number is about the same it was before any
changes occurred.
The Church so much referred to by other
chroniclcrs, still continues incompletcd, but
suppose it will be ere long, as [ understand
additional funds have lately been raised. The
cause of this building progressing so slowly
is the fact that the managers adopted very
wisely, the pay as you go principle, and
hence the work has so frequently been dis
continued. When finished, however, the
church will be free from debt, and not bur
dencd with a heavy one as too many fine
churches are.
The Central Rail Road continues the topic
ofabsorbmg interest. A meeting was held here
on Saturday last and speeches were made by

EE.ATON, MAssGzE3i 1850.

TIE !llsrORY CT CEclI. CorNrY.-We con
tinuc this week Joseph SCOTS history Of this
county printed in 1907. Next week we shall
give some farther extracts of a very interest
ing character.
The statement that $50 900 bushels of
wheat have been sold here int single YEA
will surprise our present grain buyers. A
one time canal was cut from near the
bridge up to Gay Street where the carriage
shop of Hall & MaGchbank stands. Along
this canal the granarics were built, and vcs-
sells came along side and We're loaded directly
from them. The market house is gone-tle
torgcs are gone from along the Big Elk and
the nail factory and celebrated woocn manu-
factory from the Little Elk. But these
streams are vastly improved since then, and
huge cotton factories and paper mills occupy
the places Of those manufactures which were
the pride of our fathers and the cause or re-
suit Of their prosperity. There is no longer
manufactory of beaver hats in Elkton, nor
is the Brick Meeting House celebrated now
for its clocks and surveyors compasscs.
Cecil was once filled with nail factories on
a small scale, which, together, supplied the
market with many tons Of nails yearly: once
the -four mills of the Big Elk were the most
celebrated in the Union and lattcrly almost
every house in the northwest corner had its
scrcw.auger shop close by. These pursuits
have fallen OIL and the industry of the people
is directed into other channels.
In this history Port Deposit, Chesapeake
City and North East are not named. Since
that time these thriving and important towns
have sprung into cxistancc. At the last
census the first nearly cqua'!cd Elkton in
population, and the other two far outstrppcd
the older villages. SummerriVe has advanc-
I'd TO be the Rising S"n, and the village Of
Brick Meeting House has crowded away its
formtr name of East Nottingham, which
still, however, retained by the surrounding
ntighborhood. RowlandsyilIc and Cecilton
have since arisen into important villages,
while Warwick aud Charlcstown have re-
maned nearly stationary, but in them, too,
there arc now evident symptoms ofimprovc-
ment. The latter seems to have lost most of
its public common Of 800 acres.
We are at loss to account for the aston
isl.ing decrease in the population of the coun-
ty between 1880 and 1900; during the inter
veling ten years there was falling of in the
free free population Of 3,3O3 and of slaves
l,3Q1 A Strong tide of westward cmigra-
ton swept them off, and we suppose that
having been entirely negligent of their lands
