Governor Hamilton, of Maryland is
engaged in vigorous war on the demo
cratic bosses. His local paper, in a
recent editorial, charges that there is
scarcely a branch of the public service
which the ruling ring has not made
more or less wreck" 1t concludes
with the statement that "the excesses
of the Legislature under the manage
ment of these men for years are as bad,
though probably not to the same extent,
and owing to the want of material, az
the worst species of the carpet-ba gov
ernments in the South or the Tweed

THE NEW ROAD.
Its Supposed Roate-rhe Wilming.
ton and Brandywine Cemetery,
to be I'm all Probability Tunneled.

A number of surveys for the route OF
the new railroad through this city have
been made by the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad Company. 1t IL understood
that n route through the eastern part OF
the city has been marked out, but
nothing definite can be learned with
engaged, during the past week, pros
pecting in the western part of the city,
and it is thought that the road will be
located there.
Mr.. Smith, the engineer who has
charge of the work of locating the new
road, applied to William Candy, presi-
dent of the Wilmington and Brandy
wine Cemetery Company, on Monday
! for permission to tunnel the cemetery.
The application was made by Mr.. Smith
himself and cannot be acted upon un-
til the particulars with respect to the
tunnel are furnished by the y. 4 O. Com
panv. Mr.. Candy thinks, however,
the request will be granted The ceme-
terry company will require that the tun
mel shall pass low enough not to damage
the property.
The tunnel. according to Mr.. Smith s
survey, SllHll ut ltTi be4b" tHt
ground. 1t will be l8 feet high, and
will, therefore leave 32 feet between the
top of the tunnel and the surface Of the
ground. The route which calls for this
tunnel will probably extend along Mad
ison and Monroe street, by tunnel, and
will pass under the Gilpin property,
now occupied by Mr.. George Church.
man, striking the cemetery opposite
Monroe street and passing under it
diagonally, will come out on Adams
street in the neighhorhood of Lowering
avenue, which is about half way down
the hill, the crest Of which is at Shall
cross avenue and Adams street and the
base at Adams street and the Brandy
wine. 1t is then proposed to bridge the
Brandywine at the most convenient
point with view to Strikingg Elliott
Run on the opposite side. The tunnel
ling of WawstSset hill will be avoided
by following the course Ofthis run. The
bridge will probably be Il handsome iron
structure, and will be 40 feet above the
surface of the creek
The location of the southern tcrmi-
nus of the tunnel is not yet known.
Some think it will be in BrOwntOwn.
Others believe it will be in the vicinity
of Second and Madison streets.
