H4RPERS FERRY.

We learn from Washington that
Attorney General Pierrepont, and
our United States Senator, Hon. III.
G.. Davis, have been in consultation
about the prompt disposition of the
membranes which have been block
ing the way to an improvement of
the valuable water-power at Harpers
Ferry for the past few years. 1t APP
pears from The expressions of the At
torney-General to Senator Davis
that he regards the delays that have
taken place in the disposition of these
matters as unnecessary, and agrees
to make such prompt movements as
will settle the question as to title at
as early day possible after Judge
Jackson shall give his decision in the
suit now pending in the Federal
Court of this State which he expects
to do early in November. 1t would
therefore seem that the delays in this
important matter are now near at an
end, and it is hoped things will now
be put in such shape as to utilize
this valuable property at an early
day. 1t appears also from the report
that several applications have recent
ly been made to the Government by
private parties of large means, look
ing to purchase of this property,
and it would seem from the express
sions i'll regard to them, that if it
should fall into their hands it would
be utilized 10 such a manner as to be
satisfactory to the citizens of the
place and surrounding country, and
of great advantage to this whole re-
gion.
We are glad to note this revival of
interest in regard to the Harpers
Ferry property, and the continued
activity of Senator Davis in relation
thereto, and hope that it will result
in something permanent and valua-
BILE being done with it., that shall be
just to the Government and the peo-
pie who are Immediately interested
in it's construction.

Hard to Beat.

We have seen what we supposed
pretty large potatoes in our travels
around the country, and visits to the
County and State Fairs, but Mr..
VIM Kilmer, of Mill Creek has shown
us couple, of the peerless variety,
raised on his farm, which are little
ahead of anything in the potato line
we have ever before seen. The two
potatoes weigh five pounds. He rails
ed 20 bushels of these potatoes from
less than bushel of seed planted. -
If any one can beat the yield or the
potatoes we should like to hear from
them.

Over the Wrong Article.

The inadvertance of our foreman,
in making up the form of the INDIE

place the standing heading for the

ing entertainment to our readers,
over an article bearing his initials
but no wise connected with his Sc

ing of too recent occurrence to war
rant their being classed as "remini-

dent that this correction be made.

The Philadelphia Centennial.


We trust that the letter Of Professor NAL
1T, of the University, on this subject was
well considered by our readers. Virginia
should be properly represented at the Gen.
tennial. The preparations in Philadelphia
for the occasion are of the most extensive
and systematic character. All the States
have been considered and provided ior.
Those Of the South are indeed poor, ana
probably cannot equal their northern SISTERS
in style, but they can makea show tna' VIII

oc The inducements to immigration afforded
by Virginia.
Therefore, we do not suppose for mo-
mont that Virginia will absent herself from

be there in manner not altogether credl'

Necessary to doing the thing properly, we
src clearly Of opinion that the State
