Your correspondent recently paid visit TO
the Rock Springs of Cecil county, Md. The
springs are located some distance from the
village of Rock Springs, and once enjoyed
the reputation of being quite an attraction
like some ladies. The springs are composed
OF seven cups, or pots, some of them almost
perfectly circular scooped or worn in one
rock, that shoot above ground, surrounded
by fresh, green grass, an area of about thirty
live square feet The water, which is at
very small flow at this time, rises in the pots
from assures near the bottom. The rock is
OF very peculiar formation, looking as if when
rocks were made quantity of scraps were
taken and mixed up without any regard to
mineralogical properties.
A Meteor at Chestnut Level
A very large meteor was seen at Chestnut
Level ON the evening of July 18th, at about
$50 p. III. In size ii resembled the full
moon when just rising Its starting place
seemed to be in the zenith, from which il
slowly moved across the sky TO the horizon,
near which il exploded with sound like
distant thunder A kissing noise was heard
while II was in motion. 1t was SO bright
that it illuminated the entire sky first with
green glow, and then with red, as it itself
changed color.

Superiicial Intelligence.

From the Plttsburg Chronicle.
There is something positively ludicrous
i'm the assumption OF many persons of both
sexes in society that they are highly well in
formed because they read all the novels of
any note that come out. OF course TO this in
wolves certain amount of industry, but 1t
does not necessarily involve any intelligent
and critical discrimination, and 1t requires no
great capacity to read given number OF
pages of fiction a large part Of the literary
talk in society consists of reference 10 novels,
and many "A person of genuine native wit
and sound understanding is undervalued be-
cause he or she is not crammed with this fic-
tons lore and glib of speech in relation to 1t.
There is a wide field of reading besides
novels which does require capacity, and
those who are familiar with it are not apt to
have a cart-load of novels, good, bad and in
different, at their tongues end. Properly
considered, acquaintance with novels indl-
Gates nothing one way or the other in the
matter of intellectual status, aud 1t is SUI
premely silly to make such acquaintance a
ground of selfosteem or to disparage those
whose tastes run in different direction.

Physician Ended.
DIR. John l.. Atlee, jr, a son of the eminent
physician and surgeon of the same name,
died Of pulmonary consumption at his home
on East King street, near Lime, on Saturday
afternoon little before four o. ,lock.
Deceased was born in this city on the 2lst
of June $780, After receiving n prelimi-
nary education in the schools in this
city he was entered as student at Yale col
lege, graduating therefrom as a Bachelor OF
Arts in 1919, and subsequently having con-
ferred upon him the degree of Master OF Arts.
On leaving college he at once began the
study OF medicine in tine Office of his father,
and then entered rs a student OF medicine In
the University of Pennsylvania, from which
he graduated in April, 1858. He immediate
ly thereafter began the practice of medicine
in this city, and became one OF the most pop
ular OF our local physicians, and although he
did not attain to the eminence OF his distin-
guished father, he was acknowledged by his
fellow-practitioners to be an accomplished
surgeon and physician, and no man was
more popular among his patients or more
welcome in the sick room than he.
In November 1856, he married Miss Catha-
rine b. Rogers, who survives him, as do also
nine of their eleven children. His eldest
daughter, Mary, is the wife of Mr.. James
Rogers, of Nelson county, Va His eldest

| some years ago. He was also, we believe,
member of the Order of Odd Fellows, of the
| Lancaster Sharpshooters and some other loca
| organizations. He was an expert with thu
| pistol and rifle, and for some years held thu
position Of king of the sharpshooters, besidtI
winning other prizes by his skill as marks

DIR. Atee had been in ill-health for som
time and months ago his friends saw that hi
end was approaching but by mere viii
power he kept upon his feet, and even wen
upon the street until week or two ago, ant
it was not until two days before his deat
that he finally took to his bed. Iii
father Dr. John l.. Atlee was at Sea Cir
n. j., and his brother, ex-Mayor VIM. a
