WI copy the following from the Pine
Bluff Herald: "We are informed by
Judge Carroll and Major Carlton, who re-
turned on Saturday, after ten days
absence, from a tsur of inspection over
the Pine Bluff and New Orleans
railroad, that the work is rapid
ly Progressing and that everything
the road. There are now at work four
hundred hands, and the number is being
augmented by the different agencies for
the procuration of labor throughout the
North and South. Fifteen miles of the
road-bed are now ready for the crossties
and it is confidently expected that twenty
n will be by the LIST day of August.
Forty thousand erossties, prepared I'M
der sub contracts, with citizens along
the line, not included in the grad
ing party of four hundred mentioned
above, are deposited at convenient inter
walls. There will be 10 hindrancs or delay
as far as the ties are concerned. The iron
and the rolling stock ave been purchased,
and will be landed at the 'Sappington
Place about the LIST of August, from
which point a switch has been Constructed
TO the main road for the purpose of facil-
itating the work. Track-laying will be-
gin about the 10th day of August, at the
rate of n mile per day. There seems to
be an int1exible determination on the part
of those engaged in this work TO com
plste IL by the LIST of January, il pos
sible, and at all events, by the LIST of
March, 1871. We will then have daily con-
nectiOn with the Mississippi river. Sand
bars n low water will not trouble our
communication or disturb business rela-
tons with other localities. 1t would, in
our opinion, be advantageous in many
ways for this company to begin work
here, If possible, and move towards the
capital of the State, and by the time the
road is completed from the Great River
to this place, it will also be, or nearly 30,
to Little Rock.
THE last number of the Deyall's Bluff
Liberal contains the following: "On Tues
day an arrangement with the Cape Girar-
and State Line railroad, of Missouri,
establishing connection and mutual tariff
was agreed upon. Mr.. G.. 7. Q. Rumbough
was appointed Chief Engineer, and the
Board of Directors agreed to cross White
river at Des Arc, n from thence to Lo-
noke. Ifthose places will come up to
their agreement, there is nothing mere
sure than that his road will be built. The
road will run direct to the town of Jack
sOnport, and there is no obstacle in the
way Of the completion OF the entire line
If the people will come forward promptly,
and subscribe land contingent upon the
building of the road. Let all the friends
of the great enterprise go at once to work.
All stocks and subsidies viii have to be
hypothecated in the East, and we must be
rapidly moving. The levee work will all
DO completed this fall and winter.
The Cape Girardeau road is ready
for the iron nineteen miles this
side of the Mississippi river, and
will be completed to Indian Ford, q point
near Poplar Bluff, this season."
