BLUE MOUNTAIN, Ala., the present terminus of the Alabama & Tennessee River Rail-Road, is a very small village, principally noted from its being a centre for stage lines, and proposed railroads, one of which is now being built through from Rome, Ga., by the Confederate Government.

ROME & BLUE MOUNTAIN ROAD.
C. H. SMITH, Secretary.

This road is now in course of construction by the Confederate Government, and is intended to extend from Rome, Georgia, to Blue Mountain, Alabama, where it will form junction with the Alabama & Tennessee River rail-road, making a most desirable cut-off, in pressing cases, for the transportation of troops and stores for army purposes.
