  The {Memphis & Charleston RR} Depot -- At last the railroad has a passenger Depot at this place, which is creditable to the Road and to Huntsville. It contains every requisite for comfort, convenience and necessity. It contains a Ticket Office, Gentlemen's Room, Ladies Salon with entirely private arrangements; Engineer's, Conductor's, Superintendent's, Treasurer and Secretary's Rooms, etc. Every department of the Road is provided for, and all under one roof, so that the whole can readily communicate with the different parts. The building is creditable to the taste of the architect, and the town and Road too.
