'li-- Emma g., daughter of Capt Emery Berry

'Hr Young man Il. Charles 7. Staples, the only sur
Nor Of the party, tells the following story-They
sailing on the harbor in a boat, which at best
a. but frail affair, when a sudden squal struck
len. The boat was thrown over, flied, and being
heavily ballasted Immediately sank. Staples was
ln excellent swimmer, but he could do nothing to-
ward rescuing his companions, who must have soon
drowned with the exception of the Patterson boy
Tile latter, with some assistance from Staples near
j reached the shore. The accident occurred at
iul was not seen by any one. At O'Clock in the
ltternoon Mr. John Merithew rowing in from the
H~hing grounds saw and passed two objects floating
IN the water. subsequently he learned of the acci-
ient and pulled back to the floating objects, which
proved to be the bodies of the Partridge and Berry
girls Later Mr.. Sawyer Ellis discovered the re
mains Of Miss Hichborn, which had drifted over to
the Cape. The body of the boy had not been found
Npto Tuesday noon. When Mr. staples, the survivor,
fttched the shore, which was nearly a mile from
where the boat capsized, he was nearly exhausted,
ahd it was some time before he could speak. The
victims of the disaster were from the best known
and most respected families in town. The three
Young ladies were very much attached to each other

D0n DAYS.

We are glad to see the dog nuha agitated
IN such lively Way once more. There seems
10 have been thorough waking up on the
subject throughout the entire community.
Wherever one gees now, this seems 10 De the
chief topic of conversation, and many enthu-
sias,ic and excitable people give expression 70
their sentiments in some good strong, (out
homely) Anglo Saxon explosives. This, we
cannot help thinking, Is most encouraging
sign of the tin e.; for when popular feelpg -
aroused and public sentiment shapes i'selI def
nitely IL is sure 10 set things to rights. II Is
that ponderous AID dreadful stone, which, II 1t
falls upon man, will grind him into powder
Farmers cannot do a better thing than TO Venti-
late this whole matter while such state OF feel-
ing is rife They cannot afford to let II be
hushed up and siurred over. 1t effects too vitality
tt cir great pecuniary interest
The question for the farmers OF this commu-
pity to settle now seems from all accounts, to
b. substantially this: HAVE THEY ANY PROP
ERTY RIGHTS WHICH SPORT ING OHAK-
ACTERS AND FOX HUNTERS AXE BOUND
TO RESPECT? IL is not enough TO say that
the ordinary methods of action for trespass will
suffice. Dogs in passing over the farm do in
c,lculable harm in alarming ard Tightening
sheep, whether they tear and kill them or no.,
ard this damage cannot easily he estimated.
The only remedy is DOWN WITH The DOGS
To this end farmers look up your old flint locks
and fall iuto line ard make it hot under the
old flag" II the law of West Virginia looked
upon dogs as property, it would DIAL with them
lust as in any other case Of trespass. But 1t
clearly and emphatically says that any one may
KILL any dog chasing sheep.
1t does not say that any horse or bull seen an
noy ing sheep may be killed. Why then does 1t
discriminate so severely against the canine spe
cies The answer is obvious. Thew are taxed as
q nuisance. The farmers can not afford TO nave
canine tramps rowing about over their premises at
their own sweet will, that's certain.

comes to understand his rights and duties In the
great matter it is no figure of speech tosay that
he will make The fur fly" W. d. w.

ard Pinkney, of New York, and nephew
of Col. Schley of this vicinity, was
among the victims in New York few
days ago, at the falling Of the Hippo
drome building, on Madison avenue.
The New York Herald SAYS
"william Plnkney, aged sixteen, son of DR..

tanned simple fracture of the left leg. He was
at once removed TO his fathers residence, where,
with the assistance of DIR. Weir, DIR. Pinkney set
the injured limb On inquiry yesterday after
noon the sufferer was reported as doing as well
as could be expected. There is quite dramatic
incident in connection with this case worthy OF
passing notice. At the moment OF the disaster
Dr. Pinkney, who had no idea that his son was
in the dancing room, or, indeed, in the garden,
was converting with party of ladies in the cen
tire of the building. When the crash came the
ladies were panic stricken, and the Doctors first
care was TO restore their sef-possesson by assur-
ances that the danger was confined to the east OF
the building. Their fears Being allayed he has
tened to the scene Of the sufferers. Underneath
the gallery he encountered the first victim OF The
accident. Stretched out on q bench Icy youth
with his left leg dangling, broken, on the
ground His eyes sought the face OF the help

say Some curiosity always exists at
the opening of the spring season to see
the new styles of hats among the wo-
men. An exchange, which seems to be
an adept in describing styles of female
apparel, thus anticipates it:
The coming summer hat for women
is to be made of straw. 1t will be
knocked in on the front, jammed in on
the back, showed in on each side and
kicked in on top. Then the rim will
be jammed up all around to make the
whole effect harmonious. 1t will be
trimmed with strips OF sheet tin, turkey
wings, old fruit cans and debris gener-
ally. 1t is an economical kind of hat,
as it can be made by taking boys old
straw hat, running wheelbarrow over
it few times and hitchicg on whatever
comes handy.

OUR OPINION.

In any human undertaking, where
there are conflicting interests irfiu-
encing the action of those interested in
its accomplishment, it is very question
able OF meeting with success. What is
needed, is united, frank, bold, deter
mined action; this we now commend to
the Democratic party Of the nation in
the next presidential election; its sue
cess in our judgment is of vital impor-
lance to the prosperity, peace and per
pstuity of our republican form OF gov
ernmeut No preference to section or
individual should be pandered to. There
should be a careful scanning of character
and qualification in the party selected.
No faction should be allowed to intrude
its chickering's and prejudices into the
Cincinnati Convention, aud no delega
ton of Democrats, having the success
of the party al heart will attempt such
foray.
There is some seeming conflict also
in poli,ical measures which must be
harmouized, upon the financial, tariff
and internal improvement questions.
The progress and advance of our nation
in its status among the nations OF the
earth, necessitates certain changes IN
connection with the above subjects. 1t
Is absurd to adhere infexibly to old
practices when experience teaches the
necessity OF a change; it shows blind
party stupidity and lack OF an intelll-
gent comprehension OF the changes
which time and circumstances work in
the progress of great progressive
nation like ours. 1t cannot succeed
with Tllden and Bayard hard money
faction at the North, or 'hat' money
party at the West. a nations money
TO be just should beequal in raiue, with
ont regard to its material whether gold,
silver or paper. 1t cannot succeed with
Subsidy" and "anti-subsidy" party,
This can be harmonizcd and fostered
by the endorsement by the government,
protected by first mortgage liens.
The manufacturing interest OF the
present day does not require that fos-
,ering care of our government that 1t
did, when we had to rely upon other
nations for various productions, SKILL
labor and machinery. These concomi-
tauts have all changed, and the man or
party who fails to comprehend the force
of these driftings is unfit for the con-
troll Of progressive nation.

pg- With an increase of Is per cent.
in the acreage sown and equally favora-
bic condition, as compared with that OF
last year, there is every reason for be-
lieving that the wheat crop of lSSowlll
surpass that of last year, which was at
once the largest and most profitable ev-
err grown in America. In the event OF
another European war the granaries OF
the new world will be more than able
to supply all the food demands Of the
old. But if, as is altogether probable,
peace will prevail and crops abroad
show a large increase, the prices Of
bread-stuffs will rule much below the
speculative figures Of this season.

@- HEAVY BLAsr.-Messrs. Barry
and McCafferty informed us that they
recently put off blast in the quarry
belonging to Mr.. VIM. 7. Lemen, above
town on the banks of tho Potomac, in
which they used IA kegs of powder,and
threw out several hundred tons OF rock,
literally tearing away the whole cliff,
and that the shock was so great, that it
affected the waters of the river to that
extent, that in few moments after
wards, hundreds of dead fish could be
gathered along the shore.
We do not know whether the gentle
men who informed us of the above par
ticulars intended them for publication
or not; but it certainly must have been
"heavy" blast For further informa-
ton, we refer all to Maj. Henry Hagan.
