THE STATE ORPHANS HOME is in

THE STATE ORPHANS HOME is in
readiness for occupation, and due mott
rication OF the fact has been served
upon the conductors of the Catholic
Orphan Asylum in Virginia Git,
where there are, we believe, some
twenty-five orphan children now liv-
ing. The law under which the State
Orphans Home was built, contenplat-
the new building and also provides
that the payment to the Virginia insti-
tuition of $40 per month for each of the
children domiciled there should stop
upon completion of the Orphans
Home. n Notwithstanding these facts,
however, the Sisters, in whose charge
these orphans now are, refuse to give
them up; and the consequence is that
the Home is unOccupied save by Mr..
and Mrs. Corey, the man and wife
who, were se!e t. d to take charge of it.
Much as We are inclined to respect
the religious zeal which prompts the
Sisters to their course of action, we
would respectfully suggest that the
wishes Of the children should be con-
sulted-or, if any Of them have parents
or relatives that they should be afford
ed an opportunity to have q voice in
the matter. 1t is not possible that the
Asylum in Virginia City can be SO
s-ommodious or fitting place as the
large and handsome building which
has just been completed and furnished
st SO much cost to the State, and unless
the wards who are now in charge of
tho Sisters are their own special pro-
property, perhaps it would be well if
some Of them, at least, should be per-
United to occupy the new quarters.

Western Maryland Railroad, &c.

A committee, including Joshua Mot.
ter, Esq. President Of the Emmttsburg
Branch Railroad, and some others, d.
rcctors thereof, visited Baltimore few
days ago and held conference with the
President aud Directors Of the Western
Maryland road, to ascertain, if after
completing their work the latter com.
pany would agree to run it on least at a
fair per ccntage on the cost of construc.
ton. No defuitc conclusion, however,
was arrived at, though every encourage,
mcnt was given.
The citizens Of Emmittsburg still
entertain some hope that the main trunk
of the Western Maryland may, with
profit aud advantage to all parties con
cerned, be carried through their town,
crossing the mountain at that point,
intersecting the already graded track of
the Western Maryland in Ilarbaugh's
valley, distance OF six or seven miles
1t is asserted this line can be adopted,
a much higher grade obtained, aud the
road actually built at less cost than it
would take to finish the road already
partly graded by the way of Mechanics
town.
The matter, We learn, met with such
favorable consideration with the presi.
dent and directors Of the Western
Maryland, us to cause them to pass a
resolution 10 prospect aud survey the
Emmittsburg route, with the view of
ascertaiuing its practicability, ia ease it
might be found advisable to adopt En-.
mittsburg as the main stem, giving
Mechanicstown branch, to which lat.
ter point the grading is already com.
pleted
ln the mean time, however, il would
be well for the Emmittsburgers to pro.
coed at once, aud build their branch, so
chat when flushed it may serve as an
inducement to procure the through line
There is nothing like taking II hold in
earnest. Result as it may, the En-
mittsburg road must be made. The
sooner done, therefore, the better
There seems very little doubt that the
Emmittsburg route, though probably
two miles longer, is the best grade, aud,
perhaps cheapest. There should be no
delay in settling so important matter
We learn all the bids have been re-
ceived and opeaed for completing the
Westera Maryland through from Balti
more to iagerstown, and that they are
nov held for aaayzation, final decision
and awarding at the next meeting Of
the board of directors.
Engineers haze been, and now are,
ousily engaged making surveys, prepar
atory to permanently locating the line
from Baltimore to the point where it
connects with that already running, at,
or near, 0wibgs Mrs, aud also from
