public thorough fares in this place in

surable when, for years. they occupy
streets dedicated to public use with un-

cases of urgent necessity, to trespass
upon much used public streets.

ONE day last week George Todd and
Amanda Brown, who reside near Smyrna
in the edge OF Belmont county, went to
Hard Scrabble and were married. A
we'll known Justice of the Peace of this
county was present at the nuptials. The
groom was batchelor of probably 55,
and is quite we'll off in this worlds goods.
His relatives consider him eccentric, and
several years ago they had guardian
appointed for him. Many of his neigh
bors think that he is as intelligent as any
ordinary man, and is fully capable of
attending to his own affairs. He will,
at least, make fight for the control OF
his property. He has employed Hon. L.
Danford as his attorney, and the case
will be heard at st. Clairsville, August
25th. Mr.. Todd says that he will prove
to the world that the plea of idiocy which
his brothers bring forward, is only a
game to keep his property in their hands

The Democratic county convention
which meets at Barnesvills next Tues
day is likely to afford a lively racket for
the Democracy. The chief contest is
for the sheriffalty and the probate judge
ship. Both the nominations will turn
on the skill displayed by manipulators
in forming combinations. 1t is said
that an effort is being made by some of
candidates for sheriff in Pease township,
to unite forces with Beliaire delegates
in favor of Mayor Cooper for probate
judge, and in return the Bellaire dele
gates are to support a Pease township
candidate for sheriff. The managers of
the scheme expect to draw enough votes
from outlying wards to make it win.
Attorney Walton, of GAINESVILLE, Squire
Heskett, of Goshen. and "Unbounding
Influence" Talbert, do not look with
favor upon this plan to down the candi-
dates from the country districts. They
combat vigorously the theory that can
didate must come from a ''river town
ship" in order to insure election, and Gil Q
numerous cases of failure of Democratic C
candidates from that locality to "get
there Eli" These gentlemen maintain
that the Democratic majorities are
given by country districts. and that it is
unwise for the Democracy to ignore
longer their claims.
1t is not exactly clear who is in the
lead for the Probate Judgeship, al
though both the friends of Mr.. Walton
and Mr.. Cooper claim their favorites as
being the coming man. Republicans
are little concerned as to the outcome.
for they confidently expect a bright and
competent young Republican named
CASTOR to be the next Probate Judge.
