Ora Railroad. A few weeks ago, we
informed our readers, that an effort was
Biking to extend the Railroad from Phil
Spsburg to this place, and that the Penn
rIvania Central Company had offered one
laudred and fifty thousand dollars, to re
iponible parties here, to grade the road,
taild the bridges,, furnish the ties, procure
the right of way, etc This offer has been
iseptel by Gov. Bigler, and others of our
citizens who had the matter in charge ; and,
te are informed, they have entered into an
agreement with the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company to complete the work specified,
and upon the conditions proposed. And we
farther learn, that these gentlemen have al
ready made a contract with the Collin's
Brother to grade the road and build the
bridges the work to be commenced within
twenty days, and completed within fourteen
months. The Me."srs. Collins are experi
ced railroad men, who have done much
"rk on the Pennsylvania Central, and who
are now just finishing a contract on a road j
ii the north-eastern part of this State. It j
is their intention to have at least two hun
dred and fifty men at work within a month,
and to push the work to as speedy a com
pletion as possible. Thus it will be seen
that the railroad to Clearfield is a fixed fact,
and that in a little over a year we may ex
jwt to see the "iron horse" invading the
precincts of our borough, and our streets
become " vocal" with the " music" of the
bxill whistle of the locomotive.
