A glance at the mop cf Pennsylvania,
Delaware and Maryland, shows a half circle,
commeuceuig on the Delaware river and
running through Delaware and Chester coun
ties, in this Statetl until it strike the boun
dary lino between this State and Maryland.
Every geographer knows that this peculiar
eemi-circle lino exists, but few know when
or how it was done.
A writer in the Cecil (Md.) Democrat, who
$ contributing "Events, Incidents, and
Characters" iu the early settlements of thosa
States, gives the fallowing in relation to the
eatabliohmcnt of the half moon liue. lie
says :
A passenger in the cars from E'kton to
Newark rny notice in a Gild to his left,
about a huudrud yards f'm the railroad,
and near a iniplu tree opposite the Yeliuw
House, a cut granite stone, with a smaller
dark one close on the south side of it. This
is the tangent p)int made by the divisional
line between Delaware and Maryland, touch
ing the circle of twelve miles radius drawn
from the bteepie of the Court House at Xew
Castlo.
It is an important point in the history of
Maryland, and is the boundary which set
tled the long controversy between Lord Bal
timore and the heirs of Wiliiam Penn, in
accordance with the decision of Chancellor
Hardwicka and the agreement of the Tro
prietaries. The grant of Lord Baltimore,
which was some fifty years earlier than that
of Penn, was bounded by the Delaware Bay
on the east, and ou the north by the fortieth
degree of north latitude, clearly compre
hending all of what is now called the State
of Delaware, and up the Delaware up to the
City of 1 hilauL'lphu.
Through the whole controversy it is easy
to perceive that Penn had the more influ
ence at Court, and small matters were urged
with effect against, Lord Baltimore. There
was raid to bo a previous grant of ten miles
around New Castle to the Duke of York,
aud tlio words hactiaas iiiculla, hitherto un
cultivated, in the charter of Maryland it was
alleged, could not apply to land which had
been settled by a Christian people, and
there had been a Swedish settlement at Fort
Christiaua. The ten miles around New
Castle were to bo measured by a radius of
twelve miles from New Castle, and the old
purveyors, Archibald McLean, John Lnkius
aud Jonathan Hall, after opening a vUlo,
as they called it, proceeded to measure with
chain the ramus of twelve mde, aud fixed
it at the poiut where the stones, above re
ferred to, now stand. This measure wa3
made ahmt 1760 to 1703. It was deter
mined that tho due west liue from Cape
Heidopen should terminate at the distance
of thirty four miles thieo hundred and nice
perches, and at that point the tangent or
division line between the provinces should
be drawn straight up the peninsula to the
tangent point aforesaid. The land was then
overed with a deuao forest, and after much
labor and expose a vista wasopeued through
the whole distance of some eighty miles.
The parties in controversy entered into an
agrecmeut to refer tho matter to commis
sioners to he appointed by them respectively,
and they recommended that said commis
sioners take to their aid and assistance Chatles
Mawn and Jeremiah Dixon, two English
mathematicians and surveyors, who came
over and brought better instruments, aud pro
ceeded at once to fiuish the survey in accord
ance with the agreement; which thy com
pleted in about four years, and were honor
ably discharged on the 20th of December,
1707. Of tho work of their predecessors,
the running of the line due west from Cape
llea'.opcn to its termination midway between
said Cape and Chesapeake By ; "the tiace
and measurement of, the radius of twelve
miles from New Castlo Court House ; and
the determination of the tangent point, were
accepted as setttled. In their report Mason
and Dixon say, "We computed how far the
triu tangent line would be distant from the
post shown us as the tangent point, and
f nnd it would not pass one iuch to the
westward or the eastward."
The next point which they determined
was the beginniug of the due west line be
tween Maryland and Pennsylvania, which
was to bo on a parallel of latitude fifteen
miles south of the southern boundary of the
city of Philadelphia. Having determined
the southern boundary of the city, they
measured fifteen miles One south, and then
run duo west until they intersected a due
north line from the tangent point aforesaid,
and hero they set up the corner stotio be
tween Maryland and Pennsylvania, and ran
due west tw hundred and thirty-eight miles
to near a path called the Indian war path,
but wore prevented by tho Indiaus from con
tinuing the liue to the end of five degrees
of longitude, as they would not suffer it to
pass westward of the war path.
At the time of fxing these boundaries
there were only Maryland aud Pennsylvania
in the controversy ; the three counties on
the Delaware, New Castle. Kent aud Susmx.
being a part of Pennsylvania ; and accord
ing to the agreement, boundary stones were
prepared In Eng'aud and sent over to be
placed at the distance of a mile from each
other, every fifth stone being a larger size,
and having tho arms of Lord Btltimore on
one side, and those of the Penn family on the
other, and on the intermediate stones the
letter M on the si do next Maryland and P
cu the side next Pennsylvania. The stone
at the northeast corner of Maryland having
been set near a stream of water was washed
down and lost, anJ commissioners were ap
pointed It tie three States, namely: II. G.
S. Key, of Maryland, Joshua P. Evre. of
Pennsylvania, and George Read Riddle, of
JJclaware. to restore the lost boundary, who
called to their assistance Colonel J. D. Gra
ham, United States Topographical Engineer,
to assist in tracing the lines as laid down bv
Mason and D'xon. These parties met en
the ground in 1817, and finding some dis
crepancies in the measures between the boun
daries, Colonel Graham began to have some
doubts about the correct measure cf the ra
dius of twelve miles from the Court House
at New CastV, an 1 having found the statioi s
of the ccast survey at Iron Hill and at Gray's
Hili as a base line in determining by triun
gulation the distanco between the Court
House at New Castle and the tangent stone,
and by the trial said stone was found to be
within two feet and four inches ef the pro
per distance, that is, that it should have been
that much farther west, apd tho old stone
was not disturbed, and the new one placed
on the north sida of it, as it now stands
marked "TANGENT 1849." Then in
order to restore the lost boundary at the
northeast corner of Maryland, the due north
line was run until it intersected a line drawn
due east from the boundaries of Mason and
Dixon line between Maryland and Pennsyl
vania, and on making the excavation for the
new boundary, they found, at the depth of
three feet, a cut stone, unmarked, and of
the same dimensions and quality as the
etones set on the arc of the circle, and had
probably been buried at the base of the one
bearing the arms, when the latter was
placed at the same point by Commissioner
John Ewing, in 1849. Angle of deflection
between the tangent line and tho north line
or chord of arc of boundary, 30 gg' by qj.
onel Graham ; 3 28 by Mason aud Dixon
leag'h of chord 7,743 feet. From the mid
dle of the chord westward to tho periphery
of the circle the distance is given by Mason
and Dixon as 1 chain 7&J links, and the
length of tangent or peninsular line 81 miles
5,108 feet. Distance from tangent point to
northeast corner of Maryland 5 miles 119
feet. The mile stones at McCowan's, Chris
tiana Church and Gibson's, being on a true
meridian line, may he used in determining
the variation of the compass.

SCT LOVENGOOD AT A CaNDY l'CLIJXU
I had a heap of trouble last Christmas,
and I'll tell you bow it happened. De
kin Jones gave a candy pullin', and I got
a etool, as they say in North Carolina,and
over I goes. Sister Poll tind I went to
gether, and when we got to old man Jones
es the house was chuck full. Dog mi
cats ef thare was room to turn round.
Tbar was Suze Ilarkin, she's as bi as a
skinnod horse, and six other Harkinses,
and Summonses, and l'edigrews, and the
schoolmaster and his gal, besides the old
dekin and the dekinees, and enough little
dek "messes to set up half a dozen young
folks in the family bizness.
Well bimeby the pot be:un to bile, and
then the fun begun. We ail ot our p'atcs
ready, and put flour on our hands to keep
the candy from plickin', and then we
pitched into pullin'. Wasn't it fun ? I
never saw such lallin and cuttin' up in all
my born daze.
I made a candy bird for Em Simmons
Her and me expecks to trot in double
harness one of these daze. She made a
candy goose for me.
Then we got throwin' candy balls intu
one another's hair, and a runnm from
one side of the house to tuther, and out
intu the kitchen, till everything upon the
place was all gummed over with candy.
I sot down on a pine bench, and Em
Simmons sot close to me. Suze Ilarkin,
confound her picture, throw'd a candy
ball sock intu one of my ize. I made a
bulge to run after her, and heard some
thing rip. My stars alive! wasn't I pickel-
led ? 1 looked around, and tbar was the
gable end of a bran new pair of bi itches a
eticken to the pine bench. I backed up
again tho wall sorter crawfish liko and
grinned.
"Sul," said sister Poll, "what's the
matter ?'
'Shut up !" sez I.
Sut," says Em, "rnmo away from
that wall ; you'll get all over greasy."
"Let her grease!" sez I, and down I
sat on a washboaidthat was lying across a
tub, feeling worse than an old made at a
weddin'. l'urty soon 1 felt something
hurt, and purty soon it hurt again. Ice
whis I jumped ten feet bi, kicked
over the tub, out flew pld Joneses Chris'
mas turkey, and you ought to seen me
git.
I cut for tall limber now, jumpt ftaked
and ridercd fences, and mashed down
brush like a runaway herikan till I got
home, and went to bed and staid there two
daze.
L.I old Joneses barn burns down rext
winter, and ef I am arrested for it, and ef
anybody peers as a witness agin me, I'll
bust his doggon'd hed ! Them's my sen
timents. There is a man in BridgewVer, Mass ,
who has ben clerk, agent, ard tre.gj e
for a manufacturing company for thirty-six
years ; clerk, agent, and treasurer of an iron
company fr thirty years ; clerk, agent, and
treasurer of a third company for twenty-two
years; and president of another company
twenty-two years. He has never been ab
sent from an annual or directors' meeting of
either cf these companies during his official
connection with them, aod has kept the
records and drawn all the checks of three.
Ma. Fclger, of Detroit, made himself two
spacious wings of rattan, cork and oilskin,
summoned his friends aDd the new.pnpcr re
porters, repaired to the roof of a one aD('-i-half
story houhe, and promised just befors he
commenced to flap that he would telegraph
back from Grand Rapida. lie flapped, but
instead of being wafted upwards and cleav
ing the bloe uir, he landed among some
weeds on his stomach. He explained that,
somehow, he had lost the centre of gravity,
and the audience took that view of it.

Cherry Pectoral,
For Diseases of tho Throat and Lunga,
such aa Coughs, Colds, "Whooping
Cough, Bronchitis, Asthma,
and Consumption.
Among the great
discoveries of modern
science, few are of
more real value to
mankind than this ef
fectual remedy for all
diseases of the Throat
and Luners. A vast
trial of its virtues,
throughout this and
other countries, has
shown that it does
surely and effectually
control them. The testimony of our best citi
zens, of all classes, establishes the fact, that
Cherry Pectoral will and does relieve and
cure the afflicting disorders of the Throat and
Lungs beyond any other medicine. The most
dangerous affections of the Pulmonary Organs
vield to its power; and cases of Consump
tion cured Dy uns preparation, are puimc
ly known, so remarkable as hardly to be be
lieved, were they not proven beyond dispute.
As a remedy it is adequate, on -which the public
may rely for full protection. By curing Coughs,
the forerunners of more serious disease, it saves
unnumbered lives, and an amount of suffering
not to be computed. It challenges trial, and con
vinces the most sceptical. Every family should
keep it on hand as a protection against the early
and unperceived attack of Pulmonary Affections,
which are- easily met at first, but which become
incurable, and too often fatal, if neglected. Ten
der lungs need this defence; and it is unwise to
be without it. As a safeguard to children, amid
the distressing diseases which beset the Throat
and Chest ot childhood, Cherry Pectoral
is invaluable; for, by its timely use, multi
tudes are rescued from premature graves, and
saved to the love and affection centred on them.
It acts speedily and surely against ordinary colds,
securing sound and health-restoring sleep. No
one will suffer troublesome Influenza and pain
ful Bronchitis, when they know how easily
thev can be cured.
Originally the product of long, laborious, and
successful chemical investigation, no cost or toil
is spared in making every bottle i:i the utmost
possible perfection. It may be confidently re
lied upon as possessing all the virtues it has ever
exhibited, and capable of producing cures
memorable as the greatest it has ever effected.
