C.'BREIPONDENCE OF TUB ttOltniftfl POST.}
h: HARPER
Ny Dear Post —The Senate has passed the
general bill regulating the incorporation of bor»
ougbs, and given the poorer to grant chatters for
them: to the couuty. This bill having previously
passed the House, will become a law, and its op*
eration will place so much of local and private
legislation where much more of it ought to be.
The bill providing for the publication of the
Report of the Geological Survey of the State
made by Prof. Henry D: Rogers, passed the Senate
today bv a single vote. General Packer, Jndge
Ives, Judge Myers and others opposed this bill, lor
the reason that they think it will draw too heavily
upon the Treasury for its present condition and
liabilities, in which opinion they will probably be
sustained by the other House when it come 9 to act
upon the subject. The provisions of the bill re*
quire the Secretary of the Commonwealth to act
with a joint committee of the two branches of
the Legislature, and put under contract the pub*
lication of this work,, to be completed m four
years, and for a sum not exceeding $32,000, no
more than SBUO of which is to be drawn from the
Treasury in any one year. The copyright vests
in the publishers, but they are to deliver one thou
sand copies of the book to the State, to be dispos
ed of by some succeeding Legislature. This sur
vey has cost the State $78,000 already, and the
publication will cost at least enough to make up
the round sum of $lOO,OOO.
Gen Packer stated to day that if tba bill which
has notv passed the Senate should become u law,
the -Survey would be reopened, recommenced and
finally-cast-llie. people more-than $200,000 instead
of one. No man knows the history of this enter
prise, and ns character as a measure of public
poliuV; better than Gen. Packer, and his opinion i»
therefore entitled to great weight in the public
mind. He is undoubtedly as anxious to have this
Report given to the world in an acceptable shape,
as any one, but he does not think the public purse
can spare $200,000 just at this lime and present a
tespeetabls appearance afterwards.
The Houee-hna-to-day-been engaged in the con
sideration oi the General Appropriation bill, and
forty-seven of its sixty-one sections have passed
through committee oi the whole.
The annua! appropriation bill Is the only pub
lic measure which receives any proper attention
in our Legislature, and ive are compelled to think
even this would often be neglected if the members
could otherwise get their three dollars per day.
Yours, Sx;, FRANKLIN.
NUMBER I,
Hstturencno, March 29, 1851
My Dear Post: The House of Representatives
is still occupied with the Appropriation Bill,
wlflchluls passed through Committee of the
Whole, and will probably pass finally in that body
on Wednesday next, fha Committee of Ways
and'Means estimate that the entire cost of avoid
ing the inclined planes on the Allegheny Portage
Railroad will be about one million of dollars, but
they think this ought toba done; and the bill asks
for two hundred and ■ fifty thousand to be appro
priated for the purpose of commencing the work
-iha.pieseut.yaar.
The Senate has been engaged nearly all of to
day mthe consideration of a bill to compel the
completion of the Pittsburgh and Erie Railroad—
-hie Company lo complete the main line before they
shall be ultowed to buifd any latteral or branch
road along the Lake shore, from Erie to the Ohio
State line. The Franklin Canal Company are
fighting the measure, but it is probable that the
■bill will pass.
Mr; Walker today answered some charges
made by placardin the streets of Erie against him
for having sold himself to. Philadelphia, and pro
cured (he passage of the bill through the Senate
"Secretly and unfairly. He dealt very severely
with,some of his own constituents in regard to
thismatter. ...
; Gen. Packer, Judge Ives, Mr. Hoge and Mr.
Walker are the, principal advocates of thi? mea
,sure in the Senate. Judge Ives has offered an
amendment, which makes the completion of the
.-whole line unavoidable without leaving any gap,
as the original bill contemplates- Tho Judge
made an eloquent and conclusive argument-in fa
vor of his amendment, and although at first it did
not seem to strike-the 6enate favorably, after his
able and lucid.explanation- and reasoning upon it,
the whole body -inclined to its support- No vote
was taken upon it to-day, but ,nothing can be more
certain than that ite provisions will be engrafted
upou the h>H before its final passage. It is under
stood m the Legislature that this road along the
Lake shore, if made,, will be oue of the most
profitable roads to-the Stockholders- in .the known
worliT; and great care wil ba taken to injure, from
those who arc. alloyed, to build it, the previous
completion of the Pittsburgh and Erie line. _
FRANKLIN.

VERY INTERESTING STATISTICS.
. FromtheCtrtcinnaliFnce Current. .
The State of Ohio 1a at present the theatre of a
moat active, and,w magnitude, unprecedented rail
road competition; Tho immediate cause of this will
bo found in the local situation of the State, by which
it ,is made the oats, or passtge way, between the
Eastern Atlantic States and the Valley of the Missis
sippi. By examining the map, it will .be seen that
the long ranges of mountains and hills which lie in
Western Virginia and Eastern Kentucky render the
. passage of a railroad in that direction difficult, if
-not impossible. - On tho other hand,'with the excep
tion of the easy valleys and groves of rivers and
streams, Ohio presents but a great plain, admirably
adapted, in all particulars, to the construction of
railroads. Experience proves that tho cost per milo
of railroads in Ohio is but little more than one-third
the average cost of railroads in New Englaod. i
In consequence of Ohio having this gateway to
the West, and also this facility for construction,
this State coutams the truest lines, oithor construct'
mg or planned, of tho great highways from Boston,
New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore, to the Mis
sissippi river. Accordingly, we havo four lines in
construction East and Weal through the State. The
immense commerce of the lakes and tho Ohio river
require connections at different points; and wc have
roua hues, also, completed or completing, Jrcm
North to South. In addition to these nre several
independent, lateral, or branch liace. The mam
fines are thus described :
Ist. The Cincinnati and Sandusky line is com
pleted. It is composed of two links—the Mad Htv»
<r Railroad, from Sandasky to Springfield, and tho
Little Mtamt Railroad, from Springfield to Cincin
nati. This is 218 miles in length, and is »o full
operation.
2d. The Cincinnati , Cleveland and Columbus line.
This is also complete, and consist* or three links,
vix: The Lillie Miami Railroad, before mentioned
to Xenia, then . tbc Columbus and Xenia to 'Colum
bus | the Columbus hue to Cleveland
This lino is, 10 all, 268 miles, viz
From Cincinnati to Xenia.
“ Xenia to C01umbu5........
“ Columbus to Cleveland ~149 <<
Aggregate.............. ....268 miles.
Of this, however, tbe 203 miles from Xenia to Clcvo*
land only is independent of the Sandusky line.
3d. Tbe Sandusky, Mansfield, Newark and
PoELTSttOUTB line. This w completed from San*
dusky to Newark. Thenco to Portsmouth it will be
completed by the “Scioto and Hocking Valley Rail,
road Company.*’ This line is from Sandusky to
Mansfield, 56 miles. From Mansfield to Newark,
about 55 ratios. Prom Portsmouth to Newark, this
road will go to Jackson, and thence by Logan and
Lancaster to Newark—say lit) miles—making the
wholo line from Sandaskv to Portsmouth about 221
miles; but little more than tbe line from Sandusky
to Cincinnati.
4tb. The Cleveland and Wellsville line.—
This consists of two links, viz: The Cleveland and
Pittsburgh line to Alliance, aod then the WcMsvilic
road to Wellsyilie—making, in all, bS miles.
6th. The Circikbatx ahd Belpbe lire. This is
the Southern, East and West, route, and ie com
posed, in Ohio, of four links, vizt The Little Mi
ami for 22 miles, the Hillsboroagh 37 miles, the
Cincinnati and Belpre, about 126 miles, and the Ohio
and Mississippi to the Indiana Jiqo, about 20 miles.
Tho entire distance through tho State will be about
204 miles.
6ih. Tho Onto Cewtral lire. This will be com
posed, also, of four links, viz: The Central Rail
road from Wheeling to Columbus, 137 milos; the
Coiambus and Xenia, 64 miles; tho Xenia and Day
ton, 26 miles; and the Weatorn, from Dayton to
the Indiana lioo, 37 miles. This will make 243
miles through tho State.
7tb. The third East and West line is the Pern*
sylyahia arp Ohio Railboad, and Ha continua
tion, the Boiiofontaino and Indiana Railroad, tvhicn
passes throngb Cantou, Wooster, MansficlJ, ftallton,
Marion and BellcfoQiatnc,m the Indiana Roe—mak
ing, in the State of Ohio, 5G3 miles.
Bth. The fourth and most Northorn (Ea*. and
West) line is the Lake Shore lire. Tbti pisses
from Cooeaat through Cleveland, Elysia, Sandusky
and Toledo. Apart of ibis line is locourao of con
struction.
By examtning the map of Ohio it will bn seen
that railroads arc cither contracted or constructing,
with the iifongcst probability of completion, in
no less than fifty cqortirs oi tho eightr-seven in
iho Stalci No equal surface o! the American
Union it likely to bc-ao well traversed and con
nectod with a net-work of railroads.

Note.—’ln the above list we have not given the
technical, titlo in ail cases, but have indicated the
line by the names of places, where we had not tho
corporate name.
There are numerous other chartorcd companies,
but the above, wc believe, are all that are actually
under way. In two or threo instances, above, where
the lino is not actually in. course of construction,
such preparations are made as.make it certain that
work will be vory soon commenced; and all tho
above works will, we have reason to -believe, be
completed in the course of two or throe years, Fife
nuRORED avd BZFERTY-TWO MttES are completed,
and nearly eight hundred more under contract. It
will be observed that the entire lino of tho Pern
sylvaria ahd Ohio URE, extending through the
heaviest wheat counties from Pennsylvania to Indi*
ana, it under contract. Tho Cihclkkati awd Bel
pre ure it is also morally certain will be completed
at an early day. That part of it which lies botwcco
HiUsboroogh and Cincinnati (including a part ot tho
Littlo Miami), 68 miles, will be completed this year.
Forty milca a point II miles oast of Chilli*
cothe, is just pat under contract. Tho Certral
ure, between Zanesville and Columbus, Is aloo pro
gressing.
Tns Circirrati, Hasulyos abo Daytor Rail
road wilt be completed in about six months.
Tho very favorablo terms on which the Ohio rail
roads have been able to obtain money on thoir bonds
will attract tho commercial man. Their loans have
beeo quite as favorable as the best Eastern roads
have been able to get. Tho Cincinnati, Hamilton
and Dayton have a loan of $500,000, in New York,
at par j which, if we mistake* not, has not been done
by any Eastern companies.. Tbc Dayton and Green*
villo companies also obtained loans at rales avera
ging about 90. The Central Railroad also obtained
3250,000 at about the same rates, Altogether, the
four companies have got aboutsl,lso,ooo on bonds,
averaging between 90 and 100, a higher rate than
the New York and Erie obtained.
.... This proves that the capitalists of the East already
see the superior advantages of Ohio railroads.
NayioATIOR of Lake Erie.—A despatch dated at
Buffalo,March 27, says: A heavy southwesterly
wind has prevailed for the past 24 hours. Tho on*
trance to tho harbor ts effectually closed by ico.—
Seven steamers and one propeller are in the offing,
unable lo effect their ingress or egress. There are
from fonr to five miles of ice between the mouth of
the harbor and the open lake, which will prevent
boats runalngfor tbraeor four days. Boats are now
advertised to leavo-Silvcr Creek.

Rev. Henry Wilberfurco, con of tho celebrated phil
anthropist, has with hia wife and childron gone over

Inoreate of tbe Value of Taxable Prop*
- The following table, which, we find in the Harrisburg
.American, will exhibit the valuation of propertytaxable
for State putposesm each county, as adjudged by the
Board .of Revenue Commissioners, at its late session,
compared with the valuation oflB4B.
.The total addition to the valuation of taxable.properly
in the State made bylhe late board, (says the Ametican,)
is 56,b03,153, which wlll mcrease theincome of the Slate
some $22,000 annually. The total increase of taxable
properly m the three years, from 1348 to 1851, thus ad
-508160,18829,853,371,yie1ding aboutB9s,ooorevenue. .
The whole taxable property m the State in 1845 was
$420,290,130—m1643,54C3,031,453,'bemg an increase in
three years of 342,735,329. The amount now reported
by the Revenue Board is 8492,889.829—the increase not
coining up to that-ofthe three preceding years by 812,*
870,957, ' . . .
This falling off, • the Board attribute to the depressed *
condition of the iron business, and us influence upon the
value of property in the Commonwealth.
