A "Trip to Virginia.

The pleasnre-sseker or sight-seer, who
win take the Western Maryland Railroad
from Baltimore 10 Hagentown, thence over
the Baltimore and Ohio to Wcverton and
Harper's Ferry, thence up the Shenandoah
Valley to Harrisoaburg and Rawley
Springs, in Rockingham county, Va. will
pass ever . region Of country unsurpassed
for the beauty Of its scenery BY any other
route in this country. This route leads
over mountains and valleys, by lakes and
rivers, through fields andsorests, diversity
ing the view, and revealing fresh charms
and novelties, at every stage Of ones pro-
gress through the entire journey. We
travelled over this route, recently, andcan
speak Of it from personal observation.
Gan aboard" at Westminster, and we
were soon rolling through the peerless
Wakefield Valley, thickly studded with
shocks Of golden grain, neatly moved fields,
elegant farm houses, and capacious Swiss
Barns And here, let US say, that after
passing through MiddIetown and Pleasant
Valleys, and through the rich Valley of
Shenandoah, We have nowhere seen Wake
field Valley surpassed in fertility.
Harpers Ferry we found the mere wreck
Of what il was in 1860, the year before the
late internecine war, when we were all
through the extensive Armory of the Gov
eminent, at that place, which was then a
busy scene Of industry in the manufacture
( Of muskets and other implements Of war
The shops which then teemed with skillful
workmen, were all destroyedi in tho conflict
which succeeded. The old engine-house
still stands in commemoration Of the John
Brown raid, and the hole in the brick wall
through which protruded the muzzles Of
John Browns muskets, is still marked by
the patchwork masonry which closed it
up, after his capture by the q. s. Marines.

-"Come with your families and your music,

Lodge will consider the proposition at their

doubt will attend The wonder is that there
are not more of these pleasant social and fra.

pecially as our Railroad offers such facilities
for them. There are many beautiful sylvan
retreats along the line, most inviting for the
purpose. Clabaugh's Grove, at Middleburg,
is one of the loveliest and most convenient Of
them, and we are authorized to say by the
proprietor that pic mic parties Of ladies and
gentlemen win be heartily welcome to enjoy
il. Cannot the young ladies and gentlemen
Of Westminster get up pleasant excursion to
Middleburgg Let us see. We are sure we
could not suggest mere rational or more
agreeable enjoyment for old and young
The Railroad will issue excursion tick
cts at reduced rates. The fare to Middleburg
is only go cents, and we understand from Mr.
