pYLERAND THEIR. r.

Rev. Mr.. REED, Of Sis.ersville, was in
the city Yesterday. lie says that at a
meeting in the interest oil the Wheeling
and Parkersburg road held last Satur'
day in Sistersyille, the people OF Tyler
county showed a great deal OF interest
AID some positive enthusiasm. The
quota OF stock allotted to Tyler for the
purpose Of obtaining a survey was $500
but the people did not stop when that
limit was reached but ran the subserip-
ton mp 70 $50 and say that at least
81 200 Ui stock will be subscribed for.
As we understand It, they propose
to procure, in addition, the free right oil
way through the entire county. Tyler
las doue exceedingly well. Her people
evidently know a good thing when they
see il.
Me-. Browse, of Peasants, was at the
Tyler meeting and made a railroad
speech. lie said that the people oil
Peasants were alive TO the importance
Of the enterprise and that they would
DO their full part Allthe word We get
from along the line is OF the most en-
cOuraging nature. The people are wax
lng up To their true interests.

PaE END.

The second discharge Of TAYLOR
SrRAuosR probably puts an end to this
ilustrious case-not necessarily so, as
he is still liable to arrest, indictment,
trial, conviction, sentence and hanging
but inasmuch as he seems to be proof
a ,ainst all these devices OF the law, the
authorities will doubtless give him a
wide berth. The best that can be said
of the ending is that the law has been
iuiled. The crime merited the PEN
atty prescribed by the law
but through long struggle
against death and cOmmendable de-
meanor during nearly ten years OF i'm
prisonmeut the prisoner has enlisted
the svmpalhies OF very large number
and soitened the asperity o. the general
indgmen. 70 such a degree that what
vas originally q very positive feeling
a,ainst him has taken the form OF, at
least, a negative disposition and will
insness to let him live. This easy in
difference OF the public mind had more
to 10 with his discharge than any for
midable legal obstacles in the way OF
another trial. l. may not be good pre-
cedeut, but such as i; is, it has been
made.

LOCATING TaE HEMPFIELD.

The work OF locating the route OF the
Hsmpfeld road through the city will be
resumed to-day. as the committee only
partly investigated the points in the
project on Yesterday. Ii is formida-
bic undertaking, whatever route may be
chosen, to get through the elevated
ground from the creek to the Com
pany's track in South Wheeling. The
distance TO be tunneled will be about
the same wherever the hill is
entered. To an outsider 1t
would appear to be less expen-
sive to the Company to follow the bank
81 the creek on trestle work down to
the old depot, or even to turn the creek
through the hill in North Wheeling and
occupy its bed, than to attempt the long
and expensive tunnel that will be re-
uuired to put them on a level in South
Wheeling. But to = railroad man the
tunnel may be preferable, with its enor-
nous cost.
We believe the COmpany's engineer
has been called to the city by Mr..
KEYsER. and will be here to-day to give
his opinion upon certain matters arising
inthe choice of routes, and a final result
will be- reached SO far as the route is
concerned

SHALL WI Rave A FAIR next
EAl,I,7

n
We believe that the chief part Of the
preparations Tor the Centennial exhioi'
ton al Philadelphia was made within
ayear. =.
Some OF the enterprising projectors Oh
our State Fair want i,oo years in when
to prepare for their first exhibition:
Maybe it's to be a bigger one than the
Centennial
There's luck in leisure, but not much
bnsiness. There is State Fair appetite
now oabroad in the land" which may
ns,er on, before the Fall Of 1882. We
wouldn't blame it for peteriDg out. Lille
ia too short TO MUNICH a matter OF an in
dustrial exposition through eighteen
months.
There are yet five solid months in
which to prepare for this exhibition.
With the proper kind Of energy the
grounds could be fenced, the track
graded, and every building that is neces-
sary could be erected, all inside OF thirty
days. There are hundreds Of men now
in this city who will take the contract
for the fence, the contract for the build
ings, the contract for the track, and the
contract for every necessary appoint
ment of the grounds, and give bonds in
heavy penalties to complete each and all
of them within thirty days.
Unless it be the grading Of the track,
which ought to be done now, and such
other grading as the ground may need'
there need not be a stroke OF work done
before the first OF September, and every
other separate part of the work, we say,
can be let out in contracts TO be COM
pleted in thirty days.
The Association, then, has from three
to tour months in which to procure
plans for the buildings aud arrange the
details for the exhibition. They can
have all the information they want on
this head from oil points OF the coun'
try, within three or four weeks. This is
an age OF telegraphs and railroads, Of
steam and lightning. We would remind
the State Fair Association that the stage
coach and the grapevine have been SUI
perseted.
There is nothing pressing but a cata
lOgue Of premiums. That would be in
good time ii issued two months before
the exhibition, except that among the
farmers, it would be well to circulate II
as soon as possible. But there is plenty
OF time for that-plenty of time for ev
cry necessary preparation-plenty o.
time to get up as good an exhibition al
can be done in two years preparation
All that is needed is little BUSINESS.

IT is now stated that the GLADSTONE
Ministry expect TO carry the Irish land
bill without serious opposition except
from Mr.. PARSELL. The Conservatives,
having Withdrawn the amendment pre-
pared at the Carlton Club meeting, are
hesitating as to what policy they will
pursue. The Home Rulers, under SHAW,
and the English radicals will support
the bill.

A REASONABLE DEMAND.

The demand OF the Russian Nihilists
or by whatever name the revolution
AIRY party in that country may be called
is a National Assembly elected by the
people, and that the elections be carried
on with the complete liberty Of the
press, OF speech, and of public meetings.
We call these "inalienable rights" in
this country, but in Russia such ideas
involve an entire reorganization OF the
whole system Of government, and ulti-
mately dispute ci the traditional d.
vine right by which the Car holds his
scepter.
The inauguration OF a system OF free
schools, a free press, and free speech,
would perhaps, result in an overthrow
OF the Russian government within twen-
ty-iour months. A government that de-
ponds upon the ignorance OF its subjects
or its perpetuity cannot have a very
strong hold upon humanity or upon the
sympathies OF the world Either the
world must stand still or such systems
OF government, VII. he trodden under
foot by the enhancing forces of higher
civilization.
II is only question OF time, and per-
haps a very brief time, with the govern
meat OF RGssjs. The time will have
come when the semi-bIrbarous subjects
OF the Car are capable OF exercising the
prerogatiyeS of freemen. 1t Is probably
a little too soon 10 expect it now, but d
constitutional government must come
sooner or later to the Empire OF Russia.
and the first concessions in that direc-
ton may even now be quietly forming
in the mind OF ALENANDER III. who may
think the terms of the revolutionists not
TO .be more deplored than the risk Of
the assassins dagger or the bOmbshell.
IMMIGRATION is unprecedented this
spring. The old countries seem to be
almost emptying themselves into Amer
lea Sixty thousand souls arrived at
New York alone daring April, and hall
as many more at the other ports. Balti-
more is looming up as a port of arrival,
and eight steamers, carrying from l, 200
$500 smigrsnts, have tied up at her
docks the last two weeks.

is a notorious fact that the slender ma

Senatorial influence proves the growth
Of the rentralising and psurping ten
dency Of which we speak.
The remedy for this state OF things Is
very simple to indicate, but very diff
cult TO make effective. All that is re,
ouired TO restore things to their normal
relations is that the President shall Wig.
orously and persistently assert his pre-
negatives, and refuse TO surrender his
rights under the constitution, and that
the offices shall be taken out oil pohtics.
We shall then have an executive VINO
can execute and a Congress IN Dotn
branches that can attend to its iegiti-
mate business OF law-makiDg. Shall the
President or the people first take a
stand against Senatorial usurpatlon?
II the Republicans feel any better Tor
calling their backdown in the Senate by
some prettier name, they are welcome
TO the dubious consolation. But the
plain fact is that. in agreeing to exccu-
utiye sessions, they abandon their at
tempt to force the Democrats to consent
TO the election OF RIDDLEBERGER ana
GoRHAM. The Senate was convened lot
executive business. The President sent
in his nominations. The Democrats
were ready TO consider them. But the
Republicans said move will stick 'tiil
the crack of doom" for RIDDLEBERGER
first. The country has condemned
with great unanimity and increasing
earnestness, this neglect OF executive
business in an attempt to give MALONE
'his share" in the reorganization sought
to be effected by his vote. And now
the Republicans yield the point, as they
might have done a month ago. 1t Is
simply incredible that they will SIT
there, as some OF them still say they
will, waiting for the Democrats to give
in, after the nominations are disposed
Of. A breakdown is none the worse ior
being done gracefully.

will be consigned to the dark tomb of
the past, whence there is no resurrection

away the stones from the sepulchres of
departed years, while faithful history
perpetuates their fame by writing down
all that is worth knowing about them
and some times good deal more. Now,
my friends, is the time for sober and
solemn reflection. The death of the year
is something of more Importance than
that of dog or Gait affects you all.
By its demise, you should be reminded
that Time has given you another hitch
towards the dreaded tumbling-Off place.
and that few more shOves will bring
you to the edge of that awful precipice,
which so fearful frOwns upon the vast
ocean of eternity! And when you have
once fallen off, there is no such thing as
climbing up again. IL you have taken
the precautiOn to put on the life-pre-
server of piOus faith, you may swim to

garden overgrown with wseds-and
scarce a summers growth of withered
grass upon the new-rnade graves of our
kindred. All!
Since the last solemn reign of this day of re.
Election,
What crowds have resigned life's ephemeral
breath?
How many have shed their last tear of dejec-
And closed d' the dim eye in the darkness of
death2
How many have sudden their pilgrimage
ended,
Beneath the sad pail that now covers their
bier,
Or to deaths lonesome valley have gently de-
scended;
And found their last bed-with the Grave of
Year.
Now too, survey the half-buried track
of your past lives, and endeavOr to cor
rect all errors that experience and a re-
proving conscience pronounce to be such. |
Balance up all social, moral and bust
