T C.F d II. Il. r. Bridge-Messrs McCoY
& MELESDr have removed their big ram (pile
driver from Cedar City, where it has done
efficient service lately, to GAINESVILLE, and have
commenced delivering the timber for the r..
r. Bridge over the Cedar river at that place.
They will take advantage of the present con-
dition of the ice in the river for driving the
piles for the piers of the Bridge, and 6attering
operations will begin Immediately. The ST.
pcrstructure will be pushed forward as rapid
ly as possible during the winter, in order that
the whole structure may be so far advanced
as to prevent the possibility Of delay from
high water in the spring.
The following items, relative to the above
road, we clip from the Wavcrly Republican
of the III tn inst:
"A Mr.. BURKE has contracted with EDG-
ERroS & Co. to grade four miles of the track
from GAINESVILLE north, and is now building
shantics along the line preparing to commence
the work. These four miles, we believe, en-
brace the heaviest grading on the line. The
two miles next to town is to be graded by the
citizens, resident here. The work is to be
made ready by the time the track layers can
reach it, and it is confidently hoped that ere
another harvest yellows in the sunshine, the
neigh of the iron-horse will be heard as it
comes in majesty along our beautiful Valley.
MIR. TRACY, the assistant Engineer on the
c. f. g. NJ. r. r., commenced running line
northward, few days since, crossing the
river some two miles above town, thence by
the way of Horton and Bradford. The citi-
zens of this place, we believe, incur the ex-
penses, and promise to contribute largely
toward the expense Of building, if this line
should be adopted by the Company.
