We have seen a letter from President Branner of this
road, dated Monday, which says that the trains will run on mail
schedule daily from Mossy Creek to Bristol and back -- leaving Mossy
Creek at 1 1/2 o'clock P. M., and arriving at Bristol at 11. Returning
they will leave Bristol at 9 P. M., and arrive at Mossy Creek at 6 A.
M. No arrangements at present, owing to the destruction of the
bridges, and the fact that the rolling stock is all on the other end
of the road, can be made for transporting passengers from this city by
mail to Mossy Creek. We trust, however, that some enterprising person
will get up a stage line between the two points, that travel and the
mails may be at once resumed over the route.
