proceed to give you a few items for this
week. If spring timc has come, its usual
attcEdcnt-mild, warm weather. has not
come with it. Our Oldest inhabitants can
not rccollcct season, during which, there
has lcen so much cold weather as this.
Walter }. Manning, whose sudden disap-
pcarancc has cast gloom over the commrln-
ity. has not been heard of. Knowing the
man. and the extreme affection he has always
manifested for his wife and two little ones
there is not the most remote shade of posi-
hility, that he has voluntarily removed, the
universal satisfaction which he gave as man
ct business. a gentleman. and n christian, is
evidence uncomfortable on this point.

mechanic than Mr.. Reynolds.
George H. Tracy, Principal ofthc Academy
in this town, has left. He was generally be-
loved and ! believe his place will be hard to
fill. A coed teacher who is willing to adyo-
cate woman's rights will lind this good Local
ton.
SEE, ! am informed that the steamers "Gipscv"
and "Port Deposit" have agreed to make
thell running this year a joint capital. No
less than SIX steamboats, were lying here on
last Sunday, which is certainly an evidence
that Port is place of steam.
The grain trade is falling off in conse-
qucnce of farmers getting ready to plant
Kew. Wesley Reynolds, son of Elijah Rcy-
nolds of this town. preached for us Sunday,
two excellent sermons. Mr.. Reynolds is
pattern worthy Of imitation, and is one of the
few who did not dishonor the christian
church. but who was regular Attendant on

Joseph Glackcn NJ. d., who has located at
Rock Run, is a graduate of the medical
school III Baltimore. He comes highly re-
commended by Prof. Smith, who told ii dis
citizen of this town, that he had

examination as he: and still fewer who had

temperate life will ensure him the esteem of
citizens generally. The time has come when
temperate physicians should he employed, in
place of those of opposite habits.
