The British QUARTERLY. REVIEWS

These periodicals constitute wonderful mis- cellany of modern thought research, and eSiii- cism. The cream of all European books worth reviewing is foffhd here, and they treat of the written by men who have special knowledge of the matters treated. The American Publishers urge upon all intelligent readers in this country a liberal support of the Reprints which they have so long and so eheaply furnished, feeling sure that no expenditure for literary matters will yield so rich 8 return as that required for sub- scription to these the
 Leading Periodicals of Great Brifain.

The CANAL.-President German, who has
returned to Annapolis from trip over the line
OF the Chesapeake and Ohio canal, reports the
repairs to the work as nearly com leted and
directions have been given to have the entire
line in readiness for shipment of coal on the
10th of March.
AT A RECENT MEETING of the msle members
OF the Methodist Protestant Church of this CITY
the following trustees were elected: John E.
Cox. I. A. Newman, Wilson N. Fuller, VIM. f.
Bell, Z. A: Upperman, James Martin and Jacob
Young. L. A. Newman was elected delegate
to the conference. which meets in this church
on the 18th of March, and f. j. Shoemaker al
ternste. u. ID. Cathell, W. III. Wheatley, +. j
Shoemaker, Benz. Carr and James Hoffman
were elected stewards.
Rock CREEK:-As spring and warm weather
approaches the lock at the mouth of Rock Creek
should be opened and let the filth which has ac-
cumulated from the sewers during the winter
wash out. The arching of this creek is newt
able If the dam remains at its mouth since the
sewers of northwest Washington and George
town now empty into it.
THIRD street is in a terribly bad condition.
GEORGETOWN AND THE POINT LOOKOUT
RAILRoAD.-EditOr Star. The people of George
town are not alarmed at any supposed damage
the Point Lookout railroad or any other rail-
road may do to property it may pass through or
near What we want is railroads, and we will
run all risks as to damage, and when we feel
alarmed about the matter we will have some
one to represent our interests before the District
committee. We have mills here which consume
daily at least 600 bushels OF wheat, and which
can be run up to 5000 bushels, and all the
water power needed to extend the consumption
TO an indefinite amount. We have three facto-
ries engaged in che manufacture of fertilizers
whose capacity is equal to 5000 tons annually
and with railroad into south Maryland the
trade would be largely increased; two corn
mills OF the capacity Of 900 to / 200 bushels
daily; and what is little singular, with all the
railroads entering the District not one OF them
has come within practicable reach of u.s. What
we need and want Is railroads to bring TO US
grain and produce of all kinds, and take from
US the product OF that grain. As To the damage
to the harbor OF Washington and GEORGETOWN,
any one with two ideas can see il will work the
reverse-the nearer railroads are brought in
contact with commerce the greater the facilI-
ties for doing business. This railroad no doubt
Will carry an immense quantity of coal, in
which case the value of the water front of
washington will be enhanced double, IL not
treble. GEORGYroUN
