The TAYLOR WOrks-ElectiOn of Officers
Heavy Orders-NOteS, &c.

Under date of February IA, a correspon-
dent at Chambersburg, Pa, writes as follows:
The Taylor Manufacturing Works, lately re-
moved here from your city, are in operation
now, but can be scarcely said to be fully so,
though arrangements are being made to that
end. On the payroll are now $50 men, and
by the end of the month there will be 200.
Ninety-six of those who were with the com
pany at Westminster are en- its payroll now.
Sixteen of them have moved their families
here and seventeen more will do so by the list
of April. Fifty new houses have been erected
in Chambersburg since last summer and pro-
badly that many more will be put up this
spring.
Business of the company is good; far be-
yond expectations. Orders are coming in
every day. So far this week six have been
received, and at present there are orders for
$50, 900 worth on the books of the company.
On Monday evening meeting of stockhold-
ers was held to hear the report of Auditors
and Directors. The report was very satisfac-
tory, and was unanimously adopted. Last
year, the first under the new management,
the business of the company showed a net
earning of Sc, 200 on the capital stock of Sl5,
600, after paying expenses OF moving from
Westminster, salaries, wages, NC. The whole
capital is $150,OOO, but $500 was not en-
plOyed IN the earnings OF this surplus OF 3D.
200. A dividend of five per cent, it is said,
will soon be declared. The Auditors spoke
in very fattering terms of the manner in which
the books were kept, and encomiums were
showered upon Mr.. Frank W. Shriver, chief
clerk.
An election for officers for the present year,
on Tuesday, resulted in the election of the
present ones, except Col. Thos. B. Kennedy
and Hon. John L. Grier, who declined re-
interests In their stead D. X. Appenzellar
and Dr. j. McLanahan were chosen.
Henry Arbaugh, boiler maker, met with
