Railroad at Elktou instead of with the Dela.
ware Road ct either Smyrna, Townsend or Mid.
dletowu. They urge that the road Is essen
TALLY Maryland one, and the interests Of
Maryland are chiefly identified with 1t. Its
support must come from Marylau and its con.
troll ought to remain there. The Democrati,ays:
When we remember that the road from Elk
ton 10 already graded az tar as the Bohemia
hiver, II becomes question whether or not,
on the score Of cheapness, Elktou be not the
most available terminus. From Bohemia Ry.
er to the Sassafras the distance cannot be
much greater, If any, thaa 10 the distance from
Middletown or Townsend or Smyrna. The land
Is equally level and the facilities for construct
ing the road quite as great. But the most i'm
portant feature OF this project, lie the facility
with which the great tide Of travel on the Del
aware Railroad could be turned into Maryland.
branch stem Of three or four miles starting
from the Delaware Railroad, In the neighbor-
hood OF Middletown, and connecting with the
road proposed in the vicinity of Bohemia
Mills, would make the distance from the lower
| counties Of the Eastern Shore, to Baltimore
| about the same, and the route quite as direct
as to Philadelphia. Thus Viewed, the subject
becomes one OF serious consideration whether
| the interest aud the duty Of the people con
| cerned do not combine to make the Eastern
Shore In fact part of Maryland. instead of a
mine of wealth to swell the Golfers Of Penn
| sylvania merchants and capitalists.
A Great Improvement in Steam Boasrs.-Our
| attention was called to the extensive saw mill
| of A. ]. Barrett 4 Co. These gentleman have
| lately introduced two OF Connery's Patent
Steam Boilers in their establishment which
| surpass every thing as yet introduced, 10
I generating steam, which may be seen feom the
| following facts. The mill had torn,erly four
cylinder boilers, ID feet long by "a inches In
diameter, costing not less than $50 or
Sin per day Tor fuel, aud could not keep
mp sufficient supply OF steam 10 run the
mill, and now with two Of the Connery
Patent Boilers, only occupying twelve
square teet base, and 10 feet high, carrying the
steam at 80 pounds pressure per square inch.
This mill IS run at saving Of fifty per cent.
and saves mot less than $40 per day, These
boilers can be soen at any time In full OPP
perstion at the mill, foot OF Sixth street, or at
the mandatory of Megaw 4 Billany, where a
large number are In course OF construction.
Religious There were Sixty -four persons
added to the Central church last Sabbath week
