Louisville and Memphis Railroad  {Memphis, Clarksville & Louisville RR}
   On the line of this road there are but eighteen miles of iron to be lain, and the whole of the iron has been received. The contractors are confident of completing the route by the middle of February. The bridge across the Cumberland will not, however, be finished at that time: communication will be made by ferry.
