highly esteemed iSr It's curative properties.
There is also magnesia spring, and a
spring Of pure mountain water all within
a few feet Of each other. Rawley is de-
lightful place Of resort There were about
800 guests present at the time of our visit,
The buildings arc located directly upon the
mountain side, and the springs are within
a few yards Of the hotel. A handsome
pavilion for the accommodation Of band
If music has been erected in front Of the
main building, in which band is stationed
daily, and plays for several hours in the
forenoon and also in the afternoon. The
evening winds up with a hop. The hotel
is spacious and airy, well kept, neat and
clean, from bottom to top. The fare is
the best, the walters attentive, and the
proprietor as bland as May morning.
The scenery is bold and striking, comman-
ding, from several accessible crags upon

The Primary Meetings.

We commend to the Democratic party
Of Carroll the following well-timed re-
marks from the Montgomery county Sen
tinel, and hope our friends win profit by
them
The call for the meeting Of the primaries
has been made, and on the 2nd Of August
the Democracy Of the county is expected
to prepare for action. Send in your good
men and true, those who have stood by
the old flag through sunshine and storm,
and you may expect to hear a good report
when the result is duly chronicled On
the primaries depend the character of the
Convention that is to assemble in Balti-
more on the 18th Of August, to represent
the viii of the people in the choice they
make Of gentlemen as candidates for
Comptroller Of the Treasury-the most
important Office in the State-and for
Clerk Of the Court of Appeals. If you
want your work well done, send your best
men, neither tricksters nor trimmers, or
those who may have @an axe to grind"
Put solid men to the front, and let the
solid men of Montgomery attend the pri-
maries. This is what has brought the
primaries into disrepute-the absence Of
the solid men from the meetings and the
yielding up Of their management to few
managers. Now is the time to checkmate
such proceedings. Let the people turn
out in a body and represent themselves,
take part in the proceedings, vote for the
men of their choice, and they viii effec-
tually kill off all management, and have
their wishes fairly represented. These
primary meetings are just what Democracy
means--the people meet in the council te
do their own business, and when the nomi
nations are made this power is delegated
to others, to carry out the wishes Of The
people II is an important matter, then
that the people attend these meetings and
see that every thing is done ''upon tn,
square"
II is easy to see that the few can contro
the many, when the primaries are bu
thinly attended, and it is just as easy :.
see that the people win be fairly represen
ted when they do their own business.

A baby, eleven inches in length, and
weighing only sixteen ounces, was born
recently in Altoona, Pa. The Altoona Tri-
6ne says common tea-cup was large
enough to entirely cover its head and
reach down to its shoulders, while its arms
and legs were the dimensions Of one little
finger These general proportions will
give some faint idea of the smallness of
the infant, which was perfectly formed in
its every member, though its face looked
like the face of an aged person. The
mothers name is Mrs. Henry Rutland, and
the infant lived for thirteen days Mrs.
Rutland is said to have once before given
birth to a child weighing three pounds,
while two other Of her children are of the
ordinary size, and are healthy and thriv-
ing.

AoolDENT.-Mr. Jerome Noel, residing
near Bonaughtown, Adams county, met
with serious accident few days ago.
While engaged in reaping grain, he hap
pened to step over in front of the reaper,
when the horses started and the knives
caught him, cutting one of his legs Sc
verely, and one of the guards entered near
the ankle, cutting the sinews and into the
bone.
The CRops.-The crops in this vicinity
far exceed the expectations of our farmers.
The wheat crop is larger than it has been
for many years. The oats, which several
weeks ago was considered failure, will
be a fair yield. The corn looks very
promising.-Hdnocer CtiseH.

Nearly year ago, John Frazer, aged
%, enticed Kate Faulsteck, aged II, from
her home, in Wheeling, W. Va, and the
couple started for Pittsburg, but were cap
tured, and the girl was taken back to her
parents. A few weeks since, another
runaway was planned, and Frazer and the
girl went to Pittsburg, and thence to Har-
mony, where they stopped at hotel On
Friday last, Frazier shot the girl in room
Of the hotel, and then shot himself. He
lived but few hours, and at last accounts
she was not expected to recover. 1t is
supposed they were privately married, and
that Frazer was jealous.

FRAUDS ON FARMERS. "A acorrespon-

wheat very superior, and more than an aver.
age yield is claimed. If -four should be high

grain, will be the cause.
Odts.-In general we find this crop good
many fields presenting as fine an appearance
as the farmer can desire, and after days
ride we came TO the conclusion that this crop
would come fully up to the average.
CorR.-Right and left, behind and before,
this crop looks well, not 80 tall as it should
be, but strong good stalks, deep green color,
indicating health and vigor, and an abundant
yield. From all we could see land we saw
