Other cause, the reports from a number o

From the reports which haTc been received
. and information which though unofficial mat
be reiki on as authentic, it is ascertained
that some more than 35,000 shares bare beer
taken In addition -to this, the com mis
sioners at Lexington, Ky. hare officially
communicated the fact that the authorities o
that city have conditionally subscribed 109t
shares, but the centra! commission not bcin;
informed of tne nature of the conditions o:
which these shares were taken,- were not a
liberty to receive them at present. Undci
these circumstances, the 40,000 shares nc
cersary to &cure the charter not appearing
to betoken, the central commission wil
agaiu open the books until tlicJsi of Janua

possible, though hardly probable, that whet
the reports from those places trkich have no

it will be found that the 40,000 shares bar<

sacrificed to carve* or unfavorable
routes to g iin some poiut at the base of tho

of locks. The most favonblc and economical
valley route can be pursued, regardleas
of the abruptness of the acclivity at
which the road way strike, as locks can bo
constructed where planes can?as also where
it would be totally impracticable to construct

'the amount necessary to the construction of

in a less time by locks than by planes, and
their attendant stationary power, they may
