Selett seoetry,
Oh Times.

There's beautiful Song on the slumbrous
air,
That drifts through the valley of dreams;
It comes from the cline where the roses
were,
And tuneful heart and light brown hair,
That waves in the morning beams,
Soft eyes of azure and eyes of brown,
And snow white foreheads, are there;
A gllmmering cross and glitterins crown,
A thorny bed and couch of lown,
Lost hopes and leaflets of prayer.
A brea'.. of Spring in the breezy woods.
Sweet watts from the quivering pines
Blue violet eyes benea h green hoods
A babble of brooKlets, a scent of buds,
Bird warblers aud clambering vines.
A rosy wreath and dimpled hand,
A ring and sighted VOW
Three golden links of a broken band.
A tiny track in the snow white sand,
A tear and siniess brow.
There's tincture of grief in the beautiful
song
That sobs on the slumbrous air,
And loneliness felt in the festive throng
Sinks down on the soul as 1t trembles along
From cline where the roses were.
We heard it first at the dawn of day,
And IL lninglcl with matn chimes;
But years have distanecd The aeautitul lay,
Ana us me- oiy ioweth from the lar-a~ay
and we call II now Old Times

FRosTBURG, MD June 10, 1882.
To the MINING JOURNAL
In looking at the terrible 90, dltion
Of this county renowned 70. lis coal
trade, it is humliating to think that
old Allegany Is PROSTATE in the dust.
But there is a cause foi every
change, and there is one for our dis
aatrous condition. Were there not
provoking acts of tyranny againat
the miners of this region Six years
ago? Those acts were the origin of
the present organization and the
reason its members got to be such
unit as they are to-day. When the
truth 10 really known it is not the
proposed reduction that is the great
obstacle to settlement; it is the
long hours and the abusive system
that men were accustomed to endure.
The old injunction was "take out
your tools and go to hell that is,
if you really did not do what some of
the bosses told you-to prop old
places, fix roads and so on.
Now they have new element, ig-
norant Of free citizenship, to do the
dirty work of slavery, 1t is dis
grace to the governments of Europe
their subjects are not better educated,
more especially as christians, ito do
to their fellows as they would wish to
be done by" Look at them in zen,
corlalled like cat: IN a pound, and
guarded with bludgeons and revolvers
in free republican country Surely
if they were christians the gospel it
self would tell them to act justly to
their neighbors and not be the tools
of souless corporation.
The people Of Allegany are respect
able citizens and l think it is the
duty of the Executive Of the State to
call court OF inquiry and get at the
bottom of the trouble. 1t is the duty
of all business me- of rhe county to
appeal to the governor lie is the
Chief Magiatr2ie Of Maryland, and
ms part of ,he oommouwealth Gss
suffered sufficiently from the stupid
ukaae Of the corporations. Improve
mouts made by oisizana during the
lest several years have been destroyed
in value. II there rs low to rrotect
CORPORATIONS with an armed band OF

has a right 10 protect tie State s
citizens. Ii not We are u bad II ~

long 10 work in bad ar, with three

ing carbonic acid. 1t is terrible to
think that any nan would ever
think OF Furnishing another to such q
degree. Not only to think of it, hut
to know that the Legislature passed
an Act to enforce it.
AT the beginning of this ausp nsion
the public was, I think, led astray
1t was asserted that eighty per cent.
of the mon were willing to acquYesce

result has proven that assertion false.

WHAT THE SURVEYOR MIssED.-
A surveyor who was running town.
ship lines last fall, was engaged by a
farmer to survey the line between his
farm and that of a neighbor. They
had line fence, but had engaged in
several disputes as to whether it was
on the divide. They surveyor was
making preparations when the owner
Of the other farm approached and in
quired

"Find the exact line" was the re-
ply.
At this the man wheeled and went
oil on the gallop, and he was seen no
more until the line was run. The
surveyor and the first named farmer
had just completed the work when
the other came up to within about ter
feet of them and asked:
"Well, have you got through ?"

"And is the fence a foot on nil

TIE ELECTRIC LIGHT.
At Last an Absolute Fact on wheeling
Streets.


Streets.
There is no doubt in the world that many
people saw the electric light for the first
time, last night, as it blazed from the six
globes put up and lighted for the first time.
When the Wheeling Brush Electric Com.
pany fell through, the result OF dissatisfac-
ton among its stockholders, hands were
not wanting to catch and uphold the scheme
and carry it to a successful issue. The
Wheeling Electrict Co. has taken up the
franchise of the first company and adopted
the Boston light in.place of the Brush. The
machinery has been placed in their machine
shop. on Twelfth street, and the current
was put on for the first time last night.
preliminary test was made in the shops on
Tuesday night, and satisfied with the re-
suit, the first five lamps were connected
last night. These lamps are as follows:
At Lewis Schwalb's, T. c. Motfats
w. H. Franks and j. w. Gruob's.
About o'clock last evening the current
was started, and the houses named were
suffused with the brilliant glare OF the
ignited carbon, subdued by the ground
glass globes. In Grubb's, for instance, the
light was in the centre Of the room. and of
course gas was entirely disposed with; in
deed, its yellow glare looked very sickly
beside the brilliance of the electric light.
The room was brilliantly illuminated with
the single burner, the radiance OF which
could be seen for long distances up and
down. The Frank burner is out over the
front door and of course was most conspic-
uous. In Mofiat's and Schwalb's the lights
are within, and at the shop a single bur.
ner lights up the corner Of Main and
Twelfth streets.
Throughout the evening large crowds
gathered near the lights and curiously
yszsd al Thorn and tho sishtS thoy revealed.
and not until the current was finally cut
off, at 1880 o'clock, was the curiosity stated.
The company will put in lights, now, as
fast as they are desired.

The dedication was met by prayer y
Rev. e. r. Jones, pastor of the III. Il.
Church of Martins Ferry.
Col. C. L. Poorman, of Bellaire, was the
orator of the evening, and stepped forward

nastor OF the Baptist Church, of Martins
Ferry, in q forty minutes speech. Inc

papce, and Comrade Taylor, OF Thoburn
Post, assembled the stand and made very
brief hut welcome speech, and received con-
siderable applause.
The choir now sang "Good Night" after
which the benediction was pronounced by
Rev. p. r. Jones. and the large crowd de-
parted for their homes, all feeling highiy
pleased and profitably entertained. :,
The large hall was deliberately decorated
in national colors and presented a good ap..
pearance. The choir was composed oil
Messrs ]. c. Gray and Robert Kerr and
Misses Angie Gray and Maggie Kerr, with
Miss May Robinson at the organ, and rem
dered some fine music. Their executions
were splendid and this was one OF the lead
ing features Of the occasion.

was on hand in force, and Drummond Post
No. 203, of ST. Clairsville, was represented
by Deputy Sheriff L. Z. Sedwick, and Col,

A l,nril.

A rumor has been circulated for the past
few days to the effect that Mr.. Henry
Schmulbach had opposed the employment
of any mill men engaged in the present
strike, as special policemen or bar-tenders
at the State Fair Grounds. This is utterly
false on its face, as the following will show:
Mr.. Schmulbach is not a director nor a
stakeholder in the Fair Association, and
consequently had nothing to DO officially
with the employment Of the men. Mr..
John P Campbell, mailer at the Belmont
mill, who has charge. of the policemen,
says that he was not approached in any
way by Mr.. Schmulb2ch concerning the
appointment of the police. ......
! The above report was gotten out by per-
sons for the purpose of hurting our bust
ness, and they have been very industrious
ly circulating it with that intention. Mr.
Schmulbach has been absent from the city
since last Friday, and We take This means
of refuiing the rumOr aud placing him in
q correct light before the public until his
return. SCHNULBACH BREWING Co.
