The first ascends the A lie. gheuy river to the mouth of the Kiskimi. nets, and thence by the Coneniauith retch es the Allegheny Mountains, through which a tunnel would connect the eastern and western waters, and the Valley of the Ju rists would be us-d to reach the Suqne hanna and thence to the ea at our new seaport on Delaware Bay, a distance of something over four hundred miles, say four 1'iin.lred and twentv.tive.
