FOURTH DISTRICT, June 18th, 1868.
DEAR EWING 1t has been long time
since have noticed anything in The Why
from this District. You used to have cor
respondent here, who kept your readers
posted respecting the improvements in the
Fourth; and so well did he chronicle such
matters, that modest men were afraid to
build a-well, no matter, for fear of finding
their names in the newspapers. This de.
partment of gossip has fallen so far in ar
rears that ] have concluded to note some of
the most important items, in flying sketch !:
The most important work in the District
built last year. 1t is 160 feet long and near
40 feet wide. The Messrs. Wolf & Sons, OF
Philadelphia, have it rented. 1t has been
running but short time, and runs WE'LL
They make yarn, the Messrs. Wolfe being
heavy dealers in that article.
There have been built, within a year, a
great number of large barns,-the greatest
number ever built in one year in the District.
| will try to enumerate them, but will prob.
ably omit a Invertebrates A. Murphy is
about finishing barn, begun last year; its
exact dimensions do not know, but it is
more than 100 feet long, aud standing as it
does on high ground, it makes a fine appear.
ancc. If space would allow would tell
YOU something about Charley's farm, The
finest in the county, and also OF his stock,
and particularly of his colt, for which when
he was three years old, he refused 5000
Charley is "a character; but the most in
lercsting part Of the story il, that it is but IL
few years since this farm was a common too
poor to sprout a pea. AZ that time it was
covered with large, old ihorn trees, in the
secure branches Of which The mvcking birds
IN great numbers, built their nests aud reared
their young and many moonlight night |
have been kept awake for hour, by their
varied and delightful notes. But the tide of
progress is onward, and the old thorn trees
and their vocal tenants are no more. IN
The place OF the thorns stand the orchard,
and where these now almost extinct song.
sters held their concert, is heard the lowing
Of herds, the blseting of focka, the neigh,
ins of blooded steeds, the hum ofthe thresher
and the rafting OF the reaper. But give me
the Jagged thorn and the knocking bird q
song.
Mr.. Editor, ! am like the parson who
wandered from his text DEPRESSION is my
FAULT but bear with me, reader, and you
shall hear about the barns.
John W. Egnor and Jesse Taylor have
built each II large frame barn, with cellar
stable of stone, while near by John Lowery
has erected a smaller structure for the same
purpose. Here are three barns on three
farms, which almost join. Aaron Mingling
has just completed good sized barn. Isaac
Gray built last year very large barn.
The above are only a few of the more re.
cent and most prominent improvements,
while those of smaller dimensions are, as
the yendue men say, "too numerous to
mention
Il. j. Scott has built large and handsome
