Act of Assembly on the Subject of Reg
istration of Voters in New Election Dis
trict.-We publish the following from the Ha-
gerstown News, thinking it will afford some in
formation of value to registration officers and
others. The act passed January session, 1854,
reads as follows:
Chapter 271 section l, of the act provides that
whore new district has been established, "it shall
be the duty of officers of registration for such new
district, together with the officer or officers of reg
istration of the district districts out of which
said district may be formed, to cause the
voters living in such new district and already reg
istered therein to be transferred from the book Of
the old districts to new registration book to be
provided for said new district, and the voters 80
transferred shall be stricken from the old books
and noted as transferred to said new district"
We venture upon the following suggestions as
to the to be pursued by the officers of Reg
istraton in the new districts and the old ones out
of which the new ones have been formed:
The registrar of each new district should meet
the registrars of the old districts out of which his
district has been formed, before the first regular
day for registration, and transfer to his book the
names of all qualified voters from the books OF
the old districts who included within the lines
of the new districts, so that on the day of the first
sitting the registrar of the new district may be
enabled to sit in his district for the purpose OF
regular registration as in the other districts. AT
the end of the first sitting he should then post
lists of voters registered by him, including those
who were transferred before the regular sitting, SO
that all persons may be advised of their regisra-
ton and thereby notified to have any error that
may have occurred, corrected. The registrars in
the old district should, at the time of meeting
with the registrar of the new district, strike
from their books those who have been transferred
to the book of the new district, and at the end oil
the first sitting include these names in the list Of
disqualified voters in their respective districts,
as to afford opportunity for the discovery of any
error made in the transfers to the new district.

| Wesley Chapel, 10th District.-The farm
ers in this section of the county are busiy en-
gagged in threshing their grain, and no one seems
| to be disappointed this season, as there are so
many machines moving about through the coun-
| try, the most of them being run by steam and do
ing their work so rapidly. The crop of wheat this
year is really abundant one, many farms yield
| ing from % to so bushels per acre. Mr. Howard
Troyer's crop averaged over % bushels per acre,
although on one and half acres there yield
of sc bushels of white wheat. Mr.. John Almony,
a few miles from here, raised l4S bushels OF the
Georgia variety on three acres of land.
The farmers are anxiously waiting for rain IN
order that the ground may be in condition for fall
blowing. The potato crop, which is now being
dug, will be only about half crop, while the corn
also will be far short of its average yield, unless
there should shortly come refreshing rain.
Mr.. John P. Cuddy, of this place, celebrated
the seventy-fifth anniversary of his birth few
days ago, and it was your correspondents good
pleasure to be present on that occasion. We
found the old gentleman very pleasantly seated
under large walnut tree, whose branches and
foliage make lovely shade. This tree is said to
be the oldest and largest one of the kind In this
whole section of country, and was used as far
back as the early part of this century by Mr..
Martin Fugate as a temporary blacksmith shop,
its thick foliage giving ample shade and protec-
ton while engaged in shoeing horses. Mr.. Cuddy
also used the tree for the same purpose many
years ago, when actively engaged at his trade
While there we learned from Mr.. Cuddy that he
and his estimable wife have been housekeeping
for 50 years, during which time he has buried his
father, mother, two brothers, three sisters, two
children and three grandchildren, and strange to
say not single death has occurred in his house,
which cannot be said of any other house in the
neighborhood, with the exception of one or two
recently built. He has still living two sisters,
two children, ten grandchildren and two great
grandchildren. Mr.. Cuddy is still in ordinary
health with the exception of the loss of the sight
of one eye by cataract and affection of one hip,
the result of fall from his wagon two years ago.
With all this affection he perfectly content
ed, exclaiming that fall things work together for
good.'

A Trip to Long Green.-A citizen of HGvre-
de-Grace having made hurried trip over the
Maryland Central Railroad, communicates what
he saw on the beautiful Long Green Valley, to the
Republican of that town, which we gladly repro
duce: Gin passing over the Maryland Central
Railroad lately, saw no place more worthy Of
note than "Hyde's Station" in Long Green valley.
This station takes its name from our friend, Sam
uel N. Hyde, formerly of Boothby Hill, this
county, whose enterprise has made it one of the
most attractive, as we'll as one among the best
business stations that road. His canning
establishment, at this station, is second to none
in the county, and probably in the State. He
has copious supply of pure water, brought
through q inch galvanized pipe, from grand
spring some half mile distant, and at an eleva-
ton of over 100 feet, consequently he can throw
water over any part of the buildings, by means
of hose. A reservoir of several thousand gal
Ions is erected the top of the main building,
and kept full of water, at all times, when not in
danger of freezing. The many fine houses which
he has built, to accommodate the operatives in
the canning establishment, and on the railroad,
make this very attractive village with the lux
ury of supply of excellent water.
"Mr. Hydes farm, which overlooks the station
and the upper part of the beautiful valley, is one
among the finest and most attractive in this part
of the county, we'll supplied with choice fruit, and
has field of seventy five acres of the finest sugar
corn I have ever seen, much of it being thirteen
feet high, and all very heavily cared. He has
some two hundred acres in sugar corn, planted at
different times, to accommodate his canning sea-
son, all looking exceedingly well.
"Most of the buildings at the station were cree
ted by Mr.. Hyde before he had the advantage Of
a railroad to bring the heavy machinery, brick,
etc., from the city, and consequently were hauled
eighteen miles on horse teams.
3Tomatoes in this section look well, but they
are late, and the quantity planted much less than
last year.
81 would like to give you short sketch of the
fine farms of William B. Michael, Richard A
Barnes, and others, formerly our neighbors in
Hartford, and now in or near the beautiful Long
Green Valley, but my time will not permit, at
present"

The Cow.-A cow that produces only half a
pound of butter per day will cost as much for its
keep as one that produces two pounds. This
difference in herd of fifteen or twenty COWS Is
sufficiently large to make all the difference in a
farmers family between proverty and wealth.
Nothing should be given milch cow that, so far
as quality is concerned, we would not be willing
to eat and drink ourselves. Pastures should be
free from weeds, brush and rank grasses, also
from bitter herbs and low-growing deciduous and
evergreen trees. Despite the attempts of the
agricultural journals to urge the improvement OF
stock, rs per cent of the cattle in this country
are scrubs, and yet there is no investment that
makes a surer return than stock improvements.

If You Have Property to Sell, Advertise
tit is a bad policy to be too close when ad-
vertising valuable property for sale. There are
often large sums of money lost by making the
effort to save few dollars in advertising. The
newspaper, very often, can do more than all other
influences combined, to make custom and effect a
a good sale. The true policy is not to be afraid
to advertise valuable property. An exhibition of
such fear only causes people to think that the
nroperty is not worth much. Advertise in the
newspapers. These advertisements are invaria-
bly, read by those DESTROYS of purchasing 3; they
often bring buyers from distance, who, in many
instances, pay higher prices than would other
wise be received, and which would much more
than nav the cost of the advertisement.

utes. Mrs. Massey was 60 years of age.
