AMONG THE HILLS.

A letter to the Kent Neps from
Uuioutown, under date of April %, says:
Thinking that few lines from among the
hills OF old Carroll might not prove unaecepta-
Bile to your numerous readers-among whom
count many valued friends-I have Concluded
to let you hear from me, this once at least.
The transition from the low lands to the hills
has always an invigorating effect upon me.
However fatiguing Il may be to the traveller
to be slowly rising hill, only to 60 down as
slowly and cautiously on the other eide, there
is something 10 the ever changing scenery to
repay his toll.
We arrived at our new home 10 Uniontown,
as We expected, on the afternoon of April sth,
and found a comfortable house, and warm
hearted friends waiting to give US an Eastern
Shore welcome. The parsonage Is a roomy
building, pleasantly situated, with all necessa-
ry out-buildings; with garden, lot, and a small
apple orchard attached. As house 1t Is about
all that man Of moderate wishes would be
likely to desire. There are three churches In
town. The Episcopal (seldom used, the
WinebrinariAn, or as they style Il, Church Of
God, and the Methodist Protestant. Our town
Is not large, perhaps one-fourth the size of
Chestertown; yet so far as have been able TO
judge, the services In the various churches
are well attended. We are about seven miles
from Westminster, the eounty Seat Of Carroll,
AHu tue seat VI W tsteFu maTllhuu SOiieRe.
The location Of this Institution Is very fne.
1t stands upon an eminence, overlooking the
city OF Westminsterj and the spires ofits beauti-
full churches. From its cupola you may
survey large extent Of the finest agricultural
section in the State. A prominent feature 10
every landscape here 10 the large red barns
that meet the eye at almost every turn. These,
with the plain, substantial dwellings, mostly
in good repair, give an air OF thrift and COM
fort to the whole community I think the
whole Bovine race owe thanks to the honest
old Dutch farmers, who frat invented red
barns, and IL the shiveriug cattle on the
Eastern Shore were ever 10 see one they would
never cease lowing until they had secured
like Accommodations. II. G. G.
