THE MINERS DARLING BOY.

The MINERS DARLING BOY.
| have boy, he's my only joy,
A better lad you'll not find;
lie is zen years old, say he'll dig more coal
Than any other kid in he mine;
He's trapped in the Hope, creased in the
slope,
tell you the boy is Il lrick,
He's in with the gang, knows all the slang,
And he'll soon be a knight Of the pick.
CHORUS.
lie leaves he house every morning
With his tin cans hanging on his back,
His lamp on his cap, he is the very map
Of miner and nut hard TO crack
When he comes out but can't he spout
What he went through that day
OF the rats he killed and cars he filled,
And the road he helped to lay;
How he put his back to car off the track ;
o, l tell you the boy is awful quick,
He knows all the ropes, his hil hest hope
Is to be boss knight of the pick.
Oh, he can chin of his place coming in
With any other kid of his size;
He can smoke and swear, talk bad air,
Hard bottoms, breasts and phys
He never stops but talks of props,
He has almost got me sick;
Oh, I've had enough of his old "gutf"
Since he's learned to swing the pick.

The imp! ovements made at the
Cumberland post Office have brought
forth enconiums hearty from all
who have inspected them. The lock
boxes are magnificent in design and
catch the eye OF passels.by on the
street. Postmaster johnson has been
unremitting in his endeavors to please
the Cumberland people, and has re-
ceived merited credit from the pat
rons of that Office. The changes made
were attended with great expense,
largely borne by himself, and in
themselves ought to be sufficient to
commend his reappointment as desir-
able all around. He has been be-
sides, as before stated, faithful Of.
fcer, and at this distance from imme-
date interest in the matter, it looks
very much like he ought to succeed
himself.

SOMETHING ABOUT THE OYSTER
1t may not be uninteresting to those
of our readers who like the oyster as
an article of f,od to state the fact that
Mr.. R. HI, Elmunds, who compiled
the valuable statistics for the Census
Bureau Of the oyster interests Of this
State, says "that $6, 245.876 are in
vested in this business in Maryland,
and 81, 1861, 100 in Virginia. In the
two States there are 40,09l persons
engaged directly in the trade, whose
wages and earnings aggregate annu-
ally 5000, 444." A large number OF
vessels and SHIPPING craft of all kinds
and sizes are engaged in it in this
State, and oysters are found in the
Chesapeake from Elk river down to
itq mouth at the capes. There are
thousands of beds of these delicious
bivalves in all the tributaries of the
Bay, and large oyster packing houses
can be found in evary river town on
both the Eastern and Western shor es.
Synepuxent bay, a small il let running
between Worcester county and Ocean
City beach, has a very fine and pal
atable oyster with dark green COW
ering; this color is supposed to orig
mate from the heavy sea- weeds with
which the bay is filled. However,
it does not injure the oyster, as it is
very popular in both Baltimore and
Philadelp hia markets. Another item
connected with our oyster industry
worthy CT note Is the fact that Girls
field, popularity dubbed the "City by
the Sea-" is partly built on oyster
shells cut in the sound. Like ccal TO
Frostburg, Crlsfeld gets it's living
from the oyster traffic, its busy sea-
son being trcm September to April,
OF just the opposite of ours. Of the
bivalves themselves the Cherrystone
(Va.) oysters are rated the best and
the Pccomoke the moet Inferior. The
oysters coming to this market are
about the size and quality of the
middle Chesapeake and have a rich
! favor.
