established Tor the same purpose at Woods Hall, on
Cape Ann. where preparations have been made for
extensive operations during the coming winter.
Many improvements have been made in the appara-
tus tor Matching the Goldfish, aud great results are
confidently expected.
Professor Baird says that American fishermen
take about 10000. 600 Goldfish each year. Tho
average weight of these fish, at four years of age
IL about ten pounds each. Nine million eggs have
been taken from single female fish OF that species
and Professor Baird says it is poor fish indeed
that does not yield 100 600 eggs Even at that
rate 100 female Goldfish alone will yield
each year q quantity of eggs equal in num-
Der TO the whole number of Goldfish taken.
Professor Bard. therefore, knows reason why
American waters may not be SO abundantly stocked
that our fishermen will not be obliged to seek this
fish elsewhere Canadian authorities have already
turned their attention to this new American enter
prise and have begun 10 make inquiries with view
to engaging in the same work themselves
The sea herring multiply with great rapidity as
the Goldfish aud their artificial propagation work
of very little difficulty. At Gloucester, Mass,
many millions of this fish have been Matched and
turned into the sea by the Commission.
Some experiments have been made, with fairly
successful results in the artificial propagation OF the
common maekerel Although the work is some
what more difficult and precarlous than that of
Matching Goldfish, Professor Baird is confident that

A Card.

In the last issue of the Statesman,
the editor, in an article attempting
to explain away his action at the re-
cent Democratic mass meeting at the
Courthouse, uses the following lam
guage: ra i'aa
Except that after the committee
had passed upon the delegation to re-
present Arden district, Mr.. B. s. Xii.
mer insisted that Mr.. VIM. s. Hen
shaw's name should be substituted
for some one of the delegates already
appointed, to which we objected. but
was oyerruled, and Mr.. Henry j. Sci
bert's name was thereupon stricken
off and Mr.. Henshaw's put in place,
proceeding we did not understand
then nor do we now" st t.a,ra
The above statement is untrue.
The facts are these: The delegates
first named by the committee from
Arden, were w. S. Henshaw, Henry
J. Seibert and Geo. S. Roush. Mr..
Eichelberger objected to the appoint
ment of these three (although he
lives in Martinsburg,) on the ground
that they lived too close together,
and wanted Mr.. Flagg as one of the
delegates from Arden. | consented
that Mr.. Flagg should be appointed
in place of Mr.. Geo. Roush. TO this
he objected, saying he knew Mr..
Roush would go. Then at his in
stance, the name of Mr.. II. J. Sci
bert was struck off, and consented
to it. l did not then understand Mr.
Eichelberger's objections to the Ar
den delegates first appointed, nor do
| now. B. S. KILMER.

The editor of the Statesman, in a
carefully prepared article, endeayors
to convey the impression that the
report appearing in your last issue of
the recent Democratic meeting is a
fabrication. Now your reporter
gathered his information and facts
from such sources that he verify be-
Iieves, and he has presented to your
readers truthful, fair and candid
I statement of matters as they oc-
Cured. fp
Laying all personal illusions aside
as irrelevant and out of place, and
goiug directly to the issue of truth
fitness, your readers will observe
that Mr.. Eichelberger does not ven
ture to deny that he prepared a list
of committee to be appointed by
the chair. He slides around this
and makes but one single explicit
denial. He denies that Mr.. r.. S.
Eichelberger handed the chairman a
list of any kind. Now your reporter
had information of this prepared list
and that it was to be handed to Mr.
Crantham, tho prepared chairman,
by Mr.. Eichelberger, and he under
stood the younger. He admits a
possible error, but if error it be, it
leaves the SENIOR worse off than
ever, for / am compelled to report
that he not only prepared but deliv-
cred the list himself. On every es-
sential point your reporter believes
his statement to be true, and sub
mits that all the differences are fairly
drawn. To sum the matter it is be-
lieved by many very honest people
that the editor, assisted by Mr..
Lucrs, concocted the scheme, and
that the graceless youngsters were
to smart for them and administered
crushing defeat. a 81
AS for the .editor of the States
man," many have grave doubts, net
only as to his innocence in this, but
also think his Democratic record in
past campaigns is no better than it
should be. Mr.. Grantham can clear
away these doubts like the morning
sun clears away the mists. If he
considers it of sufficient consequence
L would suggest that he inform the
people, whether or not a prepared
list was handed him by either of the
Eichelbergers; whether he used the
list or any part thereof in his ap-
pointments as chairman, and also
state any other matters in reference
to said meeting which he may deem
pertinent thereto. REPORTER.

ANOTHER RICHMOND IN
THE FIELD.

Since the. withdrawal of j. n.
Camden, of Parkersburg, as a candi-
date for the Office Of Governor, Jacob
B. Jackson, an attorney-at- law, also
of Parkersburg, has been pushed into
the field to FIJI the vacancy. Well
this might have been expected. Par
kersburg is maryellously ambitious
little place, and struggled hard to be
made the capital of our. State. She
is now filled up to her city limits
with Federal and State Judges, ex-
United States Senators, ex-West
Virginia Governors, and yet she is
not happy. Like the daughter of
the horse-leech, she still cries for
more, more! Poor Martinsburg, the
second city of our State, that
has never, since the settlement of
Virginia, been honored by an United
States Senator or Governor, or what
is called State officer, of any de-
gree, is now expected to bow to the
lordly pretentions of that ambitious
little city located at the mouth of
the Little Kanawha.

GEORGIA'S SENATOR.

The resignation of Senator Cor
don, Of Georgia, and the appoint
ment of Ex-Governor Brown to his
seat in the U. S. Senate, has created
much talk and dissatisfaction in that
State. The following outline of
Mr.. Browns political career will
show that he is not likely to stand
as high in the estimation of his peo-
people, as a Senator, as his prede-
cessor: tt,.t .s.f
1t seems to be conceded that ne is
an able man, and he is also native
Southerner, being born in Alabama,
but judging from a sketch of his Ca
reer, is somewhat eccentric in poll
tics. He was for several years a lead
ing member of the Georgia House of
Delegates, was elected Governor of
the State in 1857, and was reelected
four times, serving until 1865. He
was thus the executive during the
late civil war and whilst at the outset

Confederacy, and finally, at the close
OF the war, Mr.. Brown took a prom

der the New State constitution he
became in 1868 chief justice of the
Supreme Court of the State, and
supported Gen. Grant for President
in that year. In 1872 he supported
Mr.. Greeley, and has since that, it
is claimed, co-operated with the
democrats. In 1871 Mr.. Brown re-
signed his judgship and assumed the
presidency of the Western and At
lantic Railroad Company, which po-
sition he still holds.

we pen a notice of the death of
Mrs. Maria, wife of Jacob Stuckey,
Esq. who departed this life near

age. We but express, the sincere
feelings of the entire community

line with her profession, without
the slightest tint of ostentation.
Whilst she was strict adherent
to the rules of the branch of the

she always worshipped with other
branches, without bigotry or Sec
tional feelings. She was always
ready TO administer 10 the wants
of the sick and the afflicted. The
poor and the needy she never
turned away empty, always per-
forming her deeds of kindness in
accordance with the divine injunc-
ton, not letting the left hand know
what the right hand doeth. The
sympathy of the community goes
out to the bereaved family; but
they have the more comforting
consolation that their loss on earth

Mr.. F., for this position we are
for him first, last and everytirne.
We are neither prophet nor
the son of prophet, nor one of the
self-constituted leaders of the
Democratic party, but are usually
found in our place among the
rank and Ale. If not too pre-
sumptuous we would like to give
our ideas upon at least part OF
the mission of the Democratic
party, not as concerns the nation,
but In so far as this Congressional
district is concerned. We think.
and when | say We in this con-
nection / mean the people OF this
end of the county, that the mis-
sion Of the party in part il the
nomination of John Blair Hoge
for Congress. 1t Is useless for US
to.attempt to eulogize his charac-
ter. We all know him as gem
tleman eminently qualified 10 oc-
cupy the position--as one who
would dignity it equally as much
as he would be dignified by it.
When the proper time comes the
people up this way will not be too
busy to attend a convention and
support Mr.. Hoge.
The sheriffalty is not creating
any very great excitement with
US. Robert Lamon and w. Il.
Noll both have their friends, as
have also Henry Wilen and Nor
gan Sencindiver. For the Asses
sorship we would suggest the
name of David III. Stuckey, of
this township, for this end Of the
county, and as Hedgesviile cor
respondent was kind enough to Sc
lect one for us, we will return the
compliment and suggest Mr.. Jacob
Hull, of Hedgesville, for the lower
district. Mr., Hull is we'll qualifi-
ed as Is Mr.. Stuckey and we are
sure both would receive the full
support of the party. AS things
wax hotter we will keep you ad-
vised. 50 Hps 1852 $40 SEP.

A letter writer from Washington
says: ellis Honor, John J. Jackson,
Judge of the Federal Court, is now
busy in this city forming combin-
alton with Hereford to give brother
Jake a boom for Governor in the
Third District. The obvious purpose
of this movement is to unhorse
Faulkner, to gorge Parkersburg with
the spoils of the Governorship, and
thus to choke off Camden for United
States Senator, and to leave a clear
track for Senator Hereford. Oh,

We give these flying rumors fol
what they are worth, without vouch
ing for their truth. Ours is an in,

heard. 1t looks as if politics were
likely to become brisk and lively in

elections.

"SUBSIDIES.n

In his speech before the Demo-
cratic Mass Meeting in the Court
House on the 18th, Mr.. Lucas de-
clared himself in favor of granting
subsidies to the Southern Pacific
Railroad. We should like to know
how Mr.. Lucas will reconcile his
position in this respect with the fol-
lowing plank in the Democratic
platform of. 1876, adopted at ST..
Louis:
"Reform is necessary to put a stop
to the profligate waste of public
lands, and their diversion from
actual settlers by the party in pow
er, which has squandered zoe, 000, 900
of acres upon railroads alone, and
out of more than thrice that aggre-
gate has disposed of less than a
sixth directly to tillers of the soil. y

had the right to place before the
meeting any pertinent resolutions.

CHICAGO.

The Republican hosts are gather
ing at Chicago, and before another
issue of this paper reaches its read
ers the question of the Republican
nominee for President will be set
tied. The action of a political nom
mating convention is about as un'
certain as any unknown event can
be, but we give it as our judgment
that Grant will be nominated on the
first ballot, or not at all. If Grant
is not nominated, it is hard to con-
lecture who will be, except that il
will not be Blaine.

DAVID DAVIS,

Senator David Davis, has, in an
open letter placed himself on record
before the American people on the
great questions now agitating the
public mind, and the platform upon
which he stands is decidedly Demo-
cratic. After this square declara-
ton of his position, it can no longer
be said that he holds an anomalous
position in the Senate as an inde-
pendent party in himself, as this re-
cent declaration of his principles
fixes him squarely in the regular
Democratic procession. 1t is just
barely possible that his defining
his position at this time may have
had some reference to the meeting
of the Cincinnati Convention. 1t is
reported that the Senator has had
the Presidential bee in his hat for
some time. .-g mao

The M IL. :. $. Concerts.

The concerts held at Feller's
Hall last week, by the scholars of
the NJ. E. Sunday School, were a
perfect success. The Opera chorus
entitled, Softly Treading," was
rendered beautifully. Itcommen-
ced with quartette by Misses
Dieffenderfel and Beall for sopra-
no and alto, and Messrs. Farms
worth and def ;nderfer for tenor
aud bass, which they sang with
great credit. The male quartette,
Messrs. Mathews, Dieffenderfer,
Sayles and Farnsworth, deserves
notice. The leading feature was
the Can'ata, (Red Ridinghood)
composed of about twenty-five
children. who sang and spoke adj
mirably. Mrs. Evans and Miss
Fannie Beall deserve a great deal
of praise for the way in which they
trained the children and arranged
the Queens throne, which was so
much admired. The first night
ended with dialogue, Freedom
of the Press" which was amusing
TO all. The second night, Mrs.
Evans sang a solo, "Santa Lucia.u
which deserves more than a pass
ing notice. She was encored, and
then sang ION the Danube River"
BY special request, Mr.. Ben. Bush
nell sang and all who have heard
him, know that it was rendered
well. A trio, ANGELS Serenade,"
by Misses Dieffenderfer, Beall and
Mathews, was sung well. The
"Sleep at the Switch by Miss
Spillman, Is worthy of special no.
tice. The concert ended with, a
dialogue, "The Broken Hearted
Club" by seven ladies and five
gentlemen, who all performed their
parts well. Miss Fannie Beall, ..as
Mrs. Lovebird, performed her part
admirably, to the entire satisfac-
ton of all who heard it. ID.

A REPUBLICAN OPTNION.

The Keyser Echo, Republican
paper, formerly owned and edited by
Hon. j. t. Hoke, in its last issue
says:
"Hon. G. J. Faulkner undoubt-
edly will bring to the Gubernatorial
chair more dignity, polish and abil-
ity than any other man in the
Democratic party. If we must have
"old Bourbon let us have the best
in your decanter; something ten per
cent above proof"
The Echo carries level head on
such matters.
