We gave a state- * i meot, n few weak* since, which asm* exU | trnsively copied, in regard to the re- ^ ccipts of the road and how mueli those receipts exceeded the running expenses. Tlie statement proved to bw very «n- .' conrsging, not only to those raorencar- | ly interested in the success of the road ' itself, but was favorably received by all ' who have the general prosperity of our 6 1 county nt heart. The .workings of ihe road have proved lliut it is a decided 1 success, and not a miserable failure as r tome, whose wish Was father tm the '" thought, predicted that it would bo.
