examination of the routes 20 connect the ALE

Fith the Commissioners of the State of Penn

James Clark.
On the western side of the .4ileghany noun

Cended the valley of the Allegheny river to
Frecport, the valley of the kiskir''tas, of the
Concmaugh, and Of tue little Concmaugh, as
far IFS heads.
tains they descended the valley of Bla;r's Gap
run, Frankstown branch, the Juniata, and the
Susquelannah, TO Harrisburg.
The best adapted summit level, appears 10
be, from the little Conemaue;h to Blar's Gap
run; those streams are considered most CON
venently situated to pass, IN that quarter, from
the western 10 the eastern side of the Allegheny
ridge. AT this place, both deep cutting and a
tupnell will be necessary the former may,
probably, require two and half miles on the
west side, and one mile on the east, say thirty
six feet deep: the tunnel, it r. apprehonded
will not be less than four miles in E,ngth
