A (Ckntknnial (Jaiunkt.?Our comuunity cannot but admire and appreciate he liberality and enterprise of some of ?ur manufacturing firms, ulio are going o much pains and expense to have their inductions properly represented at the Centennial. It is not only an honor to hem. but sheds a corresponding lustre ipon our young comiuonweulth. Among ,bose who are justly entitled to this praise s.the firm of J. H. iiobhs, Brockunicr & Co., of the South Wheeling Glass Works, who have bad made, by Messrs. G. Mendel, Booth A (Co., ne of the handsomest and largest abinets it nas been our pleasure to gaze ipon. This splendid piece of design and workmanship is about lb feet in height ix in width, and probably do in length. Che base, franm and ornamental work ,re composed ot richly polished native lack and Frerch^valnuts. The frame work is to bo united by large plates of lass "of say by feet. These work in lrnost air-tight iini-hed grooves, so inoothly and thoroughly are they fitted ogether. The design and get-up f the wholo cabinet is the work of the firm's artiznr.s, nd has th?i merit of being a fine specimen of what our Wheeling furniture nen and cabinet makers can do in that ine; and further, it convoys the fact that ur merchants who are in need of cabinet work, such as show cases, need not go broad to have it d no, when right at ome a finer and cheaper article may e had. To form a belter idea of the dimenions of the Messrs. IJobbs, Brockunier : Cos. cabinet, we may .-ay that when ompleted it will cost between $1,000 und 1,200.

IV Taylor, requires some slight notice at our hands. Mr. Pratt is Superintendent of the said school, and knowing there was to be an exhibition of the pupils' progress in their study, we earnestly requested him to prepare a feport for the Rkqistxr, which ha kindly consented to do, to the satisfaction oi ' most all the citizens of Bridgeport. Ws 1 are lurtbar informed by prominent citi zens that 31r. Taylor perverted the lacti when he asserted that "he omitted U ! mention that several members of the ; Board of Education, announced to tlx ! audience, after the presentation of diplo j in as to nine pupils, that by resolution o j the Board of Education at their lat meet I ing, any child so dismissed could returi ! at any time and finish the prescribe! | course of study." The Superintendent, nor any on 1 present, unless it be the author of th : "card," thought for a moment that th 1 Board intended to reflect upon Mi Pratt. The object of the remarks was t notify those who had graduated, and de sired to renew their studies at any tira thereafter, were at liberty to do so. Tha is all, and nothing more.

John McDowjcll, Esq , corresponding Cl secretary of the Washington County Agricultural Society, is actively engaged in collecting and arranging samples of wool grown in this county, for display at the ^ Centennial. Mr. Robert Vanvi.onis, of the Keystone sheep larm, Carroll township, snd Win. L. Archer, of Burgetts town, have been selected to prepare sain- " pies representing the American Merino wools lrom Washington aounty. Intxlliukkck has been received by relatives, which leads to the belief that James R. McConaughy. formerly a stu- g dent of Washington and Jefferson Col- c lege, was recently murdered in Nebraska. The body was found in the woods, where it had evidently lain for some I time. The circumstances attending the n finding were very suggestive of murder. The deceased was a young unmarried man, aged about twenty-live years, ^tnd until a lew years ago resided with his b deceased father's family, at Bridgeport, Ohio lie formed many acquaintances while here, and had he concluded his o studies, would have graduated in the < class of 1872. Somk time during Sunday night last a Jewish peddler named Nathan Manhcim 01 was robbed ot about $150 worth of no- 1( tions and other goods, which he had ft placed in the stable in the rear of the dwelling of James A. Nichol, on a portion of the old Mansion House property, T in this place. The stable has been rented and used bv Manheiin lor some time in which to keep hi* horse aud buck-wagon, I r and the goods were contained in a couple | ol' heavy sacks placed in one of the stalls. Entrance was effected by prying loose an outer board fronting the v manger, into which a large hole had been eaten. Manheim baa been traversing our county for two or throe years past selling various kinds of goods and purchasing lurs. We believe his home is T in Pittsburg. There is no clue to the thief. j ^ KM KK MF.WM.
