 An addition to Hon. Robbins Battells res. idence is in process of construction, which we understand is to be used as an art gallery Mr. Battell's philanthropic purse is ever open to the temporal, intellectual and aesthetic wants of our town and his numerous munif- cent donations to it's beauty and comfort stand as monuments to his dee p-seated love of mountain girted old Norfolk, and bis liberal public spirit.

 The disagreeable hail and snow storm of last Sunday morning prevented the usual large attendance at the Cong. Church, and for the benefit of those who found it inconvenient to attend, we give the text, found in Hebrews 1st chap, lst and 2d verses: ''God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in times past unto the fathers by the prophets, hath in these last days spoken unto us by his son." Rev. MT. Gleason cited many of the 'sdivers manners" in which God spake unto men, with proofs oftheir divine origin speak. ing to some in dreams, visions, symbols, etc. But after Christ came, there was no need of types and symbols. He completed what the prophets began; He was perfection.

A sorap Of History.

The Baltimore Morning Herald on Monday
made public an interesting scrap OF history, 10
which il showed, "without reference TO inc
Presidential question, that about three.qlar'
ters Of a century ago a majority Of the Mary
land legislature was not ayerse TO having q
President for three terms. In 1907 q move
ment was made in this State TO induce MT;
Jefferson to accept nomination for a thiru
term and Mandatory address was presented
10 that worthy gentleman setting forth the
views and opinions Of his Maryland admirers
Mr.. Jefferson, however, did not see things in
exactly the same light, and he at once nipped
the movement in the bud in the following
memorable language;
That | should lay down my charge at a
proper period is as much duty as to have
borne il faithfully. If some termination to
the services Of the Chief Magistrate be not
fixed by the Constitution, or supplied by prac'
tice, his office, nominally for years, Wlii, IN
fact, become for life: and history shows how
easily that degenerates into an inheritance.
Believing that representative government,
responsible at short periods OF election, IS that
which produces the greatest sum OF happiness
TO mankind, feel it a duty to do no act which
shall essentially impair that principle, and
should unwillingly be the person, who disre'
garding the sound precedent set by an Illus
trious predecessor, should furnish the hrst *.
ample of prolongation beyond the second
term Of office.
Words breathing sounder wisdom or loilier
patriotism never fell from human lips, says
the Bulletin, and we believe they express the
present sentiments Of large majority Of the
people Of Maryland as well as of the Union.
