Specializing on the Prospects.

The Hartford Democrat Of last week says: "The
receipts Of the road between Baltimore and Tow
sontown, chiefly from passenger travel. averages
about n hundred dollars day for seven days in
tho week. making over thirty six thousand dollars
year Allowing six per cent. of this for opcrat-
ing expenses. which l. very liberal allowance.
the net earning. will be ertwenty four thousand
dollars. the interest ON four hundred thousand.
more than twice much ~ that part of the road
and necessary equipment cost. So that IL the road
never passed Towsontown and the business never
increased. the bondholiers have ample security
for the prompt payment Of the principal should a
sale Of the road ever become necessary. This fac,
alone Is sufficient for the reported "stifIcn-
ing Of the bond market and the advance In the
rate from ninety TO hundred and prospcctivcly
10 n hundred and ten. Such securities are we'll
worth the attention Of capitalists n, the advanced
rate. Without meaning 10 detract from the
merits of others. where all have done WE'LL special
praise Is undoubtedly duo TO Mr.. Gilmor, the
eompany's financial agent.

Gone to Europe.

The San Of Tuesday says "Among the passen-
gers by the White star steamer from New York
for Europe last week was Mr.. T.. H. Williams, son
Of lloa. George Hawkins Williams. Of Baltimore
county, prcsidcnt Of the Maryland Senate. Before
going abroad young Mr.. Williams made deed Of
trust to his father. which has been fled for record
in the Clerks Office at Towson,own. The deed is
dated May ~, lSs2. and conveys all the estate and
property Of every description belonging TO the
young man upon the condition Of receiving 80. 900
per annum from his father. who may increase the
annuity If deemed advisable. On the death Of the
young man the property is TO be divided among
his heirs. The deei was acknowledged in Baiti.
more city. and is recorded there also. The depar-
ture Of young Mr.. Williams has occasionei some
surprise and given rise 10 very much gossip from
the fact that he was reported TO have been on the
eve Of marrying n very esiimablc young lady in
Baltimore city. IL Is understood that the young
mans estate all inherited from his grandfather,
the late John $ Giitings. is Taael q, abou, $780,
600. and this Is the property which he has convey
cd in trust 10 his father"

Ex-senator Wells, Of Anne Arundel seems to
be following NJ the Governor pretty closely. The
Governor answer TO the petition asking for a
mandamus to show cause why the police sloop bill
was not returned by him within the constitutional
time. AMI in which the Senator Is especially in-
terested, is not Law without his signature. says
among other things that the bill presented was no,
tho original bill engrossed and passed. but sim
ply copy; and that this copy is not sealed with
the seal Of the State as required by the cons,i,a.
ton. The Senator claims tina, every bill the Gov.
ernor has signed in his official capacity Is only a
copy Of the original and that the provision Of the
constitution requiring all bills to be sealed with
the seal Of the State before being presented for the
Governors signature, has never been complied
with. When legal doctors disagree the eonstitu.
tional patient is bound to suffer and the post NOR
TEN examination alone reveals the true nature Of
the wounds and suggests the proper remedies tina,
should have been applied. Tho people are daily
