VALUABLE RELICS

In the antique and relic depart
ment of the fair of the Burlington
County Agricultural Society of 1880,
Dutch mantel tile from the Colonial
building on High street, and now
to be levelled to the ground, attract
ed from its age and quaint scene,
marked attention A few days since
a friend suggested to Mr.. Silpath, a
SON Of the former owner of the prop
erty, now deceased, careful exam
ination Of the part of the free place
from which the tile mentioned above
was taken. Save bare spot where
the one in question was inserted, the
surface was covered with wall paper.
After much soaking with water and
vigorous rubbing, some 8 or 10 per-
feet tiles were brought to light, and
as distinct as the day they left the
potters hands. AS pottery dates
from very early period, no accurate
calculation can be made Of the age of
these tiles, which are relics from a
building full 200 years old. The old
Dutch Windmill is very prominent
object on some Of them and castles of
note appear on others. We commend
these exceedingly rare vestiges of a
by-gone age to antiquarians aud relic
seekers In addition to their own
respective value the antecedents of
the building imbues them with his
toric associations of most interesting
character.

oRAzED BY LIQUOR.

During Thursday last, tramp and
woman who called herself his wife
were lettering around our city. They
finally wandered down to the town
wharf, and became SO disorderly that
Chief Police Shisler was sent for.
From the sequel it would appear that
the Chief had cautioned them as to
their behavior, for, as reported to us
BY an eyewitness, the tramp upon the
Chief appearing in sight ran to the
edge of the wharf and deliberately
plunged overheard. When he arose
to the surface, he laid perfectly
still on his back as if determined to
commit suicide, and which brother
tramp present said he intended doing.
The sousing however, and perhaps
the actual fear Of drowning soon
brought his legs and arms into Wig
orous action and he struck out for
the wharf. Being no swimmer he
probably would have drowned but for
some fishermen who were passing at
the time, rescuing him. His wife
who was sober, went into Mysteries at
her husbands act, and to prevent the
poor mortal crazed with liquor from
doing himself or others harm, the
Chief very wisely sent both to the
lookup for disorderly conduct. We
believe they shortly made their exit
from town

ga STRAIGHT ROAD.v

Mr.. EDITOR: My Rock Hill friends seem
to think that I am mistaken in regard to Sc
curing good road and straight one, from
Ebenezer to Rock Hill, without great deal
of work and heavy expense 10 the county !;
but I feel that am correct. I know that
a straight road cannot be made by leaving
the Landsford road near the berry" house,
and thereby save half mile. I don't think
three hundred yards could besaved, while the
road would be no better than the one We laid
of: Those opposed to the route we adopted
say the expense is not matter for consdera-
ton ; that whatever it may be, the county
will pay it. If the county is willing to incur
the expense, why did not the County Com.
missioners accept S. NJ. Fewells propositions
He made four propositions to the County
Commissioners, one of which was a route free
of charge The other three propositions were
reasonable considering all the circumstances,
as he was perfectly willing for the public to
have a good road, provided it could be OBJ
tanned without too great pecuniary sacrifice
to himself.
4flt was absolutely necessary to locate the
road so as to please all the people in Ebene-
zer township, why didn't they ask the County
Commissioners to lay off the road according
to their notion, and then have the road com.
missioners, (Messrs. Byers, Barnett and my
self) to stake it off and send up our report,
saying we had done the best we could between
man and man.
If Ebenezer had it all in their own hands,
| dare say, from what have heard since the
road was lad off, that they would not all agree
about the location of the road. AS to the
people of Rock Hill, don't see why they
are so much more interested about the Ebe-
nezer people than about any other section of
the county.
In bad weather we all have to travel over
bad roads, and should not be surprised to
hear of the Ebenezer people crossing the
"Miller" branch soon if it does not rain be-
fore long, for there is not much mud there
now, and the road hasn't been worked recently
either. As to the certainty of the Court set.
ting our decision aside, they may be as badly
mistaken on that point as was the editor of
the Lancaster Ledger when he took,a holly
hook blossom for cotton bloom.
