We regret to learn, by letters from
Harrisburg, that the supplementary bill
introduced into the Senate by Mr. Darsie,
in reference to the Pittsburgh and Con
nallsviile Railroad Company, meats v. iii
strong opposition from the Philadelphia
members, and Philadelphia influence.
This supplement, it will be recollected,
gives the Company power to connect, at
.some point to be agreed upon, with lh
Central road, and also to extend the ro-d
West to the State Line. Its object is to
enable xht Company to transfer their
means, and their machinery of officers,
already in operation, to the construc
tion of a Western Railroad, to be connec
ted with the Central road at, or eome
nhere cast of this city. Such an object
it was -supposed, would meet with the
hearty concurrewce of Philadelphia, as, if
carried out, it would as effectually aid in
establishing her western communications,
as any other mode which could be devi
sed. We had hoped that the late disa
greeable differences would be permitted
to slumber, ana that present and future
rood fellowship and harmony would bury
i!ie past in oblivion. But if this course
is ta be peroisted in, we see no probabili
ty tiiat there can be aiiv fn

co-ope-
