Every day brings events imper-
tant TO some. To-day q Mr.. Holly,
an employee Of the Parkcrsbnrg
Railroad Bridge Company, fell
from the top Of th9 bridge, q dis
lance Of SIS feet, fractllring both
wrists and bruising him..intornally,
50 That lie died in low hours.
The bridge crosses the Ohio river,
and runs along and over 9Th street,
on which tho writer resides. The
accident was but u few yards from
the writer's house. He leaves u
wife and three children. "In the
midst Of life We aro in DEATH"
A crowd Of citizens, ofall par
ties, assembled this oycning at the
Court House to hear an address
from Hon. Jacob B. Jackson, who
has just returned from Martins
burg rs n nominee for the Cover
norship of West Virginia. The
audience was very large, and much
enthusiasm was exhibited, Colo
mel Ben Wilson and others also a2-
dressed the meeting.
The writer has recently taken q
trip to Pennsylvania, visiting sew
oral Of his sons; and preaching at
Butler, which he left moro than
twelve years ago, after laboring
there about IS years in ono pas
toral charge. Butler county was, a
few years ago, the greatest oil dis
trict in Tho world. Butler, tho cap
it'll town, rose as by magic, oil
men making it their residence.
Grand residences were built, and
prosperity crowned it. But now
50 good houses arc tcnantloss from
decrease ofpopulation, A boauti-
full now house, built and inishad..in
exquisite taste and elegant style,
some 3 years ago, has never been
occupied. The oil did it. Butler
still looks new and beautiful.
The writer was greeted by his old
friends of all religious denomina-
tons, who crowded to tho church
where he OBLIGATED, for old friend
ships sake.

The Democrats of the 18th district of Baltimore
county, who favor the nomination of the Delaware
statesman for President, met Saturday, April 10TH
in room over the upper store of w o. b. Wright,
at Fork Meeting, and organized Bayard Club, by
electing the following officers President-Joseph

S. Wright. Corresponding Secretary-James A,
Lindsay. Treasurer-RobertD worth. Sergeant
at Arms-W. $. Dampman. Executive Committee
George Il. Scarf, Thomas IL. Lawrence and
Charles Grover. An additional committee of Ave
was appointed by the President, consisting of Jo-
seph II. Gorsuch, G. l.. Wright, II. Dilworth, j. Il.
Wright and &. Grover, for the purpose of procur-
ing for club purposes, it being the intention
to meet in different sections of the district.
The resolutions adopted were credit to the
club and to the Democrats of Baltimore county.
They condemn on the one hand the monarchical
tendencies of Republican rule, on the other en-
treating the Democrats of the whole country to
be true to themselves, true to the time-honOred
principles of the Democratic party true to their
country and their Constitution, by rallying to the
standard of Thomas i. Bayard, the champion of
the Constitution and the rights of the people: but
in all cases urging the necessity of solid adhe-
renee to the nominees of the coming Democratic
convention, as against the would-be tlSnrpatiOn
