LETTER FROM LEET0WN.
Oct. IL, 1874.

There was an announcement made q
few days ago that Rev. +. H. Keartoot,
of Clarke County, Virginia, who has
recently returned from an extensive
Eastern tour, would lecture at Mt. Zion
Church, on the 18th inst, and as might
have been expected, the announcement
drew quite crowd of hearers to the
church before the hour for services had
arrived, all eager to hear what the Rev
erend gentleman had to tell concerning
the Holy Land, as it appeared to his
eyes, and the writer wended his way
there early, and think that all who
heard the talk, as Mr.. X. insisted upon
calling his discourse, appeared well
pleased with what they heard, and the
speaker had the closest attention Of the
audience throughout.
The talk was confined to what Mr..
h. saw in and around Jerusalem, and
he gave some of us some new ideas Of
the topography of the Holy City and
vicinity. The discourse lasted an hour
and half.
Dame Nature favored us with a cou-
pie of days of rainy weather last week,
| thus retarding the work OF farmers, and
making seeding later by about four days
than we had anticipated.
The appearance OF frost reminds us
that winter is coming on apace, and
that it is time for us to be making &C
tive preparations tor the reception OF
I cold weather.
Inotice that the types made me say
in my last letter that "Mr. Scoot has
charge of the school at kearneysville. .
| Mr.. Scott is the gentleman who is run
ming that institution, and suppose
that his friends and patrons don't want
him TO scoot for some time yet.
Yours truly and hastily,

LOVE.

We have lately noticed an article
written over the nonme- de-plume of
"Dodd, which reflects somewhat upon
our sex, and we feel constrained to put
our feeble veto upon some Of the senti-
ments therein contained. In discussing
the thread-bare subject Love" she pos
itively asserts that Il bare change OF To-
cation will effect permanent cure of
the most serious case. Upon this point
we beg to take issue-and speaking
from the testimony of others who have
passed through the fiery ordeal, we as
sert that when once the passion seizes
man, and time and long acquaintance
with the object confirms and intensities
that passion, it will cling to him, and
cannot be shaken off, no matter where
he goes, nor how earnestly and con-
stantly he may be engaged in any en-
ployment of life. No, go where he
will, even though it be "to the utter
most parts of earth, there will the pas
sion, whether pleasing or otherwise, be
with him, either as '''ministers of joy
or discomfort. 1t is true, as she says,
that it is her ''lot' "to be wooed and
won, and through delicacy, should re-
strain her from declaring herpreference,
and hence, she should be compelled to
live out OF her choice, she is still in no
sadder condition, than the gentleman,
who ,con and does not ,oin-for in eth
err case, they fail of the object sought,
and their hopes being blasted, suffer
equally from the loss.
Hence one is entitled to as much
sympathy as the other, where each is
equally sincere, and the mere fact that
a mans occupation throws him into the
busy cares of life, with its shifting scenes
and turmoils, he will never forget this
first great grief, but will carry it with
him, even to the grave.
If none can tell the cause that blight
ed her loneliness. OF brought about this
an eternal heartache, then none can be
to blame, for an affection must be
known, before the proper remedies can
be applied. We condemn, OF course.
unqualified by any act on the part of
either, that is insincere or deceitful, but
where each is earnest, or either of them
and fails. suspect that the grief will
be as acutely felt, and will be as endur-
ing, in the one case, as the other:
She further says "whom we hrst love
We seldom wed"-that is not an argu-
ment against the gentlemen, for in the
absence of any wrong in either, it SIM
ply becomes an unfortunate circum-
stance.
In conclusion let me say that viewing
the subject from an honest stand point,
I believe that mans nature is as true
and deep as womans, and is as truly
effected by every passion.
The heart that has truly loved never
forgets,
But as truly loves on to the close,
As the sun flower turns on its God
when it sets,
The same look that it gave when he
rose.

Affectionately inscribed to my friend
Mrs. V. S.-Who does not love the au-
tumn season ? Gloriously bright as
the days are, with its sweet sunshine
and fading flowers, there is an lnde'
scribable something about 1t when
peryadcs the soul with sadness, and TO
those who have lost friend, L can well
appreciate that this season, like many OF
the past, there is veil OF sadness over
every object the eyes rest upon. II you
permit Yourself to jest, or smile, Or feel
cheerful for moment, there comes some
little accidental word, or note, faded
flower. a chord of music, or something
that calls up past memories afresh, and
sends a bitter pang through the heart.
How often, in the observation of de-
caying, changing nature, are we re-
minded of aged parents or uncles, who
have passed lites meridian, and are de-
scending. To them there is no retrace.
The sweet buds and green grass of
Spring return, we enjoy; but their new
lite comes not until frozen in the chill
winter Of death. Yet love for our
friends should ever make us the more
willing to see them called to their re-
ward, and the more earnestly strive to
meet them in Heaven. eff We loved
me" said Christ, ''ye would rejoice be-
cause said l 60 unto the Father"
Our Savior enumerated death among
the special blessings promised His PEG
pie. Then may we not anticipate real
Joy in being greeted and welcomed not
only by the Saviour, and His attending
angels, but by the loved ones gone be,
