fining from Matanzas to Bemba, a distance of 35 miles, a
very valuable road, and of immense importance to the Bay

direct junction with that road at Matanzas, traversing a
district rich in sugar produce; and being connected at
13einba with the Cardenas and Jucaro Railroad, becomes a
section of the central road of the island, which will very
B,ll.ortly reach Villa Clara by the completion of the Car-
itas and Jucaro Railroad.
