Northern Line Being Built.

An Important railroad is being built vnorthward from Petrograd to a point on the Arctic ocean, near the Norwegian frontier, about five hundred miles west of Archangel, on a portion of the Arctic coast line, reached by the end of the Gulf stream, which makes the climate at that point much milder than at Archangel. A port will be created there that should, it is said, never become icebound, as Archangel is in winter.
