Ctimo-iiy. One of the most singular vegetable natural curiosities to be seen in this section of the country can be witnessed growing at Sharp's ltldge, May berry twp., this county, where the public road passes over the ltldge from Hlg Itoaring Creek. It is two pine trees, each about sixteen to eighteen inches in diameter, standing several feet distant from each other, but connected by a branch about fifteen feet from the ground. This branch is as thick as an ordinary man's body and at either end, where It. connects with the tiers, has a bulging growth, around, making it impossible to tell from which tree the branch originally sprung. Many surmises have licen niaile how the trees became so compactly united, a pair of regular vegetable Siaine.se twins, but no person in the neigh. borliood can remember far back enough to throw light on the subject, those of our cl'.ieiis who have the leisure, should take a ride to the locality mi l examine this natural curiosity, as it will repay them for tiie jaunt, Daaeille Taldligtneer.

It will be found of interest. Gentlemen of llie Jury: 'I he parties ivlng agreed that the title to the land de scribed In the writ is out of the common wealth and was vested In John llelwig on the fifteenth of November, 187M, when he conveyed to the plaintiff, and the defendant lalming by a sale of the land for taxes, the question before the court is whether the de was valid, and transferred the title to the purchaser. William H, Abbott. In regard to that, I Instruct you that the assessment was so uncertain and vague that no title passed by the treasurer's sale. In order to divest the title ot the owner by a lale for taxes, the laud must be described in some manner by which ll could lie Identi fied and located. Where It is dctcrlbcd lu no other way than by the name of the owner, as lu this ease, no adioluers being given, nor any other description snlllclent to Inform the owner or any one else that the specllle properly Is to be sold for taxes, the sale goes for nothing. 'I'he only description of the land here is the name of John llelwig as owner, and under llie words "lots or parts of lots" llie llgure 1. This designates nothing, no paillciilar lot was not such a description lu the assessment and return by the collector as authorized a sale of the laud lu question by Iho treasurer! and I therefore instruct you that the plaintiff, the vendee ot John Helwig, Is entitled to recover. This ruling may necessitate a change of practice lu rrgaid tolheassefsuientof seated land for taxes. In fact, the legislature has recently provided that hereafter there must be entered in the ollice of the commission. ersa full description of such property. (The late art ran, however, hivriit etleet upon this case.) Without reu'd to this legislative pro. vision, lu order to mike a valid sale of seated laud, it should lie properly assessed, and, lu case no personal property can be found upon which to levy for tip) tixn, the land must bo returned by the collector, describing It with as much certainty as a sheriff should dei-crlbe lands In a levy an I ii'lvertNoiiiiiit for sate. Nothing of th Is kind having been done in this case, 1 Instruct you it, up m Up' whole evidence, your verdict should hi' for th plaintiff, the vendee of John llelwig, for iho land described lu the wilt. MkssISS. ElUTOIts. Having dosed my winter's work and settled down at home again, 1 shall try to drop yon an "oeeai lonal," Informing your many readers of the doings in this beautiful valley. There are few places that are known to the writer that have more ntlrnc lions in the Spring and Summer seasons than Stillwater and the surrounding country. The scenery Is picturesque and grand. No more lovely stream than the beautiful Fish. ing creek ever rippled through any valley, or by any mountain side, and ceituliiiy a more Industrious, sober, hospitable, well- behuvid people can't be found, as you veiy well know. All we need now .to complete this country, and put It among the very best, Is a railroad with its attending Im provements, and that, we are well assured, will soon be among Die things that are. .Messrs. Conner and .Mc Henry report suc cessfully every point, most of the land holders granting a release for the road, and subscribing liberally in the way of stock. Only a very fe w have refused to release, and public sentiment will yet, I trust, bring them to see the meanness of their action In trying to llll their own pockets at the ex pene of public improvement. The boys have considerable sport at the expense of Messrs. Conner and McHeury as thev are travelling through the county, as on their approach they begin to Imitate a locomotive whistle, and erv down brakes itc. Hoys are smart ! Our roads are now In a very bad condi tion owing to Hie heavy rains and the immense amount of teaming done. T. II. Edgar's dam recently received con- hideruble damage by the water washing around one end of it; but he lias it repaired again, and his planing mill is humming away quite lively. He is also making some improvements In the way of building. The manufacturing of.maple sugar is now going on to some extent. You should come up when they "sugar oil." It is a sweet time they have. The Stillwater and Zaliner schools closed last week. The young idea can now shoot for awhile without trail Ing. Fishing will soon be in order, but where, oh, where are thethh? Query s Is there any fish law for Columbia county? If so who Is to enforce it might be In order. Elder C. W. Cooper, of Millville, and the writer's joint labors, In protracted meetings this winter, resulted lu upwards of seventy baptisms, and a good Interest at each point. I). M. KisiKii, ANOIIIEK l.or. The Homing mills of Hon. E. J. McHenry, at this place must be doing a rushing busi ness, judging from the many wagons loaded with grain constantly going there. The public school of this place closed on Saturday, the 18th lust, with a spellin school lu the evening, which was one of the best ever held at this place ; being rop resented by leading scholars from the schools of Sugarloaf, Henton, and Fisblngcreek townships. The spelling was conducted on the baseball system. After about twelve hundred words had been spelled in the usual manner, it was decided to spell down. Twenty-six contestants look the tloor, and alter all the knotty and dillicult contents of Swlnton's Word Hook had been exhausted (1. 11. Drescher of Stillwater, and Y illiam Sluirnless of Orangeville still occupied the tloor, whereupon the teacher In charge re sorted to various miscellaneous and technical words, but without effect, as they were evi dently determined to hold the Moor. It was pronounced a draw game, and the two contestants were dismissed. The Stillwater II pieces Fancy Stripe Dress Trimmings at I. W. Ilnrlinan's.

The usual predictions of a short peach crop have somehow been forgotten this year, There were such prophecies last November or December, but they were palpably pteiuature. A Delaware paper even de- clares that In that State and on the Penin sula the chances are of an abundant supply, adding that most of the risks are past. No 1 diibt there is time yet to ruin these tint anticipations, but this year's peach crop will probably far surpass last year's, which was very ..niall, though It may not equal the ex traordinary one of 1880.
