SUBSCRIPTION TO fHk susouEHANNA
Rail- ROAD.

1t will be seen by the following pream-
BILE and resolutions that the Town Council
Of the Borough Of Sanbury, at their meet
ing on Monday lass, authorised su5scrip-
ton of five hundred shares TO the stock of
the Susquehahna Rail Road, at $50 per
share, amounting to $4,000. This is a
very liberal subscription for Borough Of
the size of ours, and shows most conclu-
sively that we have full confidence in the
project. The Council also authorised
subscription of S25, 900 10 the Sunbury and
Erie Road, on condition that the road is
commenced at this place within one year.
PROCEEDINGS OF THE TOWN COUNCIL.
AT a meeting of the Burgesses and Council
of the Borough of Sunbury, May nth, 1852,
DR.. D. w. Shindel offered the following Pre-
ambe and Resolutions, which were unani-
mously agreed to
WHEREAS, The construction of Rail Road
from this place TO Bridgeport is matter of
great public importance, and must be highly
conducive 10 the best interest and general
prosperity Of this Borough, and whereas the
sum heretofore subscribed by the Borough to
the stock Of the Susquehanna Rail Road Com
pany, is deemed too small and doubts exist
as to The regularity and efficacy thereof
Therefore
RESOLVED, That in lien OF the subscription
heretofore made, the Chief Burgess Of this
Borough, be and is hereby authorised and
empowered to subscribe on the part of the
Borough, five hundred shares AT fifty dollars
per share, 10 the capital stock Of the Susque-
hanna Rail Road Company, 10 be paid at
such times and places and in such proper
tions and insalments as the directors of said
! Company may require, in pursuance of the
ACT regulating Rail Roads, approved 18th OF
February 1S49 and its several supplements,
And that the said Chief Burgess be and he
is hereby authorized and empowered to per-
form and execute all rights, powers, franchi-
ses and privileges conferred and secured un.
der the provisions of the act entitled, A sup.
plement 10 the &C: incorporating the Susque.
hanna Rail Road Company, passed the cath
day of April 1852, and generally 10 do all
acts and things necessary TO carry out the
true meaning and in,eres, Of this resolution
provided, however that this subscription is
only 10 be binding and is made upon the con-
dition, ,ha, the $500, 900 expected to be rails
ed by The City of Baltimore, be subscribed
as stock TO the said company, either by the
City of Baltimore or some company TO which
said city may loan said money.
On motion of DR.. r. H. Awl,
Resolved, That the Chief Burgess be anc
is hereby authorized to subscribe twenty-five
thousand dollars to the Sunbury and Fri,
Rail Road, provided the said road be mad,
from Sunbury 10 Erie, and provided The saic
Erie company commence the work at Sun
bury within one year.

TERRIBLE ACCIDENT.

A young girl about fourteen years old, a
daughter Of Mrs. Miller, of this place, was
most severely kicked in the face by horse
running loose in the street, belonging 10
Mr. Ray. The child, when taken up was
not expected to live but we learn that it is
now likely TO recover. There is an ordi-
nance against horses Sc, running at large,
and it ought to be strictly enforced or more
accidents will happen.

PROVISIONS.

There seems to be great scarcity Of pro-
visions throughout the whole country
Potatoes and all kinds OF grain excepting
wheat, seem TO be scarce and high. Fresh
meat sells higher than ever known before,
almost equaling city prices. Our butchers
are now asking and getting nine cents per
pound for all good pieces, and as nearly all
the pieces between the horns and the tail,
are included in this category, there is but
little 10 be had below that price. The
butchers say that they have to pay extrava-
CANT prices for cattle. In this dilemma il
is well to have something TO fall back upon.
We, fortunately, laid in supply of most
excellent dried beef from the establishment
of Van Brunt and Fitzgerald, in Water
street, Philadelphia, house that does a
large business in the provision line, and
who are extensively engaged in curing
dried beef. This may be often used as an
excellent substitute for fresh meat, espe-
cially when frizelled and served up with
a cream gravy, and besides il is always ham
dy and easily prepared.
