GETTYSBURG R. EXTENSION
Mr. Editor:—On a'recent occasion, I took
the opportunity to speak, of the progress
made by the Railroad connection East from
Gettysburg. Now I propose to say some
thing in regard to its Western extension.
A survey from New Oxford to York and
the Susquehanna river has been surveyed by
Mr. Gitt. His route passes through Ab
bottstown. I understand that Mr. 'Gitt has
been employed to make a survey from New
Oxford to East Perlin, and from that place
on to York. The p3ople of East Berlin and
vicinity are giving the subject their serious
consideration, and
already existing among them—a rivalry be
tween Berlin and Abbottstown. East Ber
t En contends that the passenger and
. freight
business of the Gettysburg road would be
double that of the Abbattatown route. A
bout this I am not so much interested, for
one or the other 'routes will be made, and
when once at the river s then the connection
is made through to New York City.
The Gettysburg Railroad Company having
charter to extend.their road to that point,
and for that purpose to take, use and occupy
forever the unfinished State Railroad, ("Tape
Worm,) which was projected and graded a
bout the years 18367. This privilege was
granted to the company by an 'act passed the
Legislature at the session of 1856. Mr.
Gitt, Civil Engineer, who surveyed the route
between Gettysburg•and Waynesboro', says
that a practicable route across the South
Mountain to Waynesboro' can be had with
a grade not exceeding 80 feet per mile, and
this be the through route west from
New York and Philadelphia.
From Waynesboro' it is not fully deter
mined which way the route will go, though
most likely by way of Hancock, and on reach
ing that point it will only bo separated from
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad by the Po
tomac river. . The connection here b y a
bridge can be easily made. A connection
with the Baltimore and, Ohio Railroad, by
this route. would give all trades along the
line a large interest in the trade coming o
ver that great avenue. It would afford a
through route to Wheeling, and thence a
long the Central Ohio road to many points
not now reached. It would open the new
road to Pittsburg and Counellsville route,„
and give us access to the trade of the Youghis
geoy valley. The Cumberland coal and iron
region, now solely tributary to Baltimore,
would then be accessible to Philadelphia and
New York. The Northwestern Virginia, or
Parkersburg Railroad would be then of as
Much interest to our Northern cities' as to
Baltimore, affording us an approach to the
trade of Western Virginia, which we do not
now enjoy. The progress of this underta
king will derelope other advantages not now
op apparent; but these I have named are suf
ficiently important to direct attention to the
enterprise, and secure for it the good wiiles
end substantial aid of New York, Philadel
phia, and other places of note. There would
then be a through and direct line from New
York to New Orleans.
Mr. Editor, about the time that a survey
was made from Gettysburg to your place, or
perhaps shortly after, a survey was made
from Gettysburg to Chambersburg, using a
bout six miles of the Tape Worm. This
route was surveyed about the time the rail
road survv©y from Chambersburg to Pitts
burg was run, and has siuce been considered
the most feasible in affording natural facili
ties for the construction of a good railroad,
as well as leading in the right direction for
u western extension. The grades, as I un
derstand were lower than any other in cross
tog the mountain. The distance by railroad
from Gettysburg to 'Chambersburg is about
the same distance as it would be from Get
tysbUrg to. Waynesboro', vim 26 miles— hav
ing about 20 miles . to construct on the Cham
homburg route, and only 16 miles on the
Waynesboro' route.
,By this route it was
contemplated to bring the' valuable Broad
Top coalfield in use, which would be 180
titles nearer to the market of Chambersburg,
and much nearer to Gettysburg and . the
Ett‘tern market than the present. Railroads.
Now, Mr. Editor, so various and import
ant are the lincia of through and local busi
ness that will flow to your road, thyt it will
be remunerative, and being a direct line to
.tlie Cumberland Coal fields, in which the
New Yorkers are greatly interested, an 3 as
your line will successfully compete with oth
er routes, that your place and surrounding
country should not delay a day, but work,
and that too in good earnest as though they.
wanted the road, and raise the amount ne-,
teSeary to make Waynesboro" a point, and
you will never regret it. The road from GUt
tysburg will b..extended either to Wayne , .
bore' or Chatobetsbuig, and as youlave the
advantage over others, only do your duty
and you will have a eommunioation*th the
greet west. Your community *knew. what

ken by prominent loynliati in the sontb;:and
are now befog perfected under L116'1446; 'at
leading men in Congress, to bring this- gum
tion to an early decision._, The Finn ..is as
follows: Loyal men, and they only, both
black and white, in the States of Arkansas,
Nort Carolina, Lout a ianw and elsewhere,' have
taken steps toward tie` fOrination dire*
State goireriiii - chtS. These loyal Wien, with ,
out respect to'colati" null shortly issue calls
ld their respective States for State conven
tions, and elect delegates thereto; the. con
ventions so formed will frame State' cOrrSti•
tutions embodying the principles of loyalty,
freedom and equal rights; will pledge them
selves to the payment of the national debt,
the repudiation of the rebel debt, and the
disfranchisement of the rebels. This being
done, they will then proceed to elect Gover
nors, State officers, Repreaentatires and Se
iratorsObe_latter twice de
mand admission to Congress. The ,question
thus being throat upon that body, there is
no doubt of the recognition of the govern
ments so formed, and the admission of the
loyal :members so elected. A number of
true and loyal men of the South have been
here for some days consulting and deciding
upon the best method to be adopted, and hay
n g determined upon the plan presented
above, have left for their homes to carry the
same ioto execution. The, matter has been
kept very quiet up to this time, but as the
movement in most of the States is now well
under way, no harm can, and perhaps muell
good may be done the Union cause by giving
the facts to the public at this time."
TexPERANcE.--,Some-years ago, at a tem
perance meeting, and during the circulation
of the pledge, the speaker relates the follow
ing fact:
An intemperate man was on bis death-bed
Fie sent for a professor of religion, and said
to, him, "Do you 'remember being at a certain
temperance meeting? I was there. I went
for the purpose of sig ning the pledge.—
When it was eirculatel kept my eye on
you. . I thought you knew more about these
things than I did, and if it were a good thing
you would give your name and join it. But
you did not, and for that reason I did not.
And here I am. lam about' to die, anti I
want yon to prepare to meet be in the judg
ment.
These words went like a dagger to that
professors heart, and they•should pierce the
heart of every one professing godliness who,
stands aloof from the temperance cause. Ev - -
ery one has an influence, and that influence
should be on the side of virtue and piety, on
the side of God and religion. We should
not only avoid the appearance of evil, but do
all the good in our•power. And in this
view we should be mindful of our example
and influence. Actions speak louder than
words. Be right and do right.—American
.3lestenger.
leirThe Soldiers' Orphan Children of the
M'Allesterville and Mount Joy' schools, to
the number of' about two hundred and fifty,
with their teacl3ers, were to have visited
Harrisburg yesterday, for the purpose of tif
fording the members of the Legislature an
opportunity to witness the .progress of their
studies and their condition generally. The
childten were 'expected to be entertained at
the houses of the citizens during their stay
in the city.
•RECORD YOUR DEns.—The attention of
parties holding unrecorded Deeds is directed
to the provisions of the Act of Assembly
which require that—
" All deeds and conveyances for - teal es
tate in this Commonwealth, shall be record
ed in the office for Recording Deeds in the
county where the lands lie,_ within st x
MoNnis after theextentron of such deeds
and conveyance; and every such deed and
conveyance not recorded as aforesaid, shall
be adjudged FRAUDULENT AND VOID
against any subsequent purchaseifor a vain.
able consideration, unless such deeds be te
corded before the recording of the deed - or
conveyance under which such a subsequent
purchaser or Mortgages shall'claim."
— This is a very important notice, - and those
holding unrecorded deeds will see the impor
tance of having them recorded without fur
ther delay.
..There has been within the last. ton
days, a very great decline in all kinds of dry
roods, in the New Yorlmarket-4n some inz
stances 20 and 80 per cent. The market is
very unsettled, with a continual downward
tendency. This is owing to 'a fall in the
price of gold.

'appears that Our Quincy neighbors 'have
qiite recently gone to work in earnest and
have secured for Mr Swinney about sixty
scholars, and will likely, increase.' the num
ber,to,eighty or one hundred. So solicitous
were the people there to secure the services
of Mr. S. that some who have no children to
send to school bename . subscribers: The
school will be opened soon. This speaks well
for Quincy.

we are informed, to 'soon erect a suitable
