IHE BALTIMORE AND POTOMAC RAILROAD
1t IS satisfactory to note from time Go time the
progress OF the work on the Baltimore and Po-
tomac Railroad, showing that Governor Bowie
and the managers Of the road mean to carry out
Their promise that the iron horse shall be run
ming over it by the first OF April next.
The grading has now been finished on the
main line Of the road from the Patapsco to be-
low Marlboro, with the exception of one sec
tion, which will be completed next week. Ties
are being delivered along the ffue, and it is pro-
babe that considerable portion Of the rail will
be laid this fall; and if the work within this
District and in Baltimore county Il pushed with
the same activity, there is no good reason why
the cars should not be running even earlier than
April.
This road will strike the Patapsco about seven
miles below Elkridge Landing, and take nearly
straight course TO the Little Patuxent at
about the mouth of Rogue Hsrbor Branch, cross
ing the Annapolis and Elk Ridge Railroad near
WATTS The crossing OF the Big Patuxent will be
made about quarter of a mile below Lemons
Bridge, from whence the track will take almost
a straight line 10 Huntingdon, the point of juno
ton with the Washington Branch. Tbs main
line thence follows down Collington Branch.
crossing The West Branch OF the Pat,xeu tpes-
its mouth, sndso on to the Marlboro Depot. on
the lands of Clement Hill.
About seven miles below Marlboro the road
strikes the table land, over which there is com
paratively little work to be done, the natural
grade being very nearly the grade of the road.
The road thence passes about midway between
Brandywine and L. B., and enters CHARLES
county. In this county two routes have been
surveyed, one having its terminus opposite
Aqua Creek, and the other about the mouth of
Pope's Creek. One OF these routes will be set
tied upon next week, as the contractors, who
have finished their work above, are DESTROYS of
putting in for This job.
The grading upon the Baltimore and Poto-
mac road is not heavy, but q corsideI able num-
Der of culverts will be required, and several
bridges, the most important of which will be
those over the Great and Little Patuxent, 200
feet and $50 in length.

A CHILD MURDERED BY ITS FArHER.-Mich-

William, while under the influence of LIQUOR
this morning quarreled with his wife. Fearing
that he would take her life, she ran from the

threw q knife after her. The weapon missed its
months, who was sitting ON the doorstep, entered
its left breast with such as to pierce the heart
causing instant death. Some persons resid-

Wall Street in a Commosson,

NEW YORK, Oct. 12.-Wall street Is slightly
disturbed by story that prominent
Broad-street bear on stocks and German
banking firm will demonstrate in the
Gold Room tomorrow to lock up cash
gold. 1t is stated that the Broad-street
bear is short of six millions of gold, bor-
rowed to make up time deliveries. The
German banking firm is reported long of
gold. The object Of the Broad-street bear
is supposed to be to advance gold for the
purpose of selling more, as we'll as for pur-
poses adversely affecting bull speculations
on stock exchange by an increased activity in
money, which a lookup of cash gold would
naturally make. The object Of the German
banking firm is to unload their long gold on
the markets. It is stated that the Canada
banks, which hold the BULBS floating gold
here, refuse to enter the scheme, but will
probably accept higher rates for the use Of
their gold in the regular loan market. The
New York banks hold twelve and half
millions Of gold against twenty-one and O
half millions last year. These figures show
how easy a squeeze in cash gold could be
made by few individuals. The gold
market tomorrow will demonstrate whe-
Their the scheme will be carried out. In the
mean time much interest ia felt in the
matter from the magnitude of the interests
involved.
Gold opened stronger, and became ex-
cited during the afternoon and active upon
the lookup stories.
