the distance several miles. The distance
!between Harrisburg anti Iluntingdon may by
this route be found to be only 106 miles, or
91 miles greater than by the une rebommen

miles of new road to be titnistnictert, while
I the Juniata route will inv..lve the making of
lUN miles. The Tiinnel on this line will
probablynot exceed 500 yards in length, and
if it is considered that ov the Juniata route
nearly 40 miles more of road mast be con
