based upon the amount of oil shipped from Frank
lin to Pittsburgh during the year ending Sept. 1, ,
Pell We have no doubt, however, that ti •
shipments of oil from anti to these points will I et
largely increased. This Is the, opinion of dewy
ono who is acquainted with the oil business and
the present productiveness. of the welts. By the
construction of a shorter, safer and speedier line
of trensportation, even If the flow of wells
should remain the same as now, the shipments to
Pittsburgh would certainly be more than doubled.
And it would be entirely safe to estimate that the
freights from oil alone over the road when com
pleted; would amount to fifty thousand dollars a
month, or six hundred thousand dollars a year.
"The Board of Managers therefore appeal to
capitalists, and parties more immediately inter
ested, to aid in the construction of this valuable
public Improvement.
"To the 011-dcalers of plltsburgb and the oil
producers of Venimgo county the project Is of
the utmost Importance. In fact, all the bitsineta
interests of Pittsburgh aro mote or less deeply
Interested In the early completion of this road,
Unless, Pittsburgh shall soon secure a direct route
by roll to the oil regions, very much of the trade
which now goes to that city from that place. will
be diverted to Philadelphia by way of the Phila
delphia &Trie Railroad. -
Next to the 011-dealere, and old-prodaeers,"the
property-holders along the line are Interested In
Its construction. • The vast beds of coal and Iron
i ore along the entire line will be mined as soon as
the glespe of trancnnar.9oll are had; land will
I risfinpidly in value;fOrnaces and rolling4eills
I will be built, and the Industrial haterens of all
I. classes will be largely advanced.
" To those most Interested the Want of Man
agers 'look for the means to complete the enter
prise.
"So soon as a sufficient amount of stock droll
have been subscribed to insure the completletn Of
the line, the work will be pet ntide_f contract and,
prosecuted vigorously. At feast' five hundred'
thousand dollars of stock ghoul( be taken, which
with the amount that could Mends realised from
the sale of bonds;'Wntdd huntrelbeinmstructlein

turn of any considerable aii;ii.unt of , weary, un
til a sufficient amount shall be re.:Vd to pike

"That the money can be raised, the wealth of
the people to be most benefited attests: It only
needs urgent.and persistent action on the part of.
the friends of the enterprise, and we will soon
