Excerpt from The St. Lawrence and Atlantic Rail-Road: Its Position as a Private Undertaking, and Advantages as a National Work This Road, which is intended to connect Montreal with the Atlantic, at Portland and at Boston, is now completed from Montreal to St. Hyacinthe, ' a distance of thirty miles, and from Portland towards Montreal for forty miles, forty miles more being under contract, leaving on the American side seventy miles to be contracted for to meet the Canada lines; from Boston it is completed by the Concord and Passumpsic route to Wells-river, within fifty miles of the lines, and by the Connecticut route to Boston, the works are in progress. In Canada ninety-six miles remain to be made to reach the Lines, where a junction will be effected with the above three roads. One of these, the Passumpsic, is ready to push on to the lines the moment progress is made in Canada to meet them. As Seen above, the road from Portland is far advanced, the Con necticut is preparing with the Passumpsic, and will also be guided by what will be done in Canada. Those three American roads run through the centre of the four Eastern States - Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine, and in their course are intersected by numerous branch Rail-roads, connecting with the interior of these several States, and all unite with the Canada line, giving it an importance which no other Road possesses. These States are large consumers of produce of the West, which is now forwarded to Albany and thence taken to Boston by Rail-road, or to the several towns on their seaboard by sea, in small craft, Notwithstanding the severity of the present winter, the trains have been running regularly every day without being impeded in the least by the snow, owing to an elevated track having been adopted.
