THE RAILROAD

On the night of the Goth ult., at. the same
time Pulaski was visited by the tornado,
several bridges on the Nashville and De-
catur railroad were swept away. and no
trains have ran through since that tine
The consequence is we have had but two
or three mails IN ten days or more, and
freights for this place and points further
south, have accumulated at Nashville
The gap in the road extends from Lynn
vile to Elk River. That prince of conduc-
tors, PIrTs BRowx, was caught within the
gap, and has been spending the week with
US. He Informs Us .that trains will run
through again in asfeQ days.
These mail derap geshen: S have inteffered
with US in making up news items for this
paper. We hope to chronicle the complete
repair of the road and the regular arrival
Of mails by our nextassue.
