C0pPERHEAD RHAPSODY,

From the philadelphia inquirer, APRIL t9.J
The following verbatim copy of q letter. In
Wilkes Booth, the murderer Of President
Lincoln, has been furnished US by the hon,
Vim, Nillwayd. United States MarshaI of the
Eastern District of PENNSYLVANIA. It was
handed over to that officer BY John s. Clarke,
who is a brotLvr-in.law Of III, Booth, The
liar. In November, 1854. the paper was de-
posted with Mr.. Clarke By Booth, in sealed
envelope, "for safe kceping," Mr.. Clarke
being ignorant of the contents. In January
last Booth called ut Mr.. Ciarke's house,
asked for the package and it was given up to
him. It is now supposed that at that time
he took out the paper and added to It his
ink ffun that used IL the BODY Of The Later.
and also from the language employed could
not have been nut to It originally. After.
wards h. returned the package to Mr. Clarke
araYu for sa.ekeepiug, scaled and bear rinr the
superscription . j. Wilkes Booth.''

Drcamily and costly am studying the

my chamber, this bright June morning
There are many things which meets me in
my daily rounds that cannot fully under
stand, or cannot exactly make out AS
sensible and rational.
cannot tell why our farmers have to
purchase hay in the Spring to finish
wintcriny out their stock 1t may he
that too much hay is fed out each day to
the stock; or it may be that too much
poor land is moved or it may be that too
much stock is kept, or all Of these.
cannot understand why lumbermen
will not take hold and build railway, or u
plank road from the upper mills of our
village, to the wlaryes. Such an enter
prise would pay,and in more ways than one
Horse teams are now used to transport
the lumber from the mills. The cost this
year % per thousand feet. The loads
hauled will not average more than half Of
what they should be on good roads, there
fore the loss to somebody is one half the
cost. The loss in the wear and tear of
the teams is largely increased, also. Not
only are the roads almost impossible, for
lumber teams. but for all other kinds.
cannot understand why our people do
not see the necessity Of putting in opera
ton more small manufactures. This is
the way to increase the population of the
place, the business of the people, the
value Of real estate,-to grow thrifty, in
dustrous and contented. Why should we
not have enough Of these thrifty business
enterprises in the village to employ all
the surplus labor Of the county! Why
not
cannot see why our yomg men and
Young women, or rather the misses and

Congregational Conference
Of Hancock County.

The Congregational Churches Of Han
cock County held their annual conference
in this town on TUESDAY aud v clucstay
of this week.
The attendance was Father small.
The churches Of the County are almost
all of them in farming districts, and since
the hackwar,lucss of the season has render
ed this the week for planting, many were
detained ut home who would otherwise
have been present.
The meeting was ono Of interest.
The sermon Tuesday morning was by
Rev. Mr.. Craise Of BucksPort. The ser
mon "Wednesday afternoon was by Rev.
Mr.. Dodge of Brocks,ille.
The subject of discussion Tuesday af-
tcrnoon ''was the obstacles to the cause Of
Christ and the best means of overcoming
them" The subject Tuesday evening was
the lessons Of the War and our duties to
the people of the South-whitc and black. -"
The subject "Wednesday morning was
"the aggressive character which the church
should sustain'
The discussions were all marked for

The reports from the different churches
in the county, present a hopeful condition.
There has been 10 marked interest during
the year past. But everything has been
harmonious and encouraging.
