Will enable me to offer.
Upon entering upon the duties Of the Office of
Chief Engineer, found that the matter inn
medately demanding attention, was the pre-
paration OF an estimate OF the cost OF COM
pleting the road. There appeared in the
neer estimates in gross Of The total cost Of The q
road, and also an estimate OF the cost OF COM
pleting the work, dated September LIST, 1860;
but these estimates showed the total money
value Of the work, subdivided only into ir-
regular sections terminating ct the State boun-
daries or at the principal towns along the line.
The quantities and prices of the different
Items OF work were not stated.
An examination Of the line from WalhalIa to
Rabun Gap confirmed me in the opinion that
no satisfactory estimate could be made, with.
out remeasurement OF the work as far as the

Report OF the General Superintendent.
CHARLESTON, April 8. 1869.
To IT, W. Harrison, Esq, President of The
Blue Ridge Railroad Company:
S1R-Since the last meeting Of the stockhold-
ers Of this company, the Greenville and Colum-
bia Railroad have operat ted the road with great
regularity and success; but for want of suffi-
cient amount Of power. and the heavy amount
of freight to move, and the large increase Of
that freight, they have not been able to make
such repairs on the road bed and ditchinR
which they should have done; but the officials Of
the road have assured me that they would use
all their energies to put the road in better
condition befora the first of June. .
K The engine Fort Hill has been repaired at
the sh ops of the south Carolina Railroad Com
pany, and is now on the road up the country.
and cost something over $4,000. oH7 h'F
Material has been purchased and q machipist
has been employed to repair the Chatuga, and
will be put in good order at a cost of about
$500. ofM~ . S,.1 lr"
The other engine, the Blue Ridge, is worse
out of repair than either of the others, having
been burnt by raiders, and the extent of the
injury cannot be ascertained unless minutely
examined at some shop, and it is recommended
to be sent to some shop to be examined and re-
paired. r
The condition Of the road is such that it will
require very nearly 1000 cross-ies to the mile,
which would put it in first rate condition. as
good as when newly laid and one-half of that
amount, say 500 to the mile, would put it in
excellent condition.
would recommend that, owing to the great
difficulty of having repairs done to the engines
and oars, that the company buy sufficient
amount Of machinery to do our own repairs,
and put them up on some point Of the road
now nnished.. costing some $4,000 to SO, 600;
and would also recommend that the company
resume the operation Of the road by the first
OF June next.
II is also recommended that something be
done to protect the bridges on the road, as the
covering sIof some of them are in bad condi-
tion. and they are injufing very materially.
Respectfully submttted.
