CATTAWISSA RAIh. ROAD.

The engineers, it is said, are relocating
the rail road between Cattawissa and Will
Transport. We should like to see every
road now contemplated made and we
have no doubt but that they all will be
nsade, in time. The best routes With easi-
est grades, will of course always be made
first, unless where there is heavy local
trade 10 be accommodated, such for instance
as tie extension of the Mine Hill road from
Poitssilie, &C., 10 Ashland and Shamokin.
From Suabury TO Wiliamsport, along the
Susqashanna, nature has provided route
for road that no art, ingenuity or device,
can prevent its adoption, and when made,
(Which wilI be before the others are pro-
perly comn" acrd,) it will defy all compe-
ttion for bu mess or profit.

sUSQUEIANNA RAIL ROAD.

From present appearances and judging
from the information we have received
from Baltimore, there can be no doubt but
the Rail Road from this place to Bridge
port, opposite Harrisburg, will be commen-
ced in a short time. In Union county, the
subscriptions, we understand, will amount
to 100000. With such spirit manifest
ed along the line, there can be no doubt,
but the whole road to Williamsport, will
soon be under contract.
