Shover's warehouse,4i miles flint WaY
neiboro' and 1 frotaFikeiville, in Frank
lin cOunty,. Peiteeit 'Mud' freight .
from Franklin, Bedford and Hundington
counties, Pa., will now seek this route to
ge to Baltimore, and lii - "ririe - irs — ihip their
produce to the same market. The pros
pects for the W. M. R. R. and the mer
chants and traders of • Baltimore now o
pens attspiciously. •
Waynesboro' is but 80 miles from Bal
timore via the W. M. R. R. while by the
way of Chambersburg and Harrisburg it
is 180 miles to Philadelphia. Travelers
and men of business will always seek the
shortest and cheapest and best route both
for business and pleasure. This .rich re
gion of Pennsylvania disregarding State
lines as mere myths at best, will now
seek the Baltimore market, if the mer
chants of that city are wide awake, and
sell goods on as accommodating terms as
-the merchants and traderi of Philadel
phia.
The merchants of the latter place are
now sending "drummers" out to noti f y
merchants and farmers in Western Md.
and Southern Pennsylvania, that to those
_w_ho_ship_their_goods_on_thp W
and buy in Philadelphia, that they will
pay the freight from the latter place to

'Our friend of the Clarion has some
what overdrawn upon his imagination, as
the counties of Bedford and Huntingdon
are perhaps further • from Waynesboro'-
Station than •Baltimore is, with the North
founts': • • • • herefore not
at all likely that any freight from those
regions would reach this Station, to which
access is had with great difficulty from the
immediate neighborhood West of th e
Mountain. The importance of a Branch
Road to Waynesboro' is therefore as im
portant as it is apparcn..
TAKE TETE PAPER.—SOtrie one hits the
nail squarely on the head when he says,
"what tells us so readily the standard of
a town or county as the a .earance of
its paper? And its youth or its age can
'as well be determined by the observing
as by a personanotice. The enterprise
of its citizens is'depicted by its advertis
ments their liberalit b the looks of the
paper. Some papers show a good, solid,
healthy foundation, plethoric purses, a
well-to-do appearance generally ; others
show a striving to contend with tile grasp
ing thousands around them, trying hard
to wrench out an existence from the close
fisted community around them.
Take your home paper ; it gives you
more news of immediate interest than o
ther papets; it talks for you when other
localities belie you; it stands up for your
rights; you always have a Champion in
your home paper, and those who stand up
for you should certainly be well sustain
ed. Your interests are kindred and e
qual, and you must rise or tall together.
Therefore, it is your interest to support
your home paper; not grudgingly, but in
a liberal spirit; as a pleasure, not as a
disagreeable duty; but as an investment
that will 'amply pay the expenditure."
WELL-KNOWN PHYSICIAN GONE.—
We are pained to announce the death of
Dr. JOHN J. OSUMI, which took place at
his residence in this place on Tuesday
morning last. The Dr. had been subject
for several years to sudden attacks bor
dering upon apoplexy, from which he re
covered, however, and was in the enjoy
ment of his usual health up to Saturday
last, when he was taken suddenly ill,which
was followed with an apoplectic attack on
Monday, causing death.on Tuesday. The
Dr. we believe was a native of our town
and had followed his profession for a per
of forty years or more. As a physi- ,
clan he was widely known and had many
warm friends and admirers, who will la
ment his sudden death.
ODD FELLOWS' SUPPER.-A very sump
tuous Supper was served up to Waynes
boro' Lodge of Independent Odd FelloWs,
at the Bowden House, in this place, on
Tuesday evening last, eighty or ninety
persons partaking of the good things pre
pared fcr tlioccasion. A course of Oys
ters gone through with, the tables were
re-set and loaded with fowl, cakes and a
profusion of ether delicacies, all of which
are said to have been gotten up in th e
good style for which "Aunt Nancy" is no
ted, the brotherhood enjoying a good time
in general. About twenty-five members
of the Fairfield, Adams county Lodge
were present as guests and partook of the
savory dishes. The procession at IT o'clock
was escorted from the Lodge to the Hotel
by the Waynesboro' Band.

pecially with a tact for the beautiful, to
call and examine his stock, which is a
novelty in nur town, where also are fur

EDtroili readers are doubt
less- '' aware of the organization of. the
"Young Men's Christian. Aisociation'' in
this place. As yet the membership is
not large. Thinking that if , the objects
*ere more generally known many persons
would unite themselves with us in this
work, and therefore . desire to set forth
briefly the following:
. Object-to pro note' evangelical reli
gion among young men" residing in this
town and vicinity. To accomplish this
end it is designed to hold weekly and
monthly prayer meetings and such other
religious exercises as may be found expe
dient. To obtain a room ib which the
members and other young men can meet
every evening for the purpose of social
converse, prayer, reading of books, etc.—
To make it attractive so that young men
may be drawn to it to spend their even
ings and leisure hours, and thuslead them
to abandon the habit of loafing in objec
tionable places.
To the devotional meetings we trust
that the Congregations of the different
churches will continue to give good atten
dance. •
If all good Christians will give this as
sociation their countenance and support
it will doubtless become a means of ef-
acting, mlich goodifft . is community.
Qualifications for membership : Any
man who is a member in good standing
of an Evangelical -ChurchTmay—become
tution and paying in advance one dollar
annually. Any man of good moral char
acter may become an associate member
by the payment of one dollar in the same
manner. Ladies may become members
by the payment of fifty cents annually.
SPECIMENS.—SeveraI fine specimens of
ore taken from an ore bank on the farm
of Mr. A. S. Monn, can be seen at this
office. Mr. M. has been prospecting for
several weeks and will take pleasure in
showing persons who call upon him what
developments he has made. He is anx
ious that - perions interested and those fa
miliar with the different qualities of iron
ore. should call and examine for them
selves. Mr. Moan's lower farm, which
lies near the Blue Rock School House, is
also known to contain great quantities of
valuable ore, but a different quality from
the specimens in our possession. Should
the Harrisburg_and_rotomae Railroal
reach our town over its proposed route,
not only the lands of Mr. Monn, but those
belonging to his neighbors must necessa
rily be enhanced in valuation on ac
count of these mineral deposits.
THIEF ARRESTED.—TweIve bushels of
clover-seed were stolen from the barn of
Mr. Noah Sheely, near Cashtown, this
county, on Saturday night, January 6th.
On Tuesday following, Mr. Sheely, ac-,
companied by several others,went to Frank
lin county, in search of the seed or infor
mation concerning it, and whilst there
learned that a man named Harry White
had been seen to cross the mountain with
a wagon at night under suspicious cir
cumstances. He was accordingly arres
ted, (by Detective Horner, of Fayette
ville,) at his residence, in Greencastle, and
lodged in jail here on Friday evening last,
to await his trial by Court. It is said he
has made some damaging confessions.—
The seed has been recovered, Mr. Sheely
fully identifying the bags containing it.—

..The annual report of the Cumnaer
land Valley Railroad contains the follow
ing :
The Southern Pennsylvania Railroad,
leading from Marion, a point on this road,
to Mount IPeasant in Franklin county a
distance of twenty-five miles, has been
completed and accepted by the Cumber
land Valley Railroad Company under the
terms of the lease, the conditions of which
are stated in our last year's report. This
road, after passing through the richest and
most beautiful part of Franklin county,
reaches the ore mines of the Mount Plea
sant Iron Company, which upon the au
thority of a personal examination of them
by Prof. Lesley, are pronounced to be ex
cellent in quality, most abundant in quan
tity and mined with unequaled facility.
We have thus by these roads, all of which
will be in operation early in the summer,
reached every desirable point for trade
and travel on either side of our valley.—
It is contemplated 1 o extend the Scotland
and Mount Alto Road to Waynesboro',
which, if completed, will secure a most
desirable accommodation to the enterpris
ing manufacturers, as well as farmers in
the vicinity of that place.
ne...A complete set of burglar's tools
was recently found concealed between the
ceiling and roof of the Reformed Church
in Hagerstown.
Rumor has it that an attempt was since
made to fire the Post office in that places
and that the Mayor bad received a writ
ten notice that the town would be fired if
the tools were not returned by a specified
time.
STAGE LrsE.—The traveling public
and other business men will be pleased to

A hundred and fifty men are employed
and ten miles have already been graded.
"The President of the road,- D. V.-Ahl,
seems to be indefatigable in his efforts to has
ten this important work on to completion.
The latest move is-to run :a branch road
to Petersburg, Adams county, the people
of that vicinity having subscribed $50,-
000 to the project. Considerable interest
has also been manifested- in' Franklin
county, and . there is not much doubt that
stock enough will be taken to extend the
road from Cleaversburg to the Potomac.
"The early completion of this , railway
is a matter of, the deepest concern to ev
ery citizen of the county. The develop
ment of the vast iron interests of the
South Mountain region will bring em
ployment to thousands of men, and revive
every
. branch of trade. The prostration
&business in this valley, during the past
year so, has resulted mainly from the
fact that all our dependence is upon agri
culture; and when cro is fail, or • rims are
low, there is a stagnation in every branch
of trade. But line the South Mountain
with smoking furnaces, and the whole as
pect of business will be changed—Work-
- men - w n• - rea y - emp oym - en at goo'
wages, stcre keepers will find sale for
goods at cash, and every branch of me
chanical industry will receive a new im
pulse.
"The new road will be an especial ad
vantage to the villages of Boiling Springs,
u' • dletown Pa . ertown and Clevers-
burg, and indeed will put a new phase
on the whole South Mountain region.—
That its construction is assured beyond
a doubt, it is the duty of every good citi
zen to wish the project well and lend a
helping hand. The new road will he of
no immediate advantage to us of Carlisle
but the question whether it will specially
benefit this or that locality sinks into in
significance in view of the lasting benefit.
it must inevitably confer, upon the county
in general. Success, then, to the Harris
