DISCUSSING A POST OFFICE SITE.

There is considerable talk in New Brunswick, n
j.. over the removal of the Post Office. Post Office
Inspector Sharp decided short time ago that To-
cation in the Masonic Hall was the most desirable
one. The hall is the railroad station and Rut-
gers College in the uptown district. The Post Office
is in the downtown dist let, where most of the
stores and factories are. When the downtown men
heard of tue inspectors decision they were angry
and held indignation meeting. The Post Office
Department sent Inspector Sharp back TO recon
slider the matter. Yesterday, in the Office Of Wood
bridge Strong & Sons he was Informed that the
Masonic Hall was incOnvenent, too small, i'll
ventilated, liable TO be burned at any time and af
torded no accommodation for the public After
listening for hour TO these speeches
the Inspector went TO Howard McS1eIry's
office, uptown, and heard OTatOry 10
the effect that the State Bank building where the
downtown men want the post office, twas incOn-
venient, i'll ventilated, too small with no accommo-
datiOns for the public, and certain TO be burned.
At both places Mr.. Sharp seemed impressed with
what was said, and assured each party that he APP
preclated the trouble being taken TO ill him with
information and promised 10 give careful consider
gtloD TO all that said.

BROAD LANE.

Broad Lane is the name OF thriv-
ing little village, situated in North
America in the eastern part of the
United States in the State of West
Virginia and in the northern part of
Berkeley Co., eleven miles north of
the county seat on the Williamsport
turn pike. The village contains a
store, blacksmith shop, wagon-inaker
shop, school-house, church, sawmill,
stave factory and two pedagogues,
and many other interesting buildings
and notable personages. Hence, as
this place las not been spoken of for
some time through the columns of
your valued paper, we have come to
the conclusion to venture few lines
for insertion, that the many readers of
THE HERALD may know where we
are and how we are prospecting. But
should these lines be so unlucky as to
fall, unnoticed by the Ed, into the
waste basket, we shall endeavor to
console ourselves by sinking into OBJ
livion and quietude.
The early sowed wheat is looking
remarkably well, Notwithstanding
the severe drouth. Good water is
quite luxury in this village, some
of our neighbors haul water from
Lemen's ferry, distance of one and
a half miles.
Cabbage and turnips are 80 scarce in
this village that the writer is led to
believe that there is not enough to
supply his herbivorous appetite for
one week-so you can easily conjec-
ture that we have had severe
drouth.
The early planting OF corn received
no perceptible injury from the drouth,
consequently the crop will compare
favorably with that of other parts of
the county.
Rev. Kershner, of Martinsburg, will
preach at Harmony Church next SUM-
day tomorrow at ten a. m. and
at this place at seven p. M, and every
two weeks during the year thereafter
at the above named places and time.
Prayer meeting at this place every
Wednesday evening; Sunday school
at 8 p. m. VEGA.
