THE LONG ISLAND RAILRoAp-In the Di-
rcctors' Report published February, ISL, the
estimated time rc1u;red for performing the dis
tancc from New. York TO Boston, by this route,
is 81 hours, viz From Brooklyn TO Grccnport,
81 hours; across the Sound, 2 hours; from
Stonington to Boston, i hours. II is probable.
however, that the distance viii be run over III >
hours: 3 hours 10 Gr.enport; to Stonington /;
TO Boston. BY the Norwich road The time
will Slightly exceed this.

way is rapidly pushing towards Augusta, the
Capital Of Maine, and Bangor, It's great lumber

our impression is, that this road is 10 be CON-

The road from Boston 10 Fitchburg is advancing
with great rapdty, and will without doubt, be
extended to the Canada line.

of grain remain untouched by the gcapcr; and |
will be fully borne out In asserting, that oi the en-

there will not be to exceed ORe-hdJ crop OF mcr-

destitute of substance.


Such being the termination, our farmers that
have been more favored seem disposed TO hold on,
and arc now stacking away their gram for higher
prices. Good understandable wheat could now be
sold at 50 cents, and from all appearances, the
market cannot range below these figures during
the fall.
