TIE RAILROAD.

On one week from next Taesday 1.-The
stockholders Of the Rock Island and Lasalle
Railroad are requested TO meet at Cam
bridge H., for the purpose Of organizing.
This has the appearance Of snbstansiablllty
aud shows what's people can do when they
resolve. they Will do. A letter has been re-
ceived By Judge Gran, the present week
stating that some gentlemen from the east
will visit this place in a few days tor the
purpose Of ascertaining if contract can be
IN t. r. complete The entire Road from the
commencement. They propose having !,
flushed and the locomotives putting within
twenty.four months. The importance Of
this Rad, its certain lacrativeness and
The probability Of its becoming Por-
ton of,hs National Railroad, are attracting
tie eyes Of The eastern capitalists and they
are ioaih 70 allow no favorable al orportu-
ni,v Of quickly doubling their moneys pass
without az effFl to improve it.. Some oil
those sto kholdors who calculate so largely
upon the dividend, will, no doubt, disparagc
thu idea Of letting the entire contract; but
ifit can be finished sooner thus, better
that this course he pursued.
