it would be continued through Indiana and
Jefferson counties. TO tap the Belfonte
and Erie turnpike. The trade and travel of
our North Western counties would then be
opened TO US. as this would be the most Access
sible point for the people of that reginn 10
reach our public improvements, and the Penn
sylvania Railroad now in course of constru C..
tion.
We have hastily thrown these suggestions
together, with the desire of directing the at .
tention of our citizens to the subject. and no G
it may To EN- imned with the care its Importance
demands. Let all the facts relative to the
construction. cost, repair. and pr oits of plank
roads, their durability &C., &C., be examined,
and will Cheerful lily aid in disseminating all
Information calculated to enligh;en public
opinion upon these new roads. 1t is said that
not single plank road has yet failed to pay a
good div idend, and if this is true, no business
in the world can show a similar instance of tho
fortuna te investment of ca ptal and labor.
The following article from the Ma adison IN.
y o bserver shows in a conclusive view the
invaluable advantages of these farmers rail
roads:
PLANK RoADs.-.4 fe,c Facts concern
ing their Cost and ProductiUeness.-
The Waterville and Utica Road, 10 miles
long, cost S4l ,O00-dividend just decla-
red ofIO per cent. payable to stockhold-
ers on the lst of May, and l0 per cent laid
by for repairs, &c.
Utica and Bridgewater Road, 20 miles
long, cost $40, ,000-pays 25 per cent re-
gularly.
The Boonville Road pays % per cent,
and the Whitestown Road about 25 per
cent.
There is one gratifying fact in relation
to plank roads, which cannot be said of
railroads, or canals, or steam boats, or
banks, as never-failing thing; it is this
those who have been interested in plank
roads and watched their progress, have
learned by experience, that no plank road
has yet been constructed, aOhich has
proved to be losing concern TO the
stOckholders-none which has not paid
more than the legal rates of interest on the
investment. Those also who are best
acquainted with plank roads are now pre-
pared to say, that it is impossible to build
one of these roads through a well settled
country, at any reasonable cost, which
will not pay to the stockholders more
than seven per cent. Experience has
shown that the people aoiW seek these roads
and acW use them; and unlike the railroad
they are an enterprise mutually beneficial
to the stockholders and the public.
