Our Railroad Scheme. what the
New York Tribune SAYS.


The New York Tribune of the 22d instant
publishes the following relative to our railroad
schemes
For considerable time past the affairs of the
New Jersey Southern Railroad Company have
been the subject OF very general discussion in
railroad and financial circles. 1t is officially
announced that it is now on the point of COM
plete organization. When all arrangements
and consultations are perfected, the New
Jersey Southern will embrace the following
roads,
The Long Branch and Seashore, the New
Egypt and Pennington, the Toms River and
Watertown, the Pemberton and New York,
the Nineland, the Smyrna and Delaware Bay,
the Kent County, the Maryland and Delaware,
with power to consolidate and amaleamate with
other railroads in the States of New Jersey,
Maryland, and Delaware, as may be requisite
to make a continuous line to Baltimore, Mary
land, and Norfolk, Virginia.
! The road owns and controls the ferry from
| Bayside, N. j., to Bombay Hook, Del, and
the steamers between its terminus at Port
Monmouth and Sandy Hook and New York
For the purpose of facilitating its business the
company is now having constructed a number
of large boats, one of which will be completed
by the middle of June. This boat will be
named the Metropolis, and will be used ex-
cluSlvely for the transportation of freight
between Sandy Hook and New York.
1t will be $40 feet long and 81 feet wide, and
IT will be fitted with tracks so that the train OF
80 loaded freight cars which it is intended to
transport can be rolled on board, carried to the
city, unloaded, and returned to Sandy Hook
for removal to the West. This boat will cost
5000, 900, and will make the trip in two hours.
Another boat that will ply between Bayside and
Bombay Hook will transport "a loaded freight
cars, and cost $l5O,0OO.
1.-Two vessels now in course of construction are
intended for the Chesapeake Bay. The passen-
ger vessels of the company are intended to
rival those of the Fall River line in luxury and
expense.
The officers of the road say that it will be
completed about July (the contracts specify
ing that date as the limit, and that it will be
trunk line extending from New York to St.
Louis by means of connection which will be
made with the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
near Baltimore. The new line, they claim,
will be IS miles shorter than the Erie line, and
will run through the most fruitful regions OF
New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, and Virginia.
The capita stock of the road will be $1,000.

THE MOsT DIRECT LINE.-When the
Bombay Hook Railroad shall have been COM
pleted. together with the Massey's link to
Rock Hall, the line will form the most direct
route from the South to two of the greatest
watering places in the United States-Cape
May and Long Branch. From Bombay Hook
to Cape May the distance is, we believe, less
than thirty miles, by either rail or water, while
the New Jersey Southern runs direct to Long
Branch, distance of about lis miles from
Smyrna. We may therefore expect the COM
pletion of this route to set the Summer travel
this way, particu larly for Cape May, which is
the fashionable resort for Baltimoreans and
other Southerners.
