Working on North End.
Crown Point Star. 1 O. Dinwiddie and Mr. Gifford, the promoter of the new railroad, were here on Wednesday negotiating for some right-of way on the marsh, and informed us that grading had been commenced on the Dinwiddie land, south of Plum Grove and that a larger force would soon be put on. The road is now headed to cross the Monon 1 j miles south of Lowell, and thence into West Creek, the objective, but if Lowell succeeds in getting some right-of-way allotted to them they will get the road, after which it will take a northwesterly course in range of Brunswick, and thence on to Chicago Heights and everything now looks favorable for the enterprise to go through, and also for Lowell to All her part of the contract. Mr. Dinwiddie seems to have no doubt of its early completion.
