The Sunday school excursion over the Han.
over & Gettysburg, Baltimore K Hanover and
Western Nd. railroads to Druid Hill Park and
Baltimore, on Saturday last, was most pleas
ant and satisfactory affair and grand success
financially. No accidents, delays or mishaps
occurred and oil enjoyed the trip. The ex'
curionis,s numbered about 800, including the
Manchester Silver Cornet Band in their new
uniforms, and filed eleven coaches to their
utmost capacity. Arriving at Baltimore, the
exeursionists marched to Grove No. 3, Druid
Hill Park, where they were joined by the IN
FAINT department of Woodberry mission school.
Here prayer was offered by Rev. J. d. Jones'

made by Rev. j. Q. Order, after which the
assemblage was dismissed to enjoy the day
and place as suited their taste.
AT $50 p. IN. the excursion train moved

No excursion Of the season has been more
enjoyable than that Of the Western MARYLAND

about 1900 persons. Arriving IN Baltimore
the party, headed by the agent and police.
man aud two bands OF music, marched in line
across the city 10 the steamers Keyport aud
Chester. Two other bands Of rnusie and
large number Of the excursionists took differ.
ent routes. Tho steamers pulled out Of the
harbor amid the music of the bands and the
huzzahs Of the merry crowd, and the run
down the palapseo, up the Bay and into the
Sassafras river was delightful indeed. The
day was all that could be desired-a fine air
stirring and rather pleasant.
The run TO st. Demands n distance Of
about forty-one miles, was made in two hours
and half, the landing being made at l2l
o'clock. The lines were scarcely fastened
before the excursionists began to leap out
upon the pier, aud a search for the ''Groye"
and dancing pavilion was eagerly made.
Sallies forth in every direction failed to dis.
close any shady spot, with neatly kept grounds,
swings, benches, pavilion, &c, yet upon the
river bank there was sufficient shade for all
practical purposes. The hunt for the grove,
however, was not without its reward, for upon
ascending the bill, peach orchards, filled with
luscious fruit, were everywhere to be seen.
No proprietors we're present To invite the yisi
tors in, but the generous hospitality of the
Eastern Shore being remembered, ceremony
was waived, and all helped themselves tC
their satisfaction. The earliest variety--Be
atrice-had nearly all been shipped, and the
other varieties were scarcely ripe enough
yet there was enough Of the Beatrice left L
satisfy ALL
The day was spent in boating, Grabbing
fishing, bathing, dancing upon the pier, an,
excursions hack into the country. Upon tn
beach are tome ten OF twelve bath rooms witt
suits for hire, and the riyer in front was liyel
with festive bathers until the whistle blew 4
call in the exeursionists.
About 81 clock the gang-planks wer
drawn Ia, aud both steamers headed for Bal
/ timore, having lively race for about tw
miles, the Keyport finally pushing ahead an
arriving in Baltimore two miles 10 advance q

race was over, those on the Chester entere
into the merry dance, which was kept up uu
/ I'll the harbor was reached, the last steps bein
taken TO the sweet strains of "Home Again,

At Hillen station the several bands Unio

hour, each band being applauded after playin
Ii would be difficult to tell which made Il
best music, all playing well. Mr. MeCaule
an Eb player in the Union Bridge ban,
needs special mention for some well-executt
triple tonguing, which was greatly appreciate
and admired by the listeners, and hearti
applauded.
The exeursionists left Baltimore about
O'Clock, and had pleasant and safe TT
home.
