The Progress of the Survey of the Colum bus and Florida. The <'iiHi hert Liberal Wants It to Come that way* Notes About the Georgia Midland—The Georgia. Carolina and Northern—A Meeting in Alliens. The engineer corps under Assistant Engineer Cowan has reached Dawson, probably, by this time. On the 23d they were between Weston and Dawson. The corps will reach Albany in about one week, when it will return and start to run the other line. In the meantime, we learn profiles, maps and estimates will be prepared of the Hue to Albany. From all the information we can gather there seems to be no trouble about bitiding this road so far ns its feasibility in con cerned. It is eminently practicable and the pe - pie interested know how badly needed it is. Be low wc give a clipping from the Cuthbert Liberal concerning the road from a Cuthbert standpoint. We think we risk nothing in saying Columbus is compelled to build this road to some point. The certain loss of much of our trade already, and the new encroachments now being made upon Columbus territory, behooves our people to see to it that Columbus does her Dill duty, and she will do it—rely on that. If Chattahoochee, Stewart, Webster, Terrell and Daugherty feel a like interest it is time we were consulting together. Then if the other route to Bainbridge is feasible and shows up attractively, the people interested will no doubt make the in ducements fully known, when a decision can be intelligently reached. A committee from Cusseta will visit this city Tuesday in the interest of that place. They come backed by a proposition, we hear, and desire to confer with Mr. G. Ounby Jordan. It will be a matter of surprise to many of our readers to know the survey on this south ern road shows an elevation of 100 feet over Columbus twenty miles south of us. The En quirer-Sun lias in and out of Beason done its share to assist in the development of this sec tion. We believe in this southern railroad. Let us act together and get it. The Cuthbert Liberal wants the Columbus and Florida railroad to come that way, and has the following to say on the subject: “While the Enquirer-Sun is so enthusiastip over the upper route, we have no apprehension as to the route that will be finally determined upon when Chief Engineer Green and Engineer Cowan have finished the survey of the upper and lower routes, especially when such a practical business man us G. Gunby Jordan is at the head of the company that will make the decision The route which travels closest the Chattahoochee valley, whose cotton naturally belongs to Columbus, is the one that will prove most beneficial to Colum bus. After crossing the A., P. nnd L. road, iho cotton over the proposed upper route will, from farce of habit, go eastward unless extraordinary inducements are offered to turn it toward Colum bus. The cotton of Chattahoochee, Stewart and Quitman counties has long been the legitimate tribute of Columbus. If the road be built over tho upper route, the cotton of the whole of Quit- man and the we* tern half of Stewart counties will most probably be diverted from Columbus for all time to come, with no compensating gain from the caster^ half of Stewart and western half of Webster counties The lower route will certain ly save to Columbus all the cotton bf Stewart and Quitman counties, and of the Greater part of Ran dolph county, a great deal of which war formerly shipped up the river, until the uncertainly i f navigation in the cotton season turned it in an other direction. The unbroken and almost inex haustible pine forests of the counties south of Randolph, oiler an inducement equally as great as vhe cotton of the counties north of us. This, iftii3 upper route should bo selected, would he lost to Columbus and to the ro\d, with no compensating gain in kind. The lover route offers the most direct route to Florida with the advantage (if* a road be built from this point to Albany) of three Atlantic ports and as many gulf ports through which to reach foreign markets. The lower route off rs so many more and greater inducements thut we cannot for a moment doub*. that the read will be built by Cothbert to Bainbridge. Still, our people must keep those inducements continually and prominently before the projectors of the road, and oiler such other reasonable inducements as they may ask, in order to make its building this way a certainty. The day of building railroads to people who are not willing to pay something for them is past. What people want must be asked for and paid for now days.” Georgia Midtund Echoes. The trains will pass over So.vahachee trestle by Wednesday. Then there are no streams for six or eight mile , and only small ones then; so track laying will rapidly progress from now on. Daylight will show through the tunnel by De cember 20. The work progresses both day and night. All the camps this side have been mot ed to the uorQi side of the inoimtaiu except one. That one will move December 15. About four miles of grading have bceu com pleted between the tunnel anil Flint River. The Flint river piers are going up rapidly, the centre pier being nearly up to the bridge seat. The south pier is above high water mark. These piers are of granite and are of splendid quality. They are substantial and imposing in appear ance. Ninety per cent, of the gradit g between the river and Griffin lias been timsned, so that there are sixty-six miles of the Midland now graded. Chief Engineer Greene and Ool. Dickinson, the general contractor, havejust made a personal in spection of the wnole line to Griffin. Col. Dick inson will have his grading torce from tnc rail road he has been building in North Carolina moved down to the Midland this week. They are now on the way here. This force will grade tho first six miles from Griffin toward McDon ough, where the Midland reaches the East Ten nessee railroad system. This acids materially to the working force on the Midland, and is an earnest of the quick construction of this impor tant road. The first two passenger coaches will arrive this week. They were shipped on the 17th. These are Pennsylvania railroad staadard cars. In January the road will get its first installment oi the most elegant passenger coaches ever seeu in the south. The Jackson & Sharp Company promise to exceed themselves in this contrajt. A wrought iron turn-table for the Columbus yard will soon arrive. Like everything else the construction company has purchased, it will be the best known in the market. Three side tracks are now about finished at the Columbus terminal. The main track reaches to the Star Park enclosure. This track will all be sur faced up and ready forbusiuess in a few days. The construction company bought during the past week ail the Star Park improvements, and will immediately tear them away to provide for depots, shops and other terminal facilities. The depot sites have now been established for every station on the road. The demand for lots at all the important points is large and urgent. This points to an immense local business for the road. Such a country us the Midlaud traverses is obliged to rapidly develop. Since our last notice of tho Midland’s progress another lot of freight cars have arrived. The Co lumbus freight yard begins to look alive with equipment. Trains will reach Waveriy Hall soon, when a regular schedule will be put ou the road. Su perintendent Gray has beou busy the past week- preparing his tariff and rules. General Hoke’s new road from Monroe to Athens, when it be gins actual construction, could not commend itself to the people more certainly than by imita ting the business methods of the Midland. The best work and best equipment is cheapest at last. That is the motto of the Midland people. Three train loads of ties arrived from out on the South western road Friday and Saturday for the Midland. The t*e contractors have ties already cut. twenty miles ofties ahead. They have 250 hands now cutting ties in Meriwether and Pike counties in addition to the force at work on the Southwestern and the Mobile and Girard rail roads. The Evening Ledger says : The Georgia Mid land will roach Waveriy Hall in a few days, when a regular schedule will be put on. Everybody who has seen the work done on the road says that it Is the best work they ever saw done on a new road. Mr. Gunby Jordan said it should be, and all who know, the man believed his promise would be kept to the letter. Gcoririii. Carolina and Northern. We learn that ft meeting of those interested in Ibe building of the Georgia, Carolina and North ern railroad will be held at Athens on December 0. This enterprise is backed up by the Pennsyl vania Central and is a continuation of the roads comprising the seaboard route, at the head of which is Mr. John Robinson, whose push and enterprise make him a formidable rival for south ern business. The road, if built, will only be the consummation of a scheme which he has long cherished. We understand that it is contem plated by this company to connect with the Geor gia Midland.
