prscloted east Of this point. A gentleman
from indianapolis was in our city this
morning making inquiries with regard to
the prospect for such connection, as II is
regarded as extremely important to the
"Central Illinois and Indiana Road" This
road is looked upon in the East, also. with
great interest, and there will be no difficulty
in obtaining stock there for road tat it
is so evident would pay well. The road
may be built without a charter; but It Is
probable that charter will DO granted at
the mex. session Of tho Legislature, rs the
opposition to It seems to be dying away.
The following will be found interesting, as
II shows the progress of tho great Central
Road, and the condition Of public sentiment
in Springfield:
CENTRAL AND lLLANoIS AND INDIANA Roam.
We have received The following inior.
nation concerning this important road, in
which the citizens OF Springfield and San.
CANON County are deeply Interested.
Two surveys have been made from De.
cantur to Indianapolis, by which the dis.
lance in an air line is nscertained to be Ids
miles. The Report Of the Engineer will
soon be ready for publication, containing
estimates for the entire cost OF construc
| ton, and equipment Of the road.
A few weeks since the two companies which
were most particularly concerned in tho enter.
prise, were CONSOLIDATED and Board Of direo.
tors appointed, consisting Of SIX in thiI State
and six in Indiana,
Judge Roach has accepted tho Presidency Of
the Board, having resigned his seat upon the
bench OF the Supreme Court of Indiana for that
purpose. Governor Wright, and other dstin-
guiShed citizens of Indiana are actively Engaged
in behalf Of this road, and strong efforts will be
made to complete il at an early period.
This road will be one OF the great highways
Of the nation. 1t will be in direct line with
