Columbia Railroad, Pennsylvawlrt/Canal and
Allegheny Portage Railroad, the three to

delphia and Pittsburg, and bringing them
into oommertial communication with cach e
other. When these works were in Inc
cessilil operation, the Pennsylvania Rail
road Company obtained a .chartorll in pursu.

metropolis of Eastern j and the other of Weil
- tern Pennsylvania, have been connected by
a different and inop*wpeditions line ofstrav

States. At first the State Legislature =a--
trained the company entirely from carrying
freight upon their road, lest it might dunin.

the State that carried goods in the same di
rechtratl-•altnost upon uplwallel 'line:—
Afterwards, however, they Wore permitted
by law to carry freight, dining the sea
son that navigation was closed, on condition
that they would pay tho same toll to the
Commonwealth that would be received on
the canal fOr the same article, and at a later
day they were permitted to carry frpig,llt
at all seasons of the year,' and of all kinds,
in consideration whereof:the company was
to pay to the State a certain tat on every
