engagements look to the opening of the road to
Jackson's river by the LIST Of July. Here the ter
minus of the road connects with good turnpike
running from Covington down the valley of the

At this point the Central Railroad may be con-
sidered as being brought into practical connection
with the fine col nties of Greenbricr and Monroe
thirty eight miles from Lewisburg, the county seat
of Greenbrer twenty four miles only from the
White Sulphur Springs thirty miles from tie
Sweet Springs, and about forty five miles from
Union, the county seat of Monroe.
After the LIST Of July merit, the cities Of Richmond
Petersburg Washington and Baltimore aoiH be 0Htin
daysrid ofthe White Sulphur and Soest Springsi
The Central Railroad Company will then put the
visitor within few hours ride of his destination
by O'Clock in the evening of the same day he
leaves either of those cities.
Measures are on foot, with prospect CT
speedy success, to establish telegraph line be-
tween Richmond and Staunton. This mighty
agent is all that is wanted to complete lasting
and perfect connection between Richmond and the
Valley of Virginia. The merchants of this city
cannot spend few thousand dollars more advan-
tageously than in establishing teiegraphic commu-
nication with Stanton.
1t will thus be seen that the grand Central Rails
road Is going ahead In splendid style, and is
doing its part to make Virginia great and pros
porous and zone and indivisible"
