The several authors Of these parts proved that
their capacities for thought aud writing hsd not
been neglected during the term. but rather had

recitation-work had not absorbed al their time,
but they had been taught the importance Of
their originative faculties, and they evinced .
meriiorious degree Of culture, alike In style Ct
expression and vigor Of thought, and credible to
more matured minds. aL

Mr.. EpIroR.-The rails on the p & r. II. r.

c. II. Frost has now got his new store on Main
street opened to the public. and has Is nice an
assortment Of Dry Goods as can be found In any
store in York county. Everything bids fair for
him TO do thriving business, and those wish
ing goods In his line will do well 10 give him o
call. for he sells at the lowest possible price.
Geo. Mason has now got his new "Arc,de
Block" completed, which consists Of three spa
cious stores which are all rented and will be
opened In few weka Mr.. Simon Kicker OF
Great Falls Is TO open candy mandatory here
Immediately. We wish him much success In his
new enterprise.

the line Of the p. & Il. r. r., between here and
Lebanon, was blown up this morning, and seri-

In winter, the coil seems peculiarly adapted to
the growth Of the grape, requiring but little at
