Corner Stone Of Emmanuel
Church. Bel .Eir.

Last Tuesday morning I awoke to the iov-
Gus singing of birds heralding a brilliant sun
rise, giving promise of day most. fair, most
bright the bridal of the earth an(s skv,"-to
me momentous day of anxious Joy and hope.
AS the hour of eleven neared, the Thong be.
gan to gather and thicken under and around
the venerable chestnut tree on the grounds
OF the contemplated church, and the clergy
were assembling at the rectory adjoining
Of these there was a goodly company all
those of the county, viz: Rev. Messrs. Cralnp-
ton, Brand Coburn, Martin and Pindeil,
with the Rector, Rev. w. e. Snowden; and
from Baltimore, Rev. Dr. Leeds of Grace
Church, Rey. MI. LeaSin of Trinity, and Rev.
Mr.. Perryman of ST. Andrews.
From the rectory. at II A. NJ, the clergy
In their SUPPLIES, preceded by the Wardens
and Vestry, moved in procession TO the spot,
chanting the canticle appointed, responded
to by the choir and the congregation assem-
bled
The ceremony of the laying of the corner
stone was then performed, by the Rev. s. w.
Champion, Rector Of Spesutia Parish.
The contents of the box deposited in the
cornerstone were-the Holy Scriptures, the
Book of Common Prayer, the Church Altman
&C for this year, coins of the day, the Act of
incorporation of Emmanuel Church, the Pro-
oeedings Of the Vestry adopting building
design &c, and forming contracts for the
work, with the names of the Vestrymen and
contractors
We had the great pleasure of listening to the
warm and eloquent words of instruction, en-
enlargement and sympathy conveyed in the
addresses delivered ON the occasion by the
Rev. DIR. Leeds and the Rev Mr., Leakin -
We trust 1t will not be long ere we can claim
the fulfilment of their kind. unprompted
pledge, to come again to us when our church
is completed, and enter with JOY along with
up into the House Of God. - -
;, Inc clergy of the county returned to the
Kectory, and, under the direction of the
Bishop of the Diocese, formed themselves in
TO an organization called the Convocation OF
Harford county; the purposes of which are
mutual ,edlfication, sympathy and encourage
ment, the concentration of influence by united
services in the several parishes, and the extern
sion OF church work within our bounds
rev. 3. w. Champion was chosen President
OF the Convocation. Its first regular meeting
will take place at Spesutia Church, on the
Wednesday and Thursday ofthe Second week
in July. ~
Our hearts have been made glad. 1t is an
earnest of better things which we hope
for. The voice of prayer and praise from
the great assembly has, for the first time,
sounded over that spot. What emotions
rush over the heart with the thought of all
that shall be transacted there in future years
and generations, in the holy House which
is being huilded to Gods great Name! s.

ASSASSINATION OF NORTH CAROLINA
SHERIFF AND HIS SERvANT.-A statement
from Goldsboro'; North Carolina, is publish
ed to the effect that on Saturday week Sheriff
o. S. Colgrcve, of Jones county, N. c., while
on his way from his residence to Trenton,
about three miles distant, was fired upon and
instantly killed by persons concealed in the
bushes. The writer says
"a negro, who was mounted behind the
sheriffs carriage, was also MORALLY wounded
and is since dead. This assassination is uni
versally condemned by the people, but in con-
sequence Of it number of negroes have
been armed as militia, and under authority
of law are committing outrages of the most
atrocious nature. A state of affairs similar
to that of Arkansas recently exists. One
white man has been arrested, charged with
the assassination of Colgrove and Jones, and
also one colored man, who is supposed to
know something concerning the butchery
The fact of the murder was immediately
telegraphcd to Gov. Holden, and he has offer
ed reward of $500 for the arrest of the as
sassins."

To the Patrons Of the .Egis.

In withdrawing from The Agis after man
aging and controlling its columns for more
than seven years, it seems proper that
should acknowledge the many obligations
am under to its numerous patrons, for the
success that has attended it since have been
connected with it. ] assumed the control
and management Of it in the early part Of
the year 1862, when the publication Of a
county paper was neither profitable nor easy,
and when its circulation and business con-
nections were contracted and poorly remu,
lucrative. Since then 1t has grown to more
than double its former size, and treble in cir
culation. Most of the type and material
then used in its publication has given place
to newer, better and later styles The job
Office has undergone yet greater change
From being able to do but the job work of
an ordinary country newspaper Office, it has
now the capacity to do almost any kind of
work, plain or fancy, In as complete and
handsome O. manner, and at as low prices as
the same work can be done in the cities
For this prosperity it is indebted to gener-
GUS and enlightened public.
While The -Agis has heretofore (as feel
sure it will hereafter sternly and unreserved-
ly advocated and defended the doctrines of
the Democratic party, it endeavored never to
lose sight of the fact, that newspaper to be
useful must be respectable, and while it often
assailed the principles and measures of the
Opposition, it never yielded its columns to
individual abuse OF vulgar party slang nor
did it at any time forget what was due To
Others While it claimed for itself the right
to promulgate, unrestrained, its own political
principles it conceded the same privilege to
Others .
Hereafter Tho Egis will be conducted by
Frederick W. Baker and George Y. Magma
dier, Esqs., into whose hands it has passed !;
the former Of whom has been connected with
it since | took charge of it in March, 1862,
and for the last year and half has,been half
owner of the paper The latter is q lawyer
of much promise, and is too well known to
the readers of The Agis, to need any special
or extended notice at my hands. Each of
these gentlemen stand high in the communi-
ty, and deserve the confidence of the public.
Mr.. Baker is one of the most Thorough
practical printers in the State; and every per-
con having business with the paper, will meet
in these two young men, sv..,-.-->-l, A.
pertinent and uprightness of character. In
taking leave of the readers and patrons of
The A4gis, feel constrained to ask them to
extend 10 MY SUCCESSORS lwho am sure will
fully merit it), the same liberal support
which they SO generously bestowed upon the
paper during the seyen years that ! man
aged and controlled it.
Respectfully,

MARYLAND CENTRAL RAILRoAD.-We
call attention to the meeting to be held at
Bel Air, on Monday, 18th June, in favor OF
this road. AT the meeting ut Towsontown,
Baltimore county, on the 31st of May, encour-
aging reports were submitted by gentlemen
previously appointed to obtain rights of way
for the road and the meeting was very en-
thusastic and encouraging one to the friends
Of the work. The meeting here on the 14th
June is an adjourned one of that meeting,
and it is important, in view of information
expected to be furnished of subscriptions to
the stock of The road and rights of way OBJ
tanned for it. Now is the time to keep the
interest in the work alive, and only by full
turn out Of our people can we know what
are the real prospects for the completion, OF

PASTORAL LETTER.-We have received
from Rev. P. r. o Conner, pastor of St. Ig-
natius' Church, "the Pastoral Letter of the
Most Rev. Archbishop and Sufragan Pre-.
lates of the Province of Baltimore, at the
close of the Tenth Provincial Council. John
Murphy & Co., Publishers, Baltimore"
The Archbishop and Suffragran Prclates
in this address to the clergy and laity of theil
province, touch upon many topics of every
day, practical importance to those under
their spiritual charge, Educational and
charitable institutions, which form so great
part of the strength of the Roman Catholic
Church, as auxiliary to its spiritual teachings
are discussed and recommended. We make
the following extracts from the letter, as
showing the position of the high dignitaries
of that church in regard to some of the fash
ionable amusements and follies of the day:
"The Church, far from dscountenancing,
has always encouraged innocent and moder-
ate amusements, as useful or necessary relax
ations. But while approving ofharmless di-
versions, she never ceases to exercise her sa-
cred influence in censuring all amusements
which can be purchased only at the expense
of virtue.
I'VE deem it particularly OurSolemn duty
to renew Our warning against the mod
ern fashionable dances, commonly called
German or Round dances, which are becom-
ing more and more the occasion of sin.

The actual length of the work is about one

DEMoREsT's "YoUNG AMERICA."-Young
America is one of the most popular of juven-
lie publications there is freshness to it
that we find in no other, and variety that
satisfies even the desire of children for novel
ty. Half the good things to be found in
other children's periodicals have been de-
rived from this, which seems inexhaustible
in its suggestions. One of its very best fea-
lures is the interest it excites in children, by
allowing them to appear as correspondents
in its columns. 1t is well worth the small
sum asked for it, of $3.50 per annum with a
premium. Published at 1888 Broadway, N.

What tie English think of the
Pacific Railroad.

The London NerS of the 18th ult., con-
cludes long article as follows:
Of the political, commercial and social re-.
suits OF this new communication between the
two great oceans which encircle the world,
IL Is perhaps, as yet premature to say much.
The Americans expect great things from their
great undertaking, and some enthusiastic
New Workers have already marked out their
and its future metropolis. Their reckoning
is that good part Of the traffic to the East
will now go westward, and that the way
from Europe to Australia, China and japan
will lie across the Continent of America
What is far more certain is, however, that
the Pacific will now be opened to commerce
as it has never been opened yet and that the
development of the wonderful resources of
the whole western side of the American Con-
tinent must be wonderfully accelerated.
Nor will the effect be less upon the central
plains of the United States. The great Amer
lean wilderness lies open now to be occupied
and subdued. In that immense region lie vast
mineral treasures, which will alone be enough
to attract population. and it has been found
that under the arid and barren surface are
abundant supplies Of water. An artesian
well, sunk to considerable depth on the most
arid part OF the route, is said to have struck
IN nnder ground flVef, the water OF which
rushed up to the surface in q torrent as soon
as the tube had reached it There is, there
fore, very little doubt that this vast area is
not only practically added to cultivation, but
opened to agriculture and commerce. The
political consequences will simply be the
greater consolidation of federal Union and
the increasing influence of the West in
Union politics. The Mormons, who have
made the valley of the Salt Lake cultivated
garden and held it as an outpost OF civiliza-
| ton, will now be brought into contact with
the outer world, and must either give up
polyganiy or make another exodus to Mexico.
They will probably decide in favor of removal,
but they will leave the groundwork of great
State behind them. Thus the whole of this
| formess wilderness will be subdued to mans
occupancy and use. Instead of dying like II
dead mass i'll the bosom of the republic, i;
will become instinct with life, the iron nerves
of civilization will grow all through it from
| the great central back bone now formed, and
the vast resources Of the republic will not
only be made more available by concentra-
ton and communication, but will undergo
indefinite increase.
