Oxford and Peach Bottom Railroad
4 Fulton correspondent thus writes of the
survey now being made of tile route for
this road Mr.. Hood has completed the
survey of that portion of the Northern or
Fishing Greek Route, between joel Smed-
leys mill OH the Conowingo, and Fitc's
Eddy, ON the Susquehanna. and he is now
about mile east of the river, ON the Peach
Bottom route, surveying towards Oxford.
No preference has as yet been expressed
by him. and probably will not be until the
survey shall be completed. One thing is
very certain Mr.. Hood is making Il most
careful and accura c survey, and no one
who has conversed with him can doubt for
a moment that he will make an entirely
impartial report. The people Of southern
Lancaster county will therefore soon be
relieved of any doubts as to the practical
