Baltimore and Delta Narrow. Gauge Rail-
Way.

The Sunday Mems of September Goth, says:
This road, which is now forcing itself upon the
attention. of our people, will connect, as its name
would seem toindicatc, the thriving slate mining
town of Delta, in York county, Pa, with this
city. It's length will he forty five miles, and it
will traverse some of the most delightful, popu-
lous and wealthy districts of our State.
Delta itself is surrounded by highly cutiva-
ted and populOus farming district that has at
present comparatively little intercourse with
This city, owing to its distance from us; and its
quarries OF superior roofing slate, known as the
Peach Bottom slate, afford profitable labor to
several hundred men.
Upon leaving Delta the road skirts along the
southern border of the "Belle-farm" district, u
section long noted for beauty and fertility
Soon thereafter ii reaches La Grange, the cUum-
try seat of e. Stanley Rogers, who, some years
ago was largely engaged in the manufacture of
iron at this point. In close proximity to this
place, and in full view from the line of the road,
are the Rocks of Deer Creek, possibly the grand
est place of natural scenery in Maryland east Of
the Blue Ridge. From this point the reatdf; after
winding through narrow valleys, ascends to the
Thriving village OF Forest lllli, surrounded by
well cultivated farms
Bel Air, the county seat of Hartford county, is
next reached This place has many natural adj
vanages, is inhabited by polite, hospiable and
cultivated people, and surrounded by rich farm
ing districts, and had it railroad facilities it
would soon become one Of the most prosperous
towns in Maryland. From Bel Air the road
strikes off in IL sou,hwesterly direction by Water
vale to Fallston, which, like Forest Hill, is
thriving village, surrounded py well cultivated
farms.
Soon after crossing the Little Gunpowder river
the road enters the Valley OF Long Green-cer-
tainly one of the most beautiful, II not the
largest valley in the State; thence 1t proceeds by
way of Summerieldv valley and Lime hlln Bottom
to Towsontown, and from there to this city, run
ming the greater part of the way between those

Not Much TO Choose Between Them.

That excellent Independent newspaper, the
journal Of Commerce, laments the want of
distinctive issues between the two great po-
litical parties that are contending for the
government Of the country. There Is no
discernibe line Of dcmarcation," says our
valued contemporary. mot even the faint
est. Democrats and Republicans take both
sides of the currency. the tariff. the labor.
and all other questions now before the
country"
The journal might well have added that
ON the far more important question Of the
Presidential fraud, there Is the same alb
sence Of any distinctive issue. In 1876 some
Of the Republican managers entered into n
conspiracy TO cheat in counting the electoral
votes; and by such means they kept out OF
the White House Mr.. rILDEN, who had been
elected and put into it Mr.. HAYES, who had
been rejected by the people. This unprece-
dented act Of fraud first triumphant in
American history would, we might suppose,
form an issue between political parties that
nothing could oblitcrate, and on which the
final judgment Of the people could not be
doubtful. The Republicans were the au-
thors OF the crime. while the Democrats
were special sufferers by its operation.
Yet with kind Of folly amounting almost
to madness, such as for the last twenty
years has so largely characterized the man
agcmcnt Of the Democratic party, the
representatives Of that party in Congress,
after long elaboration and with their eyes
wide open, determinedly Invested them-
selves Of this advantage and made them
selves accessories with the Republicans
after the fact! Proclaming their belief in
their own power 10 make fraud sacred, they
adopted resolutions that HAYES title
should not be disturbed Thus they put
themselves on the same plane with their
opponents, and, so far as it lay in their
power, removed and oblltcrated the great
issue which their antagonists had provided
for them
The journal Of Commerce is clearly in tho
right There is very little TO choose be-
tween the two parties.
