The outlook for the Senatorial
Convention at MarttnsGurg to-day is
not the most encouraging for party
harmony and success. We hope,
however, that wisdom and prudence
will govern the Democratic councils,
and that the result will be nomi-
nee who will receive the solid and
hearty support of all wings of the
party. We need every man at his
post, with no divisions, to win the
great battle in November, and this
fact should receive due consideration
at Martinsbnrg.

The primary election is over, the
contests within the party have been
decided. aud our columns are now
seeded for more important purposes
than TO be encountered with noticing
sense less personal vituperation from
insignificant sources. We propose
to lend our efforts towards closing up
the ranks and presenting solid front
to the common foe for the final
onset in November, and those dis
posed to join the Iaggards, camp fol-
lowers or .dessrters must fall to the
rear. The Democratic party needs
the services of every man and every
newspaper claiming to fight under
its hag, and we propose to do
our full share in the great battle. let
the big dogs howl and little ours
yelp as they may.

The Leon w. Washburn's. Circus
and MenageriI is on on its travels and
will visit Charles Town Tuesday,
Sept. 4. The bill boards. dead walls
and old barns and deserted houses
are placarded with red aud yellow
posters, emblazoned with the figures
of creatures from every cline. I'm
doubleday, in popular estimation, the
chief attraction of Mr.. Washburn's
menagerie lies in Cupid" the little
baby elephant, who is only feet
high, three months Did, and weighs
two hundred pounds. Cupid is The
most gentle aud tiniest of elephants,
and is never so pleased as when
crowd gathers around him, when lie
at once begins pnking his trunk in
all directions for dainties. The ris-
itors give him cakes, candy, apples
and fruit, at an average OF two huslI-
els day, and he can digest anything
hut nails and guilds of tobacco, of the
latter OF which he is very wary. As
q staple food, he eats hay, potatoes
and bran. He has constant attend
ant and keeper i'll Don Melville. who
has been with him since birth
There is also a special groom for his
quarters. Altogether he has q pretty
good time. He is certainly great
feature. far ahead of any that has
heretofore appeared in this city, aud
Mr.. Washhurn may well feel proud
of so valuable an addition TO his al
ready extensive menngerie.
