John +. Shryrock, editor OF the Xanes-
vile Adrocatc, greenback organ, was
in the city to-day. In answer to the
question, "Why did you bolt the Co
lumbus Convention?' he warmed up to
the reply that but two OF the members
OF that Convcntion-Piatt and Pryor
still acknowledged any allegiance to the
transactions of the body. He said
the simple clause in that plat
form-to pay off at once
the bonded debt OF the country without
reference to the original terms OF con-
tract-was revolutionary, and did not
reflect the sentiment OF the intelligent
and true Greenbackers. The measure
did violence to the former professions
OF the party, and presaged unconditional
and humiliating defeat. 1t was from
the ranks of the laboring and produc-
ing element of the Republican party
that they hoped 10 gain numerous re-
crults, and plank in their platform
stating that all bonds should be
peremptorily recalled, would disgust
and estrange them. He believed that
the bonds should be recalled when due,
and the further issue OF refunding bonds
stopped. That is the doctrine OF the
Ewing Democracy, though he would not
consent to vote for Ewing rs yet. In
the light of the recent action ot the
Greenbackers of Licking county the
stronghold OF that elempnt-in promls-
ing for Ewing, should induce every true
Greenbacker TO join the army that is en-
Enthusiastically marching 10 the support
OF the gallant General and statesman.
George Camp, OF the Bellaire window
glass works, met with painful accident
to-day. \ roller he was CARRYING fell

silver OF glass ran in his
arm. Drs. Mcclure and Woodbridge
removed the glass splinter this morn

BEALLSyILLE II GALA ATTIRE.
Last Saturday, that handsome little
town was the scene OF unusual excite
ment and holiday dress, on account OF
the completion OF the p. & :. W. K. K.
10 this point. The fair daughters and
sturdy yoemanry OF Monroe, and her
scarcely less hilly sister county OF Bel
mont, gathered to see the iron horse,
which is supposed to bring on 1t wing a
new era OF prosperity to this section. y
short time since il was matter OF doubt
whether the road would be so
soon completed to this point; but
through the indeiatigable efforts of Mr.
Mooney, backed by such untiring work
ers as VIM. Armstrong and Henry Mil
Ter, coupled with the Unrivalled abilities
OF Mr.. J. Y. Hart, Superintendent Of
Construction, who averaged nearly a
mile a day with twenty-three workmen,
the road is completed and everybody re-
joices. The spikers of the last rail and
the passengers on the first train were
cheered with a unanimous voice that
fairly 'shook the heavens" The Bealls-
vile cornet band discOursed enthusias-
tic strains, and the whole scene was one
OF jollity and rejoicing. The citizens
''set up" a boss supper and in the
evening Mr.. Isaac Hill, one
of the merchants OF Beallsville,
gave the boys OF the road an excellent
supper. Three thousand people were
present The stranger visiting Bealls-
vile is forcibly struck with so much to
appreciate in the neatness of its resi-
dences, the regularity Of its paved
