PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY.
PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY, having an area of 500 square miles, is the northern county of one of the peninsulas on the western ahore of the Chesapeake. It is bounded by the Patuxent River on the east, Potomac River on the west, Montgomery and Howard Counties on the north, and Charles County on the south. It surrounds the eastern and north-eastern portions of the District of Columbia. No county in the State offers greater inducements to settlers. The Baltimore & Ohio and Baltimore & Potomac Railroads both pass directly through the county, and the main atem of the Baltimore & Potomac Railroad runs south through the fertile regions of the county, and the Southern Maryland & Point Lookout Railroad from Wash- ington direct to tide water, also passes across this county, thus giving every acre of land easy and near access to the markets of Baltimore, Washington and Alexandria. The soil is mostly light loam, (mixture of sand and clay,) some localities running into clay and others into sand, and peculiarly adapted to the cultivation of all kinds of marketing, fruits, grapes and dairy purposes. Owing to its locality vegetation is about two weeks earlier than the locality of Baltimore, a large portion of the county being high and rolling and above tide water. Swamps exempt it from malarial objection. It abounds in springs of delightful water. The principal products are tobacco, corn and wheat. This county in the past has been celebrated for its wealth and tone of society, having furnished the State with six of its Governors, viz .: Ogle,. two Bowies, Kent, Spring and Pratt. Owing to the abolition of slavery lands have deteriorated very much in value, about 50 per cent. of anti-bellum prices, and can be purchased at from $15 to $50 per acre, from half an hour to two hours of the three markets above named.
