7 The meeting of the stockholders of the
3. " H. Il, In Winchester, on Wednesday
last, was in all respects tho most satisfactory
OF any yet held. The object of the meeting
was to ratiiy contracts made by the directory
for the completion of line from Shepherds
town to Hagerstown, and also to take steps
to extend the line south and east. The meet>
ing gave power to the directory to take such
steps as in their judgment would accomplish
that purpose, having propositions before them
that looked favorable for making line of
$50 miles additional to that already built
The stockholders ratified all former coo.
tracts set out in the report submitted by the
directory for their appreciation The report
oil the President and Directors showed that
the entire portion of the road from Haeers.
town, Md, to the Shenandoah Iron Works
IN Rockingham county, Va, including the
bridge over the Potomac at Sbepherdstown,
is under contract, in heavy penalties, to be
completed by the first of July next, and was
IN every respect most satisfactory. An order
passed by the meeting, at the instance of
Eice>Prcsident Boyce, that 100000 of
stock formerly held by the Central Improve
ment Co, and bought in for the Railroad
Co., be cancelled, gave much satisfaction; as
also the information given that 500 ,OCO of
mortgage bonds formerly held by the same
Co., had been surrendered and destroyed.
The work of building the road now goes
bravely on at all points, and its prospects are
as bright as the MONDAY sun
The contractors, Messrs. Best 4 Hoppock,
with large number of hands, began opera
lions on the northern extension of the rail-
road, on the farm of Col. H. Kyd Douglas,
opposite shepherdstOwn, on Monday morn
ing of last week. The Hon. A. r. Boteler
after ccngratulating the contractors and en-.
glDeers, struck the first pick and show led
the first shovel of this extension.

THE NEWSPAPER BOOM.

Inc press is beginning to complain that
the business boom, which has struck every
thing else, has not yet bestowed its kindly
ottices upon the newspapers. The Chicago
tribune notes the fact that while ''tbe price
OF type has been raised, coal is dearer, labor
has advanced, and white paper, the leading
item in newspaper expense, has been thrust
up 33 to so per cent, publishers charg-
ing the old price to their subscribers and the
old rates for Advertising" Thus the news
paper boom is boom in expenses rather than
profits, unless it may be said that the i'm
proved times gives them a boom in the way
of increased business.
The Tribune says 'some Of the news
papers have dropped their supplements to re-
duce expenses, and few have ventured to
raise their subscription prices. The St. Louis
morning papers have advanced their rates
from four cents copy at retail to five cents
md by the week have increased their charges
ise cents. Papers in other cities are cons
semrlating reduction in the size of their
sheets where their presses will permit it,"
The Tribune has itself dropped part of
its supplements and says it will drop moro of
them If the price of paper keeps on advanc-
ing. The Times, Chicago, has advanced its
price one cent per copy, retailing at six cents
instead of Eve, and raising its delivery price
to city subscribers five cents per week. In
making the announcement of the advance
the publisher says the cost of printing the
Times is at the rate of 500, 600 per annum
more than it was year ago. The Tribune
thinks all the great dailies will be obliged to
curtail their size or increase their price if
they would escape serions loss

WANTS TO SELL I. OUT.

The usually well~informed correspondent
of the Richmond Dispatch, thus develops
the designs of Henry S. Walker, late Demo.
crat, but now acknowledged leader of the
forlorn greenback forces in this State. The
Dispatch correspondent says:
Democratic leaders inform me that they
have positively ascertaincd that the confer,
ence here between Henry S. Walker Green
backer) end John W. Mason, chairman of
the Republican State Committee of West
Virginia, and other Republican leaders, re-
suited in an understanding whereby Walker
is to have the ways and means to run against
kcDna for Congress. a. is to turn over the
Greenback vote of the State. to the Radicals
The scheme contemplates the election of
straight>out Radical State ticket. The State
electoral ticket is to be ostensibly Greenback
but selected with view to give West Vir-
GINA to the Radical candidate for the presi-
dency. Senator Blaine and Don Cameron
were consulted, and the whole thing is to
be kept profoundly secret, until the time for
action The main apprehension among the
Radicals is that Walker will be unable to
deliver the goods. There is no doubt, my
infoFmants cay, that the arrangement was
agreed upon"
= For several years past Mr. Henry G..
Yenner. of the Canadian geological survey,
has been steadily acquiring quite reputa>
tion for the accuracy OF his forecast in rela>
ton to the weather. Last year aud the year
before he forctold the coming of storms at or
about certain specified days in the future,
and the variations between the time he forc>
told that the storm would occur were in every
instance very slight. This year he predicted
the coming of the great snow storm which
has lately passed over the country from Nova
Scotia southwark, aud announced at the same
time that there would be another heavy fall
of snow on February l6, and two more snow
storms in March-one on the 18th of the
month and the other on the 21st. lie also
states that there will be very severe cold
weather between the Goth and 25th Of this
month, and much snow during tho month of
March.

THE ENORMITY OF IRISH DIS.
TRESS,

The New York Herald printed on We'd
nesday table showing, in gross and detail,
the counties and places in ireland where the
greatest dcstitution in the matter of food
prevails, and at the same time announces its
donation of one hundred thousand dollars to
the relief fund. The table covers thirteen
counties, aud the number of destitute per-
sons Is given at over three hundred thousand
(3l2,3 800 arc the exact figures SO f4r,) with
the famine increasing, and fevcrs and other
sickness following as the consequence of in
sufficient food. In some places, as at Broona,
In Kerry, 1000 families are suffering, and
the comments attached to each place whero
distress is recorded show that the worst is
not yet reached, as the calamity must ex-
tend, with the gradual exhaustion of the
limited sustenance of the last harvest AL
ready thousands are living on turnips,a most
insufficient article of food, and others are
consuming their seed potatoes, or having
only very scaut supplies of corn meal In its
editorial remarks on this exhibit, the Herald
says: ga million of dollars would be mis>
cEably inadequate sum to be raised in
America for an exigency of such magnitude.
Distributed among the three hundred thou
sand sufferers a million would give only
three dollars and Thirty three cents to each.
which would not be more than two weeks
subsistence, whereas the sufferers must bs
kept alive By charity for several months. or
until the next harvest"

NOTES IN REGARD TO THE Farm or GENERAL WILLIAM
~. CIRCUIT.

MOTIFS IN REGARD TO THE FARM or GENERAL WILLIAM
".
About two and half years ago visited
this farm in the edge of the town of Kirby
and found that the general was, as it were,
just gathering up the rens lie had taken
charge of the old home farm with de-
termination of making it a productive and
if possible profitable piece of property.
visited it again August 9th, 1880, and
find the improvement still going on. 1t is
probable that that the barns will be filed
this year with the hay and grain of the
farm. The barns are two Of thirty-six by
fifty feet EACH and one fifty by one hundred
and twenty feet with basement and stables
below the grain and hay floor. The farm
includes three hundred and fifty acres
The stock is thirtyseven COWS, from ten to
twenty young cattle, eighty sheep and a
dozen or more horses aud colts.
My special object in visiting this farm
was to learn of the effects of very large
amount of earth that was taken from where
the old barns stood and applied TO the soil
Under those old stables to depth of five OIL
six feet, the earth was carted away rankl,
smelling Of ammonia and full to repletior
with the manurial elements absorbed from
the drainage of the stables for many years
find that this earth gave the farm goo,
send off by increasing every crop to which
it was applied, and especially the gras
where it was top dressed 1t is likely tina
much larger quantity was as valuable.
The saving of liquid manures is the sui
ject of constant care. The basement foo
