However meritorious their deeds of gallantry and devotion may appear in the eyes of those who believe in that mode of asserting a nation's rights, and vindicating her honor, to me it is totally irreconcilable with the doctrines of tho Christian religion, and opposed to the best interests of the country.

No difficulty whatever occiiriug between i the State line aud Katon, and it would be difficu'' lo a "ore favorable line for a Kail Road. My estimates are upon the last route run. Hy fan exaiiuiiaiiuii ui ine man arcoiltpaiiYifiv tins report, you will see, that, the line passes along on the riilpe, or high ground betweeu the head waters of Clkhoru, Seven and Four mile creeks, encountering nowhere anything elao than gentle, undulations.

J.. The maximum grade on the Hamilton and Ciu- , ciniiati Rairoad u 30 feet mil ,hat of he Eaton and Hamilton road, as recently reported j on, is 35 feet per mile, though not eslablihed at that yet by the Hoard; but will be placed 30 feet j per mile no doubt when the line is prepared fori contract: which can reaoily be done at a trifling ' cost, as that grade occurs only ia two other pla ces and contiuuesfor short distances. As your line can be regarded only as the extension of the latter road, aud will ia lime be a link in one i of the most important Railroads in the West, if j judiciously located, great care, therefore, should j be taken in getting as low maximum grade as i P". tether with as slra.ght Hue. By iuV b " " , yea. aaly nau-a-mur, a graue do wnere exceeding 035 feet per mile can be obtained, and that, too, ! t a cost not exceeding the above estimate. Time d.d not permit me to extend the survey farther; however, should you determine upon placing yonr line under contract, that art can then be fu!,T e,ub!i,shed o.j t t u Red Bttch lng the liae of your road, and I would recommend it for sills, and. ; indeed, even ties; it being in my opinion as dmr , , , , . ; ra0le " mct cneaper. j The estimate for the superstructsre and plate radlaid down ia tt.'lO 00 to which ado cost of A l.-J 11 IS. .nil rnn n!c! - j , rr--t ' tbe total cost per mile, with flat rail, $10,661 19. j ' Th ratirnata m-ith the -aT rail per foilea ftl.. 000. - ! If the road should be constructed with the j plate rail, then the enUre coot woold be $170,078 i ri f the XFV rl ,a tben tho whole cost would be $21'J.000. The above estimates aro ample for the constraciion of the road, and contractoia can be foond who would idUimgla uke tho eatire work at the estimate.
