er The wonder indeed is, considering tho
distance between the Atlantic and Pacific, and
the ambitious and adventurous spirits who
have pitch their tents upon tho waters Of the
latter, that there has been no movement here

and chiefly because of the want of an overland
route, IL should bc remembered moreover,
that distance IL not calculated to strengthen
the ties of affection, especially with New

of the excited and the enthusiastic, and with
an Intervening space of thousands OF miles
between the early homes OF boyhood and the
chosen abodcs of mnturcr years II is this

Mr. Kennedy, in an admirable report, sub.
mttod to Congress just before the close of the
list session, stated some views that deserve To
be repeated in this connection. lie says that
no scientific survey of any route west of the
frontier of Missouri has yet been made and il
is not probable that any can bc found that will
bring the line of travel between the Mississippi
and the ocean within the limit of sixteen

advantages of the enterprise, Thorough sur.

grcss, and the results viii be submitted tn the
next Congress If this road were completed,
and the route continued westward by steam
ship to Calcutta, IL would according TO Mr..
Kennedy, reduce the time required for the cir
cult of the globe by the American overland
route, to 80 days, as follows:
From San Francisco, 4 days.
