Sm:-You notice IN your money article of this
morning the reduction Of Housatonic Railroad ills
to the small sum of So 600, of which portion WILL
probably, never appear for redemption. Some espe-
cial notices of that road within the next two weeks
in your money articles will be duly appreciated and
paid for by parties interested in that work, which
now presents itself in very promising view, owing
to the favorable legislation expected at Hartford the
present session, and the probable connection with
the Harlem railroad


The points of advantage enjoyed by the Housa-
tonic Railroad at the present time, are =


1st. The cheapness and the readiness of complet-
ing that route to Albany..-the track can be relaid
with the heavy rail for half million of dollars and
in forty days from the landing of the iron at Bridg
port.


3D. Its selfdependence- local trade which
cannot be diverted elsewhere will now support it,
and its increase (aside from the Albany trade) will
make. it dividend paying stock on its present re-
duced cost and value. M
3d. If it can have the Albany trade for five years,
(the shortest time required for delays of charter
getting and construction by the great Albany road,
1t will pay for itself-and, after that be independent
Of the Albany connection from its increased local
trade, from the growing manufactures of the valley
and the trade from other sources. Please present
these views repeatedly, and in your better manner,
and oblige BRIDGEpoRT
