was over the Williamsport and Elmira, Sun
bury and Erie and the Northern Central Rail
Roads This is a lovely route with several
handsome towns, the pure and glltterlng wa
ters of several majestic rivers with their crys-
tai spring tributaries, fertile meadows graced
with natural beauty, and with many charm
ingly romantic glimpse to engage the traveller,
as the iron horse, with lightning speed, bears
him on. The scenery of a public thorough
fare as well as its speed, safety and comfort,
produces wonderful charm to travellers, if To-
vers of beauty and ornament
We will not needlessly dwell on the attrac-
tons nature has SO profusely strown along
this line to enhance its interests and delights,
but will come to very important feature, one
that has practical bearing upon the public.
1t is we'll understood that time, speed and dis
tance, are appreciated and valued, by the great
business public, as money. 1t is of conse-
quence, then to the people of southern, CEN
tral, northern and western New York nor
tbern Pennsylvania and Canada, to become
acquainted with new railroad route, about
to be opened, which will give them advanta-
ges over every rival one.
The Northern Central Railway, ZENUs BAR
NUM- President, and C.. G.. ADREoN, Superin-
tendent, commences at Sunbury, pleasantly
situated town at the terminus of the Sunbury
and Erie Railroad, and 1873 miles from the
City of Baltimore
The road will be completed to this point by
the middle OF June ensuing, when passengers
will have the benefit Of THROUGH Rail Route,
shortening the distance to the National Capt.
tol, about 100 miles LESS than by the Cata-
wissa and Reading Roads, and 204 miles less
than by New York City. 1t is expected that
the passenger who leaves this section of coun-
try, or who takes his seat in the Cars of the
Wiliamsport and Elmira Railroad, having
first possessed himself of a THROUGH ticket,
which he can do at any of the ticket Offices,
will be set down in the City of Baltimore in
the same space of time hat is required for q
trip to the City of New York. The connec-
tions of this Company with the Pennsylvania
and Lebanon Valley Railroad, being certain
and close, renders the Philadelphia passenger
confident and sure Of his arrival in due time
in that City and ahead Of all COMPETING routes,
and the connection with the Cumberland Val
ley Rail Road gives passengers for Carlisle,
Chambersburg, and all points on its line, the
superior advantage of arriving at their place
of destination without delay.
The Trains on this Road are under the di-
rect;on of gentlemanly and obliging Conduc
tors and all the appointments are such, as to
give general satisfaction to the traveller We
cannot too highly recommend this route to the
attention of travellers going Sonth, as offering
advantages, in lovely, romantic and natural
scenery, and in time and distance, far supe-
rior, over al other routes
A system of through tickets is in active
preparation to and from Buffalo, Niagara Falls
and cities and towns in Western New York
and Canada, to Baltimore, Washington, Nor
folk, Richmond, Petersburg and Charleston,
thereby presenting an additional induccment
to the traveller, as the great annoyance and
vexation cor Is'quent upon the frequent pur
chase of tickets is most happily obviated.-
Baggage also is intended to be CHECKED THEo,
