Eveuing.Brilletinj INTAsmrort, June , 2s.—The following im portant report vas 'submitted, to=day, by the Hon. Isaac 13. Morris, one of the Commis 4*mm appointed to examine the unaccepted ,portions of the Union Pacific Railroad To Ilis - Ereellepen U.. 4. Grant, President of the United Motes—Mu. PRESIDENT: On the 13th . iday of March last, your Excellency tendered me an appointment as one of the Commis oners" to examine and report to the President .of the Uhited - States upon the road and tele graph line of the Union Pacific Railroad Corn; pany, as 'contemplated and specified by" "an act to aid in the construction of a railroad and telegraph line froth the Missouri river to the 'Pacific ocean; bud to secure the. Government .thewse of the Same for postal, military and ether purposes." Accompanying your letter of appointment 7* as a communication of the Hen. J. D. Cox, "Secretary of the Interior, in which he says: "In case .you accept the appointment you will be guided in the discharge of your duties, as Commissioner, by the instructions embodied in the report of a Board convened to deter mine on the standard for construction of the Pacific Railroad, dated Feb. 24th, 1866, a copy of which is herewith transmitted." From the tenor of these documents I sup pose that/in making my report I am to look `both to the law and the standard of construc tion embodied in the proceedings of the Board. The fourth section of the charter of the Com pany provides, among other things, "That -whenever said Company shallhave completed forty consecutive utiles of any portion of said railroad and telegraph line, ready for the ser vice contemplated by this act, and supplied with all necessary drains, culverts, viaducts, 'closings, 'sidings, bridges, turnouts, watering places, depots, equipments, furniture and all other appurtenances of a first-class railroad, The rails and all other iron- used to be of 'American thanufacture,of the best quality—the President of the United States shall appoint three commissioners to examine the same and report to him in relation thereto; and if it shall appear to him that forty consecutive miles of said railroad and telegraph line have been 43ompleted and equipped in all respects as re quired by this act, then, upon certificate of said commissioners to that claret, patents shall issue conveying the right and title to said lands to said Company on each side of the road as far as the same is completed, to the amount aforesaid; and patents shall in like manner is sue as each forty miles of said railroad and telegraph line are completed, upon certificate -44 said commissioners." It will be seen that by this provision Congress contemplated and provided for the -Construction only of a "first-class railroad in all respects," though it failed to specify in every detail what should constitute a first-class road. . It also provided that, until the Commission ers reported that such a railroad had been con structed by the Company, the lands granted in aid thereof should not be conveyed. The law is explicit on this point. The fifth section of the Charter is equally explicit that "upon the certificate in writing of said Commissioners of the completion and equipment of forty con secutive miles of railroad and telegraph line in accordance with this act," the "Secretary of the Treasury shall issue to the- said Com pany bonds of the United States, of one thou sand dollars each, payable in thirty years after date, bearing six per cent. interest (said in terest payable semi-annually), which interest may be paid hi United States Treasury notes, •or such other money as Congress may have declared or shall declare lawful money, and a legal tender, to the amount of sixteen of said bonds per mile for such section of flirty miles." The said fifth section also provides that upon the issue and delivery of said bonds to the Company, they "shall ipso facto constitute a first mortgage on the whole line of the rail road and telegraph, together with the rolling stock, fixtures, and property of every kind and description;" and in consideration of which said bonds were only to be issued by the terms of the act, thus showing that Congress was careful that the railroad should not only be a "first-class one," but the Company was to have no bonds until a first-class railroathyas.built; (aid farther, not until their payment was se cured. HenCe, 1 should regard myself as criminally negligent, if I failed to "report," as ,you instruct me in your letter, "upon the road and telegraph line of the Union Pacific Rail road Company, as contemplated by said acts" —meaning the acts providing for its construc tion. The law is much broader and more com prehensive than the ,"standard of construc tion," and is of course the goYerning power. It admitS of no compromise with its pro visions. The sixteen thousand dollars per mile pro vided for in the 4th section of the charter was changed by the 11th section to sixteen thou sand - dollars, thirty-two thousand dollars, and forty-eight thousand dollars per mile for cer tain distances, in a manner so artful that no one, on reading the law, can tell what it means. Extraneous facts must be resorted to as the key to unlock it. A tabular statement which I shall insert in a subsequent part of my report will show the number of miles upon which $48,000 were paid per mile; the number upon which $32,000 were paid per mile,and the number upon which $lO,OOO were paid per mile. It is a strange feature of legislation that there should exist two provisions upon precisely the same point of the same law, conflicting di rectly with each other. Yet such is the - fact. I have not been able to find any change in any act I have examined more favorable to the Government, but numerous ones more favora ble tO the coinpanies. Whether this was wise can be more readily determined by the 'nets disclosed in the sequel. In view of the omission in the charter to specify all the details of construction, the Bon. James Harlan, then Secretary of the In- terior, convened a _ Board of Government Commissioners, directors and an engineer, to determine on a standard for the .Pacnic Rail road and branches; It is better,perhaps, with a view to a m d ore intelligent unerstand ing of the subject, to %nide. such material parts of the requirements fixed upon by the Board as hear more directly upon that part of the road which I was charged with the duty of examining in part. I.ll.lter quoting the requirements of this Board, Commissioner Morris goes on to say :1 Whet-her tlie—standavt--fixed- upon, by the- Board is a matter which a Commissioner is adowed to look into, may be regarded as pro blematical. But 1 cannot refrain from saying it seems strange that the Board should desig nate what materials it was necessary to use in the construction . of. a :.first-class", railroad "in all respects," and 'Olen concede that if the Company could not obtain such materials conveniently, inferior articles :might be used! The /nib makes no such con cession, and if it had it never could have been passed. It-is stated, for example, that culverts ;aid abutments •t'or bridges should be of • , stone," without specifying what kind of stone -Ashould-bo-usedixeept-to--add-the- vague term ".desirable article" (indefinite, to be sure), "'when it can be obtained within reasonable distance, say from live to eight miles." Again, it is stated that oak or other "suit Ole" timber should be used for eros.s-ties "whe4 it can be ohnuned with reasonable transportation." What Would be "reasonable transportation" is not defined', nor have the commissioners any jurisdiction over the question. They can only report on materials used and the condition of the read, met then the law determines whether -the road has been built in compliance with its provisions. .

Mile-y(44, the qiortion, which he, laid under examination. ~ He-.pre ' faces these, details' With the remarks "The great error was in allowing- two comf panics to build the road—one on the Pacific slope and one on this side—without Congress having fixed the point at which they should , meet. T Thegrants of land? .and , Government subsidies were enormous, and whichever com pany built the. greatest number of miles of 'road would get the most of each. Hence there was an emulation, arising from a consideration of pecuniary advantage, which stimulated each to almost superhuman effort, and finally culminated in au open rup ture; requiring , Congressional intervention. Gangs of men were worked. day and night, 'nd on the Sabbath the saine as any other day. Time was too precious to incur delay in pro curing the best material or performing the • work in the best manner. The great primary °idea of the companies was money, and this fact is patent from what I havejuststated,and must be made more manifest by dine. The road s by the charter, was to be- completed by the first clay ofJuly,lB76. But its completion was annomiced in .May,. 1869. This may be Ameriimn enterprise, or it May be. American recklessness. "That a railroad connecting the Atlantic with the Pacific States is a great desideratum, no one will questiOn. But that road should be as goottas any, if not the best in the world. Con gress, as has been shown, intended it should -be so, or otherwise that body would not have endowed it so liberally. Its object was one of patriotism—to estalthSli great Commercial and social highway between the two sections of the ;Union. The object Of the builders was, of course, profit. I suppose it is my duty to speak. of, the road as I saw it, and not as it may in the futUre be made; by whom, is . an:- other question. A person traveling over it to or from the Pacific Ocean, transported with the idea that lie can now Make a journey in a few days which hitherto required from four to six weeks, knows but little more than .thiS of the work." Mr. Morris proceeds to report the condition of the eighty-six miles over which he traveled, representing it 'its being, in a large degree, dangerous to travel and very imperfect in construction. He concludes his voluminous details by saying : However important or unimportant these details, they cannot affect the great truths I shall now state: First—The read is not,as the law requires, a "first-class road." Second-L-11, is not supplied with the necessary buildings. Third—lt has not safe and suhstantial bridges. Fourth—The tunnels are iiiriVide enough for a double track,. I Filth—The road-bed at the grade line is not of a uniform Width of fourteen feet, ner has it been properly leveled, nor the rails ,tikellt—Especially would it be extremely dangerous for heavy trains to pass over the western portion of the road. Seventh—The ties have sunken in in any institriees, some times at one end and sometimes entirely, the dirt being washed from under them; this is, more generally the case on embankments:\ Miles upon Miles of them were laid during the winter, while the - fi . ost was in the 'oround. The rails, consequently ; have an uneven bear ing, and, in numerous instances, are bent,aud appear, as you -look back upon them, like a succession of small waves. 1 saw, however, a number of men at several different points engaged in raising the ends of the ties and packing dirt wider them, so as to level the track as far as that would do it. Two con siderations remain which I deem of more im portance than others : ITMENI First—The road is not ballasted, nor is any part of it. True, hands have been, and are now here and there employed in throwing , a few shovels of such material as the road-bed is composed—taken in all cases from the sides of the embankments, where they exist—be tween the ties. But this I submit is no com pliance with the provision under the head of "ballasting" established by the Board con vened to fix upon a standard of construction. I leave this branch of the subject without further comment. The facts speak for them selves too plainly to be misinterpreted. CROSS-TIES Cross-ties are laid with great irregularity on the bed of the road. They appear, indeed, to have been pitched on and the rails spiked to them wherever they fell, provided they did not fall too far apart. No attention appears to have been paid to regularity of distance between the ties, they varying from 15 to '2i; inches, the distance at the ends being rarely uniform, and the space between them present ing not frequently a quadrilateral figure of equal sides and unequal ends. This may be just as well for Safety, yet it shows great care lessness and want of order. The material ob jection is, however, to the ties themselves. They are of soft white pine on the road I ex amined as well as on the Central Pacific, the first being obtained from the neighboring mountains-, -and the latter from the Sierra Nevada. I transmit with my report a specimen of each, which 1 obtained at Promontory Summit. The ties, as I have stated, are all white pine, there being none of oak or other desirable wood used at the joints, and none of them are Burnettized or Kywnized. Their average face, should judge from a number I measured, is about• six and a half inches. Whether such ties were ever before used on any other road lam not advised. Cedar has been used, and while it lasts well in the ground, experience has shown it will not hold spikes. White pine will soon rot on the surface or in the ground; it is easily destroyed by heat or dampness, and is consequently affected by both the winter's snows and the summer's sun. Even in the dry latitude of Salt Lake it is not possible for it to last long. There are these three objections to the ties, one beinrr ' their liability to speedy rot; one,the softness of the wood being so great it will not hold a spike; the other, they were neither Burnettized or Kyanized according to the standard of construction. Dl= 1 do not regard it the duty of a Commis= sioner to pass judgment an the en g ineering of the road. tihould l ie undertake to do that, it would require more labor than he could well perform. if the Government desires to ascer tain whether "grades and curves have been settled upon principles of true economy and adaptation, based upon 'careful and scientific investigation, having a due regard both to cost of construction and future working of the road," the only way to dott is to send out on the road a beard of able engineers, and give them ample time to perform the labor. A true profile of the road will show its windings to be Iftequent, on its western portion especially, and in instances great. Perhaps they might nave been less. How many locomotive engines and cars are attached to the read, I had no Means of aseer tiaming. They are so scattered at different points that. a Commissioner could hardly ob tain th - e infohnation. As far as I could judge, the road seemed to be fairly supplied with stock. 1.. saw a number—of--freight—ca rs wrecked by the side of it; still, a large number was:. left, distributed at different points. As the local business of the road is small and must remain so for years, in consequence of passing through an unpeopled country, I do not believe its business requires more freight cars at present. More passenger coaches and locomotives could be used to a,t vantage, especially the former. . THI: TELEGRAPH' The telegraph consists of a single wire stretched along the road, b - with temporary °dices at the different stations, but answering the purpose for the present. THE ROAM 1 met on Promontory Summit a leading cit izen of California, who has been front the first connected with the-Central Pacific Road, and we traveled together for a number' of miles. In our conversation, be Stated that the road (I understood him to mean the whole of it) was about two-thirds done,and that it would require from two to three years to finish and place it in,good order, and that CongreSs should have retained one-third of the subsidies until it was finally completed. I concur in the views ho expressed, except in this—that his estimate is low. 'lt was provided in the charter for : re taining in the Treasury from fifteen to twenty tive per cent. of the bouds„ to insure the com pletion of the road, but this, like every other salutary provision enacted to protect the pub; THE DAILY EVENING BUIALETIN-PHILADELPHIA, SATURDAY, JUNE 26,.1869. interest,lk:e yielded_to the power of the corpo --miotigfeSS- liffilertirele -7 71V - - lißrifedy ads _mistake by the ; passage , of, the is ~.:;resolution of Alril loth; 18691 Whieb. provides: ' TI, at the President IS hereby antlioriz,ed, and required to from each of said companies aiianikrinit of. , ..subsidy lieirdS; the.-United - Statesaiitlibritedlinie-filittedlty .7under said acts (tdea.nifigAdts for: the, construction of the PaCifieltailioaAisndefent to,. insure -the fpll completiOoas 'a first-class roieref all sections of StieliAVad on which bonds have already been issued; or in lieu of such:bon& he may receiVeAs such security an eqnal amount of first mortgage bonds of such, company.

Is not the efiat one to lock the door 'after the loss has been sustained? General Warren esti mates that it will yet requite - expeuliture of $11,000,000 to perfect the roads; and •n on this basis there are only about all& ugh' of nndefivered bonds to effect the n r iose. These bends are ;claimed to be due for work recently executed', and altogether are not more than • enough to pay: the interest advanced by. the • GoVernment ,to the corn panies,from whom nothing can bp gained by engaging in a systeM of barter tis.'Proposed by the resolution. Why should :the companies want the government bondS instead of their own, unless they were 'to , gaiA,:by their ex change? Theproposition. a remarkable one. If the roads are sold under a decree of foreclosure, and Should not bring enough—as they would not-=to realize the par value of the bonds, there Would of course be aloss on them. They are not even host .worth in greenbacks but about ninety cents on the dollar, and when the government bonds are paid out, and these bonds are taken in their place, it is an acknow ledgment of one of two things either that the bonds of the railroads are intrinsically worth more than the government bends, or that Congress has made a present to the com panies of the difference in favor of the govern ment bonds, and incurred a liability to pay in terest besides. The Attorney-General is power less in the premises. He his no authority to force the companies to return bonds which have been paid to them, and it-is not at all likely 'they will stand hi much fear of him. There is, however, a remedy for the Government, which will be subsequently pointed out. There is a vast difference between getting rails down so that cars can pass over them, and finishing a toad. And, as We are compelled to compete with European lines of transportation, the Pacific. road never should have been used until it was completely fin ished; for a partly finished. road, if put into use, aconires a reputation which it will take years to correct. So much has been said and, so lunch written about the condition of this' road that the very contradictions have de prived it of even what credit it is entitled to. We Must have a road to the Pacific; and this road should be perfected. It passes over a line of country for 1,086 miles, as far as I traveled on it, which, for feasibility of con struction, considering , its length f is unequalled in the world. But very few. formidable ob stacles intervene. Plain after plain, valley after valley, plateau after plateau, open upon the eyes as the cars speed along; and, while one will see towering Masses of rocks at a distance on the Black. Hills, he will see very slight cuts through them. Then, again, when the Wasatch Mountains are reached, they do not,like the Alleghanies,present in the main one unbroken mass, but valleys open between them, and these valleys are always reached and de scended by following the easy grade of some `stream. I doubt if there are twenty-five miles of heavy cutting in the whole distance. It is almost one continuous natural road-bed. The facts which I have just stated, and others which I have presented in a former part of may report, demanded of the Company a "first class road in all respects." I will, however, state others bearing on the same point, premi sing what I shall add with the remark that the Government should keep its faith with the Company and require . the Company to keep faith with it. If promises are to be taken on trust, let it be those Of the Government, not those of the Company. The charter of the COMpany provides that, the government bonds should be a first lien on the road; rollingstock; -- etcwthat no-more-than every alternate section of land for ten miles on each side of the read should be given, and that payment of bonds should only be made when forty miles were finished. No permis sion was conferred on the Company to issue mortgage bonds at all. In this case,as in sim ilar ones, the Company went back to Con gress, nut to surrender any right they had ac quired, for corporations never do that, but to ask additional grants and privileges. They asked that / the government bonds be made a second; lieu upon the road, and that they he. .allowed to issue mortgage bonds in amount equal to government bonds, and that these mortgage bonds issued by them selves should be the first lien; that they should have every alternate section of land for twenty miles on each side of the road, instead of ten, and that they should receive bonds when each twenty miles of . the road was done instead of when each fortv. The legislative body, Un fortunately for the country, granted their re quest. The result will he a sale of the road on the Company's mortgage bonds, which are a first lien, and the Government will get noth ing unless it prevents itself being made a party to the proceedings, and' thus forces a settle ment or. a compromise, which; however, would amcamt to little or nothing in the end, for it would yield everything in the contro versy. Ten or fifteen millions of the Compamv's mortgage bonds will fall into the hands of some one,—how can be imagined. The interest will not be paid; the bonds will be foreclosed, mid who is to bid against the holder of them, rep resenting, as he will, a powerful moneyed in terest? No one. The Government cannot do it. if it owned. the road, ninety per cent. of its earnings would be stolen. No individual would have the means of doing it, and while the Government will lose the amount of her bonds, the holders of the mortgage bonds, who will not be shrewd capitalists, but unsuspect ing widows and minors, will lose from fifty to seventy-five per cent. on their bonds, because they will only receive upon them a pro rata of what the road sells for..[ am only writing here the experience and history of the past, and' what interest prompts men to do. Whether - the7present Company opera(' the road or not (many believe •it is not their' pur pose to do so), the result will be snb stantially the same. The great object will be to get clear of the Government lien by fore closure and sale under the mortgage bonds. This will be done, unless the Government, as I have already suggested, refuses to allow itself to be Made a party to the chancery proceed ings, or unless the suggestions contained in the follewing paragraph are acted on. They are of the highest importance to the whole coun try: . : The amendatory act of July 2, 18(11, subordi nates the Government lien, secured by the Charter, to the mortgage bonds issued by the Company. The twenty-second and last section of that act declares "that Congress may at any time alter, amend or repeal this act." The words "at any time" may perhaps be re garded as subject to some limitation. The ourts may hold (I even doubt this) that this salutary protective clause would not apply after the completion of the road, or _more certainly after its acceptance by the Govern ment. -- Ilefore - thattimethere question but it follows the mortgage bonds wherever they go. No. matter in whaSe hands the borids are found, the plea that they are held vinno cent parties, so often interposed, cannot avail.

The title of the resolution. would seem to estab lish WA conclusion.. 'lt is as follows : • • "Joint resolution for the protection of the interest . of.the United States in the Union Pacific Railroad Company, and for other pur poses." The "interest" of the Government is now at tracting attention, and it IS to be - hoped that consideration will be sufficient to lift railroad • matters out of the grooVe which they- have• been running... Something for the people and not everything .for corporations. • . if the subsidies should be all paid and the. lands conveyed now, the railroad companies would have no inducement to go on and finish their roads. Gm, the contrary, it•would be for their interest to .keep them only in . passable running order, even if they intended to ope rate them in the future, - -until a sale. is made on a portion of • the mortgage bonds and the'gov eminent lien extinguished, for the ' reason that the worse condition the road is in the less it'' will' bring. The temptation to do thins is too great to bp resisted.' Wiping out an ineum brance of • some fifty' odd millions of dollars on the roads when. it can be done by short chancery proceeding, .is an advan tage railroad men will . not •be, sloW to see and avail :themselves of. The practice of Government and communities furnishing the means to build -railroads, and:then' allow ing those who take the contract to buildthem, without investing, a , dollar -of their private means, to Own theM after they . are built, is not a very wise'systeth of- linanctering on the one hand, but exceedingly 'shrewd - - on the other. There is still another and more power ful argument why the railroad companies should be held to the strict letter of the con tract and receive no more special favor. They - are not released from the provision of the sixth section of the/ charter, Which requires • them to pay at maturity the principal and in- ' terest of the Government bonds; only from the rovisions of the' fifth section,' making the p bends a first lien. • The following statement will show the amount of bonds issued on each mile of the road, or to be issued: UNION PACIFIC The Eastern base of the Rocky Mountains was fixed at a point 52.5.078 miles west of Omaha, on the sand plains. 525.978 tailed a 5q6,000 .98,401,248 ILO ilee a $48,000 7,M0.000 n 4.922 miles a 6 1 32,000 10.397494 1000mi1es $25,9 , 36.762 ksrom the 1,000 mile-post to Promontory Sum mit, a distance of 86 miles, bonds have net been issued, neither has ft been decided as to which Compansovill be entitled to receive • them.

These bonds aggregate $9,851,320. Add the amount to. the 503,115,872, and the retadt is $64,967,192, as the amount of railroad bends issued by the Go vernment. The different companies to whom the bonds were issued now owe the Govern inent-$3,334,96310r .interest_they_should haVe, paid on the bonds, but which the Government was compelled to pay for theM to preserVe its credit. From this what may be expected in the future ? If the Companies cannot now with all the immense resources with which they have been supplied pay the interest on the Government bonds,how ean they here after pay interest on all the' bonds? I will not, however, run over in detail the whole question of finances as connecteu with the main road and branches. • The Union Pacific is enough for illustrative purposes. The tab ular statement given shows that the road has received or is to receive in Go vernment bonds $28,750,752. its mortgage bonds amount to precisely the same, so that the whole bonded debt of the wad is or will be $57,401,504. Divide $28,750,752 by 1,086, the length of the road, and it will show the average paid upon it per mile in Government bonds to be $26,473 98. This is or should be more than its actual cost. To illustrate, I will state that General M. F. Hurd, of Grinnell, lowa, one of the engineers engaged on the work, informed ' me that ; it cost. $3,000 per mile on, an average (it would not cost over $1,500 in the States), to grade the road in Salt Lake Valley for 53 8-10 miles—that the average cost of the ties was ninety cents a piece, or $2,340 for twenty-six hundred, the number used per mile—that the iron cost, on the ground, $lOO per ton—that a hundred tons were used per mile, costing $lO,OOO, and that it cost $6OO per mile to lay the track. Add these several stuns together, and they give $15,940 per mile a.s.the actual cost, while the Company receives $32,000 per mile trom the Government. The $15,940 do not include an allowance for rolling stocks telegraph, etc., bet deduct $6,000 per nnle for this purpose, and there remains $9,940 per mile: Still add to this the mortgage bonds for $32,000 per mile, first deducting $O,OOO , per mile to be expendel for telegraph, rolling-stock, etc., making the whole allowance to be used for such purpose, $12,000 per mile, and add the remainder, $26,000 per mile and the $9,940 together, and it will show a surplus of 535,940 per mile above the cost of the road. This re sult Will enable a man of ordinary intelligenceto deteriffine whether the members of the Com panypaid anything out of their own pockets to build it. But take the average per mile for the whole°distance of 1,086 miles, furnished in GovernMent bonds, viz.: $26,473 98—and who doubts but this of itself was sufficient to build and equip the road, and to construct a line of telegraph? and there is still left s32,ooo:per mile in mortgage bonds in the hands of the Com pany, • making in all $34,752,000 for.: the whole length of the road; - `1;08(1 `flick; figures are drawn from experience and reason. The exact amount made by the Com pany will never be known - , for it will never be to its advantage that it should be. The com ..pany receives, besides these bonds from the . Government, every alternate section • of the land-on-each side of the road for twenty miles, aggregating for the 1,086 miles, if it followed a directine (as it does not, it will be somewhat less), 13,900,800 acres, or 12,800 acres per mile which, at $3 per acre, amounts to $41,702,400: Add this - amount-to the $34,752,000 of bonds, and we have a sum total of $75,454,400—en0ugh to make seventy-five individuals milk lionaires.

This is:what is called in this country the enterprise of capital and its investment for tln public gtiod. It. may he a misnomer. if Congress made a bail batgain, lam MAIM. repudiating it. I think, however, that government should protect its interests by availing itself of all reserved rights, and insisting upon a rigid coin finance upon the part of the - companies with their arrangements, before anything more is paid or the hinds patented. There is cer tainly nothing wrong in this. The right to pass over the roads,such asthey are, by paying forit, is all the people wilLget for the enor mous amounts they . have been compelled to contribute for their construction, and they are certainly entitled to have a "first-class" road "in all respects," that they may be assured of life and limb. Umoilial care should be taken fn operating . this road, as well as hi construct ing it, for it a serious calamity should happen to a passenger train, it would be almost impos sible to obtain medical aid and proper shelter forthe wounded, so sparsely is the country settled. .1. will add,, in conclusion, that on my return to Oinalla, I was shown a prepared re port, gotten up by an officer of the company, on the first section of 20 miles of the road west of .the last accepted section, setting forth that it was constructed in strict compliance with the law, and wit's told that other similar reports for the remainingsections were in pro gress of preparation; that such was the :teem wined way tor reports to be prepared for com missioners, and then they signed them. Not being satisfied that I could, without violation of ditty, adopt. the mud fOrin, and sign suclta paper, I have prepared this report for myself, as expressive of my own views. rEnsONAL. I regret being compelledto go over the road AVithollt ury amociates, in consequence of a misunderstanding of the time the COMMISSiOII was to meet at Omaha, growing Out of an un expected delay in instructions. I should have been highly gratified to have accompanied General Warren and Bon. .Jas. F. Wilson. As that pleasure was denied me, I was obliged to perform my duty by making the necessary ex amination alone. dot even the privilege of consulting either of these gentlemen, before this report was prepared, was afforded me. .1 therefore submit it for myself.

Its fame has already preceded its completion, nor :only, over the whole land front Nova Scotus to teica,S, but even to En rope, and curiosity alone willattract thousands of strangers to its portalit. Whether per, flay will attract theta inside its portals remain to be seen 'The fail that a prominent:and successffil hotel man ofNew, .York—Peter Gardner; Esei.lnts taken charge of it, has in duced large numbers of New Yorkers to engage rooms and visit the Capes this season.

Robeson has sustained hiniself in the latter office with dignity and distinction, and in some matters of very great concern to the State, has shown a firinnes.s and capacity well calculated to inspire confidence in his ability' to till any position. We have no hesitation in predicting that the duties of the high station to which he has been called by :President Grant, will he tilled with honor to himself and benefit to the country. Gen. Robeson, amongst oilier public acts, did good service during the war; not, it is true, in the active ditties of the field, but in the or ganization of troops, and the preparation and despatch of - recruits and voliiters: For his • activity in this department, and for his zeal and usefulness in the loyal cause, he was 'ap pointedßrigadier by G . overnor Olden.

Mr. ROl - .6son is Munarried, is inthe prime of life, and is universally esteemed for his abili ties and agreeable social character.
