Book of the ROYAL Blue for July.

The July number of the Book of the
Royal Blue, which published regularly
every month by the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad, is especially interesting. 1t has
been the custom to devote the July num-
Der every year to stories of the Civil
War; and the present number contains a
graphic description of the battle of
Antictam, illustrated by photographs
taken shortly after the battle, as well as
photos of more recent date. Particu-
larry remarkable is the photograph, used
as il frOntispicce, of President Lincoln
interviewing General Mcclellan at An
tietam, i'll October, 1862, and the Burn
side Bridge, showing an army train
crossing over it, These photographs
were loaned and published by permission
of the War Department. An accurate
description is given of the position of the
Union forces i'll the battle, i'll accordance
with reports of General Mcclellan, while
the graphic description of the closing
scene at Burnside Bridge is quoted from
war correspondent who was present at
the time. An official map published by
the Government enables the reader to
follow the battle closely.
The movement of troops to and from
the battle of Antietam greatly affected
the lines of the Baltimore and Ohio rail
road, which We're then constantly in II
state of decentralization from the con-
tinued fighting i'll its territory.
The number also contains an interest
ing war romance of Virginia, entitled
"a WOmanly Woman il poem by DIR.
Thos. Calvcr, of Washington, on THE
March of the Gallant 9th Corps and
another poem by the same author, en-
titled TOO Soon They Die"

A Surprise Gathering,

An esteemed correspondent sends in
the following report Of an interesting
affair;
Last Tuesday evening the Ladies Aid
Society of Salem Reformed Church rendered
Mrs. l.. Dieckmann a surprise at the home Of
Mrs. John FRESHMAN, Grant street.
The event. a complete success in every re-
spect, was intended as farewell gathering
previous to Mrs. DIS departure for Huntsville
Mo, at the close of this week also to give
evidence of the high esteem in which she is
held by the members of Salem Reformed
church further, to express the appreciation
of her services as the wife of a former faithful
and popular and now deceased pastor, and as
an individual member of the church.
The popular Arion Quintette furnished ex-
Cellent music for the occasion.
The pastor of the congregation, Rev. G. A.
Hauser, spoke III behalf Of Mrs. DIS friends,
giving expression to the feelings ofthose pres
ent in a way which the occasion demanded.
Refreshments were served, and amid min
gled feelings.of joy and regret the company
diSbanded.
In the departure of Mrs. ID. Frostburg loses
one of her nobest and truest women, one to
whom the highest interest Of the town and
its citizens are very near, and Salem Reform
ed Church one of its most unselsh and active
workers.
