the want OF direct line Northwards, via
charlotte, n. c., Col. Bullock. the able and
e"erSetie mead OF the Southern Express
Company, made arrangements with the
Charlotte and South Carolina Railroad
Company, and the Express Company built
the hnc. About the same time, We learn
that he proffered some similar arrange
ment t" the Grecnville Railroad Company.
and VIC learn that the Express Company
are no" running their messengers land

the former proffer Of Col. Bullock, and ws
have II" doubt that, when the matter is
brought to his attention, he will 20 to

be OF great Importance to the people OF the
state, both in the upper and lower sec.
aons, connecting mountain and seaboard.
and would doubtless bring additional busi-

Col Bullock.
