Rocky Ridge Letter.

Our little place is generally very quiet,
but it sometimes gets into trouble as well as
other towns We have had quite lawsuit
last week, between John and Joshua Whit
more and Jacob Miller resulting in favor of
the Whitmores.
Mrs Dif1endal wife of VIM. Ditfendal is
visiting her father Mr. Geo. W. Barrick.
Messrs Shook and Routzahn have rented
house in Hagerstown intending to engage
in the livery business. We think VIM.
Routzahn will not better himself much by
the change. The way things look at pres
ent therc'll be great many changes made the
coming spring either for the better or worse.
On Sunday last there was preaching at
the German Baptist Church. There was a
blind man read the II Chapter of st. Johns
Gospel and read it as perfect as | ever heard
it read Elder Utts preached an able ser
mon followed by Elder Tomas Kolb who al
so gave us some wholesome doctrine.
Elder George A. Hoover has been on
the sick list for some time, but we are glad
to learn that he is getting much better. He
hrs built a fine mill the past season and Will
soon lc ready to take in wheat.

Ed. Clarion: -
Having known you for many years, and
being regular reader of your valuable pa
per THE Clarion, thought perhaps few
lines from your native county, would inter
est your readers. ! therefore, submit II few
notes, if in your judgement you think them
worthy,
And first and principly would say that
"rhc Clarion is highly commcndable and
is spicy paper Its editor is not afraid to
eap0se frauds, Rings and monopolies; advo-
Gates justice and equity to all. That's right
Charlie
Stand for the right, proclaim it loud,
Thou'lt find an answering tone
In honest hearts, and then no more
BE doomed to stand alone,
Stand for the right, and with clean hands
Exalt the truth on high
Thoult find warm sympathizing hearts
Among the passers by.
Wearc too prone to ask what course would
best advance our own interests rather than
that which duty bids us pursuc On, how adj
mirablc in man who takes stand for the
right and truth. In fact we are all more or
less guilty of seltishness, but it is time for
us to break away from its influence and
think of others. The poor are pinng in
want, let us give them too some assistance
even if it is no more than the "Widow' s
Mite" There are Spirits which thirst for a
gentle word or cheering smile; let us be
stow them freely Many vending their way
along the rugged path of life are yearning
for helping hand; let us extend it cordially
with the resolve that we will no longer live
for ourselves alone, but for the good of 9TH
ers also-lf we carry out these principles
we shall have JUSTICE.

A number of our citizens ayailed them
selves of the low rate Of fare on Saturday
last and accompanied the Westminster eX-
cursionists to the great Luray Cave. They
came back enchanted with the trip but one
of their number, a son of Mr.. Chas. Eyler of
Eyler's Valley, found out something about
the snap game the authorities of the town of
Luray are wont to practice upon strangers.
1t appears that the young man had come
words with one of the guardians of the Gu
riositics of the cave and which guardian he
afterwards met on the streets of the town.
Said guardian undertook to stone young
Eylcr, who promptly thrashcd him. Nothing
was done until the train was about TO start
when he was taken in custody by two town
constables and as it would cost very much
more to remain over and contest the case,
the demand of five dollars was paid. The
company that owns the cave had better buy
the town too, SO that they could secure the
execution of decent corporation laws; this
Is not to our own personal knowledge, the
first piece of downright imnosition practisCd
