OBSERVATIONS AND INCIDENTS
An Interesting Letter From Our NsilI
Correspondent.

Neill, Va, May Il.
Confident in the belief that something
else could be more easily raised than to-
matoes, We started on Tuesday for a
trip through WestmOreland county,
most OF which was new to Us. Alter
several stops we were at Colonial Beach
for the night, where we We're cordially
greeted by some Of ourfriends, and later
the gathering at the tea table consisted,
in addition TO the ladies, doctors, com-
mercial men and n solicitor, a general
conversation bringing Us into closer
family relations, and the evening passed
rapidly in agreeable converse with our
host.
At breakfast next morning matters
took a superstitious course, different in
dividual experiences being given, one
stating their aversion to room No. l3,
yet was very much exalted spiritually
from the fact OF their natal occurring on
the 9TH day OF the 7th month and the
7th child etc, and other seyens, and
was encourage, d To continued faith
therein in other ways, aud in answer to
Biblical questions pertaining to witch
craft, etc, to read the Bible more con
stantly and gain the desired information.
The question OF experience in eat killing

member, whose natal day occurred on
the 18th, an event for which they were
no wise responsible, began to cast about
in their mind as to whether any OF
their misfOrtunes were attributable to
this fact, and fearful lest it should create
anxiety among the Others TO even be
present with such an one.
Resuming our journey next morning
we raised some mud, and after several
pleasant calls reached Oak Grove, by
name, il not by nature. Approaching
the head Of navigation on Machodox
Creek large ricks OF nice sawed pine
wood were seen and two large vessels
loading for market, the location being
ideal from the fact it was carried aboard,
so close We're boats to the shore and
level land.
Some good farming lands are in this
vicinity, clover and wheat showing well.
Thence on 10 Potomac Mills we went
through a section of woodland several
miles square, which was burned over
five years ago, destroying much valuable
timber. many dead pines still standing.
From the Mills onward Is some very
ordinary land, and it was especially
noticeable in these belts farming was
