The corps of efigiuccrs to whom was
entrusted the survey of a route for a
canal from Richmond, Va., td the Ohio
river at I'oint Pleasant, have' reported
favorably. Here is their conclusion :
First, that it is entirely practicable to
connect the waters cf the James river
and the Ooio river by a water naviga
tion of seven feet in depth. The tun
nel that will be required would be about
tha same lentil as that in Mount Ceuis,
but it will go through rock very easily
excava'.cd, and could be drircn from
shafts if moderate height, aud at dis
tances seldom exceeding one mile ; sec
ondly, that an ample water supply can
be conimaudtd : thirdly, that the tun
nel would be a single tunnel with turn
cuts proviJ.d in suXicent numbers to
admit of vessels passing ; fourthly, that
the proposed water line can be com
pleted iu six years at a cost not cx
cecding $69,000,000, an 1 that the cost
may reasonably be expected to be with
in $55,000,000, and may possibly not
exceed $50,000,000; laiflj, fbatiu tbe
opinion of the board this route presents
extraordinary claims as tbe means of

gives us, and is that which, perhaps,
most of cs Lave been wii ling to accept,
lie says :
"The Ketstone State If the
thirteen original State wer nrrnnfrprl

stone, six of the States lyiug north
and east of it, namely, New Hampshire,
Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connec
ticut, New York, and New Jersey ; and
six south and west of it, namely, Del
aware, Maryland, Virginia, North Car
olina, South Carolina and Georgia."
Rut the theory of our author pleases
not the citizens of other States. They
are jealous of their sister, and are un
willing tn permit her to wear tbe crown
which she so justly claims. And yet,
bad America failed to gain ber inde
pendence, after having once deciared it,
would they not charge ber with having
been the cause of our ruin T Uy their
present actions we judge them, not only
in this case, but in the preparation for
the approaching Centennial as well.
Many good things are said on all
sides in this volume and we advise any
wbo have not yet read it, to procure a
copy and read it, ami we believe that
you will feel rewarded for money in
vested and time spcut.
