A flowing Curiosity.

Some correspondent with matlle-
NAUTICAL mind has taken the time and
pains to compile for the Oxford Press the
following ingenious chain of spring
movings which will occur i'll the section
of county of which "Vinegar Hip is the
central point.

Swisi1er farm near Rowlandville and
move to Enoch McCul1ough's tenant
house, near Liberty Grove. He will farm
for Mr.. Mccullough the coming season.

birthplace and take charge of the Swisher
farm. Will Kearney moved on Thursday
to Stephen J. Reynolds farm, near Har-
risville. Mr.. Kearney has been farming
the Nesbitt place, Familiarity known as
"Stony Batter" for some seven years,
and as he is a genial, whole souled fellow,
as we'll as good farmer, we are sorry to
lose him from the neighborhood. Samuel

where he spent the days of his early
manhood. Andrew Wiley will move into
Mr.. McCardell's cottage below Mt. Pleas
ant Ellwood Montgomery will remove

vacated by Mr. Montgomery. Reese T.
Mcdowell will occupy his new residence,
the stone house at Mt. Pleasant, from
which Mr. Foster doth remove-but here
the chain is broken, your correspondent
being unable to learn who will occupy the
house which Mr. Mcdowell will vacate at
Rowlandyille and so on ad infnitum.
But here goes new link Jacob Dunlap
will move from the Gallagher farm, near
Liberty Cove, to one ofCol. Hogg's farms;
Jacob Wayne will also move into the
tenant house on the same farm and assist
Mr.. Dunlap i'll the conduct of the farm.
