There seems to be a strong sentiment in
this city in favor of paving at least a few

The Mayors Office has been removed

SToCKs-The stock market was not only
much more active to. day, but also dis
played more real strength than has been
seen in many weeks, for which the report
ed settlement of the Reading strike was
the special cause. First prices generally
showed advances over last nights closing
figures of from 4 to per cent, and the a6-
vantage was farther increased in the
first hour, but the market Drift
I'd into the usual dullness and
prices sagced a little. Reading
took the lead toward noon, however, srd
the entire list responded, and it was not
till near 2 D. m. that a halt was called.
Some slight reaction occurred, but the buy
ing was again good in the last hour and
the msrket closed quiet but firm to strong
at about the best figures Of the day. The
changes are for fractions only aud are about
evenly divided. Sales, 259, 195. Quota

BuGs1unnON leu.
1t is proposed that u business conyen-
ton shall be held in the city Of Wheeling,
February 20, 1855, for the purpose OF tax
ing steps to bring 10 prominence our State,
as a desirable place for men CT brains,
muscle and money, TO locate. The i'm
portance Of this movement cannot be too
highly appreciated, and we hope that Up
shur will send a large delegation who will
look after her interest and thu interest OF
the entire State. Many good honest hard
working farmers could find comfortable
and cheap homes in our State, and by IAN
