The Iron Mountain railroad compa-
ny is extending their track to the WA
ter's edge, at Belmont; and il was eX-
pected that the Mobile and Ohio rail-
road company would commence the
extension offs track, in like manner,
on Saturday last. These extensions
completed, and q suitable ferrybOat
introduced, passenger and freight
trains will be conveyed to and fro
across the river, being thus enabled to
continue their trips, after only about
a half hours delay. This arrange
ment will doubtless add not a little to
the business of the two roads.
The Opelika (AIa.) Til Weekly To-
cOmottUe, of Saturday, says: MIR. j.
L. Pennington, President Ofthe North
east and Southwestern railroad, re-
turned from the North, where he had
been ON business connected with the
road, on Monday last. On Wednes-
day the co%rpOratOrs and stockholders
met, and ten per cent. of capital stock
having been subscribed, a permanent
organization was effected. Gov. w.
II. Smith and DIR. w. l.. Helm, of
Randolph; DIR. ". S. Brown, ofCham-
bers; w. IL. Barnes and j. l.. PEN
nington, OF Lee; j. j. Hinds, of De-
.catur, and John f. Harrington, of Mo-
bile, were elected Directors. The
Board convened Immediately there
after and elected j. l.. Pennington, Of
Lee, President, and John G. ToWles,
of Chambers, Secretaryand Treasurer.
TheBOard invested the President with
authority to let a portion of the work,
and we learn that engineers and con-
tractors are already on, and that a lot
of hands are already employed in
erecting shanties for the workmen.
The President has funds in hand, and
we are assured the work will be prose-
cuted with VigOF.
