THE SCIENCE OF LOOKING WELL.-Do
you know, good friend, that it is just as
easy to look we'll as to make hidcous
appearance, if you only understand how?
Some people think it makes no difference
how they look, and they select outrageous
looking clothing which does not fit them.
Of course they look horribly.
People who desire to look we'll can have
their views met by getting their whole
supply of clothes at the Great Brown Hall
of Rockhill & Wilson, Philadelphia. See
their advertisement in another column.
Their spring assortment of clothing is of
wondrous beauty, and well adapted to the
wants of our readers. They have whole
suits of excellent Chevoit and other mater
ial, as low as TEN DOLLARS.
The best way to supply yourself, if you
do not happen to be going to Philadelphia,
is to write to Rockhill & Wilson for pat
terms of their goods, and for directions
which will enable you to send your meas
ure. They will supply you from their vast
stock of ready made clothes, or mako your
suit to measure from their choice stock of
piece goods, as you prefer.
We notice it as fact that all the folks
who once deal at Rockhill Sc Wilson's, are
sure to go there again and again for their
own clothes, and clothes for their sons.

LETTER FROM REV. J. ESGATE.

EDITOR CECIL Wing If you will allow
me little space, l wish to say through
your paper, what have tried to say through
another, but have not rs yet seen come to
light.
In an article to The Methodist Home Jour-
nal-a paper taken and loved by Methodists
on the Peninsula and elsewherc-l endeav-
ored simply to render "honor unto whom
honor is due, and made a special reference
to Rev. II. G. Shippers, of North East, as
my "main stay for pulpit labor, during
period of about two months" last winter,
while my health had so failed as to par
TALLY disable me. Strange to say, the Edi-
tor omitted what was said respecting Bro.
Shippers, as also that part of the article
referring to Rev. A. Bosee, Of Chesapeake
City and, though / have requested an
explanation, because l thought it but due
these brethren, as well as myself, l have
seen nothing in that direction from the
Editor.
make these illusions because do not
wish any longer to appear to have forgot
ten or disregarded the aid so kindly given
by these faithful laborers in the vineyard
of the Master.
You will please allow me here to say,
am not unmindful of the many little acts
of kindness rendered me on the part of the
different Societies of Chesapeake City, out
side of the Church, as well as within the
fold. remember, with pleasure, my con-
nections with the Good Templars and the
Knights of Pythias, and the gifts received
from them, as also the kindness of the
Masons, especially of certain individual
members of that order. The teachers, too,
as we'll as their scholars, have place in
my affections that will ever be kept sacred
to them.
1t may not be amiss to repeat what has
been said elsewhere, that l remember with
gratitude and love, the "flock" of which
was an unworthy under shepherd, :"
during my short stay in Chesapeake City,
and am not forgetful of the tokens of
regard given by the good Presbyterian
friends.
And now pardon word of congratula-
ton to my successor, in this double epoch
of his life-frst, in breaking the chains
of the subaltern, which more or less binds
every Junior Methodist preacher, and sec
ond, in taking to himself help-meet to
assist in CLEARING the burden in the heat
Of the day." May she do it faithfully.
Another cause for congratulation may
not be the least for personal convenience
the building of stabling for the pastors
horse, and the putting it in the right place.
Now let the parsonage be erected just
where it belongs, and convenient to the
other building.
Finally, good people of Chesapeake City,
90 to church! GO TO CHURCH !! GO TO
CHURCHILL! Close your rum shops, and
join the Good Templars.

SPEECH OF Hon. JAMES HARLAN.-The
whole of our first page is taken up this
week to the exclusion of our usual variety,
by the very able and forcible speech of Mr..
Harlan, which is SO complete vindication
of President Grants San Domingo policy,
and refutation of the grave charges brought
against the President by Senators Sumner
and Schurz, that it will be a satisfaction to
every one to have the question, which has
caused so much excitement, stated in so
clear and candid manner. The speech
cannot fail to interest every reader.

GA DAUGHTERS Vow" is poor imita-
ton of the unnatural love stories of the
day, which are SO injurious to literary taste
and the minds of young people. We know
that it causes pain to the sensitive feelings
of young writers to have their articles
rejected, but it is better for them to be told
the plain truth, that they may profit by
the knowledge thus gained in the future.
The authors talent evidently does not lie
in love-story writing.

annually, SO that we may reasonably look
for an expenditure on account of the
"navy" in the next Report, of upwards Of
$4,000.
This is the financial history of this DEM
ocratic creation; and by the commander
of the "navy's" own showing, in his
Report to the Governor, the "navy" was
of little or no use in protecting the oyster
beds of the Chesapeake Bay, it's chief
renoun having been gained in the capture
of decoys, ETC., about Havre de Grace.
But nevertheless it serves the purpose for
which it was mainly designed, and has
been the convenient means of putting
nearly $4,000 Of the States money into
pockets that were left pcnnyless when
Grant burst the confederacy" bubble at
bag in hand, to seek gulf port, in order
to emigrate to some more congenial cline.
1t is worthy of notice that the "salaries !"
in the "navy" amounted to the snug sum
of nearly ST., 900 in 1870. In 1869 the out
lay under this head was put down at
$14,33S.74; while in 1868 the expenditure
charged to this item is little over 81, 900.
Thus we find the expenses Salaries cspe-
cially) of this State navy established ON
wholesome, progressive basis, and on the
increase yearly.
