house, in the town of Columbia, at 2 P.
NJ, or the 18th inst; large majority OF
the Stock was represented.
The very interesting reports of the
President, Secretary and Chief Engi neer
were read and received by the meeting.
These reports show that the company
is in fourishing condition, financially
and otherwise, as after haHing completed
the Railroad from Columbia to Lewis
burg ready for the track-a considerable
surplus OF means will be left in the
Treasury. Earnest efforts have been
made by the President, the Chief En-
gineer and Col. J. II. Lewis, of Marshall
County, since some time to raise means
to purchase rails and equipments for
the completed roadbed, and the strong
hope was expected that in a few
months some negotiations now pending
would be perfected, by which the sue
cessful completion of the road would be
accomplished. The Louisville and
Nashville Railroad Company has since
some time been anxious to assist the D.
r. IL r. N. Company in perfecti1g such
arrangement, which would lead to the
completion of that road, as it will be
very valuable feeder to the trunk
line. We understand that it is confiA

thousand dollars per mile, and then
proceeded to the election OF the follow
