r he Old dominion Tine and their
Rail Road Ptoject.

The New York Times, referring to the recent
purchase OF the Junction and Breakwater
Railroad. says:
The junction and Breakwater Railroad is
about forty-fve miles in length, but by q zig
gag route that makes it almost useless when
operated in the interests of the Philadelphia,
Wilmington and Baltimore road, as it now is.
II is highly probable that a portion Of the road
may be abandoned-that portion North OF
Georgetown, the county seat of Sussex county
or il may be all operated III conjunction with
IL new road being built from the Choptank
River to Harrington, and thus forming a new
route between New York and Baltimore by the
way Of Lewes. The Old Dominion's plan is
supposed, by those most Interested in its oper
alton in Maryland. TO he the opening up of the
already built railroads of the lower Peninsula
by close connection with steamers from Iewes
with New York To do this requires only that
seven miles more of railroad shall be built i'll
Worcester county, Md, being the seven miles
between st. Martins, on the Wicomico and
Pokomoke Railroad, and the Delaware State
built, the entire Eastern Shore Railroad, sixty
miles in length the Wicomico and Pokomoke,
twenty five miles in length. and the Berlin &
Snow Hill. twenty miles in length and forty
miles of railroad passing through Delaware,
will bc brought into direct connection with
Lewes. Thus the Old Diminion Company will
have secured by this purchase one hundred
and fifty miles OF railroad which pernenates

No Floating Debt.

The Republican says "there is, to-day, not Il
dollar Of floating debt which the city is not
ready to pay, and more than this the City
Treasurer will hold to the credit OF the city
when the taxes are all paid in, as much money
as will be required to meet the current e1-
penses of the year which ends on the the 3oth
day of June, 1875
The above may be partly true since the tax
receivers have just made n statement that
they have collected in July and paid i'll $751;
96S &C. 1t would be very strange indeed II
Council was, mot with that sum able to pay the
immense floating debt that existed in June
last. Why it is the greatest folly to try to
hide or deny this. Has the Republican, forgot
ten that the city was compelled to issue City
Warrants that were hawked about the streets
and sold at about 90 cents on the dollar to
raise the funds to pay for the labor on the
streets and public works.
As to having enough money to carry the
city until July, we do not believe a word OF 1t.
When the Democrats were in power the tax
levy was per cent on the one hundred dollars
Of rental value. Now, we believe it is about
IL per cent on the rental. If the Democrats were
in power they would reduce the taxes again to
the lowest possible rate at which an economi-
cal administration of its affairs may be had.
There are many expenses that would be lop-
ped of.
Reductions could be ma lie in every depart
ment not to mention the adjustment of the
city hospital nuisance.

such ticket to the country it would be trl-
umphant The people are Disguised with poll
CIV candidates, we have already had enough OF
them; let us try it upon principle ana present
to the country men whose characters are en-
tirelv above suspicion. Allen q. Thurman IS
a representative man: he has shown himself
to be @ statesman of the first class, and a pa
triot Nirginian by birth, and fully I'M
bued with those heightened principles WHICH
have ever characterized the sons OF the moth
er of States and Statesmen. He wa born at
Lynchburg, Virginia on the 18th Gay q No
yember. 1918. removed to Ohio, il 1879, was
admitted to the bar in 1885, represented Ohio
in the 10Th Congress, was elected Judge OF the
Supreme Court of Ohio in 1851: was Chief Jus
tice of that Court from 1871 to 1906: was elect
ed to the United States Senate as Democrat
in place of b. +. Wade. Republican, and took
his seat March 4th, 1869. His term Of service
will expire March 4th, 1873.
Thomas F. Bayard was born nj Wilmington,
Del. October 10Th, 1925 was admitted to the
bar in 1851. In 1853 he was appointed United
States District Attorney for Delaware, but re-
signed 1854; was elected to the Unit cd States

Bayard this father who had been appointed
to ill the vacancy occasioned by the death q
George Read Riddle and took his seat March
4th 1869. His term of service will expire
March 9TH, 1875. Mr.. Bayard has descended
from an illustrious family. His father. and
grandfather were both I. S. senators. at a
time too when it required qualities superior
to the mere fact of being n good rolticisn TO
obtain hat high dignity.
With such ticket as this W. could scarcely
