Stone suitable for the construction of the bridges, culverts, &c. is found generally either on the line itself from the cuttings, or its neighborhood. The supply from the former being ascertained from such borings as could be effected, to be inadequate for our purpose, I have therefore in the estimate for excavations charged the same to the full depth as common earth, making up the dificiency, should rock be found, in the estimated price of that material in the other contingent parts of the rail-way.

I would respectfully suggest to the consideration of the board, the propriety of separating the contracts for road forming and laying the rails; so that the latter may embrace within the contract the broken stone and blocks on which the rails are to be placed.

"The cost for grading and bridging upon the eastern division of the rail-way, has been considerably increased by the expense incurred on the new line from Coatsville to the summit in Thomasfield, which is an extent of nearly 18 miles.

The impracticability of finding last year any passage by which we could leave Chester valley from the white horse summit, to that on Mrs. Grove's land, rendered it then necessary that this section should be left open for future examinations; under such circumstances I could therefore only give, in order to close the estimate, its probable cost.

In the present location it has been a consideration of some importance to diminish distance; and when the amount of cost upon the whole linc to gain this advan- tage did not extend to an unreasonable sum, I never hesitated to incur the expense.

The extent of the located line from Columbia to the seven mile stone, which as before observed, was fhe point at which the explorations of last year terminated, is about nine miles shorter than. the explored line .- The value of this saving in distance, so far as regards its effect upon the diminution in time of transportation, more than compensates for the additional cost incurr ed for road forming.

The whole estimated expense last year for the railway, from Columbia to the seven mile stone, is stated in the report then made at $1,013,019,13-100 and the esti -. mate for one mile of double way of $8079,53-100 (ex- clusive of road forming) according to the present re- duced price of iron (the materials made use of being wood, iron and stone, ) is amply sufficient for that con- struction.

I will now give for the information of the board, first, a comparative statement of the expense of the present location, with the explored line of last year as far as the seven mile stone where it terminated; and then the ex- tension of the estimate to Vine street in Philadelphia, the materials for the rail way being of wood, iron and stone-secondly, the probable estimate where the con- struction of rail-way is of iron and stone, similar to the plan adopted in Great Britain.

But should the duty on iron for rail-ways be remitted by the government the difference would be only $137, 841 88 neither of which in so great an undertaking, ought to be considered when the comparison is- made between perishable and imperishable materials.

In approaching so large a city as Philadelphia with a rail-way,it is important that from some point in its neigh- borhood branch lines should be constructed, in order to accommodate the various commercial interests of that community, and to extend the whole benefits of such a line of communication with the interior, not only to the streets of a city, but also to the shipping.

Under such a view of the beneficial effect it might have in and around Philadelphia, I take the liberty of recommending to the board, that from the termination of the inclined plane, east of the residence of the late Judge Peters, a branch of the rail-way should be extend- ed along the margin of Schuylkill river, terminating at a suitable place of deposit near the tide water, and oppo- site the city of Philadelphia.

* The weight of 28 lb. per lineal yard for the malle- able iron rail enables it to sustain the pressure of the lo- comotive steam engine, and still retain its original form without a permanent deflexion. . Should horse power be considered as best adapted for propelling the railway carriages in this country, a reduction of two or three pounds in the weight of the rail as estimated, may be safely made.

t Should the plan of forming the rail-way with iron and stone be adopted, this item may be reduced one twelfth as the space required in the cuttings for the oth- er method may be diminished about four feet. VOL. III

In concluding this report upon the location and esti- niate of the Pennsylvania rail-way, I beg leave to ex- press the friendly disposition and assistance given me in promoting the object of the survey, by the inhabitants of Columbia, the committee appointed by the select and common councils of the city of Lancaster, and its citizens generally, also the committees of various sections of Chester county, and of Philadelphia. I am likewise in- debted to Mr. Scott,the principal assistant engineer, for his services in the field, and great accuracy in the deli- neations explanatory of this report, as well as to each of the individuals composing the locating and exploring corps, for ability, zeal and correct deportment.

All which is respectfully submitted. JOIIN WILSON,

Philadelphia, Dec. 1st, 1828. Engineer.

On the 29th ult. the city of Lancaster was thronged with gentlemen from various parts of the state, and some from adjoining states, for the purpose of offering propo- sals for excavating and grading the road, building of bridges, culverts, &c. on the Rail-road. We under- stand there were about 300 applicants; and are happy to state, that the terms on which contracts are taken, are within the estimate of the Engineer. The follow- ing is the

WARREN COUNTY

white-wood and occasionally extensive groves of pine, particularly on and near the streams. The land in the next tier of townships, lying between the above men- tioned and the Allegheny river is more various. A part of it, particularly that lying between the Conewango and Brokenstraw creeks, will answer the description a- bove given, excepting that lying on and within two or three miles of the river hill. This is timbered with oak, chesnut, pine, &c. It is estimated better for wheat than the beech and maple land. The land between the two big Brockenstraw for several miles in this range is stony and broken indeed. A land speculator from "the land of steady habits" once travelling over it where "stones peep o'er stones, and rock on rocks arise," re- marked: "That it would never be settled, till it was set- tled by an earthquake." West of this, and between it and Crawford and Venango county line there is a large body of good arable land.

The land of the river bottoms is considered first-rate. Of this, including the second bottom, there is, say from 40 to 50,000 acres in the county, besides that on the creek bottoms, which is but little inferior in quality. It produces when properly cultivated, 50 bushels of corn per acre; 60 and 70 have frequently been raised, and other grain in proportion, excepting wheat, which grows too rank. Twenty bushels of wheat and thirty of corn is about an average crop on the uplands.

The country South East of the Allegheny, until with in a year or two past; was but little known or explored. It was altogether uninhabited, and as was supposed, un- inhabitable. The land has been principally sold for taxes, and bid off by the County Commissioners. The time of redemption having expired, they have within the last two years made extensive sales. Some of the purchasers have moved on the land, and commenced im- provements. Several more are coming on in the spring, and there is a fair prospect of that part of the county settling. The land generally is found to be much bet- ter than was expected. It is heavily timbered, with all the varieties that are found in other parts of the county. There is no country in the world of the same extent, more abundantly supplied with streams of excellent wa- ter, and mill privileges. The Allegheny enters at the north east corner of the county, and passes out near the south west. Running with its meanderings, not less than 50 miles in the county. It is on an average about 25 rods wide. A description of this stream was correct- ly given by Judge Geddes in his report to the Canal Commissioners last winter. It consists of extensive sheets of dead water and short ripples. The fall in several of these ripples was taken by Mr. Whippo, and found to average about two feet each. In a low stage, the water over these ripples is not more than one and one and a half feet deep, while in the dead water it is from six to twelve feet deep. There are five double Saw-mills car- ried by water from the main stream between this place and the State line.

Is bounded north by the State of New York, (Chau- tauque co. ) on the east by M'Kean, on the south by Jef- ferson and Venango, and on the west by Crawford and The Conewango creek enters the county 12 miles north of, and empties into the Allegheny at Warren .- This is also a large and navigable stream. From Rus- sell's mills, (five miles, ) to the New York state line, it is a deep, sluggish stream, and will admit of steam-boat navigation the whole year when not frozen. The same may be said of it for 30 miles above. From Russell's Mills to Warren, (seven miles, ) it is more rapid. The fall in this distance, agreeably to a level taken by Mr. Whippo is sixty feet. Loaded keel boats, &c. ascend in a good stage of water, without difficulty. There are four double and two single Saw-mills on these rapids. The Brokenstraw creek is next in size and importance. It rises in the State of N. York, enters near the north west corner of the county, runs a southerly direction about 25 miles, and empties into the Allegheny seven miles below Warren. Nine miles from its mouth it receives the waters of the Little Brokenstraw, another excellent stream for mills. The lumbering business is carried on Erie counties. It is an oblong square 32 miles long, (east and west, ) and 26 miles broad. It contains 832 square miles, equal to 532,480 acres. It is divided into twelve townhips, eight of which lie north and west of the Allegheny, are organized and each composes an e- lection district. The other four lie south east of the Al- legheny, and are not organized. Its present population is about 4000. It would be difficult to give an accurate idea of the face of the country, soil, &c. in general terms. The lands on the State line and from six to eight miles south, comprising the first range of townships, are generally of good quality, and will admit of dense set- tlements. It is moderately undulating. but not hilly .- In this range containing say 150,000 acres, there are scarcely a hundred acres but what would make a tolera- ble good farm. They are usually rated second-rate land. The river and creek bottoms being first. The timber is principally sugar-maple and beech, interspers- ed with oak, chesnut, linn-wood, cucumber, cherry, extensively upon these streams. There are 30 Saw-mills
