SOUTHERN PACIFIC RAILRoAD.-Yester-
day we had the pleasure OF meeting with
Mr.. H. Robinson, who, with Captain I.
W. Smith, are engaged in examining
Southern Nevada, Arizona and New
Mexico, with view of ascertaining tho
most eligible route for the Southern Pa
cifc Railroad. In the prosecution of
their labors these gentlemen have passed
over and inspected q vast amount OF
territory, stretching from the Pacific to
Franklin, point in Texas opposite Ell
Paso, on the Rio Grande river. From
what we could gather it would appear
that the feasibility of line is under con-
sideration. which, leaving the Southern
Pacific on the northern side OF tho Te-
hacbepi Pass, would pass through South
ern Nevada and cross the Colorado some
distance above Fort Mojave, say at En-
renburg, and then pass through Arizona
until it struck the old Buttertield route,
which it would follow into Texas Messrs
Robinson and Smith are we'll equipped
Tor their arduous wapderings in the will
derness, and seem well qualified to ex-
ecute thoroughly and satisfactorily the
responsible task assigned to them.
