Our Delta NeighbOrs.
No. /.

The name of Delta Is familiar to nearly every
ono in Hartford and York counties, in connection
with the York and Delta and the Baltimore and
Delta Railroads, 1t being the terminus of both
roads.
Delta is situated on the northern side of Slate
Ridge, in York county, Pennsylvania in beau
tiful valley running parallel with the ridge. The
town Is about one mile in length. about one fourth
of n mile in width. and contains about $50 inhabi
tants. 1t is well arranged and contains many ele.
gantly finished buildings, which. with lofty oaks
and flowing NAPLES scattered about the town

The trip from Baltimore to the Asylum property
and return was made in As minutes, including a
stoppage of some time. The directors have de.
cided TO lease the one mile of railway from the
Maryland line to Delta, that it may hereafter be
a continuous road, under one management, 1t
having been necessary to get a charter from
Pennsylvania for that portion of the road. The
Baltimore SIN says:
it is thought the road will be completed to
Towsoutown early in March, with trains run
ming. In n few weeks the intermediate points
of stoppage will be named and n time schedule
prepared. Excavations are being made al the
city end for erection of depot, which will be n
neat but temporary structure. The present
rolling stock of the company comprises one en-
ginc, three handsome passenger coaches, which
will lie supplemented by two Others from York
in a few days, and several fiat and house cars.
The AmeyicaR of Tuesday says:
After the return from the inspection of the
road the board of Directors held a meeting, the
business before them being understood to be in
relation to the G,lmur contract for placing the
bonds of The road. The result was not made
public, but 1t is expected that the contract,
which expires to day, Q7th,) will be renewed -
II was rumoled that the Hartford county mem.
bers of the board would retire at the ing
yesterday, bu no such exodus took place and
all the members of The board are in perfect har.
mony.

A CLAIM WHICH SHOULD BE PAID-The
last Legislature passed law authorizing
Governor Hamilton to prescribe regulations
for the destruction of animals affected with
infectious or contagious diseases. In the
spring of 1880 pleuro-pneumonia was dis
covered among cattle belonging to Mr. Ed
ridge W. Gallup, ON the Dairy Farm in this
county Accordingly, under instructions
from the Governor, his entire herd of valua-
Bile dairy cows, including the sound animals
as well as those affected, were slaughtered
and buried. Mr. Gallup was also enioined
from keeping any cattle on the place for
eight months. Being engaged IN the dairy
business his loss was very great. No provi-
sion was made for paying for cattle thus
slaughtered by order of the State, and Mr.
Gallup therefore appeals to the Legislature
for reimbursement. He should not ask
in vain. The law under which his cattle
were killed contemplated an appeal to the
Legislature and his claim should be prompt.

1t is gratifying to see that the Legislature
is addressing itself so promptly to the most
important matters of legislation, such as the
registration and election laws, the police bill,
&c. Experience has shown that when
weighty matters are left until near the end of
the session, they sometimes fail entirely, or
are crippled with 50 many amendments that
their passage is an evil rather than good to
the State
