it is quite as authentic and much more

UNFORTUNATE RAILWAY ENTERpR1s

UNFORTUNATE RAILWAY ENTERPRISE
IN BRAzIL-A Mr.. Frank Peterman, a
member of the engineer corps that went
out to assist MIR. Collins in the building
of the Amazon Valley railroad, has re-
turned to this city on the schooner T.
Morris Perot, from Para. Mr.
Peterman says of the enterprise that
at present the outlook is bad, there being
but two miles CT rails laid, one half of the
emigrants having fed, and two-thirds
(280) of those remaining being sick, SO
that there is but one man actually able to
continue the work, Mr.. Collins himself
is sick, and one month ago, when MI.
Peterman received letters from there at
Para, it was not thought he would not
recover. The chief engineer predicts
that the road cannot be built in twelve
years. Mr.. Collins, it is further said, has
not been able to pay off his men, and the
orders on parties at home, given to some
of them, it is alleged, however, that MI
Collins has done all in his power to car
ry on the work.
