San Francisco Post THE MIDLAND WRVEY. Cbaracter of (be Ronte from Mocka- Tille ta Simtearllle and Hence to the Catawba. Btatesvllle Landmark. Last week we remarked the com mencement of the survey of the Vir ginia Midland Railroad from Mocks ville toward Statesville.- The survey ing party arrived here last Monday afternoon, having made the survey from Mocksville in seven days. The party, under the direction of Col. J. B. Yates, moved under the immediate supervision of Capt J. W. Andrews, his able first assistant, and accomplish ed the distance from Mocksville here in an incredibly short time. The en gineer corps make the distance from Mocksville to Statesville 24 miles. They cross Bear Greek at an, elevation of 12 feet, Hunting Creek at 22 and the river (about Crenshaw's ford) at 33 feel Thence to joi. Aliens on jjounn Creek, they have a beautiful stretch for 15 miles, and we learn trom tnem that the line as a whole is strikingly light and that they have made a wonderfully. successful survey. The route is 50 per cent lighter than they had expected,' the grades oeing upon an average not more than 70 feet to the mile. The deepest cut to be encountered will be out 22 ieet, ana tnis ior not more tnan GOO feet. Aa tffla ternoorL Thev were loined that dav the camp 8 miles east of here by Col Yates, and Tuesday noon the gentle men named, witn a tew parties from Statesville, started upon a prospecting tour of the route from this place to the river, toward Lincoln ton. They cross ed the river the same evening, and after a nicht with Dr. Powell, found a hieh- ly eligible crossing about midway p&i. tween his factory ana tne Kunaio Shoals, at an elevation of not more than 40 or 50 feet, x esteraay morning the actual survey from Statesville to ward Lincolnton began. It followed the line of the Western North Carolina Railroad for a half mile, then, taking the left, went over a gentle slope to Third Creek which it crossed at an ele vation of 10 feet, against 96 feet the crossings of the Western North Caro lina and Atlantic, Tennessee & Ohio roads. From the creek to the river is a ridge, and from the river to Lincoln ton, 25 miles, a clear and beautiful ridge the work upon which will be literally comirial. ? The surveying party is camped on Mr. Sion Woodward's place, 2 miles south of town and will probably re main there for a few days. We are pleased to say to our people that if there be anything in lightness and eligibility of line, Statesville stands a most excellent showing for the road WTjffmeTiither. Col; Yates left here yesterday morn ing for Spartanburg. Capt. Andrews will take care of the survey meanwhile; and saying this it is to De remarked that the Virginia Midland is to be con gratulated upon ha vine in its service gentlemen who are not orj3y so well qualified for the discharge of their du ties, but who have the faculty of mak ing themselves so agreeaoie w an those with whpm they xsome in con tacted V" " - ' . ;'::: , "' ' i i lei ii B ;vv';-A Rich Take.
