last motion filed by Reed in Guiteau's behalf,

listened to the argument in that case, have
come to the conclusion that they have ex-

re-argument would bring them to no other
conclusion than that which they have already
arrived at, and they decline to reopen the
case for argument"

BoTMERsoME BRIDGEs.
A General Gathering OF River
Men 10 Consider the Subject.

The Register has from time to time
confirmed information concerning
the proposed railroad bridge at Point
Pleasant, in Mason county, and also
concerning pending legislation In
Congress in relation 10 river bridges.
Some time ago a call was iosued, at
Pittsburgh, toriyermen generally, for
a meeting to discuss these matters
andthe gathering occurred yesterday.
The object was a two-fuld one, grow.
ing out Of the introduction in the
House Of a bill by Mr.. Townshend Of
illinois, and out Of the probability Of
new railroad bridge across the Ohio
at Point Pleasant, w. Va, ten miles
below Pomeroy, 0. The point at issue
in the firt instance was the width of
channel sbans. The bill provides
that all bridges contemplated ia
cross the Ohio should have 400 feet
channel spans. Aftersone discussion,
Capt. j. n. O'Neil appointed the
following committee to confer with
a committee Of the Chamber Of Com.
merce and endeayor to effect an
amendment to the Townshend bill.
This amendment to provide for an in
crease in the length Of channel spans
on the Ohio to 500 feet, and further,
that all such spans shall be "thorough
spans" or such as have the truss or
bridge structure above, not below,
the roadway Of such bridge. This
committee was appointed, as follows.
Captains Addison Lysle, George T.
Miller, John A. Wood and J. N.
I0'Neil.
In regard to the Point Pleasant
bridge there was a general inter.
change Of sentiment. Capt. John A.
Wood submitted plan of the river
at the point named, which had been
prepared by Col. Merrill. The latter
was anxious to hear from the Pitts
burgh river men on the subject be.
fore endorsing any plan or fixing the
side of the river for the channel span.
General Moorhead entered the meet.
ing and took an interest in the pro.
ceedings. 1t was finally decided to
leave the matters in the hands of a
committee and to ask for fuller ex.
preston of feeling from the pilots
The committee to confer with Col
Merrill consists of Captains John A.
Wood, John Marcillott, Michaelis
and S. S. Brown.

They Were all Poor Boys.

An exchange culls the following
historical facts, which should encour.
age every young man struggling un.
der discouragements and poverty:
John Adams, second President, was
the son of a farmer of very moderate
means. The only start he had was
a good education.
Andrew Jackson was born in loo

ed in the pine woods for which the
State is famous.
James K. Polk spent the earlier
years Of his life in helping to dig a
Living out of new farm in North
Carolina. he was afterwards a clerk
ina country store.
Willard Fillmore was the son of n
New York farmer, and his house was
very humble one. He learned the
business of clothier.
James Buchanan was born in q
small town among the ALLEGHENY
Mountains. His father cut the LOGS
and built his own house in what was
then a wilderness.
Abraham Lincoln was the son of n
very poor Kentucky farmer, and liv.
ed in log cabin until he was TWEEN.
ty-one years of age.
Andrew johnson was apprenticcd
toa tailor at the age of ten years by
his widowed mother. He was never
able to attend school, and picked up
adj the education he ever got.

common boy in a common house on the
banks of the Ohio River until he was
