New. RAILRoAD--It is the intention OF
the friends of internal improvement to
have meeting at Grenada, Mississippi,
on Saturday next, that necessary steps
may be taken to build road from that
point to Meridian. This road-about
enc hundred miles loug-will be of great
advantage to Memphis, by placing US on
an air line in direct com munication with
Mobile. To the people along the line it
will be Of incalculable benefit, by en-
BANGING the value of their lands and
giving them easy and cheap facilities of
travel to market The Importance of
this road is very great, and Col John I.
Trezevant has consented to address a
meeting of the people at Grenada next
Saturday. From the past experience OF
that gentleman in railroad matters, his
address will no doubt be highly enter
tanning. he has been engaged for fifteen
years past in building railroads, and has
done great deal toward beneftting our
State by internal improvements. he is
a gentleman for whom the community
has the highest appreciation. We wish
him, as we'll as the people, success in this
new enterprise. fff,lfrrt
