approaching, during which persons coop
ed up for three lour,hs ofihe year between
brick walls and in dingy counting houses,
seek for relaxation in the countryside
glorious cUunuy-lhe green, invigOraling,
heallh-inspiring country. During the
busy season, business from morning TO
night. from nigh, 10 morning dreaming
business. in church thinking business. in
places of anusenen, looking ont for
business, on the street matching Jusi'

God made the Country and man made
the city," We would invite all such per-
sons TO cast an eye towards our town for
purposes of heallhlul recuperalion. Here
are our ills as they came from the hands
Of the Creator-here is our beautiful Po-
,omac flowing in solemn grandeur be-
tween its flower decked banks-here are
the evidences Of industry and thrift in the
golden fields of haryes, and growing corn.
We have good society and perhaps as
much intelligence as any town of its size
in the Country. Good libraries are found
with choice literature, besides, the period
icals of the day are palronized. Had We
no other evidence OF an appreciative peo-
pie this one fact is sufiicieni-Me Regis
Ter is found in nearly every family,
Our churches are neat and we'll filled.
Our pastors rank high in ability, and per-
sons wishing 10 enjoy quie, and prof'a-
BILE Sunday can here be entertained ard
no, have their devotions interrupted by
business. (which, by the way. ought to
be spelled and pronounced bu1ziness.)
We have the Courthouse here aud the
accompanying corps Of judges. lawyers,
officers, &c. We have bu, few exciting
cases in court, from the fac, ,hs, we are a
moral and religious people. Our Jail is
empty and the jailor has sinecure. We
have good hotels, well kept, and moder-
ale in charges. We have vegetables fresh,
and we know the ingredients of our bo-
logna and pies. and eat them without any
qualms OF conscience or stomach. We
have The finest Bees in our glorious POLO
mac, and places very appropriate to pu,
to practice the pisca,ory rules Of old Isaac
Walton. We have now in town, for the
Summer, distinguished ex-Confederse,
who "accepts the stualion," and is &C.
compsnsd by his family. Others will
soon follow. We have room enough
and would cordially invite citizens from
the city 10 look in upon US in passing
along The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad.
AS for health, we need only say that
had our physicians no other income than
that derived from administering pills, they
would NOT be charged a very onerous i'll
come tax. We have lately fitted up a
Cemetery, because come of our older citi-
zens are exhibiting some evidence Of de.
cline and may die. We wish to have
things in readiness should such q thing
occur.

MERGE 1t is by no means the least among the pro-
duets Of the North that has given wealth and prosper
ity and independence to that section. While the
North has had 10 advantages ever rs of the South so
far as the successful growth OF the material is
cprned yet have thus far stupidity allowed them to
enjoy almost a monopoly, both i'll the production and
manufacture of brooms. The little Experience that has
been lad in the growth Of broom corn has demon
sIacd that in many portions OF the South it succeeds
in a manner unsurpassed by any other section. In
Tact, the longest broom corn we have ever seen
grown in this section. And yet, Notwithstanding, the
factory in New Orleans is shipping the raw material
from the North, at cost Of upwards Of two hundred
dollars per tun This is not it should be; and it
is with view of correcting this that uevOtlng
page to this subject. The time is approaching
when this crop should be planted and we trust that
some of our planters will give attention 10 this matter:
At least tun may be made to the acre, which at
present prices-and we need not look for much re-
daction-will paw two to four fold more than cotton.
At all events there is money in its production and
manufacture and it is necessary step i'll the growing
