LETTER FROM R0WIANDSYILIE.
RowLANDsslLLE, Feb. 18th 1862

DEAR WIG Since your old corresnon.
dent "Ph has left our village, | perceive
you seldom hear from this place, although
near your native home, and having Il
few leisure moments | thought would drop
you a line, thinking it might be interesting
to your numerous readers, particularly my
old friend spy who seldom visits our busy
village of la'c, and would ask by the way,
why does he not give The Wing some account
of the dongs around about his present
location. as his old friends at Rowlandsville
would like to see an article from his pen,
occasionally.
There is nothing particular to note trans.
piring here at present. The entcrprising
firm of Mccullough & Co., still keep the
Iron Works in motion, which is great
blessing to our village: for were it not for
this establishment we would have reason to
complain of hard times.
Christie 4 Co.'S mill across the Octoraro
is quite busy. The Captain having quite as
much to do as he cares about, and being
Justice of the Peace, too, will be more than
he can attend to, | think, however, the
Captain will make good Squire, as he is
so good humored he will try to make as
little law do as possible.
The Octoraro Guards, under the command
of our Captain Squire, are still preparing
men for more active service than playing
soldier ut home: a number of the members
are now in active service, some with the
Buck Tails, some with Captain SHOWS
Artillery, and one in the Ind Regiment
Maryland Volunteers.
The farmers here about have no reason to
complain of hard times, as there is a good
demand for all kinds of grain, at good prices
Hay and Staw also command ready sale at
Port Deposit.
find some of the farmers who abuse Old
Abe, and the war against the Rebels, and
say our Government is gone, very willing
to sell Hay and Straw, and take Government
paper in Say.
happened to see the Cecil Democrat Of
last Saturday, and in looking OVERT, found
a correspondent in it who pretcnds to hail
from this place signed " Pocahontas. -
Pocahontas, appears to be well posted with
regard to affairs around here, or at least
would make the readers of the Democrat
believe so. Although believe Pocahontas
has not been in our village since the REQ
John last held forth at our school house on
the hill. Pocahontas also seems to be much
distressed at the suppression of the New
York Day Book, as well as many of her
friends in our village. Now as resident Of
our Burgh, fear pocahontas is not quite
so well posted, as she appears to he in other
matters, with regard to the subscribers
to that Rcbcl Sheet. ! am sure he subscri-
hers did not number ono as residents of our
village. Therefore we as villagers do not

Officers by Governor Bradford, published in

more. No better appointment for the office
could have been made by his Excellency
and none more satisfactory to the people of
Cecil. Mr.. May combines the integrity of
a gentleman and honest man, with the ster-
ling business qualifications Of the officer ;
merits much more rare among officials than
they should be. A more thorough, entire,
answering Union man and pure patriot,
than Mr.. May, we believe America does not
hold.
