RAILROAD MATTERS.
The St. A. 4 P. and st. ]. & II. to Con-
meet in East Palatka.

The St. A. 4 P. and St. ]. 4 r. to Con-
meet in East Palatka
Maj. r. Mclaughlin, president of the
st. Augustine and Palatka Railway, and
Mr.. U. j. White, president OF the st.
Johns and Halifax Roed, met in this city
yesterday and arranged for the connec-
ton of the two roads ut point just back
of Darby's mill, in East Palatka.
Col Carter, of the st. Johns and Hall
fax, informed a representative of The
PALATKA News that the grading would
commence just as soon as the labor
could be secured to do the work.
Early next week dock on the oppo-
site side Of the river is to be commenced
and when completed, which Will not be
before the connection of the two roads
is made, a track will be laid to this dock
and the trains of both roads run down
and connect with the ferry boat till the
bridge, which will follow, is completed,
making one ferry service do for both
roads.
The ST. Johns and Halifax will then,
very likely, carry out its original inten-
ton of extending its line to New
Smyrna, fourteen miles distant, and
with the Georgia Southern and Florida
the people on the East Coast will have
an outlet to the West.
