From REIsTERsTowN, 4TH DIsTRICT.-The Cold
Snap-Railrodd Prospects-TAe High School
Lectures, Gc.-Since Monday morning we have
felt rather blue. This cold snap will no doubt do
much damage to the fruit.
1t is now pretty certain that the railroad from
Hanover, Pa, will form junction with the w.
NJ. R. X. at the ReisterstOwn Station. This road
will be direct trunk line from Harrisburg to Bal
timore, and will be of considerable importance to
our little city.
Something particularly worthy of notice. in our
place, is the growing interest on the part of our
citizens in behalf of the lectures delivered in the
hall of the High school. The 4th lecture in the
series was delivered last night Monday, by Rev.
F. A. Chick. His subject was ''The Word of God
in Nature" and was handled with marked ability
and gave general satisfaction. He paid his re-
spects to skeptics and men of like ilk, who have
no more brain than they ought to have. The
word in nature when rightly interpreted never
comes in conflict with the word of Revelation.
Each may interpret the other. There must be
laws to govern the mental and moral being as well
as physical life world of mere chance without
law or order, would be a miserable failure. The
food of one day might be poison the next. We
might have abundance one day and none at all
for weeks-no certainty in anything. If the
world has laws different from Revelation, they do
not appear as such from the works of nature
There is as much evidence for unity of design, of
harmony, benevolence goodness and intelligence
in Gods works as in His word.
"The undevOut astronomer is mad"
These lectures tend to a higher degree of cul-
ture in social circles and inspire some enthusiasm
among the young in the acquisition of knowledge.

FROM WESTERN RIM VALLEY, STH DIsTRIcT.-
The "Gdrden Spof-FlomiShing Society," De-
l notice that correspondents are writing to your
highly appreciated paper from nearly every sec
ton of the county except dear old Western Run
Valley, the garden spot of Baltimore county, and
hereafter propose to let your readers know what
transpires in this favored section.
The crops in this valley are looking exceedingly
well and the tillers of the soil anticipate boun-
tiful harvest.
But while cutivating the soil we do not
neglect the cultivation of the mind and for this pur
pose we have organized literary association
which meets in the basement of BOsley's Centen-
NAL church, the use of which was kindly loaned
by the Trustees, who themselves are deeply inter
ested in the cause of education.
The officers of the association arc-president,
A. w. EnsOr; vice president Thos. 0. Matthews
secretary, NJ 0Hara; treasurer, Robert Lloyd ;
curatOrs, Misses Eva and Salle A. Ensor and J.
T. Wainwright; marshals, John B. Ensor and
George Stevenson.
The association already has an excellent library
for the use of the members and it is the intention
to improve it in few weeks by the addition of
quite a number of new books. There are on the
roll at this time the names of forty-fye members.
The last meeting, on Monday evening, proved to
be very interesting one. The following was the
order of exercises; Singing by the association
essay by Edward Ensor, subject, "Women !" sec
lection by Miss Willie Fowble, sabbath Bells :.
essay by Miss Molle Bond, subject, 'What consti-

then followed, which was participated in by a
goodly number and which afforded much amuse-

New BRIDGE.-The Ellicott City Times of last
week says ''The new bridge which has just been
completed, over the PatapscO river at Leicester
was visited and examined on Thursday last by
the Commissioners of Howard and Baltimore
counties, who pronounce it an excellent and sub
stantial piece of workmanship. 1t is an improv-
ed arch and wire suspension bridge, with span
of one hundred and forty feet-buit mostly OF
iron, and will last twenty years or more, as the
Commissioners think. The arches placed in
heavy cast iron shoes, resting on the abutments
each arch is formed of two or more pieces, made
from crooked trees, and well fastened together
with iron. The bridge was built by G. S. Cole
