4 leap year picnic will be given this after,
noon BY the yorng ladies of this place. The
indefinite stoppsge Of the Benwood iron
works is n great blow 10 the welfare of our
entire population. A steam thrashing ma
chine which passed through town about
neon yesterday attracted vast deal Of at
tention. The pudding department Of the
B, lmont Iron Works shut down yesterday.
The puddlers although fully making three
heats, bad very severe work the past week,
as the iron they were working was Of a very
inferior quality. The people and what mer-
chandise that can be SO managed are con-
veYed across the river in skiffs at this point.
Old Soils parting salute Of fierce heat TO
sumner was not SO keeply relished by our
eiiizens yesterday. There was duiie a
lively little scene before His Honor Thurs
day evening, the cause Of which was the
enticing cup. Gen. b. Price, stauch
Democrat Of the county, was in town yes
terday. The Republican speaking will take
place on Mr.. Deegans square in Centre
ward, Saturday evening.
The citizens OF the Shoestring district re-
gret that Mr.. Booth Goodwin, the Deputy
Marshal for that district, felt it to be his duty
to resign his position, for he was n faithful
and efficient officer, and during the short
time he held the position he efIectua!ly
broke up the practice of card playing and
gambling, which had become acts Of daily
and almost hourly occurrence in that ward.
II is to be hoped that his successor will
prove equally as vigilant Hon. VIM. p.
Hubbard, .. G. Scofeld aud W. J. W.
Cowden, have been announced to address
the Republicans Of this place on Sat:
urday evening next 1t is to be an old
time uprising; so says the posters.
Hon. +. Willis Wilson has been announced
to address the voters Of this place on Satur-
day September 18th, at 1870 o'clock p. m,
active preparations are being made to give
our next Governor big gathering, invita-
tons will be sent 10 all the Democratic clubs
of Wheeling and Bellaire to participate, it
promises to be big meeting. For real
downright malicious and deliberate lying
commend US to the know nothing editor OF
the Bellaire Tribune, an eight by ten sheet
OF Republican procliyities; as an example
we append the following from that sheet OF
Wednesday issue. THE New York Times
about which our Democratic friend have
had so much to say Of late, is evidently
sick Of its new love, and is getting ready
to iorsake II. For three days II has failed
to name on its editorial page its highly moral
candidate for President" The man knew
when he penned the above that be was de-
liberateIy stating an un,ruth, for the Times
on Tuesday had nearly column Of its edi.
torials devoted to the condemnation Of
Blaine and his Mulligan letters, and up
proving Cleveland for his high official char
acter. The mud singer had better crawl
in his hole and get some ono who is little
more truthful TO conduct his little nose rag.
The announcement that the mill would
shut down has caused considerable talk
among the men and some think it TO be the
preliminary arrangement for making steel
nails. Whatever the cause, it is very much
regretted by al our citizens Mr.. John
Pendleton, the eloquent young Democratic
orator Of your city, will address the mem
bers Of the Cleveland Hendricks club on
Thursday evening next
