mewed on lion ay, and we have ao doubt that it will be
curled through with all expedition. The terms on which it
has been contracted for are most advautageous to the sou
paay, and when finished it will be a great conuoiencer to the
rabbi, from its war proximity to the cent,, and business
parts of the town. It is intended to raise the screen wall
along the aide of the river to an elevation of eight lest above
the present road, the extended railway having to be con-
structed upon the slob outside of it.—Londonderry Standard.

viewing the line purely u an agricultural undertaking,
offers a fair prospect of a moderate return to the shareholders,
