minimum amount OF capital (SZ5,0 Ou,)
required by the charter for building the
road from the Pennsylvania line to the
ore mines was subscribed, chiefly by
the owners Of the Chestnut Hill Iron
Ore Company's Ore Mines. As the
building Of this Railroad now depends
upon the citizens Of Carroll county, it
is to be hoped that they will by giving
the right Of way and subscribing lib
orally to the stock of the road, push it
forward as fast as possible. The CON-
pletion Of the road from the Ore Mines
to Westminster, depends upon the eiti-
zens along the line, and the people Of
Westminster. There can be no doubt
that the road if built, viii increase the
value of the farms in this valley at least
twenty to twenty. five dollars per acre,
and afford to the farmers facilities Of
obtaining cheap lime, and Of disposiDg
of their ores and timber, as the North
ern Central Railroad Company have
decided to grant the same amount Of
drawback on the rates over their road
for traffic originating on the Bachman
Valley, as has been promised by the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company aud
the Columbia Bridge Company. We
think that there are very good grounds
for concluding that this road, il built,
will prove profitable investment to the
stockholders. The meeting adjourned
to meet at Groves Paper Mill on Thurs
day afternoon, April ID,
