or not materially exceeding them. Such is the
opinion of the Directors The Road, when COM
pleted, will be ninety miles in length The
having of the rail commences at Rome to be car
ried on continuously to its Northern terminus.

j. THOMPSON, EsQ.-Dear Sir The Erie Bank
has been refusing to pay specie on its notes for
some time past, unless small amounts, of say
$40 or SIS. The Bank keeps up small show OF
appearances by keeping their doors open one or
two hours per day. But few OF its notes are cir
culating in this vicinity; however there must be
r lot Of it out somewhere. We send you the
above not that we ever lost anything by this lnstl
tuition. but that the public may be aware.
Yours truly
