We are reliably informed that there are enough of rails on the ground now to lay track two miles this side of Spring Mills, and that the road will not be delayed at the latter point. We hope that the peo ple cfthis valley are not to be subject to any more delays—the work is now going ©n slowly enoagh, notwithstanding as surance was given that it would be pushed with more earnestness. Our people were prompt in performing their part, and sime subjected to prosecution becau-e they were not prompt in paying their sub- L. scriptions, yet the railroad company has been more than alow in performing its part. Since writing the above *c have been iviuaaed that two miles of track were laid las', week, and by the end of this week 24 miles more will be laid and the tunnel reached.
