Besides a road made now in that diiion would not re ceive the pas-engcrs or freight from the coun try in the vicinity of Brlndere, which would miiII continue on the old route to Easton, and all passengers for Sehooluy's Mountain, Belvi dere" and Wilkesbarre would be loM. With Belvidere for a terminus, all above it must coma down, and it would draw up all within see miles of Easton. It has'already been shown that if this road is made, there is every prospect of a large in terest on the investment from the present re sources of the country. Should the railroad which is now in contemplation from the coal rrjiions in Pennsylvania to the Delaware Wa ter Gap ever bo made, the charter under which the road is authorized to b constructed from Stanhope to Belvidere, will allow a lateral road io be made up the valley of the Delaware to meet the road from the eoal regions ; and as there is very Imlo fall in the Delaware, and no difficulties to be encountered on the route, this would be a most important extension as soon as the Pennsylvania road was completed. If the coal taken never reached New lork the supply for the Iron Works along the rail road from Belvidcre to Stanhope, and for the general supply of the country in the vicinity, would be a very considerable item m the re ceipts of the road. There are various other items which might be included in the estimates of the probable re ceipts of the contemplated road, but it is to be hoped enough has been stated to show that the prospects of a handsome return for the money invested, is as. great a that of any other rail load that has ever been projected in the coun try. .
