Some tiine since an /Vet of -as-semblywasi
:pissed, for the laying out of ,a • road from
Diraocl:, Corners to the - Ladllawanna ' and
Western Bailroad, near the - Tunkhannca
station, which road' was subsequently laid
out. Last winter, at the instance ,of Some
body, a bill was passed, authorizing a re-view
of theiald road, and if deemed best, to chanfte
•
its location so as to terminate at lop-Bot
tom, instead of Tanklumnock Station. Who
kid the getting up`of the project We do not
, know, but that the lon. Speaker had the
1 appointment of the viewers is too evident to
admit of a doubt. The road, as finally laid
by the viewers is about . eight 'Miles long ;
and had Men - -of experience and judgmen
living near the, line of, the road; been i
, ap
pointed, the cost would have been from fif4
teen to tWenty-five j dollars. But in that case`
the fruitslof the enterprise would have beer
' all lost. Lis great men, have peculiar way§ l
of doing things, this road Was to bean exZep-i
Lion to the, general, rule: E. 'Shafer, the ftk,i
ther-in-lair of the Hon. .spe.aker, was
one of the view • A. J. Davis, - al
lawyer at ISusquetranna' Depot, - some,, thirtyir

,constitui
ted the - third man. To' these was adde
0. S. Beebe Es 9., who was no doubt indebtt,
ed for bislappomtment to the fact that dick..
was no surveyor in the funzily.

'was made in duo forni, and the followin

I‘. The. winter previous to our, election to th
