L'OjdH:, f WHEELING, WEST VA., ]\tQNDAY MORNING, JUNE 26, 1865, (Lkt3nMllgt<mi\ CITY DIKKOTOllY. Wheeling a3 it v/as, is, and will be. The-re is much in the curly history of cur city, its lirst settlement, the char acter of its founders, its steady progress and its present prosperity, that is deeply jjiterwuliM? to our readers, ami which, it published in toll, would make a very instructive volume; showing the rapid 10arch of science and improvement, the wonderful changes effected l>y time In the app&n ranee of localities, in th6 char-! actor and pursuits of men, in the cus toms of society, and. the Inanner ofi conducting the business and atVairs of; U&.. Whirling, whienV.vithm tl?ere<*ol-! lection of many of our citizens, was but a frontier settlement, m mere outpost 011 the borders <>:" civilisuitlon, inhabited by' a few bra v.* pioneers who loved tliodan ? r ami excitement of a border life; from this sim.'.i 1/e^ilining it has rapid ]v irrowii t" apojuilouscity of thointe-i. rior.aud b-? >nio one of the gr??at nian ufacturing and cointuereial marts of the ?u st. The -f-ttlement was first made hvCol. !-'? li' /jerZane, and his brothers, Silas and Jonathan, and a few others from tin' south branch of the l'otoinac, who settled here in the year 1701*. I'qJ. Zane ami his brothers, with Col. .Shep-1 perd, were considered us the fathers of j the settlements. They were master j spirits, and acted a prominent part In { 1'.. ? irly history of the city. Many of j 1 heir defendants are yet residents ofj the city and vicinity. There are differ- j ent versi on as to the origin of thej name given to the city. Bo wen's I>i- j rectory, publislu ! in i830, snvs: "A very intelligent merchant of this city I says that iu very early times a Kuro- j p/an gentleman, in the capacity of a j C.itholie priest, direct from Europe, of. the name of W'heeliin, on a missionary I excursion among the aborigonees ofj this euimtrv, 011 descending the Ohio] Tiver pitched his encampment at the mouth of tlv present well known Wheeling creek, where ho proceeded 1 with th?* discharge of his missionary du ties among the red men of the forest. After a few months' stay" he departed and left a name behind him which will distinguish this celebrated spot till lime shall be 110 more, since which it is written Wheeling." It is staled in a communication to the Amtricun J'ionrcr, that Wheeling was originally called Weeding, which sig nifies the place of a head. The follow ing tradition explanatory of this was obtained from Mr. John brittle, who was taken prisoner by the l)ehiwares, lived with them live years and acquired their language. In the earliest period "j the settlement of Pennsylvania, some white settlers d? sceilded the Ohio river inu boat, and stopping at the mouth of Wheeling Creek were killed by the Del aware*. The savages cut ott* t lie head of one of their victims and placing it 011 a pole with the face towards the river called the spot Weeling. The Indians informed Mr. Brittle that Ihehead was placed there to guard the river. 4-ort Henry which was built as a place of refuge for the early settlers stood somewhere m ar the site now occupied ' by the Second Ward Market House. It! was imilt on open ground aiicl coveredii space of-abouttliree quarters of an acre. In form it was a parulelogram, having n block house at each corner, with lines of stout pickets, about eight feet high, ex tending from one ldoek house to the other, and enclosing the whole. The history of the seige of this fort in 1777, and the thrilling incidents con-1 neeted with the gallant defence of the ; heroic garrison have become matters of! history with which every one is familiar.1 A traveler in this region in 1802, de j?cril>es Wheeling as it then appeared.! He writes, "at present it contains about j seventy houses, built of planks and sep- j crated by an interval of several toises. | Tliev form only one street, having one vtnul in the middle. Hero tire twelve or ; fifteen well provided stores from which the inhabitants fi>r twenty miles round ; itre supplied. This small town also par- | tieiputcs in the exportation trade, car rit ?i on 1 jet wwii Pittsburg and the Wes- j t?rn country. Several of the traders of | lMiilntlelphia prefer sending their mer chandise here, although it is a day's journey further. This slight inconve nience is amply compensated by the advantage they derive in avoiding the long circuit made by the Ohio on quit ting l'ittsburg, and the numerous shal lows which retard navigation during the summer." If this writer could visit Wheeling at tlw present time, lie would t\ntl cause for great astonishment, ami would also find j that his vi'ws in regard to shipments to; the West hud been well sustained, and 1 that not only a few but thousands of the j merchant^ of Philadelphia, and the east i S'T'kthisasan outlet for their products I r and merchandise. The following sta- ( tistioswill give some idea of the steady growth of the city in population: In; 1>10 the population was 014; in 1S20, l.VT; 1$*>. f?,221; 1$ 10, 7,835; 1$50,11,435;; 1SG0, 14,os>. At the present time the population, not including the suburbs, is estimated at 20,000. The steady Uud rapid increase of our population is significant, but is not so irreat an indication of the progress of lur city as is the increase of our whole sale business houses and manufactur ing establishments, and the changed pursuits of the inhabitants, all of which art solid, substantial and permanent in thtir character, and will remain and in crease through all the mutations of traoo and commerce. Tlio population in the earlier history of the city was of that character pecu liar to the times and the organization of Southern society. It lacked a spirit of industry and enterprise, and was dis posed to a life of rollicking ease. As the advance of civilization brought wealth and security to the sons of the early settlers, they gave themselves up to the sports and enjoyments of the day, hunting,' lishing, horse-racing, and otli fashionable amusements of the time oc cupied the attention of the wealthier portion of the community. The poorer classes were infected by the same spirit, aud only performed such an amount of labor as was actually necessiuy to ob tain a subsistence, the larger portion of them iinding employment on the river during certain portions- of the year, whereby they obtainad sufficient means to enjoy t ho seasons of idiqiicss aud to participate in the frolicsome sports of the day; a few of the more enterprising availing themselves of the great natu ral advantages of the place as a point of communication between the Kast and "West, established themselves us com mission and forwarding merchants, and as such were extensively known throughout the country. The great natural advantages of the location as a manufacturing site soon began to attract the attention of capital and en terprise; the location of the national road through this section of the "country gave an impetus that has steadily tended to increase and* devclpj) these great na tural advantages. In later years the opening of the various lines of railroads centering at this point, has served to make Wheeling one of the most import ant points in the West. Her shipping facilities, with herinexhaustiblo supply of cheap fuel, has made her Essentially a manufacturing city. These natural advantages lias also attracted capital and enterprise from abroad, and in fused into her people a spirit of industry and , zeal that luA placed Wheeling in the first rank among the manufacturing cities of the country. Her nails, glass, railroad iron, wagons and cigars have obtained a national reputation and now take precedence of all others in all the markets of the Union. Her population is of the most industrious character, and there is not another city of her size that is as free from that contemptible fliaracter and drone called loafer as the i city of Wheeling. She has nobly stood ; bv the government In our great national struggle, and as a border city in what | was the leading southern State, has i made a record of which she will never j have occasion to bl usli. Her prosperity i is established on a sure foundation, and j ? the dawn of her future is brilliant with I the prospect of success. j The following list embraces, as we believe, all the manufacturing estab lishments and business houses of the city. We have endeavored to make it as complete as limited time and oppor tunity would permit. It is possible that some may have been overlooked t hat should have apijeared. Tf there be any such omissions, we assure all those interested that i? is not intentional, as we have desirodthat every house should appear under its proper heading. We have also found some difficulty in prop erly classifying some of the houses where they were engaged in a mixed business, embracing different branches of trade, or where the parties were both manufacturers and merchants.? Our space not allowing us opportunity to multiply the headings, as far as prac ticable, the list has been arranged in alphabetical order, without refereiicQ to the extent of the business done- by" the different houses or firms.
