New lonk Il ERIE X. r. As this
is the season when hundreds Of our citizens
are going East on business, We can render
them no better service than by pointing ut
the shortest, quickest, and easie,, route Of
travel. In going BY the Ere r. T., they
save a number OF hours time. This is one
of the first considerations with the ,rav. J.
Ter. They also have plenty Of room in the
broad cars Of this road, where the weary
can recl,ne with comfort. Being squeezed
is undesirable in a railroad car, and tn,
Erie cars are 80 constructed that none cal
complain in this respect. After once II.
