Eastern Railroad.

The management of the Eastern Railroad
are seriously considering the matter of improv-
ing their wharf property at East Boston,
which fronts upon the deepest portion of the
harbor and is next to the Cunard steamship
dock, and if the wharf is improved it will be
with view of adapting it for the accommoda-
ton of ocean steamships of the largest class,
with ample shed and grain storage rooms, &c.
Ample facilities could easily be provided at
this point for three or four large vessels, and
in connection with the road of the company,
which reaches around to the city proper and
connects with the Boston & Albany, Fitchburg,
Lowell and Maine railroads, the wharf would
give excellent berth room for transatlantic
line. If the scheme is fully carried out, and
we understand that there is but little doubt
but what it will be, it will require the removal
of the machine shops OF the road, now located
upon the wharf, to some point. A movement
has for some time been under way in connec-
nection with a removal of the nuisance
which it is claimed the railroad has created at
the Mill Pond il Salem, by which it was hoped
that some agreement could be arrived at with
the road to locate the machine shops at that
point. Matters were apparently progressing
favorably when, by the appointment of a sec
ond committee of the City Council of Salem,
the subject has attracted the attention of sew
eral other localities along the line of the road,
who appear to be anxious to secure the prize
with the consequent result. Salem now finds
several active competitors for the shops, with
some prospect that in the event that if it is de-
cided to remove them some other locality may
secured them. 1t has been rumored that as
high as $780, 900 has been offered the railroad if
the shops can be removed to Salem. But this
rumor in hardly credited in we'll informed Cir
elias

DR.. Rollas, Lecture ON London,

Mr.. EDIToR:-I take up my pen to do what
1 should have done a week ago, viz: call the
attention of your readers to DR.. Bolles' lectures
On London. Ny reasons for not writing such a
friendly notice week ago was, that thought
it super1uous, and that it might seem even
presumptuous in me, or any one, to do such a
thing, DR.. Bolles being so favorably known to
all our citizens as second to no lecturer who
appears before the public, always sure to do
exceedingly well whatever he undertakes to do
This week the thought has occurred to my
mind under new aspect, viz: that might do
service to many who were interested last
winter in the Saturday Lectures" by remind
ing them that these lectures of DR.. Bolles,
though including the same ages of English
history, are limited to London, and illustrate
its marvellous growth by accurate pictorial
views explained by an accomplished historical
scholar and speaker. The next one on "Lon-
don of the Restoration will be given Monday
evening.
1 shall esteem it a privilege TO attend such
of the lectures as my engagements will permit.
Hoping that these fine lectures will be duly
appreciated and attended by others,
am, sir, very truly yours,
A DALTON.
