The Pensacola Railroad Completed  {Alabama & Florida (of Florida) RR}
   The Pensacola Railroad is now completed, and regular trains have commenced running. On Friday evening the first engine came through to Montgomery, and on Saturday morning the first full train. This carried down Capt. Clanton and his company of "Mounted Rifles," who have been waiting some days in Montgomery for the gap in the road to be closed. Several heavy guns and mortars were also sent down yesterday.
