The SAN Demanding Election Case.

SAN BERNARDINo, December 30th.-The
San Bernardino election case bids fair to last
for some days to come. At present the count
of the various precincts is going on with no
material change. Various rumors are afoat
and strong suspicious are entertained that the
ballots were tempered with the night after
the election, as they were left open on table
at the place Of counting in the Courthouse,
and it is possible our people will be called
upon to turn out en- masse and verify each
Individual vote.

NEw SoNG.-The song entitled "The Old
Minstrel, " by A. B. Cheney, is having an
unprecedentedly large sale, both here and
throughout the East, and bids fair to become
one of the popular songs of the day. It is
especially recommended to those having
medium compass of voice, and the words are
unusually good. A stock of this song can be
found sc all music stores.

Proposals Ask ed for Building the
Road.
From the Baltimore Sun.
Mr.. II. T. Douglass, chief engineer Of
the Philadelphia branch Of the Balti-
more and Ohio, has advertised for pro-
posals for the graduation and masonry
on 27 miles of the Maryland and 80
miles of the Delaware division. The
work IL to be laid off in one mile sec
tions, and the proposals asked are from
the third TO the goth section in Mary
land, and from the fifth to the Hth sec
tion in Delaware, which will cover the
distance between the Snsquehanna and
Wilmington.
The q miles in Maryland, commenc-
ing three miles east Of Baltimore, will
extend to within six or seven miles of
Havre de Grace. Watson's Island,
where the Susquehanna will be bridged,
Is opposite Perryville, and hardly mile
from the Philadelphia, Wilmington and
Baltimore Railroad bridge. SO far AZ
known, the bridge will I've suspension,
at least in part, though the efforts OF
parties interested in the developement
of Hartford have not relaxed their
efforts for crossing higher up.
The grade, which was to be secured
| by higher crossing, is an important
consideration for the Railroad. The
crossing higher up presents more diff
culties on the Cecil than it does on the
| Hartford side, whereas the Watson's s
Island crossing affords excellent facili-
ties on the Cecil side, and facilities for a
| beautiful sweeping curve. Abundant
| material tor masonry and abutments is
to be had in what are known as the
Port Deposit qllarries, and there are n
| number of localities where it may he
made desirable 70 open other qnarrih>
to supply the large demand for 'l'S
Railroad construction
The proposals are to h' r"ceive1! unit
June 10, and fifteen days after bids are
accepted the contractors are required
to be ready for work. Prior to this
business preliminary, the announce
ment that the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad had effected a loan of twelve
millions of dollars in England, and the
settlement of the Jersey Central ques-
tion quickly following that important
financial transaction, indicated sutti-
GENTLY the steady purpose of President
Garrett to secure New York outlet.
SO much of the season favorable to
Railroad construction was allowed to
glide by this year, however, without "A
beginning Of active operations, that
many were disposed to consider that
another year at least would elapsc be-
fore the work was begun. The building
of line to connect three of the great
cities of the Atlantic coast-such az
Baltimore, Philadelphia and New York
having already an established Railroad
route, involves many details which
must he maturely considered before Il
spade is put into the ground.
Those who have watched the devel-
opement of Mr.. [ arretts plans in this
particular appreciate the difficulties Of
the situation. For more than year,
however, there has been no seeming re-
taxation of purpose and nearly all the
preliminary work has been quietly and
steadily prosecuted by able and com
petent agents.
