CENTREvlLLE, Nov. 18th 1852.
The County Court-Sn!e Of a farm--E.
Wslmer, Badder--Wheut Sowing-
improvement Of Queen INNS, &c.
Mr.. EDlroK:-Among your numer.
Gus correspondents | find YOU seldom
have one that halls from this region, and
| write more for that reason than from
having anything Of specisl interest to
communicate. Our court has lust
closed session of two weeks without
any case of general interest, except a
case against Jan.ea Bordley, free negro.
for assault with intent to commit a rape
on the person of Ann Gibson, free me-
gro woman. The evidence not beng
satisfactory to the jury they divided,
and not being able to agree upon YER
dict, were discharged by the court, and
the CASE, with all its disgusting details
will be tried over at an adjourned
Court TO commence two weeks from
next Monday. Robertson, the prosecu-
ting attorney, though opposed by q
. strong array of counsel for the defence,
conducted his Case with signal ability,
for SO young lawyer; and gives good
promise OF arriving a. eminence in his
profession.
The farm, known as the Boyd
Farm" at Corsica ! Landing was sold
here this week at $50 per acre. The
I firm contains nearly 800 acres, and was
bought by John N. Denning, of Balti-
more. Mr.. L. Wilmer, Of your county
vas bidder at the sale, but old Cecil
had to knock under TO Baltimore.
! We had fine rain last week and an
other ,hi. morning, and the early lal-
1 low wheat is growing finely. Much
the larger portion of the crop here is
sown upon corn land and seeded late;
in fac!, many Of GU. farmers have not
yet finished seeding.
The country around here and in th,s
county, generally, is improving; the
Use OF guano, clover, lime, &C., is very
general; but VIZ have n.ighborhoods
that look barren and desolate enough.
Il i. gratifying to feel and know that
even these neighborhoods are surely
destined to improve and brighten un-
der the general spirit OF improvement,
d'hus'ng Itself among our people.
Politics arc no longer discussed here,
the old coon is fairly on his back, and
his opponents are waiting to see if he is
dead, Or only "possoming."
Having written quite enough, unless
| had something of especial interest to
write about, with my best wishes for
your health aud happiness, am
! Respectfully yours,
CATO.

PooE DEVILS "A writer IN the Jour-

more specimens of "the poor devil' IN
California than in any State in the con.
tederacy. Among his acquaintance
there are no less than four dry good s
merchants who peddle clans for liv-
ing, and seven ministers Of the gospel
who tend bar. According to him, the
only men who thrive in California, are,
the rough, tough, and go-a-head. The
mer" gentleman stands no more chance
on the Pacific than the mere idler.

cadence;--now it taps slowly, regularly, like
the beating Of heal,hful pulse; now the dlops
follow each other rapidly tapping
quickly, like that same pulse when by fitful
fever driven. Now they unite, the tapping
ceases and the little stream sounds long
note, quickly i, falls to tapping again and so on
and on it sings. 1t seems TO us like dream
that some one has written in song on this
theme, but We do not call it up now; we will
look for it and quote from it when next we
write OF "Rain on the Roof.'
