A meeting of the friends of this road was held at Goshen on Saturday last. A report from the Engineer was submitted to the meeting, together with his estimates of the cost of the work, and a beautiful map of the different lines surveyed. He estimates this road to cost one-third less per mile, than either of the other roads now being constructed in this county.
It runs through a rich and fertile part of the country, and will command a large amount of travel when completed. Books for the subscription of stock are now open, and it is expected that our citizens will subscribe liberally. The report and estimate, and map are in the hands of D. I. Graves who will exhibit them to all persons who wish to examine them.
