The Superintendent adds:
The gross receipts show large gain upon any
previous yeSr. aud the nett profits greater per
cent upon the receipts than ever before. The in
ing the expense caused by the starting and running
tons added to the eXraordi 1ary expense necessa-
Of transportation, yet the expense account of the
current year is q much smaller per cent upon the
gross earnings than any year since the road was
opened.
Ga the 2Olh Of April last the road wss opened TO
Duck River, at which time an additional train
started, which continued 10 run regularly between
that point and Nashville until the l6,h Of June.
when the road was competed TO Columtis. Since
thea Two regular trains have been running between
Nashville and Columbia.
Very little business was done south Of Thompson
StAiop from the fact that ell the produce had been
set forward before the road was opened beyond
that station, and that it opened at season of
the year when less travelling is done than any other
snee almost all the receipts have been realized be-
tween Thompson Ststion and Nashville, q distance
OF tSenty-eight and half miles.
There are few, il any, unfinished roads, running
go short distance and making no more important
connections, IS the Superintendent remarks, whose
receipts have been 50 large. This fact shows the
Importance Of the road TO the wealthy region of
country through which it passes, and indicates that
il wiz be one sf the best paying roads in the State
