lust the Thing.

A few weeks ago, we published an ac-
count of the invention by Capt. BENZ. Daw-
son, of this district, of movable cowpen or
grazing reel. Saturday last, we visited Mr..
John Fawcett's shop and took good look
at specimen ready for use. Four arms re-
volve around an upright post. A platform
built on runners, so as to be easily moved,
sustains the upright. In the platform are
two boxes to hold water, salt, &c. Iron
rods with sliding ring attached are fasten-
ed ON the under side Of the arms, enabling
cattle to Craze the length of their halters or
to come to the boxes. The slightest push
will cause the arms to revolve. The arms
can be lowered for sheep or elevated for
cows or horses, and gates can be swung in-
closing sheep and protecting them from
dogs. Any length of arm desired can be
made. The total cost of the reel will moi, it
is thought, exceed twenty dollars. Some of
the advantages Of the invention are, that it
permits cattle to be turned into clover or
grass field, Restraints them to fixed area
and concentrates their droppings. BY nov
ing the reel. field can be gradually top
dressed. The invention doubles the manu-
rial value of cattle by keeping them in a
fixed place and preventing them from stray
ing in the woods. Farmers who have seen
the machine, say that it fills long felt want
and several have already testified their be-
lief in its usefulness by ordering one for their
farms. Wehope that every st. Mary's county
farmer will buy one, for we believe that it is
useful invention and viii accomplish all
that is claimed for it. We are informed by
Dan'l q. Hammett, Esqr., Capt. Dawson's
attorney, that patent will soon be granted.

the Court House, they always won in these

All is quiet along the lines this week. There

Farmers are busy. Corn is coming up bad

Is minus quantity.
The foliage Of the trees Is becoming fully
developed presenting lovely scenes for the ad-

The merchants are purchasing their sum-

count Of the unfavorable spring and poor
crop prospects.
The schools are but sparcely attended owing
chiefly to the busy season and Roseola. Miss
Lizzie Blackstone has resumed teaching in

For we know that you'd bring a Swsst-scent-

The late showers and the few mild days Of
balmy weather have greatly improved the

Of vegetation. Farmers have taken adyan-
