Letter. from the Eighth District.

PHLoPoLIs, BALTIC COUNTY, July IL, 1871.
Editors Union :-"Quaker Bottom" and I'M
mediate vicinity, has been for two weeks past,
much excited in the matter of Moving Machines.
On the 4th inst, a trial came off on the farm OF
Aquila Matthew'S Esq, under the auspices OF the
Executive Committee of the Gunpowder Agri-
cultural Club. AS circumstances for IL thorough
test on that occasion where somewhat untoward,
and the number of machines limited, second
trial was arranged, to take place on the 18th
instant on the farm of Edwin Scott, Esq.
Though the heat was intense on that day, it
did not deter the bone and sinew Of the farming
community around, from attending. There
were also many present from a distance. The
field selected for the trial-a timothy meadow,
slightly undulatng-lies near the centre Of Mr..
SCOTS farm, (the gem of Western Run Valley }
By three o'clock, six machines, Wis Champion,
Etna, World, Williams, Cayuga Chief and
Buckeye were at work, cutting in separate
Hands" and all performing we'll Beneath the
shade on Mr.. SCOTS beautiful lawn, the scene in
full view was lively and exciting one, largely
enhanced by the presence of the ladies of the
household A storm that had been gradually
rising interrupted these busy operations and
caused PERCEPTIONS stampede to shelter. In the
midst Of the thunder, lightning and torrents of
rain was heard the cry Of "fre" The barn of
Abrain Scott, mile distant, had been struck
it was consumed with its coatents-the last load
of grain had just been hauled in.
After the rain, the mowers were put in motion
again, aud finishing up the separate LANDS,
they were set TO work, in file, on large ''land."
Put to the test ofsrarng square in the wet grass.
Several machines choked and dragged.
Thanks 10 the enterprise Of Mr.. A. G. Mott,
and Messrs. Griffith Baker & Bryan, there
were two Tedders on the ground, the first we
believe, that the farmers of our section have had
The opportunity Of seeing in operation. They
twrl and pick the grass in a wonderful manner,
and it cannot be long before every farmer will
consider them indispensable in the bayfield,. 1t
Was near sunset when The concOurse began to
disperse, all We think, much gratified by the ex-
hbilion SPECTATOR.

Letter from, the Siath Distyict.

ROssE's MILi-DAM, 18th District
MEssRs. EDIToRs-D Dear Sirs Surprising you
may desire to hear from this portion of Bati-
more county have come to the conclusion to
again blessed US with bountful h'.rvest, and
recent gentle showers have produced magical eff
feet upon corn, OATS and the vegetable produc-
tons of mother Earth
The stack house Of Jacob Shamberger, Jr,
was struck by lightning OH the morning of July
lst, and entirely consumed, containing GOO dozen
wheat. Loss $500 no insurance.
The most interesting subject with our people
at present, is the construction of the Parkton
and Manchester Railrosd, which has suspended
work on account of deficiency of means. Some
sixty thousand dollars have been already spent
in grading, and am informed by Mr.. Git, the
engineer, that almost one-half Of the grading
has been completed We have some forty thous-
and stock subscribed, now due the company,
and if the Commissioners of Baltimore county
would lend us Fifty thousand more, and take the
first mortgage on the road, this noble enterprise
would soon be completed, and our portion of
Baltimore county with all her natural advantages
of soil, climate, manufacturing advantages, and
her mineral wealth, would in few years, more
than double in valuation, and soon repay Bati-
more county for her assistance in Improving her
own domains. Many of our best citizens have
during the past eight or ten years, removed west
ward and taken with them thousands of dollars
capital which is certainly loss to the treasury
ofour county. This could and would be avoided
if we had railroad facilities
As manufacturing locality the county along
the line of this road possesses combination of
advantages but seldom found In any county
Our hills and valleys are dcnsely covered with
timber, and valuable building stone may be
found at any point for the erection OF buildings
of any dimensions. Our mill sites on the waters
of the Gunpowder, Georges Run and their
tributaries are already widely known, and I'M
surpassed by any other portion Of the State,
many are yet unimproved, capable Of turning
large cotton factories There are two that are
certainly worthy the attention of the capitalist,
one belonging to Thomas e. Ensor, and the
"DeUWs Jack bone" two OF the most extensive
water powers in the State, but yet entirely I'M
improved. As Il farming country, our soil is
easily improved with lime, and all We need 10
make our hills and valleys as productive as any
portion Of our county, is the advent of the iron
horse, to bring US bone and other Improvements
for our soil. As mineral country, vast beds of
iron are known to exist all along the line Of the
road, only awaiting to be transported, or manu-
featured at home. We hope the thinking men Of
Baltimore county will look nj this matter and
ask themselves the question, Twill it not pay
Baltimore county to invest in an enterprise where
her money will he safe as an investment aS well
as have Il tendency to increase the yalpe Of her
taxable property, and bring Thousands Of dollars
into her treasury by direct taxation %
Yours truly, PICKLES.
