MILITARY ROAD TO FoRT SMITH.-Sone weeks ago

party OF twelve men, commenced the reconnaissance OF

States arsenal below this city, and running in the drsc.
ton OF Fort Smith, on the Arkansas river The survey

the Department of War, with view TO ascertain the
nearest and most practicable for road from this
city to Fort Smith, and the most direct and convenient
route of communicating with the Indian tribes in that
direction
The party, after proceeding with their explorations
and surveys 10 distance beyond the Merrmack river,
between twenty and thirty miles from this city, returned
day before yesterday, with the purpose, we under.
stand, OF taking westerly roue-the one first at.
tempted having been found TO be mpracticabe least
not sufficiently advantageous.
The opening of road from this city to the Indian ter
rtoes the head waters OF the Arkansas or the
indication OF a line which such road could with
facility be constructed would lead important and ben.
e6cial results to city. Not in drawing por-
ton OF the trade and travel from the temin Of the road
than in facilitating the communication with the vast and
fertile intermediate country.-H Louis Republican.
