I correspondence of the Baltimore Chestertown md., nov. 18. A after a rather drowsy existence during the last half Century Chestertown has awakened into new life and activity in recent years and is now quite abreast of the other Eastern Shore towns in Public spirit and Enterprise. A Century ago Chestertown was one of the leading towns in the state. She was then the port of entry for Chester River and the old Customhouse a quaint Brick building painted White is still standing near the River Shore. During the revolutionary War Chestertown was a depot of supplies for the Eastern Shore troops and an important Centre of operations. She numbered at that time among her citizens Many Able and patriotic men not the least Active of whom were Thomas Smyth Thomas Ringgold Benjamin Chambers and major Simon Wickes. Shipbuilding seems to have been carried on quite actively and it was Here that the Chester Galley commanded by Cape. Thomas course and also by Commodore Graton was fitted out. Arms were also manufactured Here for the Continental troops. Prior to the revolution Chestertown had carried on a profitable tobacco Trade with England but after the War its Commerce with that of the other Eastern Shore towns was gradually absorbed by Baltimore. Hut of its Trade declined Chestertown continued to assert its supremacy among the Basem Shore towns by in ans of the polish and refinement of its society and the ability of its Public men. The location Bere of Quot Washington College which was intended to Supply for the Eastern Shore the educational advantages furnished by St. Johns College for the Western counties gave a tone to society Here which survived the loss of Busi Ness Prosperity. The College named in Honor of Gen. Washington is said to have been visited by the a father of his country a who was doubt less handsomely entertained by the hospitable and patriotic citizens of the town. It is More than probable that this was the Only visit he Ever paid to the Eastern Shore. The old College buildings erected Over a Hundred years ago were destroyed by fire in 1827 and rebuilt in 1844. They a re Square Brick structures the Central building surmounted by an Observatory and Belfry perched up it a a Green Knoll commanding an extensive View with a Fine Campus in front and ample accommodation for students. The College is still in Active operation with a corps of professors Etc., and is of great Benefit to the town though its sphere is More restricted than in former times when students came to it from All portions of the Peninsula and also from Distant states. Many Well known men have been educated within its Walls not the least prominent of whom was Hon. E. F. Chambers United states senator and judge whose memory is still cherished in Many a Maryland Home. Judge Chamberss residence a Square Brick mansion by the River Side Aud once the Home of cheesiest Hospital ties is now Unten anted and its deserted appearance with closed shutters and dilapidated Entrance suggests sad memories to those who recall the Days when the kindly old judge with his cordial smile and Hearty manner welcomed the guests who found there the truest Type of Eastern Shore hospitality. The Chambers House is one of a Row of quaint old Brick buildings which stand Only a few feet Back from the River. The gardens and lawns lapped by the water make a very pretty effect and one of the chief attractions of the town is its proximity to the River of All the Eastern Shore county towns it is the Only one directly on a River of considerable Width. The Chester from which the town takes its name is one of the broadest and most Beautiful of ail the Noble tributaries of the Chesapeake. At Sunrise this morning looking from the deck of the Steamer Corsica when in the neighbourhood of Quaker neck wharf a water View of remarkable Beauty met the Eye. The Sun was peeping from behind a rolling sweep of Field and Forest Gray and Brown with autumn tints which Here and there were whitened by the Frost. Its rays tinged the water a deep Rose color through which the propeller left a track of frosty foam like a Broad band of Silver lace work on a Robe of Satin. Both the Kent and Queen Annex a shores dotted with neat Aud Thrifty looking farm houses descended in the Sun lit slopes to the River presenting a picture of Rural loveliness and quiet to which the exceeding purity and brilliancy of the atmosphere Lent an indescribable Charm. Chestertown has the great advantage into into picturesqueness of the Fine water front of Chester River which besides adding greatly to its attractions affords Many opportunities for promoting its business development. And the town seems As it were to have a natural Affinity for the River. Its oldest Street is appropriately named water or front Street and follows the gentle trend of the Shore. Here Are to be seen the older and quainter houses with their pleasant River gardens and it is not difficult Toton Juneup scenes from bygone Days and to imagine them peopled with the quaint a worthies of the colonial Era in knee breeches and powdered wigs escorting their Dames or sweethearts to the water Side or strolling along the quiet lanes which run out into the country one of them Over a quaint arched Bridge of Brick much of the picturesqueness of the place however is t eing obscured and crowded out of sight bythe encroachments of modern Progress and Enterprise. During the past eight or ten years Chestertown has been growing rapidly not Only in territorial extent but in volume of business. It now claims to be the third town in population in the Eastern Shore counties and evidences of development Are to be seen on every hand. It has a Fine methodist episcopal Church of Brick Ana a commodious Catholic Church also of Brick of recent construction and the venerable episcopal Church erected in 1768, has recently been repaired and improved. The court House is a substantial Brick Structure. Erected la 1860, and near by is a new and costly jail. A handsome town Hail of Brick the Enterprise of a private citizen or. Stam is in process of construction and when finished will be an important acquisition to the town. A planing Mill and Straw Board paper factory give employment to a number of bands and a Large Trade in lumber Coal and fertilizers is carried on. The Bank is referred to in terns of Pride by the business men As one of the flourishing institutions of the town but there is thought to be business enough to justify Competition. The town has an abundant water Supply and Good fire apparatus and in Short combines exceptional advantages As a place of residence with Fine business opportunities As the Centre of Rade for Kent county one of the most Thrifty progressive and flourishing counties in the state. Continued interest in the trial evidence for the defense. Special dispatch to the Baltimore sub. Cumberland my.

Although today was the ninth of the trial the interest in it by the Public has not lessened the attendance if anything being increased. The defense continued and examined twelve witnesses.

The prisoners appear in Good health and spirits and deeply interested in the proceedings. The jury Are in Good health Aud pass the hours of confinement at their hotel in various amusements. The trial has absorbed Public interest and Little else is talked of. The testimony offered today by the defense was As follows Owen Lordan jr., testified that he stood about two feet from the lockup door when the trouble occurred. John White James himself and Joseph Naughton were with me heard the door broken in and heard a Man come to the door and Call for help Toloe think the second time he called for a More then two or three men came out pulling a rope. Heard a splash and saw something in the water. Supposed it was Johnson a body. John White stood with one hand on Bissett a shoulder and the other on mine. The Man who called for help was not Dris Coll. Malone and Tim White were not among the parties who brought the body out.

Went into the cell after the occurrence in the evening and saw a broken chair a two Pound weight and a Slouch hat with tolerably stiff rim. The hat shown by state was not the one.

Correspondence of the Baltimore Hanover Germany oct. 24.�?there Are Many interesting places to visit in the Vicinity of Hanover some of which were previously described in this correspondence. The City of Nienburg of the Banks of the Weser is situated in a Northwest direction. In former times it was a fortified town and some of the fortifications remain to this Day. It stood several sieges in the reign of Charlemagne and the last one in the beginning of this Century by the French under Napoleon. One of the churches in Nienburg and Many in vill Ges in the surrounding country Date Back to the year 700 a. D., and Are shown to strangers by the Sexton or Parish clerk who never fails to explain toe queer carvings representing episodes of Bible history and the names of the carved wooden images of saints and Bishops the first Christian missionaries to the old Teutons. The lately renovated Church in the Village of Buchen is the largest and most noteworthy As regards painted windows and inlaid Marble floors and is visited by great Many strangers and declared by them to be real works of Art and Well Worth seeing. A Book of registry kept in the Sacristy contains the names of Many people of High rank and renown. After passing through the City of Bremen i took the Road Westward through the gland duchy of Oldenburg. This country seemed the most Barren and unproductive so far travelled through id Tea led by the Low Straw roofed farm buildings. Still Tho Farmers Are a Hardy industrious and frugal race. Buckwheat and Oats Are the Only cereals grown in most of the districts and fir Trees the Only Timber. On crossing the line into the province of Ost Friesland the country shows a different appearance. The Meadows Are full of cattle Aud wheat Rye and Barley grow in abundance and Are exported to England As Well As Bulter Aud cheese the principal products of the country. Mostly in vessels owned by the Farmers themselves. The cities of Leer and Emden on the navigable River Ems Are flourishing places of Trade. Canals Cross the country in All directions mostly for the transportation of turf the almost Only fuel used by the inhabitants. It is even used in locomotives foundries and factories. There Are live navigation schools in this province All Well attended but mostly in the Winter when the coasting vessels Are Laid up and the seamen at Home the most frequented one is the Royal navigation school at the Village of Fimmel where in 1853 your correspondent Learned the Art of navigation. This place in particular i took Delight in visiting to renew old acquaintances. The Ostrie Abmd coast la lined with Small Low islands and All of them contain sea bathing establishments. Communication with the Mainland and among the Island is had by steamers belonging to several companies. Those steamers do a thriving passenger Trade during the season which lasts from june till october. The most prominent establishment is on the Island of no Derney which is usually reached by Steamer from the Coy of Norden. The late King of Hanover used to have a residence on the Island and to spend the season there but his Palace is now converted into a lodging House for bathing guests. No Derney is the Long Branch of the German Ocean and the once Small fishing Village deserves the name of a City during the season. A the count of Knyphausen owns a Magn Lyl cent Villa on the Island and be hoists his own Flag which privilege he is entitled to by accidentally being a Sovereign Prince though in name Only. At the sequestration of the Little German principalities in Isis after the Battle of Waterloo this one was overlooked on account of its Small size. During the danish blockade in 1848 and 1849 the count derived a considerable income from allowing German vessels to carry his Flag. A yellow Standard with a lion rampant which exempted them from seizure by danish cruisers. The system of bathing is rather different from the bathing in american watering places. There is a ladies Beach and a gentlemen a Beach out of sight of each other by a Sharp Point of the coast. No gentleman is allowed to promenade on the ladies Beach during bathing hours when a red Flag is hoisted on a very tall Flag staff. Notices to that effect Are posted ail Over the place and a heavy penalty exacted for contravention. The whole establishment is under the control of a Royal bathing commissioner who is an officer of High rank and Bolds Sway Over the Island. There is no news per published and ail advertising such As Steamboat excursions to other by Public criers who ring a Heil before they commence to shout Ivan. First Maryland infantry.

Subsequently other companies were raised by j. Barren Crane James r. Herbert. John w. Torsch Joseph l. Mcaleer Andrew j. Gwinn and w. W. G dds Borough. In september 1862, the respective companies were organized into a battalion with James r. Herbert As major. In january 1863.

A to visit president Robert Garrett of the Baltimore Sod Ohio to the interest of having a Southern Extension of its lines built through that Section of Western North Carolina bad a conference yesterday with or. Garrett Sod subsequently they called upon mayor Hodges. The committee we re colonel Thaddeus Coleman a Railroad Engineer of Western North Carolina Captain Nathaniel Atkinson editor of a monthly Magazine. A the land of the sky a and in extensive porn Logist and t. I. Van Gilder a wholesale hardware merchant of Asheville. They were accompanied by or. W. Beall of Asie Ville. They saw or. G Brett and first Vic president Samuel Spencer at the Railroad Central building and bad a cordial reception and an interesting interview. The advantage of having the Valley Road of the Baltimore and Ohio extended through Cranberry Mitchell county n. C., with its Ore deposits and by Way of Asheville on to Birmingham ala., was presented by the committee. President Garrett said his comps y is open to the fullest consideration of the opportunities for an Extension of a read through Wes pm North Carolina and while there could be no definite statement As to the pure aes of bus company until the project set Forth bythe committee had assumed tangible shape he would be always pleased to communicate with them. The committee promised material Aid to the project from the counties of Western North Carolina which would be relied upon to raise from $500,000 to $1.000,000. Or. Garrett said he thought it was an Enterprise that hould also be helped along by Baltimore capitalists and business men As Well As by the Bai to More and Ohio. After a very free interchange of views with the Baltimore and Ohio officers the conference was adjourned Aud the North Carolina committee waited upon mayor Hodges at the City Hall in company with sex mayor Hama of Aiken s. They had a lengthy interview with the mayor. Or. Hodges said a i have always been in favor of increased and More convenient Railroad facilities with the states in the South and i have openly declared on several Public occasions that if the Early projectors of the Railroad system of Baltimore had turned their attention towards the South instead of towards the Central West the Northwest and Southwest that the population and Trade of Baltimore today would of Well nigh double in both respects. I admit that it was a most unfortunate mistake As the people of the South were always As they Are now in Complete sympathy with Baltimore and would Deal Here More extensively than they do if they bad More encouragement id the Way of Railroad facilities. I believe that the South is destined to become the great Al Dorado of the United states that it la almost inexhaustible la agriculture and Mineral resources and it is a prize worthy perhaps of our highest efforts to obtain something like leadership in the control of its productive resources. The people of Baltimore have been most sorely afflicted by tosses in their Railroad investments Aal have recently ascertained by careful investigation that our losses in that direction bad exceeded $10,060,000. Hence the people Are not in a favourable Frame of mind to enter with much spirit at least into any new enterprises involving financial responsibilities. Nothing Short of a scheme assuring the most prosperous results could induce them i think to embark in any new Railroad Enterprise. This City Bas always found it extremely difficult to get at the Bottom facts of such projects. Railroading is now essentially a private business and must be undertaken with any Hope of Success by Meo Aud corporations that understand it. I refer you Geo Liemeo. To the president of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad coins any and it your projects Are As excellent As you believe they Are that company might be willing to join you in carrying out your plans. It is Well known that the Baltimore Aud Ohio company undertook some years ago to carry out a Railroad plan looking to far reaching Southern connections by the Way of the Valley of Virginia Aud the City of Baltimore approving of the project subscribed one million dollars to it. Perhaps the Baltimore and Ohio company might be induced to revive the scheme in connection with he com in Unitt is of North Carolina which you represent a the gentlemen left the City Hall apparently much pleased with their interview with mayor Hodges. Captain Atkinson Aud colonel Coleman will remain in la Ai Timora today and expect to meet or. John m. Ito Luton president of the Seaboard air line Railroad system which is extending its Carolina Central Road to Rutherford Only 50 mites from Asheville. I Apt. Atkinson says that Asheville Aith its8,u0upopulation,is doubling in people and in Leaito every three or four years. That Section has three railroads but All Are owned by the Richmond and Danville Aud they want Railroad Competition As a necessity. Tho statement thai the Baltimore and Ohio proposes to extend it due to Birmingham created a sensation in Western North Carolina and it oui in i dated in a general meeting at Asheville and the appointment of the committee to have an interview with president Garrett the Iron Ore Deposit at Cranberry on the route of Tho Extension is stated by experts to be Rich and Well nigh inexhaustible. The Road would through the Beautiful Mountain Region of Western North Carolina on the elevated plateau for several Hundred Miles to which the ascents would not require heavy graces. It is estimated that the grading could be done for $5,000 to $8.000 per mile. The Timber Iron ores and other minerals Are of great value and await the coming of Railroad facilities to develop them. Some 40,000 people visit Asheville each year for pleasure health and business and Western North Carolina is widely known for its Good climate and grand scenery. From Salem va., to Asheville an acceptable Railroad route can be secured and the Rich country it would penetrate is awaiting to be possessed by a Railroad system the people to k to As their metropolitan City and the prize is within reach of the Baltimore and Ohio upon most favourable terms. It will not be a Long time before some Railroad corporation will occupy this territory. It is the wish of the Western North carolinians that an Engineer of the Baltimore and Ohio shall be seat Over the route with col. Coleman. The result of their interview with president Garrett May b a summed up first thai the Baltimore and Ohio is Friendly to a proposition for Extension in that direction but has As yet no fixed policy or plans that it is prepared to make known second that substantial sympathy from Baltimore is an important consideration with they amp i read company in discussing the question and third that the people of a extern North Carolina Promise material Aid to the extent of their ability in furtherance of the Enterprise. The following article in this connection has been sent to the Sun a much Bas been written about the trans Montane Section of North car Lima its mountains it Mineral wealth Etc., but Alt in a general Way. Its possibilities for the future have not however been presented in my judgment in that form which the facts warrant. The Topography of the great elongated Basin which lies Between the Blue Ridge and the great Smoky Mountain Chain Bas not been generally studied and does not therefore. Seem to be Well understood outside of the state Aud Tor that matter generally in the state. This Basin begins about Cranberry in Mitchell county widens out and extends southwestward into Georgia. The streams which water this Basin Cross it with alternating transverse ridges dividing it into a succession of valleys and table lands. These transverse ridges have Low gaps so that the passage from one Valley to another is comparatively easy. Indeed there is Here presented a line from Northeast to Southwest for some great Railroad trunk with no very serious obstacles in the Way. Commencing at Cranberry and following the Valley of North toe River to its Junction with South toe and up that Stream a mile or so to the Mouth of Crabtree thence up that Stream to Burnsville where a Cut of forty feet or less will put you on the Waters of Caney River then five Miles to the Mouth of Bald Creek and up that to the Ivy where the first obstacle is met with and engineers say this is by to Means serious. Through this the line follows Little Ivy for ten or twelve Miles to it Junction with a big across this Stream there is a Fine plateau to Asheville. A glance at the map will show you that this is an exceptionally direct line for the whole length of it. Then to follow the rare general direction Southwest the line will Lead to Waynesville to Balsam and to the town of Webster in Jackson county. Then the line keeping the general direction after creasing the Tuckasegee at Webster follows the Savannah Creek to the foot of the Cowee Mountain where a Tunnel of moderate dimensions will be necessary. This line will put you to Franklin Only 20 Miles from Webster and in the Beautiful Tennessee Valley. The Rabun in the Blue Ridge is Nineteen Miles South of Franklin. This is a very remarkable having a plateau of East gradients on the South Side As Well As on Tho North Side. The Grade following the Tennessee River which beads in the is from Franklin to the highest Point in the about seven feet to the mile. There Are in did elegant farms in the . From the Down to Clayton to Rabun county ga., a distance of three Miles the average Grade is about fifty two feet to the mile. From Franklin to Clayton is the Only material divergence from a Southwest direction on the whole from Cranberry to this Point. Here the line resumes its general direction with Only a possible Tunnel of a few Hundred feet. Thence from Clayton to Lacoochee thence to Cleveland leather Ford on the Chestatee a few Miles from Dahlonega. And crossing a Low Ridge within a mile and a half or two Miles you reach the Etawah Valley one of the finest and most productive valleys in then the line leads Down that Valley to Canton and still Down to Cartersville or near there and if desirable directly on to Rockmart where Are the most it Sis easy to reach from this Point the line leading to Birmingham Alabama. A i Arn familiar with the country along All the Points designated having passed Over toe whole of it in Mineral researches. It seems to me to be the natural line from Cranberry to Birmingham and in Point of feasibility and practicability it has no equal through a Mountain Region. It is indeed wonderful and As we shall see a Wise provision for the arts and civilization. A the Mineral resources along this line Are very great when we come to aggregate them and Are such As must make a very Large contribution to the diversified industries of the country whenever rates can be obtained that will justify their removal. Cranberry is known already As an extraordinary locality of magnetic Iron. There Are other localities of the same material in Mitchell county that will be developed by a railway along the designated line. Besides this. Mitchell is Rich in Mica and has also Hematite and Asbestos. Then in Yancy there Are valuable Mica mines and besides this Chrome magnetic Iron corundum and plumbago As leading minerals. The portion of Madison through which this line runs has approximately near Magnet in Iron. Corundum Chrome Albite and Asbestos a chief minerals. Buncombe has Mica magnetite and Granite Etc. In Haywood there is corundum magnetic Iron. Massive pyrite Mica Etc. Jackson has Chrome Nickel Mica corundum manganese Fine Granite Asbestos Copper Superior kaolin a. Mab Oil has Mica magnetic Iron manganese Asbestos and the most productive corundum mines on the continent. Near Robin there is much Granite. Beyond tile line i have marked out traverses the great Georgia Gold zone to Canton a along which Are be Mantle and Limonite Iron ores and near Dahlonega magnetic Iron. I have Only mentioned a few of the leading mine rain such a enter immediately into the industries and Commerce of the times. It might be Well to state also that in Jackson county there in localities or quarts suitable Tor the manufacture of Flint Glass. A the great body of the timbales of this motion Baa aet yet Bena touched. Much of the Walnut and Cherry has been taken oat St great cd a by Whf Fong end it High freight rates. But there is much Poplar White Oak Black Oak Chestnut Iron White and red Hick Ory Locust Dogwood Sou Wood end especially in Haywood Cucumber Beech Balsam 6co. Whenever we can have suitable Cates these timbers will be in demand. A there is no country better adapted to Dairying purposes than this Mountain Section. It abounds in Fine Springs and produces Dover Orchard grass Timothy and red too Well and the climatic temperature to both summer and Winter is Singu arly adapted to the handling of Dairy products. A with a system or competitive lines there Are great Doss i ides for divers if d manufacturing industries because of the wonderful grouping of diversified material for instance the Chrome Ore would be brought together at Asheville and works established therefor the manufacture of dichromate of Potash. It would be cheaper to ship the Potash in than to ship the Ore out. Then again pottery works Here would be easily supplied with kaolin Aud feldspar and it seems to me wares made Bere As cheaply As anywhere else. I might in like manner Point out other enterprises equally feasible but a business mind will readily Supply this omission. I cannot however omit to mention one More resource Aud that is the of parity of this whole plateau As it extends into Georgia for fruit production. Or is a Marvol that when we consider the general neglect of Orchard culture we produce Anjos having scarcely a rival anywhere. Apple production will. As population increases and the country develops become an i Nemense and profitable lad Stry. Quot i have confined myself to this writing to fact and to a few of the Mort salient Points in this country of wonderful topographical reliefs and mountains having a soil to their very summits Rich and productive. Indeed some of the Pike Road gaps Ai an Altitude of 4.000 feet have the Road cuts through red Clay Beds. And it is not to be wondered at that these mountains Are covered to their summits with heavy forests. There Are Sulphur and Iron and Mugnes Lan Waters ail along this line which will with first class Railroad facilities assure the gathering of the million to this Region of grandeur and untold possibilities. Last but not least. I mention the fact that while the country All along the great line i have pointed out is abundantly watered there Are my Large streams to be bridged the French Broad at Asheville being the largest. Nearly All the other streams can be crossed with a single Span. A i have in the preceding statements Only aimed to give information without magnifying anything and i believe that any person looking Over the ground with an impartial Eye would say the half has not been told. A pc. Maryland blooded horses. Development in Breeding something about drives and other matters. I reported for the Baltimore the racing season which is now drawing to close has been one that has afforded the admirers of horses particularly Good sport. While the races by thoroughbreds in Maryland have been up to the Standard the races Tor trotting horses have been particularly Superior to that of previous seasons. One of the reasons Fory his lies in the fact that fanciers of Trotters have come to the conclusion that the training of catch Colts is an Uncertain undertaking and that although a thoroughbred May not produce the desired article for sulky work. There k nevertheless u certain infusion of mat Stock that does and thut blood docs and will Tell in the Trotter As Well As in the runner. Even after close and judicious judgment the Breeding of Trotters is an uncertainty. There Are in Maryland today some remarkably Fine Brood marcs whose get have already proved Aud there is hardly a week but what there Are fresh from other states of finely Mary of them being Young double wedding. And stallions their Worth that passes importations bred Stock Siers. New trotting tracks have been built during the seas a and in All the counties of the state efforts Are being made to have the driving roads put in condition for training and speeding. The Competition is so great that it costs now to Reed a Well bred Trotter with a record in the thirties no Mote Titan it did in previous years an Ordinary mover an it is hard to find a farm in the Mali but what the proprietor will Point out to you horses giving you their Pedigree and at the same time Imort to you the information that with proper handling they would make Trotters. To the agricultural society is due the credit for having Given a decided Boom to me sport and a their Well merited Success will doubtless instigate them to further efforts next season will place film too nearer on a with or Emir a in the grand circuit. Timonium. Bel sir. Easton Frederick and other county fairs a so made Good showings As regards Quality and ability of the Stock competing in their races while the herring run and Halstead s driving Park tracks have Given numerous Well contested races in Many of which remarkably Good time was made. These races have been Well attended but if the proprietors and others interested in trotting races will make Ait events up and up the Best horse to win and straighten out All approaches to crooked work they will soon discover that the nubile arc More infatuated with the sport than they suppose and the Gate receipts will increase rapidly. Great improvement has been made this season in tin regard but still much remains to be done to insure the fact that All races will be Bonteen in contested. The roaa8 around Baltimore City do not afford much facility for speeding horses nor in fact for Ordinary driving. While the surrounding country a a picturesque and Well repays one who visits it the bad Condito iof the roadbed combined with the Jolt Over Baltimore so Limestone deters Many who would otherwise enjoy Carriage Riding. The Washington Frederick. Edmondson Avenue the Liberty Franklin Hookstown Pamlico fails. Charies Street Avenue Harford and Belair roads Are Seldom in condition for pleasant Riding. On Many of these roads Are Toni Gutta where Tho tax on vehicles is very Large and this fact alone should incite the Road supervisors to urge this improvement of the roadbed. The roads leading from the Eastern Section Are Many of them built of Oyster shells. While this makes a very level and pleasant Road to drive on. It is somewhat too hard to Speed horses on besides the tact that the Al Neil crushed Shell is damaging to finely Oam Ted vehicles. From a financial standpoint it would the county to put the roads in proper condition As besides the toll tax pleasure Drivers on the roads As a Rule a Pend Money in the county a certain pro rata of which goes to by internal Revenue tax. T Ruid Hill Park Aff or is the pleasantest drives near Baltimore but the Park commissioners naturally Cater to the larger number of their visitors who prefer to be on the Side of safety and adopt the six male per hour Rule. This bars the owner of a flier. The Para commissioners should however adopt another Rule to Correct a Radical wrong that is practice daily on the drive around the Lake and other parts of the Park. There Are a number of bries who Wear on their horses Quarter to toe weights hand pullers and other paraphernalia used on Trotters thus misleading the innocent into believing that the Driver of the turnout which just passed them was sitting behind a Trotter when if some of them were put at the top of their Speed they would not be stopped by at Park police for breaking the sex mile per Bour Rule. There has been As much improvement in the manner of building stables in Baltimore for the accommodation of Carriage horses As there has been improvement in the Quality of the horses themselves. Many new private stables have been built besides several Fine stable adapted for livery horses. A few years ago a Baltimore livery stable consisted of a rough building with a number of Ordinary stalls and a Box stall or two which latter were utilized As hospitals in Case any horses were sick whereas now stables Are built and furnished in a style that is both elegant and expensive As much and often More care being devoted to ventilation and other sanitary considerations than is used in the building of dwelling houses. Instead of a single Box stall there Are quite a number of them in Rome of Toliese stables. Another Industry that has received quite a Boom of late years due to the increased interest in speedy hordes is the building of fight vehicles. While several new manufactories of carriages have been started of late years Many of those who were previously in the business have turned their attention to work of Light build and easy running. Single and double seat buggies Are made now of a weight that is but Little greater than t hat of the old style of Skeleton Wagon and there is not a lightweight Wagon made in the country that is Superior to durability and finish to the Baltimore made wagons. The single seat buggy known by the ladies As the selfish buggy Are now built with tops and although they weigh but Little they Are gotten up so neatly that the gentleman Driver can pass through the City without attracting attention and when he reaches a get of piece of Road can Speed his horse wet out detriment. Whereas the old style of buggy weighing from 300 to 400 pounds was Cen Ain to shorten the gait of a horse when seeded. Track and Road sullies Are also attracting particular attention of our Home builders and the display of these wagons at our fairs this fall was in every respect an improvement on that of last season and a Baltimore made Skeleton Road or track sulky now commands As Good a p ice and is in every Way equal to those manufactured anywhere. Harness particularly adapted to speedy horses has also been improved upon by our manufacturers. It will thus be seen by the diversity of interest and the amount of labor and capital utilized that trotting racing is not a Idle sport but one of profit. There Are a larger number of horses in training this year than Ever before in Maryland and next season will doubtless bring before the Public a class of horses the like of which never were seen in this state. Fox Hunting. Reported for the Baltimore 8un.l Over one Hundred ladies and gentlemen were present yesterday at Bellevue Baltimore county the country residence of or. Thomas c.

Gen. Sheridan a report. And the u. 8. Army recommendations suggestions. From the annual report of Lieut general Sheridan just submitted to the Secretary of War it appears that at the Date of the last returns the army of the United states consisted of 2,103 officers and 23,948 men. Attention is called in the report to the fortification of the Atlantic seaports and to the military operations of the year. A Large part of the report is devoted to the Consi iteration of the Indian question and to the Campaign against Geronimo. Referring to the death of Captain Crawford Gen. Sheridan expresses Tho opinion that but for his loss capt Crawford would speedily have drought hostilities to a close. Touching the Relief of general Crook and his replacement by Gen. Miles. Gen. Sheridan says it grew out of the fact that Gen. Crook seemed wedded to the policy of operating almost exclusively with Indian scouts and his Poller could not Well be changed without his removal to another Field. The report states that the arrest of the Chiricahua indians and their removal to Florida had been ordered by the president notwithstanding the Obj it Orion of Gen. Miles that such action would necessitate a War of extermination against Tho Hostiles then in Mexico. The lieutenant Geu Cral Renews his recommendation touching the allotment of the lands of the indians in severally the a ale of their surplus lands and the creation of a Trust fund from the Money realized the interest to be used for the support of the indians. He says on this Point a the Indian reservation of the United states contain a it it 200,000 Square Miles and their population is about 260.000. Twenty six thousand Square Miles would locate each family upon a half Section of land leaving a surplus of about 170,000 Square Miles which according to the plan i have a reposed would produce annually. $4,480.000. His amount exceeds by $660,000 the entire sum appropriated for the payment of their annuities sad for their subsistence and Gen. Sheridan suggests that Congress open the retired list re the extent of embracing officers now excluded from it for want of vacancies. There is s Gratifying decrease in the number of army desertions during the fiscal year which ended june 30 lat. The annual report of the adjutant general which is now being prepared will show that Only 1,800 desertions were noted during the entire year against 3.100 id 1885 Aud 3,600 in 1884. General drum Binky the decrease is largely due to the amendment to the regulations made last fall. By which enlisted men Are not to be recorded As deserters until ten Days after their disappearance. A Soldier will frequently take a vacation without leave to Induisi in a spree but when sobered up he would like to return to Bis company if not for fear of trial by court martial for desertion. The amendment remedies this evil. The Soldier is of course punished for taking leave but the charge is a absent without leave a and the sentence can Only extend to imprisonment. Still another cause for the falling off in the number of desertions is the strict manner in which the rules governing the selection of recruits Bas been enforced a better class of men being secured thereby. The new retirement Law also offers a Strong inducement to the men to remain in the service. An army officer in the inspector general a department says in his opinion the Sec reset in the number of desertions is due the the decrease in the wages paid for labor in the West. At one time there a a great demand Tor labourers at High wages. This is not the a we now. There Are plenty of Mon in the West to take care of every Branch of Industry.
