TIE Milwaukee and Horizon Railroad Company VIII
open its road to Beris Monday next, 70 miles rom
Ni,x aukee and ~ from HORIZON. This will complete
the fret division of the Company's road. Next
Wednesday the event is to be celsbrSted az berhn.
The second division is under contract ard IN course OF
construction 90 miles further to the Wisconsin hVer
This COMPANY owns $500 600 worth of lands, hed IN
fee simple of which the proceeds are to be USED In
constructing the road.
In consequence of the inpedments which the Com-
mon Council Of Brooklyn seems disposed 10 throw III
the way of the Long leland Railroad Company con-
tnure the use of seaT through Atlantic street 70 the
South Ferry strenuous efforts are being mace 70 cnsoge
the western terminus Of the road to Hunters font.
Only about four and half miles of road would nave
t. be built to connect the Long Island and Flushng
Railroads; and as the Flushing Railroad will probably
be sold in the course of three months by virtue OF
NOR: gage bond, in accordance with an application
which has already been made to that effect, and as
the ease of the Brooklyn and Jamaica Railroad for
some time held by the Long Island Railroad Company
has expired is thought that the latter will try to
purchase the Flushing Road at the time OF pubic
sale in case satisfactory arrangement cannot De en-
tered into with the bond and stockholders OF the last
named road prior to that period, and then connect II
with their own road, either at Jamaica or Brushvlue-
moot probably at jamaica as no important village
would then be excluded from the advantages OF dire't
and expeditions communication with the city
Should the second bond holders Of the Flushing Road
contest the claims of the first bond holders as 1t Is ex-
pected they intend to do, some delay may possibly be
occaoned in the sale of the road and union with the
Long Island Road; but it is confidently believed that
an amcabe understanding will be brought about be-
tween the first and second bond holders go as not
teree with the plan suggested for uniting the interests
of the two roads.
Hunte;'s Point is considered by many to possess
advantages over South Brooklyn as the western
terminus Of the Long Island Railroad in several re-
.psots for in addition to the steamboat. connection
with the city at Peck clip ferry will be established
early in the Spring between Hunters Point and Thir-
ty. fourth street. New. York while the Brooklyn and
Greerport cars and stages afford ample accOmmoda-
tions for reaching any point of GreeDpoint Williams
burgh Brooklyn or of crossing by ferry to Tenth
Houston Grand or Fulton streets, James slip or Peck
slip, New-York at least possible expense or ncon-
yeDiepce.
