The Baltimore American, in speaking Of the
completion Of that part Of the Baltimore and Ohio
Rail Road which runs through the City, says
But while the introduction of the
Road into the city, and it's connection
with tide water, have been advancing
80 steadily, the attention of the Com
pany has not been withdraw n from the
more distant parts Of the line. From
the state Of the werk on the Third,
Fourth and Fifth Divisions, and the
progress daily making, we are enabled
TO repeat the gratifying assurance that
the entire line Of RaiI-road, common
cling At the Port Of Baltimore and ex.
tending to the city Of Frederick, and
the Potomac River at the Point OF
Rocks. will be opened and in operation
before the expiration of the present
year. We content ourselves with the
simple annuDciation Of this fact. SO
truly gratifying 20 the citizens at large
ne less than to the immediate patrons
OF this noble enterprise. A short time
only can elapse before we shall be able
to speak Of practical evidences Of the
benefits which . continuous Rail road
Of seventy miles in extent will confer
on thIs community. The magnitude
OF these benefits II would not be easy
to estimate, were we inclined to the
task, bat that they will fully come up
60 the calculation Of the most sanguine
among Us, we have no hesitation to
assert.
