few lines from our part of the county. The

ROBERT BURNS.

a LECTuRE-By WIN. PINKNEY EWING, ESQ.
A correspondent favors us with the ftl-
lowing synopsis of the Lecture delivered in
Bethesda Church, in the Eighth District. on
last Saturday night, by VIM. Pinkney Ew-
ing. ESQ, of the Elkton Bari
The name of Robert Burns, the lecturer
said, had come down to us with all its fresh
ness and verdure still clinging about it. and
was destined to 20 down to postelity. for it
had not yet gathered all its fame. And the
reason the rustic ploughmans name was as
familiar as a household word. while the names
Ct thousands who were Of noblcr parentaee
and who occupied more exalted positions had
long since passed into oblivion, was because
he was poet. A poet, the lecturer defined
to be one who has the perceptivc. the rctcn-
tive and the expressive faculties largely de-
veloped-who is capable Of pcrceiving the
universe within and the universe without as
they really are,--who retains in his heart and
in his mind the impressions received there
from, and then places them in such shape
that they can be recognized by his fellows at
a glance. The world is ever full of poetry.
and it requires but kcenncss of insight and
keenncss of feeling to perceive it. These
Burns had, and he never wandered back into
the Past and prated of the cleaving of skulls
and the cutting Of throats, or beyond terres-
tial confines and placed sublime nonsense in
the mouths of imaginary dcitics or devils
(which some tell lis are the only subjects of
poetry but could sec it in the destruction
Ola mouse's nest by the coulter, or in the
crawling of a louise on a lady's bonnet at
church He did not belong to that class
who busy themselves in laboring for poster
ity. He wrote for the people amongst whom
he toilfully labored for his daily bread, and
in so doing wrote for all times and all people.
The lecturer did not deny that the life of
Burns was vice stained and aimlcss and un-
successful. And he sorrowfully admitted
that instead of being dcivcrer as we'll as
prophet to the people amongwhom he was sent
and leading them up to the mountain tops with
ann and mighty hand he lingcr-
ed with them in the dark valleys and became
contaminated with their scnsualitics and de-
baucheries. But the age in which he lived.
and the teachings of an lily organized social
system had much to DO in making him what
he was. Had he disrcgardcd the false and
perniclous doctrine of the world that merit
is ever rewarded with success: and perceived
IN its full noon-tidc splendor the great truth,
that well spent life is the greatest success.
and the consciousness thereof the noblcst re-
ward. his sun had not gone dow at mid day

LUMBER.-We understand that there is
more lumber lying at Peach Bottom, on the
Susquehanna, at the present time than for
twenty previous years. All accounts to 90
show that there will be an enormous quanti-
ty brought down that river the present
spring if the state of the water permits.
The Wrghtsvile Star mentions a very
large raft as follows
1.-THE largest raft of boards ever run upon
the Susquchanna river, was taken through
to Peach Bottom, by the celebrated tide
pilot, Capt. Abm Barron. of Steuben county.
N. Y. on Sunday last This raft is said to
contain nearly one hundred thousand feet of
lumber and is owned by VIM. +. Whitney,
Esq, of Chcmung county, N. Y Some of
the lumber in this raft, we understand, was
from trees marked by the Mahopony trap
pers, and which afterwards served as guides
to Gen. Schuyler, in his celebrated expedition
against the Indians, through that section. at
the close of the Revolutionary war. The
raft contained twelve platforms of thirty ono
boards deep
