The advantages of such road to the city, and
the property in the vicinity of the road must be
apparent to all conversant with its situation. There
is but little doubt that similar road will be
built, connecting this road with Rockville and
Brookville--the last in the midst of a fine agri-
cultural country; thus opening direct and easy
route from Montgomery and the upper part OF
Anne Arundel counties to this city for the trans
portation Of the products of that and the surround
ing country.
Plank Roads are being most extensively con-
structed throug hout the country, and have every
tphere proved profitable investments paying large
dividends 10 the stockholders, besides improving
the value of property near them, and greatly in
creasng the trade in the places through which
they pass.
A considerable portion of the stock has already
been subscribed.

der of the old certificates. The new road will pro-

than five per cent the fret year after il is finished
and the dividends will steadily increase

GUIDE POSTS ON THE PLAINs.-Mr. Kendall, in
letter to the New Orleans Picayne, closes with
the following suggestion:
eve might close this sketch here but that we
desire to make a suggestion 10 the State autbori-
ties of Missouri. A lamentable want Of guide
boards pointing the poor traveller 10 the road he
should take at every fork and four corners he may
como to- is felt throughout the West and South
west Many and many mile is lost for want of
some friendly fnger-post at every turn; and,
while we are about il, might recommend TO
every Legislature, South and West OF tho Allegha-
mics, that a liberal appropriation in this behalf
would be of incalculablo advantage TO every
stranger who might come within their midst. Time
and again, while on the road from Council Bluffs
to st. Joseph, were we completely lost and turned
from the right road for the want Of guide board;
and on one night in particular was the entire party
compelled to encamp among the vile weeds by the
roadside-and II was rainy and most disa-
greeable night at that-because we had missed the
right thoroughfare. Now, were the Legislature of
Missouri In particular, and were that of every
western and southwestern State in general, TO
make liberal appropriations for guide boards no
matter how rudely and cheaply painted, an meal
oulable deal of out of. the way travel might be
saved, 20 cay nothing of time lost in wandering
abCu over roads which appear to lead to any place
save that which the ignorant traveller is seeking
Besides all this, deal OF that particular species of
invectve which the author Of tho celebrated tract
entitled the Swcarer's Prayer would have deemed
superfuous If not sinful, would be entirely dis
pensed with. We trust that our suggestions may
be at least received favorably by ali and singular
who may read this sketch TO the end"

BALTIMORE, November l2--5 p. IN.
The new steam-propeller Palmetto, the first of a
regular line Of steam propeers to run between
Baltimore and Charleston, made trial trip to-
day, and her machinery worked most admirably.
She is of about eight hundred tons, and will take
her position on the line in few weeks, with fine
prospects of heavy business.
The escape from Jail at Philadelphia of two inn
portant witnesses in the Christana outrage trials
has excited much feeling in Baltimore county, es
pecially among the friends and neighbors of the
late Mr.. Gorsuch, and a movement is on foot to
endeavor 10 retake them. That they have been
spirited away through the friends of the parties
accused and awaiting trial, no doubt is enter
tanned. They had also been gone two days before
the ailor reported their escape, thus giving them
full time to get out of the way.
The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company gave
notice to-day that and after the fret day of De-
cember their road will be completed from Bau
more to Cheat river, when pass, myers can take a
direct line of stages to Parkersburg, and thence in
steamboats, to Cincinnati, reaching that point in
about two days and three or four hours, at cost
of about fourteen dollars. There now five thou
river and Wheeling, and there is no doubt that it
will be completed by the lot Of January, 1852. 1t
will be opened to Cheat river on the lst of Deem
Der, and to Tygart's valley, on the Northwestern
turnpike, on the lst of April next.
The revenue of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad,
