MEssRs. EDIToRs. BY last weeks issue
of your paper, it appears in an article
signed by Papa" that the audience who
attended the entertainment in Barksdale
school house few evenings since want
ed their money back
Now do not blame Papa" for this, as
no doubt he accepted his information in
good faith /; but this is a decided mis-
take as have conversed with a majority
of the most intelligent persons pres
ent, and from all of these the programme
received praise.
Though we have been informed that
there was one young man present who
was greatly dspleased with the whole
entertainment. His conduct on this &C.
casion, as well as on several others recent
ly, has been the subject of considerable
comment. The entertainment was given
for the benefit of the Sunday School in
this place. The original idea was to have
charged an admission fee of fifteen cents,
but this was abandoned, and a collection
was taken instead. The programme was
two-thirds finished before the collection
was taken, and we think this afforded
the audience ample opportunity to do
nate in accordance with their apprecia-
ton of the same. We have been inform
ed that this dissatisfied persons contri-
button only amounted to one cent and
that he tried to induce those near him
to make offerings correspondingly small
Before we close we would say to this
person. that if he applies either in person
or by letter to the treasurer of said Sun
day School his penny will be cheerfully
returned. Dick.

PORT DEPOSIT.

Port Deposit is in state of uncertain
ty. Their annual visitation of the ice
gorge, makes them undecided to remain
below or as the Scriptures would say, go
up higher. They have been preparing
for week or more to get up and dust,
but the elements seem to favor peaca-
BILE solution, and to pass away into the
bosom of the ocean. Some people go to
see this ice gorge, thinking it is very
gorgeous affair, but if they would just
come here and set on the bank and see
their property being swept they might
murmer that it was a gouge and not a
gorge. Mr.. James A. Davis has suffered
every time there has been freshet, and
has seen thousands of dollars go out like
the snuff of candle He now has his
furniture removed up stairs, and his
daughters piano has been raised up to
the ceiling, and now looks like mahom-
cts coffin floating between Heaven and
earth. Mr.. Davis has lumber yard
here, and is the most respected resident
of Port.

lilkton is the great wool centre Of this
section, in fact this side Of the mills Of
northern New York. To see the inn
mense pi es Of wood about the place,
would lead you to suppose that it must
be a very popular" place. In fact it is
a clean town, and the tripping girls us
they file out of the Ienten church SER
vices on their way home, gives it the APP
pearance Of Il very tidy one. Mr.. Singer
ly in these mills has added an industry
to a place that lacked enterprise, and
now if some other public spirited man
would start an umbrella factory or n
powder mill there the place would be
sure to 90 up. Two of the newspapers

The roads to Chesapeake City are in a
deplorable condition. Mr.. Benz. Sapp, of
Elkton, made trip over there the other
day, and hejolting was such as to shake
the buttons off your great overcoat. One
team with coal must have lost fully half
the load from the way it lay along the
road, and the driver must have been
either intoxicated or color blind if he
did not see the black diamonds as they
dropped from the cart. Perhaps the
man was black, but the owner of the
coal no doubt looked great deal blacker
when he saw his coal and the size of the
ton. Chesapeake is locked upon the icy
embrace of winter, and consequently her
locks are not open for shipping. The
merchants Of the place are not over busy,
but with spring fairly opened they hope
ID do II fair trade. One business house
had the sheriff's notice up, which shows
that they couldn't tide over their affairs
