'DIE ; R14.14104D R6f.Tf..piq gyPECTROL)Y,
—About the time the subscription kook
for the railroad were "floating?' arpuncl in
this neck the woods, a number of per
sons were down on the enterprise, because
"they were going to lose money," and they
couldn't afford to subscribe. We predict
ed otherwise, as did all other railroad men.
Before the railroad arrived, Mr. John
Shafer purchased fourteen acres of land,
on Red. Bank, a little east of town,
through which the railroad was 'expected
to pass, from Mr. George Lysingel', for
$lOOO. Several days ago Mr. Shafer sold
Latiziz i mx i a i r t;llH Er; tit ;Er:l 4 7 . 0 Vil• V vjvivif
acres to the Kemble Coil and Iron-Com
pany for $5OO cash, and we doubt very
much if he would take $4,000 fZir the re
maining 12.1 acres. We do not pretend
asay_that all properties
. through which
the railroad passes will be enhanced in
value the mine as the above, but we real
ly believe that the advent of the railroad
to our vicinity will greatly benffit every
body. Several years ago we had several
bank smash-ups which engulfed nearly
all the cash money used in business. Had
it not been for the money distributed in
this vicinity, by the building of our rail
road, a large number of persons who haVe
"made the riffle" by the skin of their teeth,
the past two years, would have been sold
but by the Sheriff long ago.—Bcdford in
quirer.
tte—The same or similar happy results
to our town and country would follow the
location of our proposed Branch road.—
We would not only save in freighting per
haps the cost of its grading and bridging
during the first twelve months after the
rolling stock would be 'put on it, but be
vastly benefitted during its construction
by a more free circulation of money and
an increased demand- fOr almost every
thing merchantable. under the present
discouraging crop prospects it would prove
a certain source of relief. But so far as
the accomplishment of anything like a
"forward - movement" -- is — concernedit—is
useless to enlarge on the subject. Our
Committee have had the matter under
consideration for lmost oneyear witlfim
arriving at any conclusion. Of all the
projects which has claimed their atten
tion during this interval there is but one.
in our humble opinion, that admits at all
of feasibilite_ato.A_Alirectline_ma
-ing-connection—with the W. M._l3.—R.-+,•_
A. charter for this is not wanted and only
a few thousand dollars yet to be subscrib-
scribed for right away, grading and bridg
ing, which is as much as will be asked of
- " r " - 31:11 - TIL ElrilVlTn off
us. The i.. _ an oTti ..
having a pecuniary interest in the com
pletion of such a line would, we take for
granted, make provision for the super
structure, either by appropriatir;n, private
subscription, or endorsement of bonds.—
With at least some assurance of aid at
'the proper time we are asked to "lead
off." Should we not then comply by ate
kecuring the addittional stock required
for right of way, grading and bridging, ,
organize and settle upon a line, and then
apply for assurances as to superstructure?
This done—and it might all be accom
plished in a short time by prompt action—
we would certainly be among the victims
of misplaced confidence if assurances sat
isfactory were not, given ou this point.—
Certain citizens have risked the expense
of surveys, charter, etc., will be found
willing, we predict, to venture another
step, the cost of locating the road, which
should have been done long ago. As the
undertaking now rests, we refer to char
ter and temporary line, instead of whole
it is only half done.
AwAnnun.—We learn from the New
vine Star that the contract for grading
the railroad from William's Mill on the
H. &P, Railroad to Petersburg, which
is to be known as the York Springs
Branch, IS as given out on Monday a week
at the conapitny's office in that place. The
road will be eleven miles in length and
shows a commendable spirit of enterprise
on the part of the citizens along the line.
The road points in a direct line for Wash
ington, and the day may not be far dis
tant when it will form a part of a trunk
line from that city to .the North and
North-west. •
The contract for constructing the bed
of the road which includes the mason
work was awarded to Mr, Michael ig'Cabe,
of Frederick, 141 d,
the above notice we have an in
stance of unity of purpose, York Springs
is a town about half the size 'of Waynes
boro',-surrounded, if we are rightly in
formed, with a rather inferior quality of
farming land. A few months since its
citizens conceived the idea of a railroad
connection with the H. & P. Road, and
already have commenced work on a line
eleven miles long. Is this not a little
humiliating to our more wealthy and
populous town and neighborhood, when
it is known that not eleven but six or
six and a half miles will give us an easy
connection with the . IV. M. R. R., with
—as we are reliably informed—responsi
ble parties ready to engage in tie work ?
113Er.Fcar of punishment has but little
influence in deterring men from great
.crimes. Between this and July Ist, elev
en murderers are to be executkd in the
United States, while several others are a
waiting trial. One day society will learn
that the only ellixtual way to prevent be
ing preyed upon by criminals is to ensure
correct trainity , to its youth. That a child
rightly Instructed will not depart from
the path of ;•cetitude in old age, is as true
now as it was in Solomon's time. It is
a. fact too little regarded, that it is next
to impossible to reform confirmed crimi
nals. The refomation must be begun
- with its children.

es of "dead beads" than those ;trim reqeiyo

don't support one or more of them Ab
sence of newspapers is as bad a sign for a
place, in a business point of view, as ab-'
sence of churches . is in morals, or school
houses in education. n every town t ere
are live go ahead business men, - who ad
vertise liberally. These men support the
paper, and thereby do_more to build up
the place and make it prosperous, and
draw trade there, than all other influences
combined. Therefore the merchant, or the
business man, who comes into the place
and takes the benefit of that prosperity,
without contributing in the least to sus
tain it, is nothing more nor less than a
"dead head" on the rest of t'.3e business
men. However this may be tal:en, wheth

PREPARIN'G FOR CAMP.—The Oakville
Enterprise says : "The grounds of the
Cumberland Valley Camp Meeting asso

suming a camp like appearance. Gangs
of workmen are daily engaged in beauti
fying and improving the place.. The tents
are being roofed and whitewashed, the
rubbish cleared off, shade trees planted,
and the whole camp undergoing improve
ment. It is evidently the intention of the
association to make this a model camp
ground, and how they will succeed will
be decided in a few years. The avenue
from the railroad to the camp has been
thickly lined with shade trees and the
large rocks removed, which will make it
as pleasant a walk as can be desired. The
pipes which were laid last year for the
purpose of forcing water into camp have
been taken *and the water will now be
hauled into the cisterns, which are being
dug at each corner of the camp. Visitors
to this great camp the coming season will
notice and commend many improvements
which we have not space to mention."

His life with the great business world

B. Foster, Vice President of the Pennsyl-
