MIR. EDIToR:-As you are weekly ia
vored with communications from all the
important points of the county, hope
you will receive with favor and proper
appreciation, "a few" from a citizen of
"Old Sol" Our Sun" has been par
TALLY standing still for the last hall CEN
fury Qor you must know, Mr.. Editor,
that our village is of great antiquity, J
whether obedient to the command OF n
Joshua or not. am not prepared to say,
nut now, am induced to believe, its
intention isto "push on-keep moving"
until 1t becomes mighty Orb.
The Public House in this village has
again changed hands, having been re.
Gently purchased by Mr.. Theodore Kirk,
who will take possession on the 25th
March next.
Several young and worthy citizens of
our village, have during the season led
to the altar of Hymen, the objects of
their hearts affections, but did not 90
INTO the land of Nod or "Muude" to get
them. They are all good mechanics
and design settling here, with the view
OF pursuing their respective occupations.
The contemplated Rail Road between
Philadelphia and Baltimore seems to be
the all prevailing subject with us at
present. Capt. Syberg, (who by the
way, was Capt. of a volunteer Company
OF Germans from Pa, IN the Mexican
wary and corps, have just completed the
survey of three different routes, and as
far as we can learn from them. they are
all considered feasible; but the prefer
red one, If such there be, has not as vet
been communicated 10 any one.
The Importance and necessity ofhav.
ing such road is obvious to every per.
son who is disposed to keep pace with
the spirit of the age, thong II will adj.
mt that your road is swell managed and
useful" with ali due Difference 10 your
editorial in the last "Whig;" but in re.
gard to It's being the safest road in the
country is matter to me of profound
doubt. Those piles, upon which the
bridges over Gunpowder and Bush riv.
ers areerected, must undoubtedly in pro.
cess OF time decay. think it beyond
the ken of man to judge precisely the
amount of weight partially decayed
stick will bear. Such must unuuestion.
ably be the condition of those piles at
present.
am disposed to think "Peter" was a
little gas-y when he spoke of the bar
relS Of specie being rolled out on the
floor of the Bank at Port; yet have no
doubt of the solvency of the institution,
while the present gentlemanIy Cashier,
and other officers, have charge oft.
".Naude's" last letter was highly in.
terestIng and praise worthy, but | would
advise her not to forget herself SO far as
to entrust me with copy of her daguer.
reotypr; that is, if she is not prepared
to come square up to that altar where
debts OF love are liquated,-for | fancy
her fair face perfect index of a pure
heart and we'll cultivated mind. do
not think shall say anything against
"Coeur" for if he Cor she) truly has
heart, | do not think he will be very
troublesome for a Whitewater receiving
such reply to his criticism.
Yours &c, "kELso."
