Report of tito Committee.
- ' The committee to whom was referred the
three several reports made to the stockholders
by tbe President, the Chief Engineer aud the
Superintendent, ask leave to submit thc follow
lng report :
They have given these important documents
the most attentive and earnest consideration,
and they cordially recommend thc accept ince
and approval- of then by tho stockholders; and
.also the immediate publication thereof as the
"best means of drawing public attention through
?ut the United States to this important enter?
prise. lt will be seen by tb es 2 reports that tho
unfinished work hitherto done upon the lino of
"road is in an excellent Btate of preservation,
having been originally most faithfully done,
ar d having sutfoied but little injury from thc
laptoe of time. They will, consequently, make
it plain that tho work already done, bavins:
cost tb reo millions and a half dollars in coin,
and being now in a pood state ot' preserva?
tion, constitutes, when united to the cost of
completion, an undoubted security under
tho mortgage, for tho bonds to bo now is?
sued, lim ito J in amount as they will Lo to
the sum necessary to complete the work. Aud
this independently of the State guarantee. In
-these circumstances, nud the bonds having in
addition the indorsement and guarantee of the
?State, your committeo are of opinion that no
further time should bo lost, and that bids
^should at ODce be invited by public advertiBe
?n?n? for tH? 8C22?TS??C2 *5d oomo?otion of
the entire lice of road from Walhalla to Knox?
ville, BO as to bring every part ol' this State
.into early and direct communication by rail?
road with all the great cities of the Western
?alley.
The committee deem it the;r duty to point
out to the stockholders the energy and zeal
displays 1 by President Harrison and Chief En?
gineer Low, in the services of the company,
and thc very clear and satisfactory character
of the reporta submitted by them; and to ex
iress to those officers, on behalf of tho stock
olders, the sense that is entertained of their
services.
In relation to those matters upon which tho
stockholders are expected to instruct these offi?
cers and the j.oard of Directois, the committeo
have, for brevity, embraced their views in tho
form of resolutions, as hereto appended, and
which they respe :tfully submit os a part of then
report, and recommend to the adoption ol' tho
meeting. Matters of minor consideration, such
as the roofing of the budges with metal, they
propose to leave to the caro of tho President
- and Board of Directors. All of which is re?
spectfully submitted as tho report of this com
mittee. G. A. TBEKHOLM. Chairmau

Report of tne President.
To the Stockholders of the Blue Ridge Railroad
Company :
The Board of Directors have thought it ad?
visable to assemble voa at this time, to obtain
Jrour judgment and direction as to certain pre
unlnary matters of interest to the company,
looking to an early resumption of work upon
the line of the road.
But few persons, except those immediately
interested, or actually employed in the man?
agement o? this company, can justly appreciate
the unexpected delays and difficulties of the
past two years. At our meeting in November
last, it was anticipated, with some degree of
confidence, that material progress would have
been exhib? ed bet?re this time. Au able dele?
gation from this city, accompanied ?ho Presi?
dent and Governor Scott to the C -y of Nev
York, to represent the great importance ot tbis
enterprise to tho South and West, and to enast
the monicd interest of that city in its behalf
But owing to tho feverish state or public opin?
ion- in reference to all matters connected with
the South, and tho unparalleled stringency in
the money market, nothing was accomplished
beyond bringing the condition and prospc ts
of the com lany prominently and favorably to
the attention of cat "alists and contractors.
The necessity for a remeasurement of tho
work already done upon tho line of the road,
the loss aud damago incident f-om abandon?
ment for years, aud a now estimate to suit the
changed condition in tho prices of labor, mate?
rials, &c., induced tho board in J muary last to
organize a small corps oi'ongineersand nut them
on the wDik, so as to have such estimates in
readiness to meet any bids or contracts which
may be offered. The board wai fortunate
enough to secure the services of Colonel James
P. Low, as chief engineer, whoso reputation
for skill and ability in bis profession is ampio
guaranteo that tho company will not be disap?
pointed or dissatisfied.
Colonel Low immediately organized a corps,
sufficient for tho purpose, an outfit for the field
was procured, and tne party was soon engaged
in the work. His able report, herewith sub?
mitted, will nform you of the progress and re?
sults of the survey, and contains many inter?
esting facts and suggestions in regard to the
condition of the work and the gro it importance
and encouraging prospects of our enterpriso.
The results of his observation is another evi?
dence, not only of the great forecast and ?ws
dom evinced by thoso nvho inane m ated thia
project, but of tho ability and honesty with
which thc work along tho linc hag beer
formod. Ibis solid masonry, tuciO lotty
and granite arched tunnels will long rem:
monuments of their energy ana* eiiterprii
Ibo Board jf Directors b-lievo that thc
bas now arrived when additional progress
safely and prudently bo made in thc w
preparation for active work.
Although our istato securities have nc
vanced in price as rapidly as we may bavo
ly hoped, and arc still far below their v
although the money market in our great i
is still uusettlcd and stringent, and ca
si ill timid and tardv in its approach si
ward, vet thc board arc saugiiino in
hopes that the bopds o? Luis company au
ized to be issued, roslin? o:; a basis of so
au amouut already well expended in CJ?S
lion aud endorsed by the State, will comm
in a short time, such rates as ?ill justit;
company m progressing with tho work,
board would recommend that immediate s
be taken for thc proper preparation, engra
sud execution of all or a portion of t
bonds, according to the terms of the a
Scptcinbor last, and that a mortgage o
property of the company bc also prepared
executed, extended PO as to include and se
thc entire issue ot $1,000,000. lt is a 4110a
of Rome moment, to be determined by
stockho dora, whether the bonds should
interest in coin or curroncy. Many <
talists bavim; advanced the opinion, that i:
interest on these bonds was payable in <
their market value would be largely tn?ian
The board would also remind the stockt
ers that at thc last meeting, it was cousid
inexpedient to organize tho board ace ir
to tho power conferred bv tho act of Septcr
last, and tbe bo<trd and officers herck
elected have continued to perform ihe di
devolved upon them. It is, perhaps, time
Borne actiou should be taken in referenc
this matter, an J for thc present a simple,
nomical aud effective organization made,
salaries of officeis should be fixed, ands
early arrangement mado for payment of arr
due former employe^ of the company.
In connection with this, tho board would
ommend tho appointment or election of
directors, who, with the piesident, should \
stituto an executive committee, which c
oiittee should bc charged with tho proper 1
parution and engraving of tho bon is of
company, mortgage, ?c., to advertise fe
recei/e bids of proposals tot work, and rej
there ?n when necessary, with such other u
tere usually committed to such committees
It will be Been from the Chiof Enginoer'b
port, that the most advantageous sale or
of tho present resources ot the company
not furnish thc means to construct thc en
line of our road, and hence the importa
and necessity^or increasing our capital, st
to insure tho early completion of thc wc
Vigorous meitsurosshoufd bo adopted now,
obtain tho long and justly expected aid from
great cities ot the West. At no previous time 1
the public mind ot these cities, especially Cine
nati and Louisville, been so thoroughly aio
ed and excited upon this subject. Even nc
thc Board of Trado of tho former city is c
gaged in spc.-'il meetings, 111 consideri
the ways and means to secure pr mpth a
surely this Southern connection by rail. \
should not I090 this propitious opportunity
?rgo upon them the groat advantages o del?
by our route, and tho small sum now roquir
bo accomplish their purpose The President b
ro?aran t ly, by curred ponde nco and news; a j:
u'ticlcs, done all in bis power to convince 0
Western friends of the poculiar ad vaut ag
affered them by our company, but he nee
tho aid of the able and influential mea of t
?v>?nl and of this city, in this decisive cfibi
Boon to be made.
Tho board would call the attention of tl
stockholders to the report of the Superiutcn
ent. Mr. Gaillard, and the suggestions the
made. Tho company will bo prepared to 1
sumo tho repular operation of tho road fro
Anderson to Walhalla in a very short time, b
it is perhaps tho botter policy to allow tl
Greenville and Columbia Itailrpad Company
uso it until tho 1st day of June, m tho expect
tion that that company will make such ropai
as it is thought good failli requires.
The ca-h resources of tho compauy ha'
been restricted ro tho sum of twculv thoifsai
dollars, advanced from the Treasury of tl
State in bills receivable. Erom ibis futid all e:
penses havo been mot, and it will enable us I
repair thc three engines and necessary rollin
stock, and keep the engineer corps iu the fiel
is long as may bo necessary for t lie prosent ri
suming.
Thc company should, howovor, return th
fand to tho Treasury as soon as our finance
will admit. RcpcctfuUy submitted.

Report of thc General Superintendent
CHARLESTON, April 8. 1869.
To J. W. Harrison, Esq., President of th
Blue Ridge Railroad Company :
SIR-Since tho last mooting of the stockhold
)rs of thia company, the Greenville and Colum
jia Railroad have operated tho road with grca
regularity and success; but for want of a sufli
:ieut amouut of power, and thc heavy amoun
)f freight to move, and thc largo increase o
h u ii eight, they havo uot been able to make
mell repairs on tho road bcd aud dil chin;
nrhich they should have done; but thc officials 0
:he road have assured mo that tue y would asi
ill their energies to put the road in bettet
condition before the first of June.
Tho engine Fort Hill bas been repaired al
;he stops of tho routh Carolina Railroad Com
jauy. and is now ou tho road up tho country,
md cost something over $2000.
Material has been purchased and a machinist
las been employed to repair tho Chaluga, and
viii be put in good order at a cost ot about
>1500.
The other engine, the Blue Ridge, is worse
mt of repair tha^i either of tho others, haviug
>een burnt by raiders, and tbe extent of tho
njury cannot bo ascertained unless minutely
?xamtned at some ship, and it is recommended
0 be sent (0 some sh np to bc examined and re
laired.
The condition of the road is such that it will
equiro very nearly 1000 cross-ties to tho milo,
vhicb would put it in first rato condition, as
rood as wheu newly laid ; and one-half of that
.mount, s iv 500 to thc milo, would put it in
sxcellent condition.
I would recommond that, owing to tho groat
lifficulfy of having repairs douo to tho engines
nd cars, that tbo company buy a sufficient
mount of machinery to do our own repairs,
nd put them up on some point of the road
tow finished, costing some $8000 to $10.000;
nd I would also recommend that tho company
emmie the operation of thc road by thc first
if June next.
It is also recommended that something be
loao to protect the bridges on tho road, us thc
lovering of some of them aro in a bad condi
ion, aud they aro injuring very materially.
Respectfully submitted.

?teport of the Chief Engineer.
CHARLESTON, S. C., April 3, 1809.
r. TT. Harrison, Esq., President Blue Ridge
Railroad Company:
SIB-I have the honor to submit Ibo follow
og report of operations in the Engineering
Apartment of the Blue Ridge Railroad, since
he dure of my appointment, (January 7tli,
869,) together with such remarks and sugges
ions as tho brief time allowed for examination
rill euablc mc to offer.
Upon filtering upon tho duties of the office of
Ihief Engineer. I found that the matter im?
mediately demanding attention, was the prc
11 ra lion of au estimato of thu cost of com
ileting the road. There iippearnel in the
rm ted copies of the reports of tho Chief Eugi
01-r estimates in gross of the total cost of thc
oad, and also au estimate of the cost of com
lcting the work, dated Septcubor 1st, 1800;
?ut tbeso estimates showed tho total money
alue of tho work, subdivided only into irr?
egular sections terminating at thoStato boua
arics or at the principal towns along thc lino,
'he quantities and prices of tho different
.ems of work were not stated.
An examination of the lino from Walhalla to
tabun Gap coutirmed me in tho opinion that
o satisfactory estimate could bo made, With
ut a remeasurement of thc work as far as thc
>ortli Carolina lint'. This opinion was com?
municated to you in my report of January
0th. Ou thc same date I submitted au est??
llate of Mic cost of organizing and maiutain
ng the Engineering Department ui'lil June
st, 18G9. upon a tooting sufficient to embie 1
nc (o present the estimates by tho 15th of ,

Until the completion of tbo fiold work, calca- ft

V A?-*?* ?-. . .. .
latioua. plana and profiloa. you will not, air,
expect from tho Chic! Eugineer, any detailed
report upon tho works, thc construction of
which it is his special duty to superintend.
At tho risk, however, of repeating some
stat" menta contained in my former repor*, I
will r^fer briefly to the coudition of thc work
already done.
I have visited all tho tunuels and points
whero thc earth-work is specially heavy, and
am glad to be able to say. that during tho long
period nf abandonment thc road has suffere t
but little, asido from tho ordinary wasting of
earth-work lons exposed to tho weather. From
und?i miiiing of masonry, breaking of embank?
ments by freshets, failing of tho roofs of thc
tunnels, or other similar accidents, there has
been sustained but trilling damage.
The embankments show now aoout nine feet
in width on the top on that parc of the work
which seems roost advanced, but as wo have
no moana of judging whether they were over
of full width or boight, the percentage of loss
can bc but imperfectly stated. In making the
approximate estimate of the cost of complet?
ing tho work to Franklin, which will bo found
in another portion ol this report, tho loss from
waste of tbs earth-work already done has been
assumed at twenty per cent.
The work presenta tho most ragged appear?
ance in tho cuts, in many ol' which aro heavy
slips, but the greater part ol such material ia
now needed to restore the embankments. At
the approach to Sadalo Tunnel, iu South Caro?
lina, is a very aerious slip of earth from off au
inclined surfacu o? roc?e. This was anticipat?
ed by the former engineer, who left recorded
in bis notes his tear that it would occur, and it
is not likely that any precaution or care would
have aviilofl io prevent it. That thc masonry,
complete and unfinished, is also little injured,
ia due to the very thorough m inner in which
it was built, ibero is none of better character
in any railroad m tho country.
Had tho tunnels been through material not
self-supporting, eight yoars of neglect would
have occasioned au almost eutiro loss of the
work done, as tho weak points were not lined
with masonry, but supported by timber which
has yielded from decay. They aro, however,
driven through bard mica schists, which rare?
ly require support, and. except tor accumula?
tions of wa"er, arc in ss good condition as
when thc work ou thom was suspended. I
Lave observed in tho tunnels but ono instance
of tho falling in of tho roof. A section of
twenty foot of Won Woman tunnel in Geor?
gia baa given way and a crater opened to
thc surface of thc ground above. It is
however, less than a hundred foot from thc
eastern poi tal, and is not a matter of great
momen\
I expressed in my former report the opin?
ion that twenty mouths from tho tinin ot re?
suming operations would suffice for thc com?
pletion of tho longest remaining tunnel (that
at Dick's Creek, in Georgia). Thc road may
bc completed and tho iron laid to the
eastern portal of this tunnel (twenty-two
miles from Walhalla) beforo it is driven
through, aud at the tame time tbe road-bed
mav be m readiness to receive tho taltck as far
us Franklin, in North Carolina. There is,
therefore, uothing in tho character of the work
to prevent the opening of tho road to that
place in twenty-two months alter resumption
ot operations.
On the ?th of February, I had tho honor lo
submit a report on tho condition of the cDm
pleted road b3twoen Anderson and Walhalla.
In that report I mado no reference to the con?
dition ot tho bridges, as I had been informed
by Mr. Gaillard, the superintendent, thal stops
bad already been taken toward procuring the
iron necessary for covering (hem. I bavo now
to repeat the recommendations con'a:ned ia
that communication, and to add that thc
bridges should be covered without delay.
These aro excellent and expensive Btrucurcs,
and should not he a day longer exposed to dan?
ger irom firo and deterioration from weather.
'The wooden roofs, which admit tho wa:or and
cxcluiio tho sun and air, aro worso than noth?
ing. If tho terms of tho lease under which tho
Greenville and Columbia Railroad Company
operates the Blue Ridge Road are such as torc
quiro the former company to restore tho road
io good order at tbe termination of tho lease,
it should not bo hastily terminated and the
road received in its prosent condition. On tho
other baud, if repaire aro nut made at once
tho said road will deteriorate in a rapidly in?
creasing ratio, ami if that company cannot bu
required to repair it. wo should take possession
at onco and put ii in order. I obxsrvcd mud
and water over the rails in ono place at least,
aid thc wholo lino needs tbor^uyli ditching
and snrfacing up. Not less than a thousand
cross-ties poi- mile should be put m imme?
diately. If these repairs aro neglected tho ?rou
na? ti... ?Wiy.t.Wli luilce now open will be ruined
lone before tho company ia readv to extend
thc track. * * * * * * ?
lt'tho contract eau bo made without daley
with men of capital, experience and cnorgv,
little is haz li ded iu thc prediction, that iu
Juro, 1871, there will bo direct railroad com?
munication between the Tennessee Valley and
Dbatle8ton. Completed so lar, it is impossible
that the eutoipriao should stand ?till. Tho
lifficulties ot the route would havo bee
passed; thc mountain region, with tho tun?
nels, tho heavy earth work, and thc expousi.
itructurcs, wh,Ah absorb capital, task tho pa
Licucc and test the skill, will bo behind us, and
From thence to moot the linc from Knoxvillo
we follow a route opened by the bandet nature,
which has orokou tho Alleghanics before us,
ind given tho road a clear path to tho rich
valley of East Tennessee.
Tho road would alroady begin to gather a
traffic from tho head ot tho valley of tho Little
Tennessee, which, I venture to say, will aston?
ish thc most sanguine. This ia no aterile and
uninviting region. Every valley among the
lilla reaponds now to thc hand of tho husband?
man and repaya richly his labors. Thc hills
md mountain sides are n /t abrupt, rocky and
naccessiblo, but present easy slopes and
rounded forms, and aro covered with a soil
japr.blo of supplying in many ways the wants
)f i'uan.
When production ia stimulated by mej,ns of
icccss to a mark:t and by tho various activi?
t?s which will accompany tbo proseculiou of
ihe work, there will spring np a local traffic
:hat will go tar toward supporting the road.
But I by no means anticipate that it will bo
accessary to wait fur the completion of the
-oad to Fra i il; li n before anything can bo done
)eyona that point. Too many interests will
mite in demanding tho completion ot the
vork to admit of such a delay. Charleston
viii alroady feel tho quickening touch ol' trade
rom that rogion, ind not only tho cities tf
south Carolina, but every town from Fraukliu
0 Knoxvillo and Cincinnati will bo vitally in- '
orested in urging tho comparatively ? asy
vork oi completing thc connections.
Men will no longer bo discouraged by de?
mands for immense sums which disappear in i
he bowels of mountains, expended oil works
hat socm interminable; but stimulated by i
rrowing prosperity, and cheered by the neat
jrosuect of success, will give to thc enterprise
1 more beatty support.
Undoubtedly long before the road is open to
Franklin means will bo forthcoming to cou
;iuuo it, and we may confidently predict that
ho work will not halt again until thc nic.
Uianis of Charleston aud Cincinnati meet at
;he great tunnel to celebrate tho opening ol
.he road and the union of tho cities.
