Before many of our readers have
breaktasted this morning, the light
ming train will have reached Oakland
wharf, provided no accident occurs.
The passengers will arrive in San
Francisco several hours ahead of time,
and will be there in time for breakfast
instead Of dinner, as first proposed.
The following kilograms, received yes
terday, for which we are indebted to
Mr.. Fitch, will show the progress of
the train. Several bets were made
yesterday that the train would arrive
" hours out from Ne Y York, but TAX
ing into consideration that the train
left Jersey City at | o'clock Thursday
morning, it would have to arrive at
the western terminus at the same time
this morning. which shows rather
risky betting on one SIDE. Following
are the latest kilograms:
