THE NEW RAILROAD.

The Route IL will take from will
mington TO the Christians.
The proposed route OF the new Bals
timore and Ohio ialiroad, between
Baltimore and Philadelphia was FORE
shadowed In the GAZETTE several days
ago, In connection with the announce
ment Of the purchase of right Of way
through certain property. A detailed
sketch of the route is now given as
follows:
The line of the road between Will
mington and a point on the Susque-
hanna one mile above Perryvillee is
somewhat shorter than the Philadel-
phia, Wilmington and Baltimore Line.
The new road will rike the Delaware
Western a. Kiamensl station and turn
up the valley of the Red Clay Creek,
touching properties owned by the
Newport Bank, Chas. Newlin. Vincent
j. Finn and others. The line runs
to the west end of Stanton to Pike
Greek, which will be bridged, and then
On through lands of j. Cloud Elliott,
James Morrow aud others 10 q point
a short distance north of Newark,
where the White Clay Creek will be
spanned by bridge. through New
ark the road will run within 20 feet of
the Deer Park Hotel. Below Newark
1t will cross the Christiana by a small
bridge, at which point 1t will be only
a half mile from the p, W. & B. r.
X.
In Cecil county the Elk Mills will be
touched and the North East river, west
of the town, will be spanned by bridge
OF three arches. The iins In Cecil will
end abon, mile above fefryville, q d
The 5u. gu. b hsnna will be bridged either
at WatsoD's Island or Fishers Bluff.
The location Of the stations on the
new line cannot be learned yet. The
grading on the new road will not be diff
ficult. It will be comparatively eapy
from WilmiERton TO the Big Elk, In De-
Gil county. From there TO Mill Creek
the couutry is rather billy, and in places
Is depsely wooded. IL will not be an ex-
oeedlngl ~ expensive road to construct
How the road will enter WilminRton
has not been decided upon. No definite
