OUR young friend A. L. Purinton
has recently been nominated for In
dian Agent to the Five Nations.
This is a responsible position and re-
quires decided and versatile ability
to discharge it's duties properly
These gifts Mr. Parinton has with
the further requisite of always dis
charging his duty conscientiously
and without fear or favor under all
circumstances. If he should accept
the position he will be an exception
to the general Indian Agent We
learn that he is also rendered a pro
fessorship in an institution in Con
necticut, which he will most likely
accept. He is one Of the few who
possess the happy faculty of being a
success at whatever he undertakes.

DANGERoUs.-Little George John
son ("Gigger' has goat which he
drives around town in little wagon.
This is good sport for "Ginger," and
is in itself innocent and harmless.
But on Monday it came near being
the last Of "Ginger" and the goat.
He was driving very quietly down
Main street at very peaceful gait,
but when he turned into Chancery
Row the goat struck a livelier pace,
and ran in close proximity TO the
heels of horse tied to the court
house paling, causing it to kick
furiously at Ginger's head, missing it
only about foot. The horse was SO
frightened that it was some time be-
fore he could be quieted, and not I'M
til he had kicked the saddle off. Such
harmless sport is sometimes followed
by the most direful results, and such
scare crows should be kept off the
streets.

among their relatives, but stopping

b. Lazier. Rev. Hunter is q broth
er-in-law of our good hearted Mayor,
Hon. Joseph Moreland. Rev. II. has
gone away from town, but will be
back in about ten days, This fall
he with his family, will embark for
Northern China as a missionary of
the Presbyterian Church. We have
no doubt but that Rev. Hunter is an
able minister and is trying to do his
Masters work but our opinion is that
there is plenty of Missionary work to
be done in his native land, for we
have plenty of heather Chinese here,
and they are not natives Of China
either. There are plenty of them in
West Virginia. If they would sub
scribe, pay for and read more news
papers, they would not be SO hea-
flemish, but more intelligent and
better citizens.

WHEAT BURNED.-On last Thurs
day evening, during the storm, the
lightning struck two stacks of wheat
belonging to Barney Colvert, short
distance below Collins Ferry. Each
stack contained about two hundred
dozen of wheat, and was Mr. Colvert' S
entire crop. We heartily sympathize
with any one who, after year of
patient toll and waiting, must see
the results of his labor swept away
in an hour.
