I'm Il H,eriInMS Position.

Several weeks ago DR., Albert Hape, of
Georgia, formerly of Unientown, this county,
and c. l.. Quimby, of New York, left Tallulah
Hotel, among the mountains in Northern
Georgia, for the purpose of exploring Tallulah
Falls At Ocean Falls Mr.. Quimby declined
to proceed further on so perilous a mission,
but DIR. Hape proceeded with the understand
ing that he would join his friend at or near
the grand chasm.' The Doctor failed to
meet Mr.. Quimby, and the fears of the latter
were aroused as to the explorers safety.
Search was made for him without success, and
it was given up until daylight next morning.
Next day DR.. Hape was seen on rock l5O
feet above the river bed, but he could neither
proceed nor recede. From the top of the
cliff known as the ''Devil's Pulpit 800 feet
high, the Doctor could be seen clinging to the
almost perpendicular wall Five men, taking
ropes, worked their way down until they got
within fifty feet of him, and then threw him
the rope. The Doctor caught the rope, and
without moment hesitation made fast one
end of the rope to stump, and quickly de-
scended to the bottom, where he found the
rest of the party of rescuers in boat ready
to receive him with open arms. Glad enough
he was at his deliverance from his night OF
darkness, exposure and peril.

C.rrn,,,on sta,ion Items..

Carrollton still lives, moves and has Its
being A new frame house near the station
will be completed in few weeks, if good
health should favor the builders. The house
is the property of Mr.. Joseph Evans, who ex-
poets to occupy it the first of April. 9th
er parties are talking of building soon.
Mr.. Amos Arbaugh has purchased lot OF
Mr.. Elias Houck, and purposes building, and
is now quarrying stone for that purpose
''Nickum," an enterprising colored man, has
bought lot from Mr.. Houck, and has the ex-
cavation for the cellar already completed
Parties are negotiating for lot near the sta
ton for manufacturing purposes, and an en-
terprising young man has an idea OF embark
ing in the blacksmith business.
The mill is yet unsold, though we understand
negotiations of private character are still
pending. 1t is strange that its advantages as
q manufacturing power and site have been so
completely overlooked. Not very large
amount of capital, with energy, could easily
make the investment paying one to the pur-
chaser of this property. We do not know a
small country place anywhere that offers the
inducements to investment OF capital that TINS
does. If anyone doubts it We think we can
convince them in a short time of the truthful
ness of the assertion Atrial must satisfy one
that it will result in success.
There is no point on the Western Maryland
Railroad that has more natural advantages
than this, and they should be developed at
once. A school is needed, and we are sure a
visit of the Commissioners to this point will
be followed with that result.
The season is backward, and farmers have
not been able to do such work as they usually
do atthis time. We have experienced harder
winters, more extremely cold weather, but we
think none that furnished as much cloudy
weather. Ls-t E-.

Fire Department will also turn out, and the

as it is possible to make it. Some three or four
bands of music have accepted invitations to
Join in the festivities of the day. .ts
The committee in charge have requested us
to extend an invitation to the entire people
of the county to aid in the demonstration.
They would be glad to have delegations from
every town and district in the county to JOIN
the carnival, and to have every brass band in
the county to participate in the parade
Charles E. Bowers, Westminster, will answer
all questions and give any details required.
We should like this demonstration to be
grand success, and it can be made SO if the
people undertake it in earnest. Let the
people in the towns and districts begin at
once. and Westminster will do her share.

Valuable and Prolific Brood Mare.

Mr.. D. E. Buckley, of Middleburg, this
county, is the owner of brood mare, seven
teen years old this spring, that few days ago
gave birth to her thirteenth colt in thirteen
Consecutive years. She brought her first colt
in the spring of 1870, and has brought colt
every spring since. She has been blind in
both eyes since she was five years old, yet
there is not a blind eye to be found in any of
her colts. She is very careful with them when
they are quite young, and has raised everyone
of them without scratch or scar. Her fifth
foal was a mule colt, which Mr.. Buckley sold
at three months old for seventy-fve dollars.
Mr.. Buckley has sold nine of her colts for
the gross sum of 81, 225, and has four of her
best colts in his stable. She has alternated
regularly every year in the sex of her colts,
she having produced an equal number of each
sex. She was purchased in the spring of 1870
of Mr.. Ohio Pearre, of Unionville, Frederick
county, for 500. We would be pleased 5I to to
her. Mr. Buckley says he challenges the coun-
ty to surpass her. He says he is now going
to raise a team of mules from her.
