DURING couple days sojourn at
Berkeley Springs, we stopped at the
Florence House, kept by that prince
of landlords, Major Charles Green.
The Florence House, has been full
and overrun during the season, and
Notwithstanding its crowded condi-

to his guests. 1t is needless to
say anything to the Berkeley people
about the excellent accommodations
afforded at the Florence house, be
cause they all stop there when they
go to Berkeley Springs, and know
all about it.

THE DRoUTu. - The present
drouth has been so long continued
that it is being very seriously consid-
cred. One day last week, the Signal
Service Bureau informs us, not a
single drop of rain fell throughout
the breadth and length Of this vast
country of ours. Such thing was
never before known. There has re-
Gently been some rainfall in some of
the Western States, that will proba-
bly, save the grass. A fall of rain
in this section would serve to cool
the air and prepare the soil for seed
ing, but it could not possibly be of
any benefit to the crops injured by
the drought.
We are informed that the timber
on the mountain sides is dying rap
idly, and that trees are being serious
ly affected in the lower country.
Everybody is hoping and praying for
rain.
