Messss Editors I'VE were over ia the Old
Dominion few days ago aud In that section
commonly known as the Northern Neck, and
since you doubtless hear but little Of this loeal-
~, have thought that perhaps, a few lines
might not prove un;uteresting 10 you. Wewill
begin by saying that we were landed At most
unreasonable hour 10 the morning on wharfup
q marrow creek, aud after rubbing our eyes for a
while, we're awakened TO ihe fact, that we were
strangers 10 the landi and, on sauntering around
discovered a little shanty rugged out 10 pinch
back style, with dusky old darby lady, who
tnrned out TO be the proprelress ofthis so-ealled
OySer.5aloon In Shs establishment, We found
our only resort ior a MORNINGS meal which,
eaten while perehcd upon dry-goods boz,
pro-ed not altogether unsatisfactory and was
soon stored away when we hooked up our horse
and started across the country, and next found
ourselves on the banks Of the Great wicomico,
locality orgrowing importance to the fishermen
ofthe Chesapeake. Wevisited several ofthe largest
Fish Factories In the vicinity, and were amazed
to find on what large scale the preparations for
the prcscn, season were conducted. One Of these
establishments now IN course OF SohsInSiiVh'
Ne were informed, would not cost less than
from sixty to seventy thousand dollarsand would
employ twelve sets OF fishing gear. Steamers are
now being used instead Of vessels, which great
IL facilitate the catching and handlingoflhe FISH.
They have also ii this new settlement Two Ma
rine Railways, upon which We saw vessels o.
considerable size and not far FROM here was a
bodybuilding establishment, which had already
turned out fourteen sein boats. Small provision
stores are very numerous ali through the country,
and some Of these are quite neat, and one OF the
most striking features Is, thai splrituous liquors
are rarely kept at any Of these places ~ conse-
quence OF which, we saw none of those charac-
tiers who so often frequent the stores on our side
of the river. AMER long drive over sandy
road, and through country giving evidence Of
brighter DAYS long since passed and now lniiao-
tied by rural population with little energy ana
less culture, we finally brought our day sJourney
to an end by driving up to an establishment
known here MS n hotclin the centre ofa very small
and somewhat delapidated village. Weaiighted
and asked for the proprietor, upon which ven
cradle character stepped forward 10 whom we
made known our purpose TO stop, When q rather
loud and noisy bell, attached TO one OF the posts
OF this long narrow fiat building, was sounded,
and soon answered by tall, gawky and thick
Tipped gentleman of color, who dismanted our
horse ard buggy on the spot deposihng th1
harness and other trappings on a . bench IN a

Messrs. Editors Everybody is hard at eosk
in our section and few are seen lettering around
their wonted rendezvous--thc store-the sum
mum bonum Of the rustic idler.
Rain is much needed especially for wheat and
to afford planting season; tobacco plants were
never more plentiful though very few have been
set ont. Corn seeming up badly and much Of
the crop will have to be repanted.
Both railroads are pushing down in this d.

The Washington and Stonewall Society held
public meeting on Friday evening, May Doth
The exercises consisted Of declarations by Messrs.
J. b. Thomas and J. w. CanteT, followed bys
debate the question being which is the greater
passion, foyeor ambition2' Messrs. I. NJ. Car
penter and w w. Sylvester were the champions
d love while the claims Of ambition we're defended
by Messrs. George Lancaster and B. Bunting.
While according all participants praisefo their
enthusiasm in tie discussion, ] think the opin-
ion Of the audience was largely in favor of the
side Of ambition, though no decision was rem
dered. Master George Lancaster deserves espe-
cial mention for the able manner in which he
defended his side. The exercises wereconcluded
by farewell address by r. TT. Barber.

PARTY HARMoNIEs.-The harmony
which is at present raging between
Conkling and Garfield has lis counter
part 10 this State in the "Graternal emu
lation" which exists between Gov.
Hamilton and his following on the one
part and the Ring forces on the other.
The late speech OF His Excellency in
Baltimore, though mild-mannered and
decorous, and mainly impersonal Is
calculated, whether so intended or not,
10 keep alive and blow this sort Of broth
ly regard and feeling TO still winter
heat. However disguised by profess
nons Of the public good, the true inward
ness OF present antagonisms in our par
ty is the control Of the Board Of Public
Works, with all that this implies. We
censure neither the Governor for Striv-
ing to obtain this control nor the Ring
for attempting TO hold on it. But the
question arises, if follower of German
should be nominated for Comptroller,
or should be defeated Of a nomination
by follower Of Hamilton, what are we
all going TO do abou' Il? And this is the
true peril OF the situation. Will the
nominee receive a united democratic
support or Will the present harmony
continue to exist This issue the party is
calle Wpon to look true in the face, and
it is far better, in our judgment, for il TO
look il in the face before than after the
nomination. We hope for the best, but
whether the best or worst betde the party
the plain duty ofhonest democrats, how
ever they may differ as to the best man
for Comptroller, is to follow the flag

rather novel 10 us. Next in order came the am
nouncement Of supper, most welcome sound TO
hungry mortals, who had, ere this, pictured a
board spread with all the delicacics Of q Village
Inn, bat alasl we were doomed TO disappoint-
ment We were over and over again invited
BY our unsophistcated little old landady to help
ourselves to anything and everything, and this
eeerytbing consisted of cold bacon, dried bis
cults and sailed ale-wife, the latter SO salt that
we were almost deprived OF our sense Of taste.
There was a little variation, however, for ut
breakfast we we're served TO hard boiled eggs,
which took us back to the days when we were
children and used 10 raise Mocking Birds. Our
first impulse was TO geek other quarters, but
little inquiry made as sensible OF the fact that
this was the best and most fashionable resort in
town, so we resigned ourselves to our fate and
passed several days here, In which time, howey-
err, our spirits were little Ifghtened, for we had
the pleasure Of seeing some of Virgnias fairest
daughters, some Of whom appeared quite capti-
yating and we could not help but wonder If
these fair and delicate creatures had been reared
on such fare | will now no longer impose
