TAe Maryland Cemsral Rail-



We are gra,itied to learn that the prospects
ofthe Maryland Central Railroad are every
day Frightening. Persistent and we'll direc-
ted efforts are being made to secure the
amount of subscription which the people Of
this county are called upon to furnish and
by continuance of the same it is confidently
expected that the necessary amount will be
subscribed. But While these are more cheer
ing hopes than we have hitherto been war
ranted in indulging, their realization depends.
upon the, hearty cooperation ofall interested. I
In this as in every other undertaking that
is to result in success, there must now be no
deferring or putting of. Prompt action is
what tells
1t is proposed to convene meetings In vari-
Gus sections Of the county, along the line of
the road, for the purpose of making more
thorough canvass in its interest. We can see
no better mode than this, and recommend
its adoption. If such meetings shall be called
and general attendance secured, much good
must result TO the interests of the road. It is
surely not needed at this late day, to adduce
arguments to prove the benefits it will secure
to those owning real estate within convent
ent access to 1t, but yet the more our people
interchange their views upon the subject, the
more, we are convinced, they will be persua-
ded of the necessity for prompt action in the
matter. Subscription books are now open at
the office of Herman Stump, Esq, in Bel
Air, and at the store of P. w. Silver, in OAR
lington.

ceries, spring dry goods, hardware, notions,
and in fact everything pertaining to their

tain the reputation their store has long pos.
sesssed as the place to get choice goods at a
fair price. The entire store-room has been
refitted and painted, and is now one of the
most attractive in Bel Air. The wood work
was done by Jacob E. Bull. and the painting

excel, by Robert E. Sellers.
