Mr.. EDITOR AS The Hhie has gained

drop you an account of the progress Of the
Philadelphia and Baltimore Central Railroad,
which has of late, caused so great a sensation
in this county, as well as i'll some parts Of
Pennsylvania.
The road is now under contract, as you,
and most of your readers are aware, in Pa,
from point on the West Chester road called
Grubb's Bridge, to Browns Pottery, a station

f. ofthc Rising Sun. The amount of CAPT

the last named point TO the Susquehanna river
through Cccil-has been already taken,
with the exception of about "a 500, which
will doubtless soon be made up, when the
road will be Immediately placed under con-
tract, and the grading to the river be COM
pleted this summer. Every obstacle has
been placed in the way of the construction
of the present road which the soulless monop-

cxcrtions were made in the Pa. Legislature
in order TO defeat charter for the Central

present weather may improve the water and
bring with it the much desired products of
Northern Pennsylvania and New York.
In consequence of the cold weather nothing
has been done by fisherman Of the Susque-

THE RAILROAD WAR.-This new Central

financial abity of our people: tits, also, max.

PENS and paper are called INTO rcquisiton as
well as picks, spades and carts, and the
newspaper is pressed in to serve as the field
for the operations of the disputants. The

who prefer it, can but admit articles Ell both
sides, scnS that its particular friends and
supporters are found divided on this question

who writes on the first page will prove
Troublesome, we think, to our respected cor

"Octoraro' whose article is found on this
page writes in severe mood; he hiss right
to choose his own way of treating the subject
and while others will think it doubtful he
we suppose, thinks he is on the right track
for his railroad.
From New York paper we copy part Of
an article on the railroads from that city to
