As sacred in cottage held as in the hall"
There was a rude but pleasant farmhouse stu

lets that go meap1ering from the sound far into the
verdant bosom of Westchester County. 1t was
one story high, with broad, steep, moss-covered
roof over which an old oak spreads its wide bran
ches, shielding it the whole day from the summer
sun, An old stoope" protected the door, and its
rude columns were thickly clad with the entwin-
iag honey-suckle. Each end of the old black farm
house was also nearly covered, save where open
ings had been cut for the windows, with woodbne
aid other creeping plants. There was neat veg
tetable garden at one end of the dwelling and
small orchard at the other, with the matched roof

from Philadelphia, with the first instrument of
band Of fifty German families. who. under the aus
piccs OF the German Agricultural Society, ara pro-
ceeding to take possession Of purchase of
10000 acres of land recently made in Hardy and
Hampshire Counties, Virginia. These fifty lami-
lies are TO be succeeded next year by fifty more,
and so continue at tho same annual rate until two
hundred families shall have been settled the
land They are not recent emigran;s, but have
been residing in and about Philadelphia for four
or FIVE years past and, doubtless. taking rruc
prospective view of the times, have most wisely
determined upon bestowing themselves upon por-
ton Of the wild but very improbable lands of the
Old Dominion The average price they pay is 23
cents per acre, and the tract is represented to be
we'll watered by numerous tributaries to the South
