There is evidently a general tie-ire
abroad in the town, an manifested in
the numerous and repeat ■ I jirivate
discussions ot the s.ibje ■; By our citi

should be ; it evin a-! a 1 i.: apprecia

That the subject should be thoroughly
canvassed is not simply proper, but
eminently wise. The obstacles to no- \

of sus.-eoc, though a felt lire but little
more remote from the lormer eonsider
n.iuii. , should not be lightly appre’ia- t
ted, but operate a co/ili'.’Pi.' (influence j
in leaching conclusions.
Unco arm\cd at ihis point the ru\t
indispensable preliminary is act;<>n. — I
Single individualsmav tail in pushing <
popular enterprises to sueeess against i
lire opposition or apathy of the people. <
but every man is at liberty to inaugu
rate thorn. Trusting, not alone to. the i
importance ot his cause so much as to i
the zealous pursuit of public benefit,
he cannot altogether fail to command
popular concurrence, particularly
when the object sought is universally
conceded as of \i• 1 1 moment. Ju the !
present instance the demand tor more
water is urgent, pressing, imperative,
a fact well known to the humblest,
most disinterested individual among
us, to say nothing of those who have
large property interests daily and
nightly imperiled. Vet. while the
matter is amply dismissed and all con
cur in the essential particulars, no one
takes hold and presses it to an issue.
It seems simple folly to argue the
necessity of action, if, indeed, it is not
a reproach to the general intelligence
of our people to do so; but to refrain
from it, under the circumstances, is to
countenance deliberate neglect.
The duty of every citizen is plain. 1
Nature has placed within our reach
ample supplies of the purest and best
water; all that is wanting is the facil
ities to place it at our doors. Its use
for domestic purposes all over town,
though important, is not the least com
manding of the many reasons why we ;
should be more fully supplied. We j
want it for our gardens, streets—an ■
abundance to use, some to waste; we I
want it for all parts of the town, that |
everybody, present and prospective,
may share in the advantages of easy
access. As before stated in this col
umn, the single reason which outreaeh
es all others and overwhelms any pal- !
try objections which might be urged j
against a better water supply is the
guarantee afforded against fire —an
assurance, without which, property in
terests rest upon a tenure too precari
ous to speak anything for that sort of
enterprise which not only preserves
but enhances material value, and less,
if possible, for our wisdom.
We cannot think that the initiatory
Bteps of a movement so full of serious
interest to the town can be much long
er delayed. It is impossible to think
that every citizen will be wilfully ob
livious to a duty incumbent upon all,
incumbent upon each. We suggest
that some citizen, or citizens, take this
matter in hand at once and lead off.—
We have many practical businessmen,
with abundant talent to devise plans
and make propositions feasible of ac
complishment. Gentlemen, it is your
duty to speak, then act.
For our part, we intend to keep the
importance of this matter before the
eyes of those with more at stake than
we, and that, not because we have
nothing else to claim our attention, but
because of its pre-eminence over all
other local questions.
Very wild notions are entertained
concerning the actual force required
to propel a vessel through the water.
The American Exchange has the fol
lowing : “A trial of strength was had
at Port Mowan, on Wednesday, to
decide a bet, that twenty men, or
even ten, could hold the steam-tug
Watchman—24 horse power-and that
twenty-five men could stop her when
she had a full headway, the men to
have 100 feet ol coil to get under way. !
The trial of strength took place, and
the men won.” There is really noth
ing very surprising in this; twenty
five men standing on shore would
each be competent to exert a pull for
a short time of about 50 tbs., or in all
1,250 lbs., and this represents a much
greater force than would be required
to propel a little tug through the wa
ter at seven or eight miles an hour.
Tn a day or two the Potomac Rail
road will be open from Baltimore to '
Washington. The fare will be eighty
cents. Mr. Garrett will then reduce
from ijU.25 to 75 cents.

The Indie-' Mite Society connected
with the Methodist Episcopal Church
held an ice (.’ream festival at the Odd
Fellows' Hall on Tuesday and Wed
nesday evenings, 2‘jth-20th insts. The
Ladies composing this society have
and still evince unusual perseverance.
The funds that they have realized '
from time to time have not been sur
passed bv any similar society in the ,

Barton is improving rapidly. We
have a new and handsome drugstore,
quite a number of ice cream saloons,
that, of Mr. W. Bacon, seems to re
ceive the largest patronage. Madam
Rumor says that there is a new Bap
tist Church to be erected. Several
lew cottages are in course of erection.

On Tuesday evening, 25th inst.,
at the Methodist Episcopal Church,
Piedmont, W. Va„ a concert of sac red
music was given bv the church choir,
assisted by .Messrs. N i n. Bros.. Hen
iirickson amt Harris, of Barton. — j
The Programme was composed of se- i
lections from "Pure Gold, ' ‘‘Christian
Songs ami "the Boston Anthem Book
besides several choice solos requested
by the appreciative audience. The
j whole of the programme was very ably
rendered.
The object of this concert was to
realize funds to pay off the debt on
their new and large pipe organ. The
Rev. G. V. Leecii, the pastor, evinced
a lively interest in this enterprise, 1
I and does in all departments of his
j charge. We trust that his assiduous j
| attentions will be amply compensated i
! and that this “charge' “will blossom \
! abundantly, and rejoice even with !
joy and singing, and that there shall i
be given unto it the glory of Leban- j
on and the excellency of Carmel and
Sharon.”

June 27, 1872. :
On Saturday last several ladies of j
this place were discussing the good
qualities of a cow, which was for sale
by a gentleman from Virginia, when
the animal from some unknown cause,
took offense, made a rush at one of
them, caught her upon her horns and
threw her up several feet in the air.
The unfortunate woman fell heavily
upon her back greatly shocking her j
whole frame.
On the morning of the same day ears !
which were cut loose from the engine I
to be put on the Midlothian branch 1
between Frostburgand Borden Shaft, :
owing to some delay in getting the 1
switch open or too great a speed of
the cars, they ran past the switch and
direct against the engine, which was j
at the time standing a short distance
below the switch-ball waiting for the
brakesmen to complete their work, j
causing a general smash-up, four cars
being thrown from the track. One of
them was so badly broken that it was
found necessary to throw it over the \
bank to make the road passable.
Benjamin Oart, a driver in the .
Shaft, was riding his horse up the i
heading without cars on Wednesday !
last when another driver was coming
down with cars. Air. Oart and his
horse crowded to one side of the road
and against the pillar of coal, suppos- j
ing himself out of the road when the
cars came along and jammed him
| and his horse. The latter was but
slightly injured, but Air. Oart receiv
ed a cut on the foot which will keep
him idle several days. This makes
the third accident sustained by Air. i
Oart within the last two months
while discharging ltis duty as a driver, i
Owing to the uncertainty of the !
present political condition of the conn- :

for this week has been limited to four.

Tliomrlits anil Fancies.
Oh, the sunny hours of childhood,
Those happy golden limns.
With their rambles in the wildwood,
To cull its fragrant flowers.
With youthful friend, or lover,
We rambled with delight
Fair fields of fancy over,
Nor thought of coming night.
The present and its pleasure,
The golden hour tilled ;
Each bauble seemed a treasure,
And hope remained imehilled.
But change is written ever
Oil all beneath the sun:
And other hours succeeded.
And these their course have run.
So childhood —youth have faded.
And manhood's sterner day
I Ills come with fact for fancy.
And it must pass away.
But while its hours are passing
And duties crowd the way,
With hope 1 view the future
While day succeeds to day.
And far adown the ages
The pathway seems to shine.
While faith unmurmuring In al’s the toil
And holds the hand Divine.
Not these, for those, I’d barter—
These hours ot toil and strife,
For those of sunny childhood,
Or youth's gay. giddy life.
The spring brings fragrant (lowers,
The summer fruit and grain,
To garner in the autumn hours
’Gainst winter’s storm and lain.
So childhood, youth, and manhood.
With their fancy, fun, and cares.
Are the sowing, grow tii ,and harvest
For the coming endless years.

“Servautgniism.”
Looking over some papers u few days
: since I happened to find in the Cum
berland jYewti, of June Ist. an article
i headed "Servantgaiism.’ Perusing it
! I find it was copied from the London
| Punch. 1 think the jVcws must be
1 hard up for “item” when it has to
j cross tiie ocean to copy a harangue
about servant girls. if tire JYcw.i I
will exercise its memory a little it!
i will remember that not many rears !
since w hen girls were plenty and i
places scarce, a girl had to wash, iron, j
I nook, bake and scrub for a family of
six or seven—all for the paltry sum of
! one dollar per week, and take the in
sults of ,x tyrannical mistress in the ;
bargain. Many of them were delicate, i
j sensitive girls, and often, in many re- |
speeds, superior to their more fortunate ,
| but insolent mistresses.
' Times have changed since, so that!
any good girl can get from two to three
dollars per week. Dry goods being
j cheap, (thanks to Baltzeei, a Co. )
! they can now somewhat “command
the situation,” and deserve credit for
the assertion of their rights.
Another thing. Lota young man I
idly loaf, stand oil the street-corners,
lounge at billiard-saloons and such i
[daces, he is at once looked upon as ti ,
| dangerous character, not tit for the j
! company of respectable workingmen.
| But allow a girl to be as idle as she !
1 wishes, let iter recline in iter easy
i chair, pare her finger-nails and crimp
her hair for evening, O, she is a lady i
Let iter dare rise from her chair of
1 idleness, be independent, teach music
1 or school, sew, or, if site can do none
! of these, hire out as a servant girl, she
is at once a marked personage for the
scoffs of the majority of the insolent
public ; that is the premium set upon
luxurious idleness ; this the discount
upon holiest, independent labor.

Dear Journal :—The song, “uj>
in n balloon,’ is in the minds of all
our people to-dav; at least in the
minds of all who have not been too
lazy to got up and see a grand bal
loon ascension. Prof. Donaldson
made a trip to the clouds from this j
place on last V\ ednesdav, the ->th. inst.,
but I did not get to see him then as j
1 was out of town until evening. On j
Saturday morning he returned, and i
to-dav mu lea second ascension.

have the crowd. The streets were
full ot people; all lookin'! then' very

the ropes wore let loose and the ba h 1 <
loon began to as"cnd up, up, past luv

house, with the professor hanging by
one hand to a trapeze bar. No bask
et, or anything else in which to ride j
was attached to ride in, only two ropes j
hanging down with a cross stick at I
i their ends. Fp. up. twice as high j
| three, four, live times as high as

Land sinews like hammered steel, slow- I
lv raised himself mid grasped the bar j
with both hands and raised himselft
on it. Then lie swung through the !
ropes, laid crosswise half wav up the
ropes, and when he had got up so !
high that he looked like a small boy
in the air, he balanced himself with
his back on the bar, hands loose, feet
loose, then shot head foremost down
land caught with his feet and hung in
! that position waving a hunkerchief
to the gaping crowd below. Awav
up there he raised himself back into
his perch, then climbed up the ropes
' and sat himself down in the ring of
| the balloon : there he sat while the
j balloon grew less and h-.-s, from a
I sixteen foot diameter (on hnyshoek,
then a half bushel, a pumpkin, a child's

Do they really know any better than my
self which is best, or have they a selfish in
terest in the matter?
If 1 buy it and find 1 have not the best,
who will be the loser? Will they, or cun
they, give me all the necessary instructions
for using the Machine and keeping it in
order?
If 1 buy tiii- Machine vvh.it assurance
have 1 that 1 can ye I ;l repaired without
much trouble should it ever yet broken or
any part of it yet lost ?
