this article one might suppose had chosen the wrong
paper to remark upon what the first glance would APP

edge that at Baltimore the Arrangements for transferring
person and proey IRON one line of TO another are
infinitely superior TO those OF any other city place on
any route OF travel in the country Instead OF being
compelled to employ hackney coach or cab to TRANSPORT
the passenger and his baggage from rort TO point at the
Baltimore depot we have only to step few feet from one

comfortably and safely located in new position, It has
been remarked by all traSellers--this convenient

that OF the railway companies between Washington
and Philadelphia has Al in contemplation to remove from
the present depot in Pratt street. 10 the terminus Of
the road, distance OF some two miles Oh course the
