Grant counties, and thence a,ong the
base OF the mountain 70 Charle-ton, the
now permanent capital of West Vlr

said ST. Louis will be brought
one hundred miles nearer New
York, al that Cumberland will be 65
miles nearer New York, 50 miles nearer
South Amboy and only 10 niles farther
from Baltimore than by any other route.
The object 0 the road is to open facilities

But II it should be, our people are deep

We have always hsd great faith il the

whether this road now spoken of Is butt
