While tho viewers, In making a re- dlvislon or tne bnruueu. win not au- vere to any of the maps submitted to luem, mature cousiueraiiou 01 wieir report bIiows that the lines upon (which they agreed are within the bounds of reason. A gentleman who Is well qualified to make the calcula tion fixes the number of voles lu the (respective new wards as follows : First, 20i) ; Becond, 250 ; Third, 240 ; Fourth, 200; Fifth, 220; Sixth, 250 ; Seventh, 2-50 ; Eighth, 240; Ninth, 220. This Is certainly a very fair answer to tthe prayer of the petitioners for a di vision upon the ground that the old .wards were overcrowded. ! When thoso who submitted tho jmnp opposing the views of tho peti tioners they could not state, or give lany idea of tho number of votes their apportionment would leave in each of the proposed new wards. The peti tioners, on tho other hand, were pre .wretl and did show tho votes each of j9neir proposed new wards would have and did not rely solely upon the empty cry that, "This is the only way the town can be divided fairly and 1 squarely." They were prepared to show by figures, the justice of their proposed division ; and, In justice to the viewers, it should be said that the division fixed by the report sub mitted to the Court affords a hotter apportionment of tho votes than that proposed by petitioners. The more a conservative man con elders the report of the viewers the more ho becomes inclined that the officials hit upon a basis a? fair as pos Bible, and there is no doubt that the petitioners who aiodlssatlafled'becaufco thelrmap was ignored will ultimately arrive at the same conclusion. Of course tho Sunday JYek's and the haudful of schemers who take cousol tion from the bull-dozing and black Syardlng editorials of that paper are not satisfied. Nothing that would not embrace an adoption of their map could satisfy them.

A lot ot Table Oilcloth, ii yds. wide, at 200 a yard crying out that "the men who want tho town re-dlvldcd are aiming at a po'Itlcal gerrymander, while we, the immaculate, public-Bplrited Demo crats, are prompted by a spirit of Justice to all parties." And In the face of this declaration they submitted to the viewers a map so ingeniously drafted that upon its adoption tho Democrats could have a "grand blow out," huvlng secured a ro division of the borough upon lines that would glvo them six of the nine wards. The good sense and sound judgment of the viewers thwarted this hypocriti cal scheme, however, and the schemers aro now squirming under the sting. The petition era should rejoice over the failure of that dastardly scheme. The forfeltuto of their plans Is a small sacrifice for such a result. VEKOM. This is tho- venom that flows from the local Democratic mouth-piece : The court way be above doit);; a thing go small as this, but we oonfiss that wc have no faith in anyone connected with the scheme, and submit that tho action of the viewers, as the product of their labor shows, is enough to shake the confidence of even the most credulovs being in existence. Such language must full harmlessly upon every intelligent ear. The venomous spirit will not be counte nanced by any intelligent or respect able citizen. It is an uncslled-for gross insult to the court and its officials and will surely revert to the source with just ellecL. So far as the Sewa is concerned wo kuow we voice the sen timents Of both Democrats and Repub licans when we say that few care where that paper places its faith. The reputation of the paper, Is such that Its sentiments have no weight. As a dealer of abuse and .slander it is a suc cess and in that field alone is It of any use. In all its protestations the Aews Is painfully silent concerning the mup that was submitted to the viewers by the Democratic clique. Oh, no; the iVcws will say nothing about that. In Its opluion everything that is Dem ocratic goes. Playing Cards. You can obtain a pack of best quality .laying cards by sending flfteon coats in postage to P. S. Eustis, Gun'l Pass.

They were Horvey Mullen, chief of the famous Mullen gang ol moon shiners and murderers, and Itlloy Cooper, his first lieutenant. They were captured in the most inaccessible portion of liuck haunon County, Va., at the risk of tho captors' lives. In lodging the two in Jail Saunders and Keadle nnd their men have done what numerous posses have failed to ac complish. Mullen and his gang, which is said to number from 25 to 50, have been operat ing in Virginia, eastern Kentucky and Kalelgh, Wyoming and McDowell couu tles, VV. Va., and no less than eight of them are under indictment for murder In one or more of tho three Stutes. They are also wanted in the United States courts for mooushlulng und coun terfeiting. An attempt was made by a strong posse to capture somo at the gang about tlx months ago. but the marshals wore defeated, sovoral of the deputies having horses shot under them. The next day after tho raid, while Thomas Cox was riding along a road, he wus shot dead from a piece of woods. The MullenB evidently took him for a deputy marshal. About two months afterward two pros pectors wero tired upon In the same neighborhood whilo searching for coal and had very narrow escapes. Saunders and his men left Trap Hill, Raleigh County, on Juno 10, nnd tnado their way .to the Mullen illicit stills at night. They.remalncd hidden in a chosen locality for several days, and on June 10 Mullen and Cooper were ambushed and compolled to surrender. As the prison ers were led awuy haudcuffed the p.trty were fired upon, but the prosouco of Mullen and Cooper prevented a concer ted attack, and the officers succeeded in bringing them oft.

He fled, They, however, succeeded in tracking him, and had planned to murder him for reporting the murder, but ho sat up In bed all night with a cocked revolver in each hand, and thus awaited the morning, when he fled to Louisiana.
