RISING SUN ITEMS.

Ereursion.-The Rising Sun Cornet
Band went on an excursion to the fishing
shore, on Wednesday. AS the boys always
draw crowd, no doubt the fish were very
plenty about Red Point.
Improvements. L. Bonsal, has

VIM. Grason is digging a we'll in front of

The old cherry trees having been removed,
and the street repaired, has been quite an
improvement to Cherry street.
Election.-On Monday last at the borough
election, the following named citizens were
elected to serve as Commissioners for the
ensuing year: Jno. T. Bewden, Theodore
Garwin, Job Haines, J. A. Kirk and DR..
G. S. Dare.
Amusements.-Leavitt's Bell Ringers per-

ton. A Cosmorama exhibited on Tuesday,
18th to small house. Times are too Cry
to turn out to shows.
Dry Times are all the 60. Wells failing
-cisterns played out-streams drying up
vegetation at stand still-roads dusty.
New Ctizens.-Among those who have
lately taken up their abode and opened
hostilities in our still unfinished town, is
a carpet weaver, and cigar manufacturer.
Horscs.-The demand for Horses again
exceeds the supply.

NORTH EAST ITEMS.

Improrement.-The new dwelling of Mr..
Groves, at the corner of Main and Beach
streets, is approaching completion. South
of Beach street 1. N. Benjamin has pur-
chased two fine building lots; also, Messrs.
II. Shallcross and others. The situation
commends fine view of the North East
river and head of the Bay. The stream
near by will soon have to be bridge.
The Season.-May. the month of flowers,
is bestewing her sweets grandly. The air,
at early morn is fragrant with the odors of
blossoms and flowers. The recent dry
term has somewhat checked the wheat
growth; but otherwise vegetation is pro-
crossing finely.
Birds.-We think that we have never
before noticed, or been so much charmed
by the music Of these merry songsters, as
recently. Their numbers appear unusually
large, and their notes more than ever pleas
ing.
A Suggsstion.-May not the recent land
sink in Elk Neck be an effect of the earth
quake, or internal explosion, that trans
pired in these regions last Autumn; and, if
SO, may not other similar phenomena fol-

vassing a school for instruction in pen

Dry Tsrm.-For nearly two weeks a

occasion at times, after passing vehicles,
clouds of dust on our Main street. Several
wells have become dry in Elk Neck.

pure alum. We brought away a small
quantity which can be examined at our
office.
This ended our explorations among the
curiosities Of that region and we wended
our way back to thetishing shore where we
had left our team. Here we were very hos
pitably entertained by Messrs. Rutter and
Wilson at we'll filled board where stcwed
rock, fried shad and perch, genuine fish
ingshore bean soup, and bountiful supply
of other substantial and wholesome food,
which the vigorous exercise of the morning
gave us keen relish for, and to which all
the company seemed to do ample justice.
The feast was thanked by bottle of high
wine that was pronounced A, No. l, by
the bon uiuant of our party who claimed to
be a judge in such nice points of distinc-
ton.
Having filled n bag with fine shad taken
f1uttering from the seine, we hitched up
and taking leave of our generous hosts,
started for Elkton by the lower or new
road which runs through the best part of
the "neck " country, and on either side of
which lie some splendid farms. In many
places we met with fine fields of wheat and
grass notwithstanding the unfavorable sea-
son for the former. Among the farms
which attracted our attention were Mr..
William Wilson's, J. McNamee's, w. X.
Stackhouse's, I. z. Ceilings, Anthony
Georges, Harris and Mrs. Hyland's, Chas.
Pierce's, the Maffit and Vickers' farms,
recently purchased by Mr.. d. Bratton: w.
McNamee's, Col. G. r. Towards, J. T.
McCullough's, and the Plum Point farm.
These are all fine farms and there are many
others equally worthy of notice. The new
road through the neck the connecting link
between the "neck" and Elkton which
is now under contract, is a great improve
ment to that heretofore secluded country,
which contains some of the finest land in
the county, and which is steadily improv-
ing. All this tract of land which we have
glanced at lies warm and rolling toward
the Elk River that forms a water front navi-
gable for the largest steamboats,. For
fruit, vegetables, grain and hay, there is
no section of the county superior to that
we passed over, and with facilities that
will insure cheap and convenient transit to
market, when this region is properly devel-
oped.
