Arthur b. Cropley, Esq, has built a fine
poultry yard at the Seven Locks, where he
mas raised over 900 chickens this year, and
all OF improved stock. He has gone to much
expense and trouble. No two kinds are

the sesqui-centennial of Maryland's metrop-

Their banner was as handsome as any in

Mr.. Richard L. Cropley is building store
at Seven Locks. He has number of hands
employed at his brick yards, and generally
some trouble was experienced in getting
provision for them and in building the store
he intends to avoid any further trouble on
this point. Many thousand bricks are sent
to Georgetown every week from his yards.
Having an improved machine for making
brick without tempering the clay, he is ena-
bled to manufacture $4,000 per day ready to
set and burn, thus saving much expense
lie has also many brick made by hand.

On Sunday, Oct. 10th, Thomas Hill, the
"level walker" discovered a leak on Log
Wall Level that, had he not found in time,
would have been disastrous to the boating
interests as well as to the canal company.
The water was passing out of the canal at
Its bottom where wall over forty feet high
is built, and four miles of water would have
passed out at this place, making wash-out
10 such an extent that, no doubt, the boating
would have been brought to an abrupt
close for the balance Of the season. Mr..
Hill, on making the discovery summoned
Boss Il. Il. ricketts, and his hands who, bv
Monday, repaired the damage without any
stoppage to the boating. Experience will
tell.

those delivered on Saturday

credit upon the lineage to which he belongs.
Mr.. p. was followed by Mr.. Beall, also of

speech, concluding with brilliant perora-
ton, wherein he lauded the Democratic party
and arraigned Radicalsm with scathing con-
demnation. 1t is well that these young men
came amongst us.
Lastly, but by no means least, came Mr.

Counting UP Results.-The Washing.


ton Post of Monday last says that the an
nual meeting Of the stockholders of the
Washington Grove camp-meeting was held
last evening at Foundry church. The an
nual report was presented and read by the
president, Maj. Morgan. 1t stated that the
total receipts for the year from all sources
were $2,921 AZ; expenditures, $1,543 90 ;
balance in the hands of the treasurer, ST.
37S IS. There are still remaining some I'M
paid bills, which will consume most of the
balance. There were erected during the
year fourteen new cattages, making a total
of thirty now on the grounds. The i'm
proyement noted is the establishment of
thorough system of sewerage The report
stated that the attendance was large and
orderly, and that there was but little trouble
from persons violating the law. The num-
Der of converts is stated to be twenty, but
the fruit Of this meeting cannot be seen at
once The report calls attention to the i'm
portance of separating the spiritual and
temporal interests, and that the presiding
elder should be relieved from the unpleas-
ant task of collecting money or announcing
collections, keeping order, or urging the
people to attend the meetings. This should
be done by those who have charge of the
meeting. 1t is further recommended that
the rent for tent sites be abolished, and
what is known as preparation of the ground;
also, some change in the manner of dispos-
ing of cottage sites when parties propose to
build. Many persons would doubtless build
if some arrangement could be made about
ground rent. To build and purchase a lot
is more than can be done if they have the
option of purchase on the present terms, i.
g., ground rent at So per cottage site per
annum. The total number of structures at
the camp of this year was 1850; total average
population 912. The report was adopted.
The annual election ofthe board of directors
resulted in the reelection of the old board.
The executive committee remains the same
with the exception of Messrs. II. II. Linger,
Robert Cohen and Joseph F. Birch, who arc
new members.
