We copy from q communication in the
Waterloo Qndians) City Press the follow
ing items Of interest:
A project is now ia view to build rail-
road that will connect the city Of Fort
Wayne with the pine timber and salt re-
gions Of Michigan, and if / am any judge
of business matters, the road will be
built, and that, TOO, at an early day. The
question to be determined by us now is,
shall the road be built by the way Of
Waterloo?
1t is proposed to continue the line Of
railroad North to the Lake Superior re-
gions, thereby opening up mine Of wealth
to the manufacturers Of iron and copper;
and upon the South road is now under
contract to be built from Fort Wayne TO
Richmond, mailing a direct communica-
ton with Cincinnati and the Ohio river,
making continuous route from South to
North of several hundred miles in length.
The engineers Of the Fort Wayne,
Muncie and Cincinnati Railroad Company
are ct work on the line between Muncie
and Button. 1t is expected that the
road from Muncie to New Castle will
be completed by the frst Of July next.

THE BLUE RIDGE RAILROAD.

The following article is copied from the Railroad
Record, published at Cincinnati. Its heading
.Cincinnati and Charleston Railroad-lnterest IN
it still alive in South Carolina-Will Cincinnati
still hold up her end Of the string :"
We have just received the following interesting
fatter from j. w. Harrison, Esq. the President of
the Blue Ridge Railroad. In response, ws remark
that, ne believe at this moment there ia deeper
conviction of the necessity for the construction OF
shis road to the vital interests Of Cincinnati than
has existed at any time since 1885. Heretofore
there has existed sort of quiescent acknowledg-
ment that it was ''good thing to have an lnde-
pendent and direct connection with the Southern
seaboard and the Southern system of railroads ;
But, at this time, there is o current OF greater
depth in the public feelings that only needs a
proper direction and guidance, to give it most eff-
eien. force, and accomplish PRACTICAL results.
Hitherto, there has been one or two obstacles in
the way unnecessary here to mention, that have
acted as ''bugbears" and stumbling blocks" pre-
venting such combination of interests as would
be sufficient to receive the necessary means to con-
struct 80 great work. These, We have good
reasons to believe, have been recently removed,
and that reasonable working plan will, before
many days, be presented to the citizens of Cincin-
natl that will commend itself to the good sense of
our citizens and secure their most hearty coopcra-
ton, and the speedy completion of our end Of the
route. Hence, we have no hesitancy in saying to
Mr. Harrison, and the citizens Of South Carolina,
that Cincinnati will be ready with her iron horse
and warm heart, to meet and greet them at Knox
vile as soon as they can possibly construct their
end Of the route.
