We have intelligence OF the most reliable
character that the Northern Central Railway
Company will complete their road to Sunbury
in ten days from this time. At this point
connection will be had with the Sunbury and
Erie road, which road connects with the VIII
Transport and Elmira road at Williamsport,
completing the great North and South road
between this city and Lake Erie. We also
learn that there are now ia progress, and
nearly completed, arrangements for running
trains between this city, Buffalo and Niagara
Falls under time schedule which will not
consume over sixteen hours between the
points mentioned. The advantages in the
saving Of time and cost Of fare to the travel
ing public will be apparent when this route is
compared with those now requested, besides
great facilities will be rendered the business
and commerce Of the country in the trans
portaton of the mails through the instrument
iality of this chain Of railway, the completion
of which has been looked for with much aDx.
iety.
The Post Office Department, alive to the
Importance of direct and central railway
routes for the safe and regular transportation
Of the mails, has distinguished its manage
ment by tho perfection of an arrangement
which is to 60 into operation on the lst D
July, for the transportation OF the grea'
southern mail, with the central roads now
completed through the States OF Virgins
and Tennessee and We have reason to hope
the Department will avail itself of the adyan
tages which will be afforded by the compile
| tion of the Northern Central road TO Sunbury
, and will make similar arrangements with the
lines forming this route for speedy and reg
ular transportation Of the mails between th'
| national capitol and the North and North
west. The route in question is not only de
stined to be one Of great industrial and com
mercial Importance, but also Of rapid ant
agreeable travel to the pleasure.seeker ant

quite heavy at this place we believe no ma

may have been sustained by the crops. Oar

The New Orleans Picayune has full details
Of the attack by Zuloaga's forces on !he city
Of Tobasco.
The city was bombarded from the 9th Of
April to the 10th inst. The houses suffered
very much from the fire Of both parties, and
the American Consuls house especially,
which was in a right line between them. Mr..
Johnston, however, afforded what protection
he could to oil who asked it Of him, and he
had at least some three hundred women and
children at the Consulate. 10 provide for
their support he had every day to 60 out,
and we are assured that both parties had SO
much respect FOR him that on his appearing
in the streets, they suspendng firing until he
had passed the lines.
The Government captors, on taking pos
session OF it, were ,fortifyng and Strengthening
the city by every means in their power.
The steamer Guerrero, whose revolt from
the Constitutonalists has already been an
nounced with her subsequent blockade o!
Vera Cruz, arrived at Tobasco on the 26th
Tampico and 1obasco are now in the posses
sion of the Zuloaga government
With respect 10 Tampico, private communi
cations with which we are favored announce
in addition to the defeat of Cara, that Mira
mons force, in San Luis, has been increased
to4000 men and twenty-four pieces of artil
lery probably including the force under Gen
