The Wilmi4gton and Nsw Castle Raj
Road ID to betunited by act Of our legisla.
ture with the Philadelphia, Wilmington and
Baltimore Railroad. This road was built
about the year 1851, and leased by the
Philadelphia, Wilmington & Baltimore Rail
Road Co., for rental Of per cent on the
Investment.
The Delaware railroad was not then In
existence. The principal reason for its
construction was to connect the Whining
ton and Baltimore railroad with the New
Castle and Frenchtown railroad, which
was then in active operation. Steamboats,
run form Baltimore to Frenchtown, con-
nected with the railroad which run to New
Castle, and again connected with steamboat
that run to Philadelphia. The New Castle
and Frenchtown railroad was originally an
independent company, and was the first
railroad built in this State. It was con-
structed about the year 1880 or 1881, soon
after the construction of the Liverpool and
Manchester Railroad In England, and some
alledge was the first passenger railroad built
in the country. About the year 1888 the
Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore
Railroad was constructed, and was soon af-
terwards connected with the New Castle
and Frenchtown Railroad, and formed
consolidated company. We have recollec-
tions Of frequently riding on this road, and
that it was one OF the pleasentest routes in
the country. About the years 1855 56, tho
Delaware Railroad was built mainly by the
fund of the Baltimore Railroad who endors-
ed it's bonds. Before the completion of the
Delaware Railroad the Legislature gave
permission to the consolidated companies
the privilege of manteling that part of the
road between New Castle and Frenchtown,
that was not used by the Delaware Railroad
Company. They accordingly pulled up the
rails, and as separate road it ceased to
exist.

though the number killed is not stated.

had the eject Of leaving his

petition OF the Russians TO Ghiacet is
thought, 10 be the precursor OF a serious
attempt 10 cross the Danube, which pre-
viOus dispatches have fixed for about
the 10Th. The cannonading between the
opposing forces still continues. Ina both
engagements the Russians appear to
have been victorious. The batteries Eat
