The Morristown Gazette learns from Major Rollins, President of the Eastern Division of the Western North Carolina Railroad, that his road is now in the hands of the Southern Railway Security Association, and that the gap between Wolf Creek and Old Fort, N. C., will be completed in a short time. This is good news, indeed, for this community, and we heartily rejoice at the prospect of having Morristown's pet project fully consummated; i.e., the completion of the 'Buncombe' railroad.
