Dr. Smith and Mr.. Killebrew the
President and Chief Engineer of the
Brownsville Railroad were III our town
last week
President Smith reports that this
road will likely be changed from an
average to narrow guage, in order to
accommodate the transfer of cars upon
the ST Louis aud Cairo road which he
says will be built from St. Louis to
Cairo.
The Engineer, Mr. Killebrew. in
forms Us that the Brownsville
road was being graded this side of
Frieudship-that it Would pass
through Troy aud Union City, and on
to Cairo His opinion is that the
work will be begun ut Union City, by
the first day January next.
Mr.. Kilebrew also informs us, that
he has been prospecting a route from
near Friendship to Tiptonville, thence
on the Levee to Hickman. This is a
grand project for Lake, and no doubt
Der citizens are as willing as the citi
zeus of Troy, to lend n helping hand
Since congersing with Mr.. Killebrew,
we have seen Capt. Adams of Lake
county, who Informs US that the
citizens of that county were so contident
that this arm would be built, that they
are speaking of fling petition for u
charter Immediately in the Chancery
Court Iron Times.

Mr.. EDITOR :-Iu response to your
call Of last week requesting suggestions
towards the building of railroad from
this point to Hickman, Ky, | crave
the indulgence of your readers for a
few words
In treating subject of such great
county, it cannot be expected, Mr. Ed
itOr that everything eau be considered
in one communication, and | shall
therefore only point out, III this enc
a few of the many advantages tins
road would confer. not only upon the
citizens of Mississippi county, but up
on South East Missouri and the STATE
generally, aud tho feasibility of its con
struction.
The first question, and one which
influences most people in any great un
dertaking, especially of public eharac
teri shall present is, the Cost.
From estimates of practical engin-
GERS, and railroad men we gather the
following cost of building

to that amount, and the bal /

doubts can be entertained about assis- /
lance desired from the Nashville <
Railroad, as eonnec-
tiens made with them at Hick man
shortens the distance from ST Louis I
20 all points South over fifteen miles
The city Of Hickman would no doubt I
also contribute literally towards its
being greatly iterested in .
having close connection by rail with
the great west.
In the building of this road, l pro +
pose to show in my next what advan
tages could be gained, not only to the +
country, but to large number of land
holders, by complete system of drain
age, thereby recovering and utilizing
over 100000 acres Of the finest land in
county l desire and ask
the closest scrutiny as to this project, I
and would respectfully suggest that
other writers and thinkers OF our coun- (
~ give througg the Courier, their views /
