Southern
{(of Mississippi)} Railroad Completed |
The Vicksburg
Whig, of the 6th says the iron has been laid on the entire track
between that city and the terminus at Meridian, in Lauderdale county,
connecting with the Mobile & Ohio Railroad. A bridge, which had been
completed, but was washed away by a late heavy freshet, alone prevents
the cars from running through. By the 4th of March, we learn the entire
line will be open to business and travel. |
