Mr.. Wilson's Shrewdness.

The special Washington correspon-
dent of the Pittsburg Commercial Ga
zette, in noting the passage of the
River and Harbor bill in the House
of Representatives, pays high COM
pliment to the shrewdness and ability
of our Representative, Hon. VIM. L..
Wilson, in the following:
The Monongahe!a, which caused the
principal fight, receives S121 ,O00which
was the full amount called for by the
engineers. Much of the credit for the
success of the local features of the bill
is due to Col. Bayne, but the shrcwd
piece of work by which the Monon-
gahela retained its appropriation was
done by modest but very effective
gentleman, Mr.. Wilson, of West Vir-
ginia. On the day when the section
was first discussed, Reagan, of Texas,
Breckenridge, of Kentucky, and
Hewitt, of New York, threw in amend
ments. so rapidly that Col. Bayne and
other advocates of the measure were
for q few moments confused. Rea-
gan's or Hewitt's amendment making
the appropriation dependent upon
granting to the National Government
the Slackwatcr Company's plant was
passed and the section practically
killed, when Wilson offered his in
nocent amendment.
1t provided that everything after
the word dollars in the section should
be stricken out and the sentence
added, that no tolls should be charged
by the navigation company on any
frcights shipped from points above
their property. The opponents of
the bill, in the confusion and excite
ment, paid attention to nothing except
the requirement that no tolls should
be charged, and voted it through al
most unanimously. To-day they
found out that it struck out Hewitt s
amendment and left the section sim
ply a statement of the appropriation
of sl21, 900 and the proviso that no
tolls should he charged.

Communicated.

mfr. Editor IL desire to express,
through the columns of your valuable
paper, my appreciation and that of
my many friends, of the character of
Mr.. w. L. DaIgarn, Deputy Sheriff
and Tailor in your town. He has by
his uniform kindness and respect TO
deserving prisoners, gained the esteem
not only of them, but all who know
him. Although strictin the discharge
of duty, and closely attentive to his
business, he has exhibited in marked
degree that expression of manner and
displayed so much humanity to and
feeling for the comfort of his prison.
ers, as to certainly mark him as man
of honor, well fitted both for his po-
sition as an officer, and distinguished
as well for all the kindly and urbane
qualities which make most surely the
gentleman. My friends and myself
well know and appreciate his many
good qualities, and will ever wish him
success as man and an officer, as
well as the respect and esteem of his
fellowman, which he richly deserves.

Badly Injured.

Mr.. j. Rcnfrcw McElroy, of Fly
ettcvillc, met with a serious accident
Friday at Stcclton, three miles below
Harrisburg. He had been to Phila-
delphia purchasing goods, and was
returning home on the Fast Line over
the Pennsylvania r. r., train which
stops only at Lancaster and Coma
wauga junction, between Philadelphia
and Harrisburg. AS passengers in
the same car was one of the editors
of this paper and w. U. Brewer Esq.
with whom Mr.. McElroy had been
convcrsing. He said he would like
to get off at Steelton, to see his
brother, but as the train did not stop
there he would go to Harrisburg and
return. When the train reached Steel
ton it was running at a pretty lively
rate. Suddenly the passengers were
startled with the announcement that
a man had endeavored TO jump from
the train, and had been dragged. 1t
was then ascertaincd that the gentle
man IVES Mr.. McElroy. The train
did not stop but sped on its course.
The word received on Monday is that
Mr.. McElroy is seriously injured. his
ribs being badly crushed. Several
physicians attended him Friday and
found it necessary to remove portions
of shattered bones, He also received
number of severe cuts and bruises.
and altogether he is pretty badly
used up. AS soon as he is able, if
he RECEIVERS at all, he will be removed
to his home in Fayetteville. On Fri
day evening he was taken to the hos
pital at Harrisburg where he received
treatment. His hip bone is broken
in addition to the other injuries re-
ccivcd. He will not be able to leave
the hospital for some time.
The above we clip from the Frank
lin Repository, of Chambersburg, Pa.
This gentleman is a nephew of our
townsman, J. B. McElroy, and is
known to some of the citizens OF
Charlestown, he having been here on
4 visit last fall.
A more recent report is that his
having a vigorous constitution and
receiving the most skillful treatment,
there is some hope of his recovery.
