circumstances, prices much below the quotations
would have to be ac epted. The sales 1865 bales,

MIDDLEcREEK RAILRoAD.-We learn authori-
tatvely that arrangement was made last week
between the Shade Mountain Iron Company and
the Board of Directors of the NJ C. r. R., by which
the road to be graded from Selinsgrove to Beaver
Furnace, distance of12 miles by the first of August
the contractor having ratified this part-and as
the ties and rails will be the ground by the time
tsgraded, track laying will Immediately thereafter
commence and the cars run this fall By this ar
rangement, the s. NJ. Iron Company will furnish
the rails So lbs to the yard and agree to take out
the cost in transportation, that IL miles of the
road will be laid with rails without the expenditure
of single dollar over and above the cost of laying
track. Mr. Alexander, the President, has thus far
been most ortunate in pushing ahead this important
link in railroad communication, and if nothing un-
toward occurs, We may now safely predict that the
oars will run from Lewistown to Northumberland
before the close of 1859.
