Georgia Railroad |
A correspondent desires to be
informed when the public may reasonably expect the pleasure of
traveling on the Georgia Railroad to Augusta." We answer through
our columns, so that others, equally interested, may also be informed. |
At last accounts, the relaying
of the iron was progressing rapidly, under the energetic management of
the Engineers, and the increased force placed at the disposal of the
road by the completion of the Atlantic & West Point road; with the
probability that the track would be ready before the bridge over the
Yellow river could be completed. In the Intelligencer of the 28th, we
find the following notice. Col. Grant is one of the most reliable
railroad engineers in the South, and seldom miscalculates. We think
the public may confidently expect the connection between Atlanta and
Augusta to be completed by the 1st of May -- the gap being lessened
every day. |
Georgia Railroad |
We have just been informed by
Col. L. P. Grant, the efficient and active Superintendent of repairs
on the Georgia railroad, that if the weather shall continue favorably,
he thinks the cars on that road will reach our city by the 20th of
April. |
