Saturday Night.

What Il rest there Is IN the very
words. The week is over and gone.
Gone with all its happiness and misery,
pleasure, and pain.
What history Saturday Night
could give, could it Gully speak.
Hearts that peat hopefully when Mon
day morning dawnel have ceased to
beat. The home circle has been bro
ken. The destroying Angel has pass
ed over it and left its icy touch on Il
loved one there. Sickness has brought
another to a weary couch.
Fire has laid q home in ashes. \
bankruptcy has turned a millionaire
into u beggar.
With great Kindness God has drawn
n veil over the future not allowing us
to know what week will bring forth !;
and who would lie willing to have that
veil removed?
But Saturday Night does not bring
misery to every one. With q light
heart the workman turns his face
homeward. His weeks wages are in
his pocket. lie does not pIod along,
thinking of only few hours rest then
Work again. No, it is Saturday
Night to him and he is to have rest.
The night seems infinite.
The fire is burning brighter in the
hearth that night when he reaches
home the table is set; the kettle IS
singing, and as he throws himself into
the old rocking-chair he feels that
home is more than -four walls and a
ceiling"
There is a another however to whom
Saturday Night does not bring rest.
The morrow is his IIorhWg day.
Pastoral duties have kept him busy
during the week, and now the mid
night lamp must help him prepare
something on which to feed his flock
the next day. And when the last line
has been written and lie lies down on
his bed, he is fevcriSh and excited, and
the morning finds him unrefreshed.

The historic characters which still
cluster around the town Of Enmlta-
burg, from the days of l77G down to
the present time, if correctly written
would possess deep interest to many
of the present generation. There are
many side views also of romantic in
terest, religious fervor and social
friendship all treasured up and linked
together in the pleasant valley from
the lofty Heights of Carrick's Knob to
the beautiful and enchanting hill side
81 Poplar Ridge, that old Henry Gey-
err used to say would read with extra
ordinary interest and beauty, if put
down in the way in which old Mrs.
Gillian and Grandmother Loot used to
relate them. We have hitherto given

IIENEY WILLIAMS. The life, charac-
ter and some of the deeds of Capt.

A RAILROAD NrIsANcE.-A res
pcctab!c colorcl citizen Of this county,
who pays for and reads the STAR AND
SENTINEL, had occasion recently to
travel over the Western Maryland
Railroad. and addresses us the an
nrNod note, His complaint is reason
able and we'll founded. If Railroad
Companies drem it advisable to run a
separate car for colorcd people, they
should see to it that respectable color
ed travellers are protected from insult
and ANNOYANCE by white rowdies.
The conduct complained of would not
be tolerated in cars providing for res
pectable white people. Why should it
be allowed in colorcd cars ? If there
must be classification in railroad tray
cling, 'rowdcs' should be assigned to
a separate ear ard not be allowed to
insult dcrcl. .-..', white or Black.
Mr. Summers .lI Rights bill seems
to be needed on the line Of the Wes-
tern Maryland road:
GRrrNNorNT, Pa, Jan. s, 1871:
ME5sRs. EDITORS The other day
I rot on the train at York Station on
the Western Maryland Railroad, to go
to Mechanicstown. As was about to
seat myself The Conductor came up and
said that must 60 into the 'colored
peoples car, which | did; and as |
stepped into the car saw in large let
tiers on one side of the car the follow
ing: "This ca. is for colored people
no smoking allowed in this car.
At the same time this car was full Of
white rowdica, all of them smoking,
chewing, and swearing. At times the
car was so full Of smoke that ! could
not see. We stopped at little village
about two miles from MechanlcstoWn,
Two more smokers got on here and
as they came into the car one OF them
looked at me and said, "can we ride IN
a niaaer's carr to which he received
no reply. We got to Mechanicstown at
last, and | will assure YOU | was glad
Of it. Now will say to the Western
Maryland Railroad Company, and to
white people generally, that if | could
not behave myself better in white pco-
pIo's cars than those white men dld in
what they termed "nigger' car, ]
would stay at home.
