COMPLETION OF THE AUBURN RAvINE TURN
pkr-We are pleased to learn that this
important thoroughfare is about completed,
and will, in few days, be opened at all
points for the accommodation of the travel
ing public. OF its value to Auburn we have
before spoken, and the facilities it will extend
to teatnsters and citizens of the different
portions Of the county. That portion Of the
road and its branches, that has been opened
some time, from Auburn to Oaks and the
Mountaineer House, on the Sacramento road
IS in fine condition, being firm and smooth,
and very inviting to those who like to travel
at two-forty pace.
From Auburn to the Illnoistown, Yankee
.Jim's and Nevada roads, the track will soon
be worn smooth. The prospect for conside
rable business over this pike is quite hatter-
ing, as teamsters by travelling it, avoid pas
sing over a great deal Of rough and hily
country.
The entire length of the road and its
branches is fifteen miles. A further extern
sion is to be made to Gold Hill this season.
RAILROAD SuRvEY.-The citizens Of Au-
burn subscribed literally toward survey of
q wagon road over the mountains; but as the
Committee intend returning their money to
them, we would suggest to the subscribers,
that instead of putting the money again in
their pockets, that it be expended in the
survey, by competent engineer, Of railroad
line from Auburn, by the nearest and most
practicable route, to point on the surveyed
line Of the Sacramento Valley Railroad from
Folsom to Bear River. We all know that
sufficient business can be concentrated at
Aubnrn to make paying business for a
sailroad-now, let it be ascertained how
good route we have, and what the i'm
provement will cost. Does the suggestion
meet the views of our readers?
