has come suddenly to bea rail
road having the dimensions and
importance Of a trunk line from
the Atlantic sea-board to the Mis-
sissippi river. Within few days
/ this road has made contracts with
Chicago corn and wheat operators
that knock the bottom out of
freight rates; and these contracts
alarm the old lines running thro'
the sEowdIifts of the north, And
it is now certain that Newport
/ News, Va, situated upon the
grandest harbor in the world,
Hampton Roaos, will grow to he
one of the great ports Of the world
perhaps the metropolis of the
south-who knows? and should
the Chess peake and Illinois rail
road complete its line to Cairo,
Illinois and to Memphis, Tennes-
see, how will this affect Harrison,
Arkansas?
