Their report estimated that no lee* than 68,000 bales of cotton Wire raised within *ix i of the road on both sides aiutig it* eoti-c length—all of which, anil perhaps much more, would be transported over it to mat- kct. Tli* friend* of thi* route appointed n committee to make the necessary arrange, incut* for tha prompt orgnmxition of their company and the procurement of u charter, and resolved to go to work nt cure.
