LADIES HATs.-A lady correspondent of one
of our fashion papers describes the new style
hat as follows:
CHATS have gone up. mo slang intended. }
The crowns are several degrees higher than
they were in the Summer; they stand now, at
least, los in the shade. l don't know where
they are bound for, but if they keep on at the
rate they are going they will get there, certain.
Felt and velvet and fine corded silk, are the
materials most in use for the bat proper; while
feathers of every description, from the long,
rich, ostrich plume and fleecy marabout, down
to a chipping birds wing, are seen in trim
ming ribbon and velvet, and Autumn leaves.
and flowers of the shade of the hats, are thrown
in in rich profusion and considerable confusion.
Some hats have narrow brims turned up at one
side, others have narrow brims turned up at
both sides, and others have narrow brims turned
up all around while others still have no brims,
and as a consequence they don't turn up any
where. A modest price for hat this season,
at a millinery bazaar, is S25. The same hat
made at home would cost about So, all things
included"

WESTERN MARYLAND RAILRoAD-At meet
ing of the stockholders of the Western Mary
land Railroad, in Baltimore on the 10Th inst,
the Treasurer submitted a report showing a
large increase in the receipts since the extern
sion of the road to Hagerstown, although the
purchase of additional rolling stock has added
considerably to the expenses. In due time the
Western Maryland will show fair balance
sheet. One hundred and ninety seven thous-
and seven hundred and seven dollars earn
ed during the year is very fair showing,
and when the Company is relieved OF the heavy
expense Of keeping the worn out track of the
eastern division in repair, and of the tonnage
tax paid to the Northern Central for the use of
its track from the Relay House to Baltimore,
no apprehensions need be felt about dividends
on stock 1t is stated in the Chief Engineers
report that work has not yet been resumed on
the Williamsport extension. The contractor
who had the work in charge absconded, leav-
ing unpaid debts to the amount of fifteen or
twenty thousand dollars. Either on account
of the complications created by the dishonesty
of this contractor, or because no proposals have
yet been received. the work has not been relet.
1t is expected that the air line between 0wings
Mills and Baltimore will be completed by June,
1873. This will lessen the distance between
Baltimore and Westminster by seven miles
The present Board of Directors was reelected.

ARREST ON A SERIOUS CHARGE.-On Saturday
night last as party of young men from near
Baynesville, were returning from this place
to their homes, for amusement they were load
ing and dscharging a small pocket pistol which
one of them carried. In passing the house OF
Mr.. Baublitz, on the Joppa read, about half a
mile east of this place. one of them fired the
pistol, two balls from which entered Mr.. Baub
itz's windows, creating considerable confu-
sion among the inm ates of the house. Com
plant was made and Justice Herbert issued
warrants for their arrest, which were placed in
the hands of Deputy Sheriff Risteau, who
brought them before the Magistrate on Wed
nesday. trial was had when it was clearly
proven that the shooting was purely accident
al. The young men were then released

LOCAL MATTERS.

MARYLAND AND PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD
The Bel Air 2Egis of 18th inst, publishes the
article from our paper 18th inst, in reference
to the first mortgage on the above road and
comments as follows upon it:
The surveys of this road between Baltimore
city and the Susquehanna river, we learn, have
been completed, following, for the most part,
the survey made last summer by Col. johnson.
We are inclined to the belief that the action
above Indicated is something more than feint
the part of some wealthy corporation, to
prevent rival company from occupying the
ground and our belief is founded on the fact
that the railroad fsciities now existing between
New York and Baltimore are inadequate for
the transportation Of the immense amount of
freight to be carried, and for the proper accom-
mediation of.the local traffic.
Whether the movement be feint or not,
proper degree of encouragement to the enter
prise, on the part of the people of Hartford and
Baltimore counties, would not be wasted. If
the projectors of the new road mean business.
such encouragement would render success GER
tain. If, on the other hand, the movement is
only feint our willingness to assist in build
ing road through this section might be made
available in other hands to bring about the de-
sired result.
The bonds of the projected road will probably
be offered for sale, instead of soliciting sub
scriptons to its capital stock. These bonds
would be first lien upon the road, and there
fore safe investment, and profitable one,
provided the road should be a success. The
value of these bonds, of course would depend
entirely upon the amount of business done by
the road Of this every man can judge for him
self We believe that the moment the road is
ready for travel and freight, it would begin to
pay; and no one who has ever bestowed the
smallest attention on the subject, can fail to
see that such road, traversing, as it would
the most fertile and Of he
two counties, would develope the farming in
terests in each, to a most wonderful extent.
In the event of the construction of the new
road, Bel Air, il is stated, would be made a
prominent point upon the line but the people
of this neighborhoOd should not be deferred in
their efforts to procure the Bel Air and Mag
nolia railroad, or at least have their subscrip
ton papers filled to the requisite amount neces-
sary to build. They would thus be in a posi-
ton to secure for themselves and for a large
portion of the county besides, a road under
their own control.
Our friends of the Delta and Towsontown
road, in case the new road becomes fixed fact,
might also make the construction of branch
road. to connect with the proposed roed, GER
tainty. Thew have large amount of money
subscribed, which would no doubt willingly be
diverted into new channel, if the projected
road would afford them all the facilities they
want
The whole subject is one of vital interest to
our cit zens. and we shall await the course of
events with anxiety.

ACCIDENT ON THE YORK Road RAILWAY On
Sunday afternoon last little girl named Black
man, met with painful accident on the above
road As the 5 o clock car from BALTIC. double
decker-was passing the Star Hotel, short dis
lance above the station, the unfortunate little
girl, aged about 10 years, ran out and took hold
of the side of the car, and as she was stepping
over small gravel bank her foot slipped which
caused her TO fall beneath part of the running
gear, which crushed one of her legs in horrible
manner She was taken up and conveyed to the
residence of her parents, at Waverly, where she
was properly cared for. We have heard that the
limb was since amputated. No blame is attach
ed to the employees of the road.
