WESTERN MARYLAND RAILROAD CONNECTION
The new road constructed by the Western Mary
land Railroad from Owings' Mills, connecting
with the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad just
beyond Fulton street, was completed on Tuesday
last, and in a very short time the Western Mary
land Railroad will not use the tracks Of the North
ern Central to the Relay House, but enter the city
through the Baltimore and Potomac tunnel. The
Western Maryland Railroad has been in de-
pendent condition, resulting from the use of the
Northern Central Railroad tracks, their time ia
bes being regulated with reference to those of the
latter road, and in every way it being obliged to
give precedence to the interest and convenience
of the Northern Central Railway. By this con-
nection all these inconvenience are abated. The
Western Maryland Railroad will have their depot
still at Calvert Station. They will ultimately
build a depot, to be used independently, at the
junction with the Baltimore and Potomac Rail-
road.

M9~A curious incident connected with the
recent disaster on the Baltimore and Ohio Rail-
road near Altamont, by which it seems that
the very hour and minute that the accident &C.
Cured were indicated by the watch of conduc-
tor Conoway, is told by the Cumberland NeVs.
When his engine struck the forward train and
he was thrown off on the side of the road, he
fell upon his head and left breast and side.-
His watch was in his left vest pocket, and when
removed from his person was found to have
stopped at one o'clock and ten minutes. When
he was last asked the time, shortly before leav-
ing Altamont he stated it to be one o'clock
In ten minutes by the same watch, this hearty
man was corpse.
Conoway was thrown so violently upon the
ground that his body had upon it, in the region
of the heart a round heavy bruise, caused by
the impression of the watch. The tremendous
jar stopped the watch the exact minute he
struck the earth.

An election was held in North Carolina on

Citizens of good old Baltimore county,
whose convictions are adverse to the continu-

and the interest of your fellow-citizens.

WITHOUT NEwsPAPER.-Nothing represents
a sadder commentary upon the present condi-
ton of society than the large number of fami-
lies both in town and in the country, but more
especially in the latter, that subscribe to no pa
per of any kind. How many families are thus
growing up, utterly Ignorant of what transpires
in the world around them-of the mighty
events of the day. But who can tell the vast
amount of injury that is being inflicted upon
the rising generation-those who are to take
our places at no distant day-growing up with
out any knowledge Of the present or any study
of the past; this ignorance too, being imbued
into them by the sanction of those who should,
and doubtless do know better did they only
think of the injurious effect of their insane
course. Let the head of the family think of
this, and place in the hands of those for whom
he is responsible, the means of acquiring some
knowledge of the moving panorama in which
we act our different parts.

The Union Mills Partly Destroyed By Fire
On Tuesday evening last, about o'clock, a fire
was discovered in the cloth factory of David
Hanway, near Pleasantville, in this county
1t is supposed to have originated from the rap
id running of the machinery attached to the
rag picker. The entire building and contents
were consumed. So rapidly did the flames
spread that several of the hands lost their
trunks and wearing apparel building ad-
joining the factory, used as store room for
wool, was also destroyed, but the wool in the
basement, valued at over 81 900, was, we are
informed, by the free application of water saved.
The saw mill caught fire but was not material
ly damaged. The buildings burned were in
sured in the Hartford company for $4,000.
Messrs. Melville, Childs & Skipper, the les
sees of the property, had lately putt the build
ings new machinery valued at $500, all of
which together with their stock of manufac-
tured goods, were destroyed.
