streets has this fall been very heavy. A memo
randum, kept at Netfstown, mile north of Win
chester, shows total number, since September 7,
varying little from ten thousand head. II is est-
mated that between five and six thousand more
have passed through Gainesborough towards
Locks ford. Eight hundred passed through Win
chester on Sunday last, six hundred Of them stock
cattle, bound for Pennsylvania. Altogether, it is
safe to calculate that stock to the value of between
four and five hundred thousand dollars have been
driven through Frederick county within three

As childhood's hues depart
You may be lovelicr to the sight,
And dearer to the heart;
You may be sinless still, and see
This earth still green and gay;
But what you are you will not be-
Laugh on, laugh on, to-day.

With less Of grief than Joy;
But have learned, and toiied, and wept-
