NOTES FROM HARPER's FERRY.
EARpER's FERRY, August %, 1878.

EARPER's FERRY, August 20, 1878. "a
Dear Editor Excursions and picnics
are the order of the day here. The Baltl>
more g. Ohio Railroad in purchasing and put
ting Byrne's Island in repair, have made 1t a
very attractive spot. The Trinity Luth-
an Sunday school from Hagerstown, on the
18th, numbered four hundred or more, and
the crowd on the Island was said to have
been at least thousand. The Union Sun
day scholl picnic, on the 18th, was larger,
and a very enjoyable affair. The scholars,
teachers. &C., of the schools here marched to
the Island, accompanied by the Band under
tho leader, Professor Upright. The Shep-
herdstown school came on canal boat, ac-
companied by fife and drum. The opening
address was made by Geo. NJ. Beltzhoover,
Esq, another by Mr.. Williams. The choirs
sang well selected pieces, and the day passed
off with nothing to mar the pleasure but a
slight shower. I observed the senior of the
Free Piess sitting with very complacentlo look,
as if he had emptied his own or some body
elses basket. Yesterday a party of four or
five hundred excursionists spent the day at
the Island. They had q splendid band with
them. Tomorrow ST. Joseph's Sunday
School, of Martinsburg, picnics there, and
or the 2Sth an excursion comes from Hagers-
town and other points along the railroad to
Byrne's Island. A great many small parties
spend the day, or part, on the Island. in
various MISUNDERSTANDING, croquetting,
&C., and many love matches have doubtless
been made this summer on that romantic
spot, or old loves revived sub rosa.
The Catholics have a Fair in progress at
Armory Hall, which is largely patrouized.-
The fancy articles are very beautiful
Among the attractions for the Juveniles Is
handsome doll baby, dressed in bridal attire.
1t was sent to the Fair by William Hardy,
Esq, of St. Louis. There is also a very
handsome chair, wrought in worsted, the
workmanship of Miss Sadie Walsh.
Mountain View Hotel, all the boarding
houses and many of the private houses, are
filled with persons from the cities, summer
ing here this heated term.
Among the old friends who sometimes re-
turn to their native heath for short time,
WAS Mr.. and Mr.. William Hardy. Mrs. ii.
lis the daughter of P Crous, Esq deceased,
of this place. She is sister-in-law, by
former marriage, of Mrs. Lawrence Hootf, Of
your place. The lavish hospitality and ell
cgance of her fathers homo is still remom-
bered by many of US, aud her presence
brought back ''hours that were to memory
dead" She has lost none of that charming
manner that characterized her in early youth.
Her husband, although q native of Edin-
burgh, made many friends during his short
stay.
Those of us who have friends in the lis
bissiPpi Valley, where tho yellow fever now

them to our genial mountain cline.

A Town in Two States.
DroN Scenes in Halft Virginia and Huy
Tennessee City.

Although Bristol is an uuimportant town
it has two mayors, two municipal govern
meuts, two bodies of police, and is taxed in
two states. 1t is in Tennessee and Virginia,
the centre of Main street being the dividing
line, and its peculiar position causes no little
confusion, and many ,droIl incidents Young
couples elope from Virginia, and, by cross
ing the street. enter Tennessee and are mar
ricd without hindrance. A man commits
crime in Tennessee, flies to the opposite
sidewalk in Virginia, and defes the officers
Of the former state. He needs to BIO very
guarded in his movements, however, lest he
cross the boundary and become amenable to
the laws of tho commonwealth he has fled
from. Fugitivcs are often pulled across the
street by officers armed with warrant, and
so legally arrested. Not long since fellow
who had stolen a horse in Tennessee crossed
the boundary-by walking twenty feet-and
seating himself on pile Of dry goods boxes,
laughed pursuing policeman to scorn.-
While so occupied law abiding citizen
pushed over the pile Of boxes, and the thief
fell within the confines of Tennessee and in
to the arms of tho waiting and watching min
ion of the law. Women VINO prefer to have
their children born in ono or the other state
often live on ono side of Main street, and
cross over just before tho coming event.
There nre several instances in which expect,
tant mothers have been little too late, and
thus children designed for Virginia have
been born on Tennessee soil, while predes>
tined Tcnnesseeans have clearly missed their
destiny by being enrolled in the census OF
Virginia. a number Of mature Bristolites
are uncertain of their place of birth, having
vainly spent time and money trying to dis
cover beyond doubt whether they are Virgin
ians or Cheyenne Leader, 9Th.

DOES TIE WORLD MOVE ?-Tho Rev
John Jasper. of Virginia, says, ode sun do
move, for in dc lnornin' it shines on dis side
OBJ dc bous, Will in de cbenin, on dat side
OBJ de hous Now, cf he don't move, how
com he dar? ?" Notwithstanding Mr.. JAS
per's logic, we yet believe the aeorM moves.
When MIR. Jasper's ideas constituted the
popular belief, people thought that to die of
small pox or cholera was simply fulfilling one
of natures laws. Now, through vaccination,
smallpox is avcrted while cholera, cholera
morbus, dysentery (fux), aud diarrhGe: are
readily cured by the use of DR.. Picrce's
Compound Extract of Smart Weed. Does
not such evidences tend to prove that "thc
world moves ?" AS an external remedy for
cuts, bruises, sprains. swellings, bites and
stings of insects, the Compound Extract of
Smart~Weed has no equal. Veterinary sur
geons have also employed it with marked
success.
