ence was The one was small sum, and the
other was an increase of a hundred and three
millions one hundred ard five thousand dollars.
There was q hundred millions of dollars added
to the value of the state Of New York. The
committee, when they saw this, and had the
evidence before them said: 1--WE will report
your bill" The Legislature passed it. We
were not beggars. We had given one bundled
and three millions to the State of New York,
and they were willing to leave US the paltry
three millions to arrange our business affairs
You may take the Milville s Glassboro road,
you may take the West Jersey road; both
established now for about ST years You may
examine your assessors books, and you will
find proportionate increase in this portion of
the State. So that the value of these rail-
roads go beyond the people who enjoy their
benefits in their marketing. 1t is to the State
itself that the great value accrues. When we
had determined upon the building of the Vine
land railway, we made up our minds not to
connect with any Company. without knowing
the precise terms and conditions of agreement,
We met the directors of the Delaware and Rar-
itan Bay road. and they acceded to all that we
had the face to ask They agreed that we
should have our representation in making the
time tables. &C., and that we should have
drawback of eigth per cent. upon oil the prop
erty passing over their portion of the line,
backwards and forwards between the Delaware
bay and New York. That eight per cent. is
large item in the estimation of our profits; we
think it is equal to twenty eight per cent. on
our gross earnings. We have another advant
age in the transportation of fertilizers to this
section of the country, at a merely nominal
cost. We don't think mari will cost more than
2 dollar a ton at Vineland, and this is
Squankum mari, the best in the country. We
have also made a contract with the Camden &
Atlantic railway, which secures us q Philadel-
phia connection, with the privilege of running
our cars right into the city of Camden. Our
arrangements with both companies, besides,
viii ensure the arrival Of our freight in New
York at o'clock in the morning.

such sc0rnful eyes. l merely mention these
things to show you that we have a basis for
future progress. You will scarcely find q dis
trict of country all over the continent that will
compare in productiveness with Cumberland
County. You may 60 West from Cleveland to
Council Bluffs, and you will not see better
crops than you will find here. A man ought to
travel west to appreciate this country He
ought to 90 to the El Dorado, the golden region
of agriculture, as it is fondly termed, and he
would find that in seeking It, he left the golden
region Of agriculture itself behind him.
Climate is as important as soil and we have
the best climate in the United States If you
go too far North you meet with the killing
frost; if further South, you cannot cultivate
grass and the cereals to the same advantage.
Now, if you gentlemen will consult the map,
you will find that both in the State of New
Jersey and the State of Delaware, every road
leads to Philadelphia. All our produce. be
yond that needed for home consumption, goes
first to Philadelphia. And yet Philadelphia is
not the place where that produce finds its ulti.
mate destination There is not a pair of
chickens sent from here to New York that does
not pay an enormous toll in PHILADELPHIA
There is not bushel of sweet potatoes that
does not pay toll to o class of men who are of
no interest or benefit to you. They stand in
the way as tax gatherers and toll gatherers,-
And the amount of toll now levied in Phila-
delphia upon the agricultural produce of til e
region affected by this Railway, would, in one
year, pay the entire cost of building the road.
if reduced to dollars and cents. Rs
You may have noticed how fayorably your
commercial Importance has been affected by
the building of the West Jersey aud Millville
and Glassboro' roads. They have raised the
value Of property to the extent Of millions Of
dollars. | know men who, when the Millville
and Glassboro' road was first built, considered
themselves too poor to pay tag on their pro-
perty, and who are now worth their tens Of
thousands These benefits have been produced
BY our having an immediate connection with
the Philadelphis market. But these are no.
thing in comparison with the benefits that
would accrue to our country If We had direct
connection with the market where the grestest
amount Of our produce is consumed and the
highest prices paid. Philadelphia has no
West-Jersey pioneer., 1867-11-01

but 1or thls the Wolt anu the bear would yet
have been heard where now you hear the hum
of commerce and industry. These are fact.
which are evident to your own minds
Now then, what does this proposed railroad
do? This railroad dchanges entirely for the fu-
ture our position with relation to the outside
world. Instead of our being an isolated coun-
try, it puts us on the great through route be-
| tween North and South. Between New York
as starting point we have New England and
all the Southern States, The route will make
the time from six to eight hours shorter than
by way Of Philadelphia, and the journey will
cost from twenty-five to thirty per cent. less
The freight and travel which will then be at
tracted to the new route, represents millions of
dollars of express business in year, and mill
lions of dollars worth of freight. When you
take the entire business that exists between the
New England and the Southern States, it is so
vast as to be almost beyond the limits Of calcu-
lation. The result will be that this railroad by
running cars to Smyrna, and making connec-
ton with these Southern routes, places us on 9
great through route; we are on the grand
highway of nations, our country is fructifed
by the wealth of millions of dollars that belong
to other people
A very important question now arises-Will
the Railroad pay? In order to do away with
even the imputation of making an extrava CANT
calculation, have not taken into account all
this immense business. l think can demon
strate to you that this Railroad will pay better
than even the West Jersey or the Millville and
Glassboro' lines paid, for the reason mainly that
it will tap more lines of Railway in its course
and enjoy large run Of trade. In my reading
experience, land that has heen the only expe
rience have had before this in Railway mat
tors,--I never knew line of Railway to start
with certain prospect of having SO large an
amount of business as we can stake our faith
upon in starting this projected vineland Rail-
way route. And l will commence upon the
line of the vineland Railway, and go down to
its termination and detail to you the business
that We must strike upon our journey. We
start from Atsion. The first place we strike is
Hammonton. The freight from Hammonton
alone to New York this ssummer,amounted some
days to five hundred dollars per day. We take
all the New York business Of the Camden &
Atlantic Railway, clear down to Absecom and
Atlantic city. We take the New York Wing
