Republican neighborinj County of Adams is steadily progressing in her iinprovcnients, as if there had been no financial revulsion.

The citizens arc now rapidly approaching tho completion of their Railroad to Gettysburg, at. which point the road now under progress of con-truction will connect with the unfinished portion nf the State woi-v, extending to the top of the South mountain, at tho Maryland line. The completion of their Railroad to Get tysburg will tend greatly to enhance the value of those large tracts of fine chesnut and other timber lands with which the South a i abounds, and which can now be bouzht at very low prices. Chesnut Timber land, wheueasy of access, must now be very valuable, especially to the farmers in the interior and lower end of that County, and the completion of the Railroad to Gettysburg, even, will increase their means of access to the a i by furnishing them with a cheap and convenient means of transportation to their neighborhood, for rails, lumber, from Gettysburg, nt which point they can be readily delivered by wncons.

While the Appropriation bill was pending in the House, Mr. Calhoun, of Armstrong, moved, as an additional provision, that hereafter each member of the Legislature receive $700, and jnileagc, in view of the present compensation. AVc find (page J53 of the Journal), that this motion was igrecd to a call of tltc yeas and Mr. Will was not sufficiently op- xiscd to this increase of pay, even to ask a yea and nay vote on the proposition.

On referring to the Journal of the House we learn that Mr. WILL voted against the License law passed by the last Legislature.

On final passage of the bill (recorded on pages 899--900) we find that Mr. Will was one of the 81 who voted against the bill. There were 50 in favor of it. On this occasion, he and Mr. Kill, of Franklin, voted on opposite sides--the only instance, we believe, during the session.

The Democracy of this County, we have always understood, was favorable to a repeal of the former restrictive law. The re-nomination of Mr. Will, therefore, who voted for its continuance, seems rather surprising. They were probably not aware of this vote We are not censuring Mr. W.
