   *****
   The directors of the Columbus & San Antonio railroad have thought it prudent to stop the survey of that road {a 125-mile west extension of the Buffalo Bayou, Brazos & Colorado RR}, for the present.
   The grading on the short line to connect Alleyton with Columbus {the Columbus Tap RR}, was nearly completed on the 22d, only half a mile remaining to be finished. Additional force has been placed on the road.
