SURVEY OF A r. r. ROUTE TO MoNTRosE-The
project Of gail road lead from the Lehigh Valley
road to Bingham on through Susquehanna County,

Of the L. '. r. X. commenced a survey from this
place yesterday. The immediate charge of this
corps has been entrusted to Calvin E. Broadhead
who. under the direction of Mr.. Mercur. will make
careful and accurate surveys and general estimates
Of all the supposed feasible routes between this place
and Meshoppen. and run these routes through far

done within the next four weeks. ALI OF the routes
which have discussed and about which there very

through i convenient corner of their farms, which
by way would furnish splendid site for depot and
village. The survey being made will not, per-
Aas, convince these local engineers, but Will put to
hight some Of the visions upon which they have
led for the past few months. The route from Mont
rose TO Binghamton is said to have been examined
BY partes a. the latter place, and pronounced fea-
stle.
