-.-. Sept. II, 1858,
MY DEAR SIR-The entire occupation Of
my time in the labors committed to my
charge have heretofore precluded the pos
sibility Of my writing you. Knowing the
deep interest you take in the development
Of the resources Of the great western coun-
try, the growth and advancement of our
whole national domain, the proper knowl-
edge Of the regions lying between the Mis-
sissippi Valley and the Pacific, feel conf
dent that you win be pleased TO hear what
we have done toward accomplishing the ex-
ploration Of the northern route, and what
may be done in this direction toward estab-
fishing great iron railway between the
two oceans
The plan Of carrying on the survey from
the head waters of the Mississippi to Pu-
get Sound was by two parties The one
operating from the Pacific eastward to the
Rocky Mountains was regarded as the
most difficult labor Of the survey, in conse-
quence Of the obstacles known to exist in
the Cascade apd Bitter Root ranges. To
overcome these almost insurmountable bar
riers, the proper examination of either Of
which would occupy whole season, Capt.
George B. Mcclellan, of the engineer
corps, was placed in charge of this portion
Of the work. He brings TO It not only
great energy and force of character, but an
experience and talent in this branch of duty
perhaps unequaled in the whole army
Entering upon his labors with that aIacrity
and interest most peculiar to him, much is
looked for from his branch of the survey.
In 80 days from this time ] shall prob
ably meet him, and combining our joint Ia
bOrs we shall have a line connecting the
Mississippi River with the Pacific passing
through these ranges On the feasibility
Of line across the continent we will then
be able to give definite opinion.
