Journalistic.
Our bright and enterta lining contemporary
the Prince Georges Enquirer, announces in its
last issue that it has completed the first year
of its existence under the change Of name and
manag enent, and it congratulate itself on the
liberal support that has teen given to it, and
assures Us that it is now a solid and per-
N nept basis. Under the present manage cement,
the Enquirer his sustained the enviable re-
pulaiion that had been acquired for the Prince
Georgian, its immediate predecessor, by its
founder Mr.. Thomas J Turner. We congrat-
ulate the new management upon the good luck
that has attended their venture in the journa-
listic field and trust that their we'll observed
prosperity will continue to reward their Efforts
in behalf of the good people Of Prince Georges
and the welfare OF the Democratic party.
The Beautiful SNOW.
The first snow of the season visited us on
last Thursday night. The fall, however, wa>
very light and did not iinger long under the
sun of Friday. On Saturday night, however.
much longer fall came and continued unceas-
ingly during Sunday. So that by night the
ground was beautifully covered with its immac-
ulate mantle That night 6ne misty rain
fell which freezing in the snow rendered travel
ing very diff ut on Christmas eve and made
it very disagre.ble for lh Sc who had Christ
mas shop, ling to do on that day. Some few
sleighs were out on Christmas, in and around
the will ge and if the oung people who were
in them enjoyed themselves, the poor horses had
a hard time dragging the vehicles through the
or ckiog GOV, ring. Christmas was altogether
q dark aud lowering day and, with the excep-
ton of few harlgerirs who yentnred to try the
sleighing, was spent quietly or o.herwise in
doors. The long looked for snow, which is
sup, osed to lend such a cheerful aspect TO
Christmastiit was rather more disagreeable
th n otherwise, though the old fogies had their
white Chistmas and We hope will enjoy all the
beneficial results which it is supposed TO bring
PeIspnil.

Potomac Isle.

One or the most pleasant and en-
Joyaole plcnics that has ever been
neiu ae Potomac Isle, was that of
MISS Ida Henry's music class. and
her friends and patrons. Miss Ida
usuaily closes the year with musi
ca commencement. This year, she
determined that, instead Of having
announcer commencement, she would
take her scholars on pleasant pie
me. 50, on Friday, June 29th, a
splendid crowd OF friends, scholars
and aequaintances proceeded to the
Z. V. X. Il. depot, boarded the train
and were soon speeding toward the
distant Falling Waters. Arriving
there, then came the pleasant ride
down the classic, picturesque and
historic Potomac, with the beautiful
Isle looming up in the distance. To
say one S feelings are not quickened
whilst gazing on all the beauty on
every hand would be al untruth.
The forenoon was spent in fishing
and having a good time generally.
1he Eeavy rain storm spoiled some
what the evening enjoyments. But
stlll merrlment reigned supreme un,
til the time for leaving the nice lit
tie river paradise, then the picnicers
started up the river in the boat mer,
rlly watching the sunset as it kissed
the broad river and smiled ON the
delighted observers. After short
ride IN the cars came the confusion
at the depot, the separation for home
ana now, pleasant recollections of
the day spent at Potomac Isle.
Miss Henry, by her kind, pleasant
and industrious habits, deserves
much credit for the advances made
by her scholars in all the branches
OF music. Never firing, always
willing to help them over the most
difficult pieces of musical lore, she
has not only the good wishes of her
scholars, but also their admiration,
respect and highest esteem. Unit
ing the many essentials of the teach,
er, with a deep and profound knowl-
edge OF the science she teaches, she
has richly and deservedly won a
name OF high prominence. Her
scholars appreciate her kindness in
thus closing the year with SO proper
an ending, and, while the warm and |
oppressive months of summer makes
1t necessary that her duties cease for
a short time,. still they shall think
ever OF her Kindness to them. We |
wish her a pleasant and refreshing
vacation. UNo.

RedingfOn Grove.

On Friday, June 20, the teachers,
scholars and many friends of the
Second Ward School, w. A. Pitzer,
Principal, picniced at Bedington
Grove. The morning was beautiful
and the merry laughter of the child
rem and the contented smiles of their
parents added pleasure to the party.
A pleasant ride over the G. v. r..
r., landed the pleasure seekers at
Bennington; from whence, after a
short walk, the picnicers arrived at
the Grove. 1t is a beautiful place,
a diminutive "garden of Eden. y
The ground is carpeted with soft,
short grass ; trees,in whose branches
the birds carroll their roundelays all
the live-long day, rear their stately
heads heavenward, and dot the liv-
Ing sward little brook, laughing
as it dances by, and gurgling over
its pebbly bottom, wind it's course
through the entire length of the
grove, and nature, in all her beauty,
stalks forth everywhere. The child
rem had studied hard all year long,
and the sport which they engaged
in, refreshed their weary natures,
and awoke their love for the beauti-
full. Swings were erected, games of
endless kinds played and the croquet
wires fastened in position. (Austin
Rodrick, as usual, sustained his po
sition as champion of croquet, much
to the discontinue Of Mr.. Goulden,
of the Herald) Next came dinner,
which was very abundently supplied
and done justice to by all present;
while all was happiness. The scene
changed big clouds rose in the west
aud the thunder roared, indicative
of an approaching storm. The larg-
er portion of the picnicers hurried to
the station, escaping the rain-while
a few caught slight duckjng. The
8 O'Clock train brought the party to
old Martinsburg once more where,
after bidding each other fond good
bys, and wishing for one another
happy vacations ana pleasant past
times, both teachers aud scholars
separated. The picnicers number
ed some 1853 persons.
Mr.. Pitzer is a young man --one
who loves his vocation and his pu-
pills. He thoroughly understands
how to teach. OF steady and tenn
perate habits of a long and watch
full experience /; and of deep and pro-
found learning, none is more capa-
bic, more trustworth or more fitting
than is he. Since his advent as the
Principal of the Second Ward school
it has advanced in remarkable and
noticeable manner. He has as his
assistants three of as industrious,
intelligent and earnest teachers as
can be found in any school in the
State. "Giving honor to whom
honor is due,n / think / can truth
fully say that both the examination
and picnic of this School were splen-
did successes. PATRON.

"NoW don't you talk to me about
butts Charlie, because l won't have
it. I shall sit down here, and you
can 90 and tell your mother not to
wait-not to watt" the man repeat
ed, raising his voice with the stupid
anger of intoxication.
Still, in spite of threats and refus-
ais, the child persisted in pleading
that bis father should go home but
his words only seemed to strength
en- the mans obstinacy, and all the
boy could do was to get his father to
turn aside from the high road into
field close by, when the man threw
himself at full length upon the grass
somewhat under the shade of the
hedge, and in a few minutes he was
sleeping heavily, whilst the child
sat down at little distance, with a
strange kind of unchildish patience
on his features, to wait until his faith
er should awake. Poor little Charley!
he knew too well how useless any at
tempt on his part to rouse him from
that sort of sleep would be.
Rather more than half an hour
had passed in this dreary waiting,
and Charley was beginning TO find
all his small sources of amusement
fail him. He had watched large
bee that kept lowering over the con-
volvulus blossoms in the hedge, and
wondered if he had not nearly fin

snail out of harms way, and had
been tempted to chase beautiful
painted butterfly that fitted past him
but he began at last to lose his in
terest in bees and butterflies, for it
was now tea time, and Charlie was
growing terribly hungry. Still he
did not Think of DESERVING his post,
for no one but the child himself
knew how often he had kept his tip
sy father off the country road when
carts or carriages were coming along
nor how he had managed to guide
him in safety over the narrow and
big bridge that led across the river to
their cottage.
So Charlie sat there quietly, al
though he was growing more tired
and hungry every moment, until the
sound of a vehicle at little dis,
lance attracted his attention, the
sound gradually growing nearer and
sounding more distinct, until a
young gentleman jumped over the
stile at the end of the field and APP
