RAILROAD MATTERs.-A great
many of our citizens are enquIrIng
about the, contemplated railroad, no
one seeming to know anything q.
bout it. All we can ascertain rel
alive to it, is.that the Subscription
Books have been opened all along
the line, AND shat subscriptions Of
Stock r beng daily received
More than a week ago, $4,000 had
been subscribed at Cumberland,
and the subscription IN McConnels-
vile has reached about s12 ,000,.-
do not know how much hcs
been subscribed IN Malta, and at
other points along the line. There
is ne doubt but that If the matter
is pushed with proper energy, the
money can be raised with which 10
make the road a success.
