(COMMUNiCATIID.) Klantingdon and Rollidags burg Rail-Road. The Bill authorizing the incorporation of a company to make this rail road hav ing become a law, it is hoped the subject will receive that attention from the pub lic, which its glee importance imperious ly requires. In coming to a conclusion in relation to this matter, one consideration should ever be borne in mind ;—it stands in bold relief, and ought, and it is trusted will have its due weight with all persons well disposed to the prosperity of our State, in forming their several opinions.—lt is this. The necessities of trade, and the force of public opinion, already clearly developed, are such, that there must and will be a continuous Rail Road from Pitts• • urg to Philidelphia, by some route. Such ing the case, the questions at once pre ent themselves, by what route and in whatmanner shall this Rail Road be made? .hall it be in part through the state of rirginia and Maryland, by using a pot.- ion of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail Road, :o far as the town of Hancock in Mary ann, or shall it be by some route or mites through the centre of our own tate NVithout in the slightest in inner lesiring to attempt detracting from the erits and advantages of that route, which would propose to adopt the Balti• nore and Ohio Rail Road, for a consid noble portion of the distance, or of any 7ther route, it is suggested for reflection, that this proposed road being made, the list.ince from Pittsburg by the way of the mouth of Turtle Creek and Greensburg, .o the town of Ligoneer, in NVestinorelatid :ounty, over favourable ground, already surveyed, is but sixty miles. The dis .ance'from Ligoneer to Johnstown, the Western termination of the Portage Rail mad—over the Laurel Hill, by a Turn vike Road, located at a grade of flee tie ;rees, is but eleven miles,—passing by :he course of the Connoinough through .aurel Hill, instead of crossing it, by a eve! route, the distance from Ligoneer to ohnstown is but from seventeen to nine miles, making a distance from Pi tts nirg to Johnstown over the Laurel Hill of eventy one miles, and by the level route if from seventy seven to seventy nine Hiles. It is believed not to be presump .uous to say, that by whatever route continuous Rail Roal may be urine, a ail Road between these last mentioned mints will be made,—made before many ears, and at a comparatively small ex )ense. If this State, or some other 'moony, do not make that part from iittsburg to the mouth of 'Turtle Creek, he Baltimore anti Ohio Rail Road Com any, must, and will make it. This would educe the distance of the road to he, wide, to connect with Johnstown, twelve niles. A Rail Road front Pittsburg to ohnstown, being thus made, anti the pre ent proposed Rail Road to Huntingdon eiog_completed, we have a continuous . Rail — Rood to the east of the Allegheny Mountains, and within a distance from Harrisburg, by the valley of the Juniata, if about one hundred miles, and from Qhambershurg, over favourable ground, of ut about sixty five miles. And - this be nt done, can any one doubt but that there vill be sufficient public spirit in the state, nd dull the necessities of the public in erests will not compel the doing cf what s necessary to effect a continuous Rail toad, by the construction of that part be ween the points last alluJed to, by the, me or the oilier of these routes. It is al o to be borne in mind that whatever other mute their may be for a continuous Rail 'mid between our eastern and western mporiums, none other than that now pro °fed, except by the way of the Balti-' ore and Ohio Rail Road, through Vir; laic and Maryland can be completed in a horter period than from twelve to twenty ears, nor at an expense less than from fteen to twenty millions of dollars. By he route now advocated and submitted to mblic opinion and of which "the Hunting lon and Ilollidaysbur e ,i , Rail Road" will rm an important link , - a continuous Rail oad from Philadelphia to Pittsburg can e had in from firs. or six years, at an ex iense not exceedin,g in the whole, for what s yet to be done, o - f from four to five mil ions. Other and better routes may, and iossibly will, in the course of time, be dis overed, but in the mean time the Balti nore and Ohio Rail Road, will have been ___. ompleted to Wheeling, the vast and in reasing trade of the Mississippi will have aken tie course of that road to Haiti pore—will have set thitherto in a current on strong to be counteracted, and then our tate may make a continuous Rail Road o bring and accomodate a trade within its , wn limits which might have been. It it olemnly believed by many who are best cquainted with this subject, that on the akin or not making, of the H untingdon nil Hollidaysburg Rail Road, depends he decision of this question. ‘Vhat say ou Pennsylvanians? shall the current of rade from east to west, and the continu-, us Rail Road (for all practical purpo-' es,) be from Wheeling, through the state t Virginia and Maryland or shall it be hrough the centre of your own state? ow shall it be? On yourselves it de• ends. To those who, from their local situation,' best acquainted with the route of this' 3roposed kail Road, from Hollidaysburg o Huntingdon, little need be said. Suct► enow that during a portion of each year, since the construction of our public works, he existence of such a work even if oth trwiee unconnected and by itself alone, could have been of great public benefit pc' convenience. Last year, by reason of t s.non -existence , those connected with, trade and the interests of the state, suf fered to an amount greater than sufficient to make this Road. And it is well known that the local trantipbrtatioh; necessarily occurring along the route of this Road, will be nearly equal to the whole amount of trade, for the accommodation of which similar works have been constructed. It is therefore eXpetted that every Pennsylvanian, if he cannot assist towards the construction of this Road to the ex tent that he would wish to do, wilt yet do what he can. PINNSTLVANIA THE SOCIAL Atractions.—The affec tions are only immortal, when they are left as a preparation for higher modes of existence; the germ wilt increase and fructify, only when it receives the influ ences of the most elevated motives; and otherwise it will wither. This germ, whose buds are sympathy, and whose flower is benevolence, is generosity; a true vital element, an expansive power, which breaking the narrow barriers of self love, first teaches man that there is an end without himself.

THE GiREJTEST OF HU• 01.1 X BENEF.ICTORST Citizens of Morth anti South sinterica, To Louis OFFON GOELICKE, M. D., of Germany, [Europe] belongs the imper ishable honor of adding a new and precious doctrine to the Sciences of Medicine—a doctrine which, though vehemently op posed by many of the faculty, of which he is a valuable member,) he proves to be as well founded intruth as any doctrine of Holy Writ—a doctrine upon the variety of which are suspended the lives of mil lions of our race, and which he boldly challenges his opposers to refute, viz: Consumption is a disease always occa sioned by a disordered state of Vis Vitae (or life principle) of the human body: of ten secretly lurking in the sys'em for years before there is the least complaint of the Lungs—and which may be as certainly though not so quickly, cured as a com mon cold or a simple headache. An in valuably precious doctrine this, as it im parts an important lesson to the apparently health of both sexes, teaching them that this insidious foe may be an unobserved inmate of their "clayey houses" even while they imagine themselves secure from its attacks, teaching them that the great secret in the art of prescreen& health is to pluck out the disease while in the blade, and not wale till the full grown ear. This illustrious benefactor of man is al so entitled to your unfeigned gratitude, and the gratitude of a world, for the in vention of his machtess sanatire,—whose healing fiat may justly claim for it such a !title, since it has so signally triumphed over our great common enemy eonsump Lion, both in the first and last stages,— medicine which has thoroughly filled the yam= in the Meteria Medics, and there ' by proved itself the Conqueror of Physi cians—a medicine, for winch all mankind will have abundant cause to bless the beneficient hand of a kind Providence,- —a medicine, whose wondrous virtues have been so glowingly poi trayed even by some of our clergy, in their pastoral visits to the sick chamber; by which means they often become the happy instruments of changing despondency into hope, sickness into health, and sadness of friends into joyfulnesi.

Though we shall refrain from an expression of our opinion, either of the soundness or unsoundness of Dr. Goelicke's new doc trine, we are happy to say that we deem his Sanativ too valuable not to be general ly known—for what our eyes behold and our ears hear, we must believe. We hereby state, that when Dr. Louis OfTon Goelicke first came before the Ger man public, as the pretended discoverer of a new doctrine and a new medicine, we held him in the highest contempt, believ ing and openly pronauncing him to be a base imposter and the prince of quacks. But, on hearing so much said about the Sanative, against it and for it, we were induced, from motives of curiosity mere ly, to make trial of its reputed virtues, upon a number of our most hopeless pa tients; and we now deem it our bounden duty (even at the expense of our self in terest) publickly to acknowledge its effi cacy in curing not only consumption, but other fearful maladies, which we have heretofore belived to be incurable. Our contempt fur the discoverer of this medi c,ne was at once swallowed up in our ut ter astonishment at these unexpected re sults; and, as amends for our abuse of him, we do frankly confess to the world, that we believe him a philanthropist who does honor to the profession, and to our coun try, which gave him birth. The recent adoption of this medicine in- 1 to some of our European hospitals is a sufficient guaranty that it performs all its promises: It need not our testimoy, fur wherever it is used it is its own best wit ness.
