River News,

Last evening the steamer Iron Age, OF
Captain Gray's Iron Line, lay up ut the
Wheeling wharf and gave an exhibition oil
the workings of the electric light apparatus.
A number of persons were on the wharf,
and all admired the beauty and power OF
the electric headlight. After the exhibit
ton was concluded q REGISTER scribe went
on board, and was shown the true inward
ness of frst-CasS tow steamer. He was
first taken to the engine room and shown
the electric light apparatus. The machine
is OF the Rush pattern, and runs two lights,
each of which is equal in brill
lirncy and power to several thousand
candles. One of these is the headlight OF
the steamer, and the other is kept usually
in the engine room. Two hundred feet OF
wire is portion OF the apparatus, and can
be taken to the end of the largest tow OF
barges where one of the lights can be
placed, and the whole work OF the crew be
done at midnight in light that equals the
brightest sunshine. The electric apparatus
is under the charge OF Mr.. Thomas Murrey.
Aside from the electric light, the Iron Age,
which runs from st. Louis to Pittsburgh, is
one of the finest boats on the river.

Martin Thornton has the interests OF his
patrons always in mind. Recently under
stress of high prices for eatabes of all kinds
he was compelled to add triile to the prices
OF meals, but the late retrogade movement
in the same commodities has enabled him
to give the same generous meals at the old
price, 25 cents each. There is no restaurant
in the Union that furnishes the meal that
this model caterer does for the same
amount of money. His cooking is par eI-
cellence, the best in the State, and his
rooms, both for ladies and gentlemen ire
proachablc. With the approach of winter
he has redoubled his efforts to procure all
the seasonable Injuries, such as game. fish
and fowl, and these served after the most
approved style. Remember the old reliable
Martin and his popular prices.

THE ROMAN POSrIYFs,

however. have as times and circu instances
defined that these things should be held
firm which they had thus learnt under
Gods assistance to be in accordance with
the Holy Scripture and apostolic traditions.
For the Holy Spirit was not promised to
the successors of st. Peter that by His reve-
lations they might make known new doc
trine, but by his assistance they might
holly preserve and faithfully expound the
revelation delivered to the apostles, or in
other words, the deposit of the faith (deyo-
s1ii TN Sicil. This is that apostolic doctrine
which all the venerable Fathers of the
church have embraced and all the orthodox
holy Doctors have yenerated and followed
for they had the most perfect conviction
that this Holy See of Peter always remains
free from all error, according to the divine
promise Of our Lord and Saviour which He
made to the prince of His disciples: -
have prayed for thee that thy faith fail not,
and then, being once converted, confirm thy
brethren" This gracious gift of the truth,
and of indefectible faith, has been accord
ingly given by God to Peter and his sue
ceSsors in this See that they might dis
charge their high Office TO
THS SALVATION OF ALL:
that so the universal flock of Christ
turned from the poisonous sllurements
ture of heavenly doctrine; so that all occa-
sion of sehism having been removed, the
whole church might be preserved in unity,
and resting on It's own solid basis might
stand fast against the gates of hell.
But at this present time, when the
wholesome official of the apostolic Office is
most pressingly needed, there are found
not few who derogste from it's dignity
We esteem it quite necessary, solemnly, TO
assert the prerogatiye which the only be-
gotten Son Of God has graciously declared
to be bound up with the highest pastoral
to the Tradition of the Christian faith.
