Stockholders, some of IIhe Ieading 'p:ovis

out the great advaninges which Imzy be
derived fi-om this institution, and the valu
able uses to which it mny bt' npp;iied. The
"South Western R ail Rlnid !sank" hss been
chartered by the States of North and South
Carolina and lennessee, with a enpial not

are entertained thatI lie renewed app'iltiion,
which is to be madtle to her legislatore, at
the ensuing ueseion, will not fail of suceess.
We are strcngtlh'ienl in the expectation, by
the liavorable disposition n;ifeteel tnow aris
our enterprise, at a recent tieetig of the
Directors, at Lexington; by the small ma
jority, against the applieation, at the last
session, of only six votes: by the deep in

shall be realized or no, it ennnot ie doubt
