PROTECTED RAILROADS IN THE SOUTH.

PROJECTED RAILROADS in IHE SOUTH.
The Railroad Convention which assembled at
New Orleans week before last, to consider the best
plan of connecting New Orleans (by way of Jack
son, Mississippi with the great system Of railways
now under consideration and projected in the States
of Mississippi, Alabama, and Tennessee, decided
to make road from New Orleans along the banks
of the Mississippi river as far as Baton Rouge,
and thence diverge towards the State of Missis-
sippi.
This will give continuous line of railroad be-
tween the extreme points of about two hundred
miles in length, which is estimated to cost three
millions of dollars. A rival proposition was SUBJ
milted, proposing to run the road by way of Madi-
sonville, and to connect with New Orleans by a
steam ferry, the rejection Of which caused its friends
to withdraw from the Convention. The friends Of
the route adopted, composing large majority Of
the Convention, think that it will be carried out
speedily and successfully.
