Hospitality among the people is a pleasure.

Monongahela County especially, but West Virginia in general, has long held the reputation of abounding in hospitality, and I must say that my experience of one year fully sustains their reputation.

1 It is with sincere sorrow and regret that we are called upon to chronicle the death of our friend and fellow jublisher, Jaaies U. Salnsom, which occurred at his horns in Indiana, this State, ou Thursday morning last, Septoiuber 3d. About one year ago he was ptost rated by a se vere attack of pneumonia.

When Jules Verna's atory of "Around the World in Eighty dayB" was published in France, a Philadelphia pajter had it translated and printed the story in installments.

In that portion where the author describes his railroad trip from San Francisco to New York, Captain May had inserted an original chapter specially devoted to praise of the cars and track of the Pennsylvania Railroad and highly complimenting the "undersigned," as he was accustomed to say when speaking of himself, for accel eratingtbe progress of the party toward New" York.
