The Michigan Central rallroad is making (jutte a number of improveinents. A three-hundred foot curve, or more, has just been put in on the west side of the track near the old lime kiln; it will be used in connection witk E. B. Hali's new coal yard. Ground has been purchased by the Central east of the passenger depot and a side track curve will be run from near the water tank to the Sinclair milis and agricultural works; it will cost perhaps $8,000. By the bye, the Central has purchased the property near the old brewery on the south side of the track, between Detroit and State streets, and hcre the new depot will be built. Plans for the same were made sorac time since, we are assured, but the erection of the depot has been unexpectedly delayed. Wben the new depot is built that .portion of the yard in the vicinity of the old depot will be devoted to the freight business, The main track through the city will be stralghtened. A switch engine now does the work for this city and Ypsilanti in tiie Central yards.
