A Columbia dispatch to the Charleston
NelCs and Courier has this to say in re-
gard to the 5saboard Air Line: "OnIy ten
miles Of railroad yet to the city of Charles
ton means a great deal, no more or less than
the entrance of another great system OF
railways into the leading South Carolina
seaport. This short portion of railroad
track which accomplishes so much is the
extension Of the Charleston, Sumter and
Northern railroad, from its terminus at
Beunettsvills in this state to Gibson.
a station in North Carolina, which is
on the Palmetto railroad, a branch OF
the Seaboard Air Line, connecting with the
main line. Thus is the connection with the
Seaboard Air Line formed. The state rail
road commission has returned from its in
spectlon of this extension, which has Just
been completed. Chairman Duncan says
that they found the new extension an adj
mlraoly constructed piece Of work, except
IN one place, where the grade is to be re-
duced Immediately by five feet. They au-
buOTlZeu III TO De opened Tor tratnc. The
commission also went over the entire line
of the road and found it in the best con-
dition. This brings the Seaboard Air Line
system right into Charleston. as a deal
has already been effected between
the two roads, and it puts Charles
ton on almost an air line for Ports
mouth and Norfolk and the north. 1t was
the missing link that gives the Charleston,
Sumter and Northern an outlet, makes the
road worth something, and puts all that
section or the state on the main line of a
great system. Raleigh, n c.. is thus
brought three miles nearer to Charleston
than by any other route. A new main line
into Columbia, which is just as short as the
Coast Line, is also made by this route.
Through trains from Charleston ana the
north will be put on Immediately. The
object is TO put on Pullman cars and run a
rival schedule to the Coast Line as soon as
the arrangements can be completed.

Reports to the RdiI,Oay Age of track laid
during the niue months of the year SO far
show that 2,5l9 miles of main track have
been laid on 200 different lines in the United
States, while large amount of grading has
been done on which the rails are yet to go
down. There are in sight over l 800 miles
of road on which track is expected to be
laid before the end of the year, SO that we
feel safe in repeating the estimate made
three months ago that the tracklsying of
1872 will aggregate not far from 4 900 miles.
or course II the winter should set IN very
early and severely it may put stop to
some work now nearing completion, but
october and November are good season
for railway building. and many hundreds
of miles of track will be added during those
months. under any contingency. Since the
statement for July there have been 1,l54
miles added-almost as much as were re-
ported for the previous six months.
