Editors lntrlllgcnCcr
We arc moving along in our usual pros.
porous way down here. Business Of all
kinds is brisk, only to be greatly increased
by rise in the river. This fall, and in fact
all summer, the sound Of the saw, the ham.
mer and the Ratchet have been and are
constantly heardin the construction OF new
buildings (homcs for the people, the same
we see md hear in the growing towns OF
our Western States. We hope to be and
believe We will be the principal station BE-
tween Wheeling and ParkGrsburg on the
W. ?. 4 G. railroad What we need is q
railroad and telegraph facilities. We only
heard late last evening OF the death Of
President Garfield, eighteen hours after II
occurred. The news created profound
feeling OF sorrow in this community, and
this morning it found general expression in
ull the business houses, public and private
offices, being draped In mourning
The September term OF our Circuit Court,
Judge I. |, Steady presiding, which met
yesterday, was adjourned this morning for
the day out Of rcspectto the memory Of the
dead President by the unanimous wish OF
the members OF the bar and OF the people,
Tho public schools were also dismissed,
and IN almost Sabbath stiffness prevails.
Men stand around in groups, and in their
conversation express their detestatiOn Of
the crime by which great man has been
lost to his country, Nihilism, ii the net did
spring from that source, will find shallow
soil in which to grow in this country, but,
rs the expression used to be In France, "Le
roi cal mort rire le roi, so we may say here.
This grcNt Government moves on without
IL jar in its machinery. The life of one man,
although good and great in the estimation
OF the people, Is as naught. This goes to
show the stability OF Republican institu.
tions, especially OF those Of the United
States, giving us ALA lesson in our strength

furnishing food, carriages, medicines, IN

II is generally thought that the plan TO

probably be 10 send circular to every
person who has rendered service to the
President requesting that bill shall be

made for the whole sum. The President

paid for, and wishes all hearticles sent by

House either to be returned or bought and
