THE RAINS. OF THE lSEAsoN.-ltis a peculiarly
of the rains of the present season, that they move
in very narrow columns through this section Las'
Saturday evening, for, Instance, there was qnite
aheaey fall of rain between the Belair and Ear-
ford roads, about'tsffnits up.from the city, while
on this side of the latter, within space OF sever
al hundred yards there was little or none
This popularity has been remarked at other times
and in other sections OF the county. Inc late
heavy flood in Pennsylvania, was likewise con-
fined to small extent of territory. Another
marked feature of the rains, is that they have
generally been sudden and heavy. What reason
can lie given for these pecullarlues .o

CoNrRADIcr1oN.-Ab bout three months ago, we
published in the advertising columns, a note
signed g reporter 1t seemed to give AN &C
count of some disturbance in the neighborhood
of ssKirkwood" but was so 5nIiserably written as
to lie almost nninteligible and meaningless
We inserted the note just as 1T was written, on
account OF the style of its orthography &c we
are now informed that the statements intended
to be made in the note are false, and were got
ten up to iniure and pei secute the wife ofan hon.
est soldier, who was at the time faithfully serv-
ing his country in the field.
