| Tearing Up the Rail Road |
| On Saturday morning, a force
under the charge of an Engineer Officer commenced taking up the track
of the King's Mountain Rail Road, to transfer to another quarter where
it will be of greater importance to the country. While its loss will
be a serious inconvenience to a community that has long enjoyed its
use, they will no doubt recognize the serious necessity for its
removal, and yield a cheerful acquiescence to the greater demands of
the country, and the army, whose wants will be better supplied by it
elsewhere than here. |
| Our citizens will still
receive all the accommodations that can be afforded them by the trains
carrying off iron, while the work is going on. It is expected that two
miles of track per day will be removed. |
