"''way Bvmj.,.. ,
' ' We copy tbe following intelligent letter
on an important railway surrey from the
United, States Railroad and Minwff Reg-
tMer.-'i- . '.'-. ';';. . ;v '
.r:';' Ckjteal Pennsylvania, July 3, J8G6.
w- The great railway survey made under the
r annpicea of the Atlantic and Great Western
.Railway Company, by Col. James Worrall,
consulting engineer, and Col. Jarrett, Mr.
, Milnor Roberta and Major Kubridge, asso
. ciate, engineers, : we understand, has been
' fully completed and reported upon. "S ,
- As thU was a British enterprise, the in
tervention of the British commercial panic
may " interfere to retard construction upon
1 these lines ; yet the developments made by
. the surveys cannot but be ot greater value,
eventually, to Pennsylvania. The talent
engaged in the operation is eminently Penn
sylvanian, as the well-known names above
Suoted will show? and the 1 results may be
epended upon for who should better un
derstand the contour of Pennsylvania than
)ur own Pennsylvania engineers ?
' The line commencing at the west at a
point on the Atlantic and Great Western
railway, some four miles west of West Green
ville (in Mercer county,) moves eastward by
way of Sandy lake, Big Saudy, East Sandy,
Beaver Creek, the Clarion river, and Corsi
. tra to BrookviHe ; then up the Sandy Lick
to its head waters. Here the choice of two
- lines (a northern and a southern alternate)
-is presented.
The Northern line takes Bennett's Brant h
, of the Sianeuiabouing to its mouth at Drift
wood, following the Sinnemahoning to its
mouth, and then the West Branch of the
Susquehanna river, occupying its poiCbn of
the valley through which the Philadelphia
and Erie railroad is constructed, from Drift
wood all ihe way to Milton, . where it con
nects with the Catawissa railroad, finding at
that point a railroad connection with New
York, about 21:! miles long. " '
The southern alternate, from the heads
of Sandy t Lick before mentioned, takes
down Anderson's creek to the West Branch
of the Susquehanna at CurwensviUe, thence
down that stream to Clearfield ; then, by
Clearfield creek and a branch thereof, makes
its way to Phillipsburg. and so across the
Alleghany mountain to Bellefonte, whence,
rounding the point of Nittany mountain, it
reaches Lewisburg via Perm's and Buffalo
valleys, connecting there by a short exten-
sion with the Catawissa railroad. The two
lines, singular to say, are almost identically
the same in length something over 270
miles. . ' " , .;.. : , .
. But the northern line has much the ad
vantage in the summation of rises and falls;
for, after leaving the head-waters of Ander
son, the northern lino nlwava teuvnrU nn-
til it reaches Milton, whilst the southern.
line deeeiuU to Clearfield, ascends and de
scends to Phiiiipsbrg, and ascends and de
scends the Alleghany 1 mountain to Belle
fonte, and meets at least one more summit
before it reaches Lewisburg.
On the. southern line the, grade of 51.8
feet per mile is transcended, in more than
one locality, going both east and west;
whilst on the northern line that ratio is nev
er . exceeded, in a direction either with or
against the preponderating trade. ' Although
both these lines pass through coal lands for
nearly a hundred miles, yet the heaviest
veins being the further south, are better ac
commodated by the . more southern than
they are on the tuyie northern line ; and
taking thU into consideration, it may be
doubted which would . prove the most re
munerative as an initiatory line.
- Both lines should be, and will, eventually,
be built, and this survey, we think, will
prove that both can be built for a less sum
than'it was at first ' estimated a single line
between the termini proposed would cost.
; It would be esteemed a Utopian idea to
build both together ; yet, if they can be
built, as we understand they can, for a cost
falling considerably short of $40,000 per
mile, we know of no enterprise more prom
ising than this ; and this without consid
ering the saving of distance to New York
which this line effects, as against the lines
which leave our northern borders for that
city. The t mineral wealth developed by
this great line, and the consequent opening
up of such a vast area ot primeval forest to
agriculture , and general business, would
prove prodigally remunerative, without con
sidering strategic cut-offs. ' We have given
distances enough in this, letter, between
well-known points accessible by railway, to
anord your readers an opportunity to ascer
tain how the new line, say from Cincinnati
to New York; and Philadelphia, compares
with the old.
This is a railway enterprise of the' first
class,' and would be of infinite importance to
a vast undeveloped area of our great Com
monwealth. . It is to be regretted, if it ever
was the intention of the British capitalists
to carry it out, that anything should have
occurred to prevent their . doing so, tor it
may be some time before a party of capital
ists can be found who would freely invest
ten or, twelve millions,, promise the invest
ment never so flatteringly. '
