... .....s
Second. And Cosmos was homo
geneous and undifferentiated, and
somehow or another evolution began
