TIE CHEAr MOUNTAIN MURDER.

Circuit Court of Randolph County,
for the murder of Mrs. Azariah
White, was concluded for the present,
at least, last week, the Jury failing
to agree upon verdict. The pris.
oncr was remanded to Jail to await
another trial. The Randolph Enter
prise says; IA majority of the jury
were in favor of fifteen years in the
Penitentiary, one for hanging, and
one for acquittal. The circumstances
of the case will be remembered by
many of our readers, as we gave a
long account of the murder soon af-
ter it was committed.

We SECOND THE MorIoN.-The
Richie Gazette nominatcs George p.
Sargent, the accomplished editor of
the Barbour Jefcrsoaida for clerk of
the next House of Delegates, as fol-
| lows:
1--WE propose Col. George p. Sar.
geant for Clerk of the next House of
Delegates. He hass an appearance
like Dan Webster and possesses a
voice that is cross between a bass
drum and the notes of the nightingale
deep yet sweet. 1t would be worth
a hundred dollars to every member
of the House of Delegates to have
George smile on him during the SEES
sion-this in an aggregate would be
several thousand dollars of clear gam.
George converses like Talleyrand
and throws more expression into
hand shake than Bernhardtscan in
kiss. We are for George p Sargent
for Clerk of the House of Delegates,
and we think our motion will be sec
onded by the rest of tho newspapers
in West Virginia.
GEO. c. HAYES & CO., Wal
Onut Street, have the largest and
best assortment of CIGARS and
TOBACCO in Morgantown. If
you want good smoke or chew
give them a call.
Our READERS will notice the invi-
tations given to them by numerous
merchants to visit their respective
establishments to buy holiday goods.
Every merchant whose advertisement
appears in the New DOMINION may,
as rule, be relied on as liberal
and just dealer, and buyers will do
better in every way to deal with them
than with a close listed skinfnt, who
doesn't believe in advertising (that is
too stingy to pay for printers ink)
We would suggest that people OBJ
serve this, and convince themselves
of its correctness.
THE clearest case Of retribution is
recorded by an exchange. A man
who voted against the tax on dogs
had eleven out of fifteen fine sheep
killed by dogs short time afterward

II. S. HAYES, Main st.
T. F. PRoTzMAN, of Morris X
Roads, Fayctte County, Pa. certainly
deserves the success he has attained.
He is one of the most liberal adver-
tisers in this section of country. AL
though he lives about thirteen miles
from town, he sells goods to quite a
number of people in this immediate
vicinity. Mr.. Protzman is live
man; he offers inducements to buy
ers through the county papers, and
when customers go to his establish
ment, he does just as he promises.
Such man will succeed. 1t would
be good thing if all our merchants
were as liberal "Tom."
WE would request the numerous
parties who are in arrears for Job
Work, Advertising or Subscription,
to make immediate settlement.
