The trustees of the Schenectady turnpike also had got an inkling that something new had turned up, which they had been slow to perceive. A survey was begun by Mr. Cushman with a view to laying down rails, it being claimed that they were invested with rail road privileges; The project was quashed, I am told, by a division of |100,000 of Mohawk and Hudson stock, at par, among the stockholders of the turnpike. Although the locomotive De Witt Clinton had been placed on the road in July, and the cit...y officials and other dignitaries had passed over it both by horse and steam power early in August, it was so late as the 22d of Septem-. ber, when the locomotive was advertised to take pas- senger trains. The road was still uncompleted, and used only from the junction, as it was called, two miles from the foot of State street, from whence passengers The Mohawk and Hudson Bail Boad. 13 were taken to the train by stage coaches. The other terminus of the road was still at the bluff overlooking Schenectady, where passengers were again transferred to stages.
