We have received copy of the re-
| port of the late survey of the above
projected road, with the charter OF
the company, the report Of the
president TO the stock holders, &c.
In getting out of Galena, and to
ascend the grade to high land from
the Galena River, four routes were
surveyed One follows up said riv-
er to Coon Creek, by the course of
which it reaches the high land an
other DIVORCES from said river seven
teen miles from Galena, and follows
up branch of Coon Creek; the
third follows mp Scrabble Branch to
the ridge, half mile north of the
Twelve Mile House the fourth di>
verges from No l at Meeker street
bridge, crosses the river with heavy
cut through the spur into the valley
of Hughlett's branch, and so on to
the high land The estimated cost
of the road, with all its equipments
Of every kind, is as follows: No. /,

No. 3 81, 1862, 481 .04 No. 4, 81 ,297,.
$50 CT.
The length in miles, including
three miles Of sidings, is little over
60 miles by the first route, and this
is about the average distance on all.
The cost per mile, fully equipped, is
estimated at $50, III, SO, on the first
route, with fraction less on the
other three.
The report concludes as follows:
