The Route of the Maryland Central.

The Maryland Central Railroads proposed route is
about forty miles long. Its entire length is through
of the RICHEST and most beautiful portions of Mary
land every one familiar with the lovely Dulaney's,
Long Green and Deer Creek Valleys will admit 1t
from Baltimore to the Susquehanna river at point
the mouth of Deer Greek, and connects with the
Philadelphia and Baltimore Central and the Columbia
and Port Deposit Railroads The richness and variety
of the soil through which it passes, the abundance of
limestone and marble, iron and chrome and wood,
and the splendid water of the Great and Little
Gpnpowder rivers, Deer Geek and Winters ruas AID
the acknowledged health and beauty of the country
thus opened up the people of Baltimore city certainly
warrants the opinion that the value and character Of
that the of the Maryland Central Railrord as
local road is assured.
The ordinance which was ratified guarantees the
dorsement by the Mayor and City Council of Baltimore
of six hundred thousand dollars of the first mortgage
bonds of the Company provided the Company raises by
subscription eight hundred thousand dollars additional
and shall have actually expended five hundred thousand
dollars this subscription upon the road, commencing
at the city of Baltimore has the whole road throughout
its entire length under contract and gives the city of
Baltimore first mortgage upon the road and Its pro
perty of every description and kind.
The election in the city of Baltimore on the
18th inst, so far as the number of votes cast is
concerned, was mere farce. But it spoke a
good word for Baltimore and Hartford counties,
if they will have the energy and vim to make
use Of the opportunities it affords and the
money it furnishes to complete the Maryland
Central Railroad If the people of the two
counties, those most interested comply with
the conditions of this 10 IN and aid, it will not
be long before the Baltimore and Philadelphia
Central road will be completed, Towsontown
will have direct route to Philadelphia, a
steam road to Baltimore. and the people along
the line the facilities of railroad nsportaton

CoMMENDABLE.-F the first time in many
in the stationery department of our National
Congress. This has been accomplished by the
wise and prudent precaution taken at the be-
ginning of the session by the contingent expense
committee who issued an order that no station
cry was to be drawn except upon the written or
der of Senator, which should be preserved as a
voucher the settlement OF the stationery clerks
accounts. We think such praseworthy action
in the premises deserves IL complimentary notice
of every honest journalist in the country. The
habit that members and many who are not mem
bers, have in filching paper, pens, ink, Stamps,
envelopes: &C., from the public Treasury-not
for public purposes, but for the use OF families,
friends and self in private ways-should be stop
ped. There has been too much of it already
We take it that there will not be 80 much OF it
again as there has been We are grallfed 10
know that the order Of the committee has al
ready had its telling effect upon the amount Of
stationery required and used by the Senate dur
ing the current term The idea, that whatever
is furnished by the public is ut the disposal and
use Of every one who may feel disposed to use or
has an opportunity to appropriate, should be at
once discarded and SET at defiance by those hav-
ing custody Of things belonging 10 the public
and designed for the use Of public servants. 1t
is a growing disease among our public function
