Rail Road Meeting.
At a meeting held at the Court House
in the borough of Huntingdon, on Satur
day evening, March 9th, 18:39, to take in
to consideration the proposed project of an
extension of the Portage Rail Road to the
borough of Huntingdon, JACOB MIL
LER, was called to thechair, JOHN Sime
sax and CAHLEI A. NEWINGHAM„ were
appointed Vice Presidents, and David
Blair, Secretary. Upon motion, J. G.
Miles, W. P. Orbison, T. P. Campbell,
Daniel Africa, David Snare, George Tay
lor, and Joseph Stewart, were appointed
a committee, to report resolutions to an
adjourned meeting, on Monday evening
the 11th of March.
At an adjourned meeting held at the
Court House, in the borough - of Hunting.
don, on Monday evening the 11th of
March, 18:19, the committee appointed on
Saturday evening, made report as follows:
It is a matter of vital importance to
the people of Pennsylvania, that her pub
lic works between the cities of Philadel
phia and Pittsburg should be made so
perfect as to admit of the uninterrupted
passage of all the trade and travel which
may be brought upon them at any season
of the year. But the experience ot sev
en years, has proved, that tho supply of
water jto feed the Canal from Hollidays
but g to the mouth of the little Juniata, on
the main line of the Pennsylvania Canal,
is not at all times, during the boating sea
son, sufficient to admit of the uninterrup
ted passage of boats requiring any consid
erable draught ot water. For several
weeks, during the dryest parts of the boat
ing seasons, the supply of water between
the points mentioned, has been entirely
insufficient fur the wants of a heavy ac-,
tive business. Had not the Canal from
Huntingdon to Hollidaysburg, been so in-
jured by the freshet of last June, as to en
tirely stop the navigation on that part of
it, fur the season, its total insufficiency
for the exigencies of an increased trade,
so far as it is dependent upon the present
sources of a supply of water, would have
been obvious to all whore attention might
have been directed to it. Wheth!r the
supply can be sufficiently increased, by
means of a reservoir, is not a question re.
quiring discussion and decision in refer
ence to the question of the propriety of
extending the Portage Rail Road for how-
.over that question may be decided by the
test of experience, still it is believed it '
would be wisdom in the commonwealth, '
to extend the Rail Road to Huntingdon,
as soon as it can be done. The amount
of lockage between Huntingdon and,
Ilollidaysburg must always be an obstacle,
in the way of expeditious navigation. The
difference between the speed of the fas
test packet boat on the Canal, and a Rail
Road Car on the Rail road, between these
points, would not be less than from ten
to twelve hours. There are forty three
locks requiring upwards of two hours to
pass them (the whole time which would
be consumed by a loco-motive in running
over the whole distance,)—th:s saving of
time alone would cause a vast increase in
the travel, and in the amount of light
goods which would pass en the Canal and
Rail Road. Again. The great number
of high dams (being twelve in number)
constructed in the narrow passes of the
mountains between Huntingdon and Hol
lidaysburg, must •lalways render the per
manency of the Canal, between these I
points, uncertain. High freshets will oc.
cur occasionally and will carry away in
their resistless course, in part or in whole,
the best structures which the art of man
can invent; and when one of the upper,
(lams yields to the overwhelming force, all
below are in danger of being carried away.
One calamity of this description has oc
curred already, and others may be antici
pated. Therefore it is emphatically the
duty of the commonwealth to adopt such
measures as must effectually to - guard a
gainst the evils consequent upon such con
tingencies. The evils resulting from the
breaking of a dam ordains, on this part of
the main line of the Pennsylvania Canal,
during the season of navigation, are be.
yond calcucation. After a breach has
once been made in one of those high dams,
it is . exceedingly di ffi cult to repair them
in a permanent miner. Experience has
completely proved this. The navigation
is necessarily therefore interrupted a long
space of time, (luring wich the whole trans
portation business is deranged. our inter
nal commerce greatly lessend, and the
tolls accruing to the commonwealth di.
furnished in a ratio corresponding with the
decrease of trade caused by the interrup
tion in the navigation. These things all
point to an extension of the Portage Rail
Road, as the remedy to be adopted to
make this part of the public improvements
ofPenusylvania, to be as much relied up
on as any other. And upon the question
to what
is point should that extension ex
, tend ?it confidently believed that itj
fought not to stop short rt the borough of!
Huntingdon, and for this reason—that;
there are high dams thrown across the
river in narrow passes in the mountains ,
all the way from Hollidaysburg to a point
about two miles above Huntingdon, and
they are all liable to the same contingen
ties between these points—but immediate
ly above Huntingdon, after the river ipas
ses through the gorge of the Warriors
Ridge, it increases in breadth, and the bot
turns on either side spread out so as to al
low the accumulated waters a large sur
face to cover. They here expand and lose
their power for destruction. This truth
was completely illustrated by the effects
of the tremenduous freshet of last June.'
j Above Huntingdon all was destroyed, but
below it do injury was done. For these
reasons, your committee beg leave to re
f port the following resole hose:
Resolved. That it is the unanimous
opinion of this meeting, that the rein
monsvealth should immediately authorise
the extension of the Portage Rail Road to
the borough of Huntingdon at the expense
of the state.
Resolvrd, That it is considered by
this meeting as a fact which cannot be
questioned, that a Rail Road can be made
from Hollidaysburg to Huntingdon, with
out an inclined plane, at such a grade as
to allow a loco-motive with any reasona
ble train of either burthen or passenger
cars to run over it at a speed of from 20
to 25 miles per hour.
Rev)Led., further, as the sense of this
meeting that the Canal between Hunting
don and Hollidayslurg ought not to be a
bandoned and will not be.
Resolved, That if the proposed Rail
Road be made, and the Canal as well sup
plied with water as is practicable, so far as
the eastern side of the mountain is con
cerned, the public works of Pennsylvania
on this part of her chain of internal im
provements will have sufficient capacity
to accommodate a vast amount of trade
and travel, and that the confidence of the
public in their efficiency will be greatly
strengthened.
On motion, Resolved, That the report of
the committee, as read and adopted, be
printed in an appropriate form , and one
copy thereof sent to each Senator anti
Representative composing the presex
Legislature.
Resolved, That the proceedings be sign- ,
ed by the officers and published.

Pursuant to public notice, a large num
ber of the citi7ens of Tyrone, Warriors.,
mark and Antes Townships, assembled
at the school house near Tyrone Forges,
in Tyi one Township on Saturday even
ing, the 9th inst., for the purpose of ex-,
pressing their views upon the necessity ,
and importance of a Rail Road from Huu.
tingdon to Hollidaysburg, as a strength
ening link to the main. chain of our State
Improvements.
The meeting was organized, by appoin
ting John Douglass of Tyrone township,
President. Moses ltol)uon, Thos. M.
Owens, John Palmer, and Thomas John
ston, Vice Presidents—and A. P. Owens,
and Wm. Plummer Secretaries.
On motion, it was resolved, that a com
mittee of fifteen be appointed to draft a
preamble and resoluttons for the consid—
eration of the meeting—whereupon the
chair appointed the following as said com
mittee:
D. H. Burnham, J. Morrow, J. N.
Dickson, J. Armin, G. V. Morrow, Mar•
tin Bell, Samuel Douglass, E. C Beaty, J.
Neal, Jno. B. Stewart, Samuel Dickson.
Wm. P. Dysart, John Campbell, Wm.
Johnston, Win, 0. Johnston. Who af
ter retiring a short time—through their
chairman, made the following report.
Whereas, the experience of past sea
sons, since the construction of the Canal
from Huntingdon to Hollidaysburg, has
fully proven, that there is not a sufficient
quantity of water to supply the canal on
this part ot the Public Improvements,
notwithstanding the seasons (with one ex
ception) were unusually wet. And where. ,
as, the interests of the State demand that
this weak part ot our public improvements
be strengthened, and rendered capable of
meeting without delay, all the _km:Ands of
Transportation. And as we consider the
construction of a reservoir, one ot the pro
posed remedies, inadequate to supply a
canal combined with a Slackwater naviga•
tion of 14 Danis, which cover a surf;,..e of
14 miles in length, and Quo feet in breadth
--the leakage of so many dams—the evap
oration from so great a surface—the great
quantity of water necessary to Transport
East and West the immense and increas
ing trade ot this line—all tend to prove
the insufficiency of this proposed remedy
—the sources of which in a dry season,
would nut supply the evaporation from its
own surface. Therefore, the construc
tion of a rail road, appears to be the only,
permanent remedy. And whereas, the
valley of the little Juniata is possessed of
advantages for such an improvement over
any ot her route connecting the aforenam
ed points— being the nearest and most
level route—leading through one of the
! richest mineral. Agricultural, and lumber•
' ins districts in the State—there being 16m
(Forges, 5 Furnaces, 20 Grist Mills, and
33 Saw Mills in operation upon the batik,
or this stream and its tributarie6.— There•
fore
Resolved, That our Senators and Rep
resentatives at Harrisburg, be requested
Ito press upon the Legislature the impor
tance of an immediate appropriation of a
sum sufficient to locate and put under con
;tract a rail road from Huntingdon up the
;valley of the little Juniata, to intersect
the portage rail road at or near Hollidays
burg.
The report of the committee was unan
imously adopted, as expressive of the
sentiments of the meeting.
It was then, on motion of Wm. Cald
well, Resolved—That J. Clarke, J. K.
McCahen, D. H. Burnham, C. Bryan and
D. Garrett be a committee, to prepare a
statement of facts, setting forth the ne
cessity of Fitt engthening the State improve.'
meats from Huntingdon to Hollidaysburg.
The advantages of a Rail Road also. A
remedy, over that of a Reservoir. Also,
the advantages of the valley of the little
Juniata for its location, over that of any
( other route. Their statement, when pre
pared to be published in the papers of this
county, and copies forwarded to our Rep
resentatives at Harrisburg.
On motion of J. K. 111'Calien, the name
of Gym. Caldwell was added to said coin
mittee—The Resolution was then adop.,

On motion of D. 11. Burnham, Resolved
