The d. Q. and 5. Railroad.

Messrs. John Moores and L. NJ. Allen, the
canvassers appointed to solicit rights-of way
for the proposed Deer Creek and Susque-
hanna Railroad, have met with gratifying sue
sess. The route runs through the property
of thirty-n nine persons, of whom twenty one
have given the right-ofway. The prospects
of getting the railroad are Frightening every
day, and the progress or failure of the enter
prise is entirely in the hands of those who
will be directly and most largely benefited by
its construction. If they show an ungener-
Gus spirit it will deter Others who would be
only incidentally benifitted from subscribing
to the capital stock of the road. 1t will re-
quire the right-of-way and stock subscrip-
tions amounting to $4,000 to secure this
long-desired railroad.
