VENT, VIDI, VIcI. Such is now the
cry OF the West Virginia editors who
attended the Association Just closed in
Wheeling. And, while such may be
their thoughts, they have good grounds
TO think well OF the reception and en-
tertainment extended to them by the
citizens of Wheeling. In fact, from
what we can gather, it seems that the
city, as well as the editors, were on
their good behavior.-TUckeT County
