Surrsy.-For several days the County
Surveyor has been running the lines Of the
property recently sold by Mrs. Rittenhouse
to Barclay Reynolds. Quite difficulty
has been experienced in finding starting
point that will make the lines and distances
agree with the old deeds. The flags and
chainmen IN our streets created quite an
excitement, as many thought it another
railroad party.
Sales Of Property.-Lewis Richards has
sold his blacksmith shop and lot of land,
on Main street, to John T. Hines, for $595.
B. C. Reynolds, exector of VIM. Reynolds,
decd sold at public sale, in the village OF
Harrisville, one mile west Of us, dwelling
house and coach shop, to Samuel I. Wiley,
for $685.; but little over half of what was
offered for it year ago.
Fair and Festipal-That long looked for
event, is over. 1t was quite success.
The gross receipts were about 81, 400. The
museum was said by all visitors to be quite
creditable affair, and realized $127S5.
The dinner table was very attractive and
paid we'll, as also did the diners. The Ris-
ing Sun Band and Oxford Orchestra added
much to the enjoyment of the occasion.
The yellow covered books have subsded
and no one mourns their departure.
A Pocket Book, lying round loose, was
picked up by one of our citizens few
mornings ago. Any one able to tell a
square tale about it, may be able to get it,
if claimed as their property.

PORT DEPOSIT ITEMS.

December 1st our river was closed with
ice, and has so continued. Private ice
houses are all filled. The Baltimore houses
are nearly full.
The Methodist tableaux cleared $3.50.
The Presbyterian fair cleared over 1000.
A buggy brought $3.50; three cakes, 800,
and an afghan 5000. The Episcopalians
had Christmas tree and a happy time
with their Sabbath school children. Don I
think the other churches have as much
appreciation of Sabbath-school children.
The millennium is coming. People are
getting wonderfully drawn together in this
section. Nobody ever heard of as many
weddings as we have had during the last
two weeks. 1t may be coming slowly, for
there are robbers about yet. The dwell
ings of A. Orr, ]. J. Abrahams, j. w.
Abrahams, and Mrs. 1. B. Glacken, have
been entered. Loss, $120 cash, one hog,

CHOW TO GO WEST"

Forty years ago, Illinois was as far West
as most people wished to 60 and Journeys
were made in the legendary "Prairie
Schooner" but in these days Of Progress,
and Improvement, the word West has come
/ to mean Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas, Colo.
RADIO, California. and the Territories, and
the Traveller reaches almost any point
therein by a splendid Line Of Railroad.
This Line of Railroad is the Burlington
Route, which starts from Chicago over the
Chicago, Burlington IL Quincy II. r., from
Indianapolis over the indianapolis Bloom
, ington & Western Short Line and from
Logansport, over the Toledo, Peoria X
! Warsaw r. R., and running through BUR-
IINGToN, reaches Omaha, Lincoln, Nebras-
ka City, St. Joseph, Atchison, Leaven-
worth and Kansas City. connecting with
the Union Pacific, Kansas Pacific and
other Railroads running from those cities.
Always 60 "By way of Burlington land
you will be sure to be right
The Burlington Route has admirably
answered the question, GLOW to go West 2"
by the publication of a truthful and inter
esting document, filled with facts in regard
to Time, Connections, Accommodations,
rates of Fare, and other interesting items,
and illustrated by large map, truthfully
showing the whole West, which they dis
tribute free of charge. Copies, and addi-
tiOnal information can he obtained by

CECILTON ITEMS.

Obituary.-James Price, one of our wor-
thy citizens, died, at his residence, on
Wednesday, 9th of December last, after
an illness of several months.
Fsstiral.-The festival for the benefit of
Georgetown Presbyterian Church, held in
the Church, proved a highly remunerative
enterprise. The place was thronged night
ly, and the proceeds amounted to over
three hundred dollars. The ladies are
entitled to much praise for the handsome
manner the tables were decorated and
arranged, and the tempting display of rich
viands which were served up on the occa-
sion.
The Holidays passed very quietly and
dull in the neighborhood. New Years
day in this part of the county, is the gen.
eral moving day, and the custom was well
observed this season; the roads presenting
an animated appearance from early morn
till shadows of night hid them from view,
with every variety of vehicle filled with,
we may say every variety of household
lumber.
Muddy roads are al mode at this time.
In some PLACES they are hub deep.

NORTH EAST ITEMS.

Rain and Sleet.-Friday last we had rain
which turned into sleet on every exposed
object, and this was succeeded by thaw,
placing the streets and roads in very bad
condition for travel.
Church .Scenes.-During the recent holi-
days the old Protestant Episcopal Church,
in town, was very tastefully trimmed with
evergreeus. Beautiful and significant mot.
toes, prepared and lettered by fair hands,
adorned various parts of the interior of
the sacred edifice. On Monday evening,
1st inst, very delightful scene transpired.
After some enrapturing vocal and instru-
mental music, and prayer by the Pastor,
Rev. Mr.. Russell, large number of pres
ents, which had adorned the Christmas
tree, were distributed to the Sabbath
School children.
Religious.-The Watch-Night services,
held in the NJ. E. Church, on last Sabbath
night, were attended with considerable
religious interest, and by marked i'm
provement IN the order OF the young peo-
pie. The protracted meeting continues in
progress.
Improcensent.-The Mansard Roof, with
which Mr.. A. Ford's new brick dwellings
are being covered, is the first specimen of
that kind of roofing that has appeared in
our town.
Trade.-Our three principal stores have
been doing large and prosperous business
for months past.
Markets.-Corn, so cts. . Potatoes,
60 cts. :. Apples, 81, per bus. g..

CHESAPEAKE CITY ITEMS.

Religious.-The protracted meeting in
the NJ. f. Church, in this place, closed last
week, after having been in progress fol-
! about three weeks.
Accident-On Friday of last week, Mr..
| VIM Cook, in the employ of Mr.. d. Pal
mer had one of his hands very severely
, cut, while cutting hay with cutter.
Dancing.-Quite number of dancing
parties have been held in this town during
the last three weeks particularly while the
protracted meeting was in progress, but
the dance in the Masonic Hall on Monday
night last takes all down yet. An associa-
tion called the Lone Star Association held
this ball, we are informed, to help one of
their number pay the fine imposed for mis-
conduct in the M. f. Church.
Cut Through By Ics.-A vessel loaded
with lime, was cut through by the ice on
Monday last, while being towed from Ran
dels' wharf, in Back Creek, to Chesa-
peake. She was run on shore and part of
the load taken off, so that the damage
could be repaired.
Insprooemcnt-M Jacob Metz has leased
the lot adjoining the smith shops now
occupied by him, from the Odd Fellows,
we understand, and intends putting up a
carriage factory. Mr.. Metz is one of our
go-ahead citizens, and no doubt this new
enterprise, under his management, will be
a success.
ErAibibion.-The exhibition, under the
auspices of the good templars, will take
place on Monday night, Jan. 18th.
Election.-The election for officers in the
NJ. E. Subbath School, took place on Sab
bath last. Mr. J. T. Houch was elected
Superintendent, and Mr.. T. P. Hazel As
sistant; w. T. Reed Secretary and Trea-
surer, and F. P. Corney and Miss Sallie
Reese, librarians.
Change Of HaN.-The order of American
Mechanics have rented from the good
Templars tho use of their hall for their
meetings, and the mechanics will meet on
every Wednesday night, in the good temp
lars hall, instead of the Odd Fellows Hall,
as heretofore.
Entertainment.-Dr. Sangsrman and
Prof. DORIS grand entertainment, called
the organophonic band, performed in the
Masonic Hall, on Thursday night of last
week. The people here do not appear to
have much taste for snch entertainment;
consequently the audiance was quite small.
Miscellaneous.-The navigation through
the canal is open again. The pub
lie schools are we'll attended. >. About
fifty canal barges are lying at the wharfs
in Chesapeake. Poultry scarce. {.
Butter plenty, at 80 cts, per tb.

FOURTH DISTRICT ITEMS.

The New Year.-Again we enter upon a
new year, and may it be a happy, as well
as prosperous one, to you and the many
readers of The Whig, is the wish of your
correspondent. The year just gone out
has to many been year of happiness and
prosperity, while to others it has been the
reverse; many happy homes have been
laid desolate. and the occupants turned
homeless and friendless on the world, since
the beginning of 1871. In our own Dis
trict things have moved along in their slow
and easy way, except that the spirit of
improvement has been more rife than in
former years, and we hope it may continue
though the present. We have had very
few deaths to record, and fewer marriages;
but as this is Leap Year, perhaps it will
show larger number of matrimonial
matches than the last.
Public !Schools.-Afte1 adjourning for the
holidays, the schools we're again opened on
Tuesday morning, and the children go
back to their books, fully persuaded that
classes candy" is better than roast tur-
key.
Prssentation.-Miss Emma w. Egnor,
with the assistance of a few kind friends,
presented to the Jackson Hall, short time
since, magnificent bible, which was re-
ceived ON behalf of the Hall by the Rev.
Joseph Dare, with some appropriate re-
marks.
The Roads.-It is the old cry of bad
roads, and nobody to blame but the wealth.
er. Supervisors all do their duty, even if
they don't mend them before Octoberfrosts
harden the ground. The people along the
eastern end of the telegraph road are de-
termined to have a good road, if stone
and gravel, with hard labor, and no pay
will do it.
Large Turkey.-Mr. John w. Egnor
raised turkey last year, which, when kill
ed and dressed, at Christmas, weighed
81 TBS. Can any one in the county beat it.
Marrisa.-On Wednesday, the Sd inst,
at the residence of the brides mother, by
the Rev. Jos. Dare, John Armstrong, of
Newark and Matte Henderson, of this
District.
Election-Elk Mills Co. hold their annual
meeting this week and elected William F.
Baldwin. President; d. L. Baldwin, Secre-
tary and Treasurer; Directors-Wm. F.
Baldwin, George H. Baldwin, Robert Kay,
VIM. J. Jones, Edward w. Seymour.
