The Wilmington Journal states that mail
coaches will be placed upon the line Of the
Wilmington aud Manchester Rai,road in or
der to form connection Of said road early in
January. This will do Jay with the outside
communication by means of steamboat be.
tween Wilmington and Charleston. and which
in boisterons weather is most prolific cause
Of failure TO connect. The link between Wash
ing,on and Aqua Creek and that between
Montgomery and Mobile will then be the only
breaks in the line Of railroad communication
from Boston to New Orleans.
