We notice an article. the wording Of which Tee
fleets doubt upon TIE feasibility Of the railroad .
route via UnderhHl Centre to Camb-idg- 1t .
is by no means the opinion Of those engaged 10 .
the survey, that the western route is preferable. .
But on the contrary. we are warranted in say
ing that go far as the survey Of the eastern route
which skirts the base Of Mansfield M1untainl
has been made. the engineers are unanimous in F
their expressions Of favor to both the route, ms
ierials for building road. and lightness Of grslo
: rom the article n2mcl one would infer that
the survey Of the eastern route hsd been sbau-
ione1. This Is DO. e.. As IS always the case il

-oute vas reached, and the remainder Of the
