The Mails |
We learn from Col. S. L.
Fremont, Engineer and Superintendent of the Wilmington & Weldon
Railroad, that the road is now all ready to run the regular schedule,
and is only waiting on the Postmaster General. |
We shall indeed be glad when
the regular schedule on our roads is resumed and when the telegraphic
office is again opened. Why can't it be opened? What is to hinder it?
Do the operators desire to stay away until the occurrence of that
degree of cold when tophet shall freeze over, and they can dance on
the ice? There be some people who really seem so timid about coming
back {after the yellow fever} as to
occasion remark, not quite undeserved either. |
