.w.., virginia COKE and Coal.

Stssnatlon in the iron business during
the past year has had only this effect, ap'
parently, upon the New River coke-pro-
ducing region, that further development
was for time arrested. But about 500 coke
ovens are in blast, including the eighty
ovens at Hawksnest, which were stopped
by an accident about q year ego, but have
recently been providing coke for the great
Victoria furnace at Goshen. Now, with
prospect of reduced production and larger
cost in the Connellsyille region, new de-
velopments are in progress again on the
New River. At Berry, Cooper & Co.'S mloe
men are laying sixty beehive ovens; the
output of coal is 1900 tons q month, and
the miners receive IS cents ton. At some
other mines in the region so cents Is paid.
At the Gauley Mountains, also, dlttere IT
coal seam has been opened, nine feet thick,
where 100 men are now employed. In
proyements are in progress at NuttslPs
mine, No. l, where fifty-three coke ovens
are at work. The Low Moor Iron Works
are supplied from the New River mines,
and the Longdale furnaces have their own
ovens, while furnaces at Irontown, Ohio,
still use fuel from this region, and the use
of it at various manufacturing points at
the West is steadily increasing.

POSTMASTER STERLING's presence in
the UPPER end of this district last week,
seems to have imbued the BLAINE men
up there with the belief that there was
at least liability to putrescence in the
Take II, the convention AZ Falrvlew last
Saturday not only instructed for BLAINE
but made each individual delegate, as
his name was called, rise in convention
and pledge his unwavering support to
the plumed Knight" If, after this
solemn and dramatic obligation, any
of these BLAINE psnhandlers wilt un-
der postofiice beguilements, the next
set will probable be sworn standing on
their heads with the Mulligan letters
help upside down to ward off admins

PHIL KEARNEY Post No. 10 Grand
Army Of the Republic, and ROBERT f.
LEE Camp No. / Confederate Yeter-
ans, both representative bodies OF ex-
Union and ex-COnfederate volunteers
resident IN the city Of Richmond, have
united in the movement to establish 8
Home in that city for disabled Exon
fedeIate soldiers who are unable to take
csTe of themselves, aud invite cOntri-
buttons from those who favor their
charitable work. They further propose,
in aid of their enterprise, to hold a
bazaar at Richmond, beginning on the
l4th Of next month, and will there dis
play for sale aNy merchandise that
may be contributed, plaearded with
the name Of the dOnOr. The receipt of
either money or merchandise will be-
acknowledged in the daily press of
Richmond,
The movement is eommendable
one, not only as q work OF charity, but
as furnishing an opportunity to wipe
out the last vestige Of sectional feeling,
and it will doubtless have the help OF
eharitably disposed people North and
South. The country hiss provided
literally for the survivors among the
victors In the civil war, who were dis
abled In its service. Let it adj mag
naRimity to generosity by caring for the
helpless vanquished.

The Farny Old Clewn.

BOB Bardetts in Buslinqton Hawksye.
And wondered when "ths funny old
clown" came out-th old fashioned clown
with painted cheeks and high peaked hat,
the marrow brim turned up behind and
down In front-I wondered il he was really
as funny a. when he came to Peoria away
back in 1855 with Van Amburgh, Just on
purpose TO amuse me. And he was, and
he Is. inst as funny. was little disap-
pointed at fret; thought when he started
OF on the dear old familiar jokes Of 1856,
that he was going to be q dead, fiat, dismal
failure. But the prince He lay over on
nv shoulder and laughed till he painted,
laue he'd I'LL the bright blue eyes COULDN'T
see tie funny things that the funny old
clown was doing, laughed ill he was tired
and could only gasp:
"Oh, papsie, me wishes you could do

And the doctors little darling and the
parsons two boys Joined in his merriment,
md the Quartet of childish laughter went
ripping and ringing along the benches OF
the amphithsatre, until older hearts and
faces caught the infection and roared, aud
round the great sawdust rings the laugh
went curling until no one could tell VINO
was laughing at the funny old clown
and who was laughing with the children
And then knew that of course the funny
old clown 10 Just as funny as ever he was.
Bless you, he doesn't tumble and dance
and make faces at the ringmaster Tor us
Little enough does he care for our forty
or fifty wears. It's young seven and ten
yesr.old be is playing antics for. A1d so
long as his fantastic tricks are new and
funny TO them, he must still, as of old, be
the funny old clown"

r0.nAY,s CONNENTION.

The interest shown by the West Vlr-
ginia Democracy in the State Conven-
ton which meets at Charleston to-day
is an encouraging omen. A oonven-
ton which was called mainly for the
purpose of choosing delegates to the
National Convention would not natural
ly be expected to bring together more
than the number Of delegates necessary
to express the sentiment Of the various
districts upon that subject, but the OPP
portunity which the occasion afforded Of
putting the party organization in the
State on a campaign footing and ar
ranging the details Of this falls canvass,

Gratis of nearly every section, and it is
probable to-day's gathering will be
one of the largest and most interesting
in the history OF the State.
One Of the notable features Of the
convention is the absence of any effort
to exclude from it any Democrat by
reason of his preference for any indi-
yidual mentioned in connection with
a Presidential nomination. While there
may be, and probably is, large ma
jority OF West Virginia Democrats in
favor Of particular Presidential nomi-
nation, such majority has not only
recognized the right of minority to
be heard, but the propriety and necessi-
ty of full aud amicable conference be-
tween those who represent different
shades Of opinion.
The result Of this is likely to be that
whilether will be active emulation, In
some cases, between the friends of diff
ferent candidates, and in others between
friends Of the same candidate for the
honor Of representing the State in
NATIONAL onvention,t there is little prob
ability of the bad blood and ill-feeling
which packed convention is sure to
engender.
Asto the action of the convention on
State matters it will probably take
steps to secure thorough organization
of the party throughout the State; de-
clare its principles and policy so clearly
that they cannot be misinterpreted or
misunderstood, and bring prominently
before the attention OF the public, the
abuses of power by the Republican
party, rot only in the management Of
national affairs, but in the vicious de.
struction of rights of citizens of thi.
state by federal officials acting withou
authority of law,
