For the Gazette. the I'r-nnsvlvanla Railroad-"lts Manage ment, Ue, Although this road is being constructed hy a company, and, as such, might in some measure be deemed a private affair, yet the magnitude of the undertaking—the vast powers conferred upon it by the Legisla ture—and the effect, either for good or evil, according to its management, it must ultimately have on the vallev of the Juni ata—-rcfhler it a proper subject of com ment and an object of jealous vigilance ; for if this is not done, abuses will creep in, and, instead of a public benefit, we shall have a vast heartless and soulless cor poration, swallowing with anaconda greedi ness everything within its reach. Whatever opinion may be entertained by others, it seems to us that there is something radically wrong- in its manage ment —that there is either too much placed on the shoulders of one man, or else the Hoard ot Directors and principal Engineers do not pay that personal attention to its interests which they ought to do. There is besides a great deal too much petty scheming—little acts unbecoming to any one—and a grasping spirit which, there is reason to believe, is intended to minister more to private ends than to the benefit of the companv. W hat, for instance, has been the course pursued in relation to the location of a Ma chine Shop ■ In making choice of a pro per site for such a building, one would na turally suppose that a few dollars and cents —either as a bonus or in the purchase of land—would not influence the parties to whom the stockholders have delegated the power. \et what has been the course pursued ! Why almost every little town along the road was told (in a confidential manner of course) that a great spirit of! liberality might induce the companv to locate the machine shop. <kc., there—that i it would be the making of the place, en- ' hance property, and rapidly increase pop ulation ! Even to this day, this under handed policy seems to be continued, for we notice in a MitHintowif paper that it is • confidently expected" the company will build their shop there; Huntingdon too still has some hopes ; while the holders of; lots at Altona, six miles north of Holli daysburg, announce that 44 it is well known that the Pennsylvania Railroad Company ' have selected this place (Altona) for the erection of their main machine and other shops, and are note building the same." In so important a matter, convenience for making repairs, the point from whence j assistance could be most readily sent in case of accident, combined with other ad vantages for accelerating business, ought to be the governing motive in making a selec- ' lion, and when made, there ought to be no secrecy of its locution. Another most objectionable feature is the company embarking in the grog-shop business! Little as it may seem, and startling, perhaps, to some, the same Engineers and Board who last winter de termined to discontinue Sunday travelling • are now spending the earnings of the road in erecting costly tavern stands, at which lhey will of course compel passengers to cat and drink, no matter how much out of time or place, or do without. Of all others, i this is about the smallest business in which a companv can engage, and will ultimately j result in loss, as almost every attempt of the kind by other companies has. Another error committed by those hav ing the direction of affairs was the running of two trains on Sunday ; but as this is now in a measure obviated by a change of hours, we will pass it over. Some time ago it will be remembered that the Philadelphia papers a great flourish about the directors having reduced the fare to a uniform rate of three rents a mile , yet in defiance of the resolution thus paraded, all passengers from this place to llarrisburgare charged #l.9o,when by their own measurement it is less than 01 miles. As this point furnishes more travel than any station on the road, these seven cents extra from each passenger will amount to a con siderable sum in the course of a year.— Who put on this extra charge is a matter some of our citizens may at a future day i inquire into. While richly cushioned scats and splen did cars are provided for the silk and broad cloth gentry, a miserable looking machine, more resembling the old keel boats former ly used on the Juniata than anything else, is dignified with the title of M ay Car, in which our farmers and others dressed in homespun are politely stowed away. There are other matters that might be referred to, but as I do not wish to do more than call public attention lo subjects that have been complained of here and else where, I will close with the hope that those most interested in the welfare of the road will take these matters into consideration before going too far, arid apply the remedy. The interests of a corporation ought always to go hand in hand with the people whom it was designed to accommodate and benefit; if it does not do this, it is no longer a ben efit, but an evil. FRANKLIN. MIFFLIN COUNTY, Junf, 1850. Popri.ATION OF THE MLAMI COCNTRV. The Secretary of State in Ohio, in his es timate of the population of the Stale, seta rlown fifteen counties in the Miami coun try as having increased Jort y-three per cent, in the last ten years. The first set- ' tlement of the Miami country was made but a little more than sixty years since. The above counties comprehend, in round numbers, 0,500 square miles, and contain about a half a million of people ! This is a density of 77 to a square mile ; much more than that of the State of New \ ork, which is but 50 to a square utile. This District will probably contain, in twenty-, five years, a million of inhabitants. An editor down East, who served four days on a Jury, says he is so full of law, that it is hard for liiin to keep from chcat n' potnebodv. i rom the HarrUburg Telegraph. UI.XTS TO Tin: PEOPLE. Hmn a p Slate i tf,f * nion has suffered more ! corr„np Dn6y t ,Um <rorn tlle rrrore ' ,oll,es . corruptions of politics, and too strict party at isclinienta ll er Stale debt is overwhelming and her taxes oppressive; yet, with all thts ■ , U P°" ll,e people, her treasures are I d , a . with a " ""Provident hand. All the income, or nearly so, of her public irn | provements, is scattered along the lines to keep , them passable, mich less in good repair. The system of paying otf active partizans with fat jobs supplying lumber, and other materials, i lor hauling, &c.,—has swallowed up our tolls or many years, while our State debt and our taxes have gradually increased. II the people knew why this was so, and how to app y a reniedy. we are confident they would not fo d their hands until the end wa/accom j pushed. \\ e propose briefly to oiler some hints i lor their consideration, trusting that they will see and feel their force. h or many years all Ihose officers who expend ; the public funds, and settle the accounts, have been in the hands ol one party. Our Canal < commissioners, our Superintendents and Su pervisors, and the Auditor General have been i ot one family ; and it is not necessary to charge open corruption, to prove that this fact alone has cost Pennsylvania many hundreds of thou sands of dollars. Party prejudice, party at tachments, and party partialities, too often mis lead the judgement. There has been no check or watch upon their actions—there was •' no one to make them ashamed or afraid," even though they might ba 100 honest to steal, out right, the treas ares of the people—yet, 44 when ones self is in the scale, it is hardly rightly ad justed." J n every State where part y power has changed hands occasionally, we lind the condition of the treasury always better than in those States where one party has been permitted to rule su preme, and have grown insolent and corrupt, because of their strength. For twelve years the mysteries behind the curtains of tiie Auditor General's cffice have never been exposed to the public eye—(and may that not be one reason why just st the tune when a Whig Governor would expose the se crets of that. 44 prison house" the r ppointment was taken out of his hands and given to the people, beiievmg that they were "still safe in their party strength ?) The people are now called upon to choose from among their own number some person to fill that office. Do they desire to know its secret history ? It so, they must not select one of the old party managers, whose interests are to keep them still in igno rance. Again, would it not be more certain to guard the money of the people it the auditing of these accounts of political favorites was to be done by one whose pride would be to detect and expose anj and all abuses of power? Would not that very thing make the disbursing agents more careful—perhaps more honest? Nothing can be more certain. It would save for the State thousands and thousands of collars. Freemen! and Work-doers !—'Taxpayers ! and State debt payers!— Would it not be well tor you to think over this subject and act at the noxt election as common sense shall dictate? You ail remember how the lamented Power, while Canal Commissioner, scared from the Treasury of the State the vultures of party, who sought to impoverish it by their lavish aid imprudent apptoprialioue. Has the lesson been thrown away ? will you permit another chance to pass and refuse to set one to watch two '<' While one member of the Canal Board is di rectly—politically—interested in watching the other two—(it matters but little to the people fur what motive ) —the temptation and the abil ity to do wrong is much lessened. Fear, if not honesty, make the majority more cautious, more prudent,and less careless and extravagant, and the result is that the money of the taxpayer is more sparingly and more properly applied. The opportunity is again offered to divide the political character ot the Canal Board ; und as it may be that both parties need watching, each will be as a watch set over the other, ud the people will teap the harvest in the replenished Treasury. This is worthy of every man's con scientioua consideration ; and then it demands that action at the election which republican integrity will endorse as well done. Let every Farmer, Mechanic, Liborer, and those who " ait at home at ease," examine these hints, and see if they cannot profit thereby. Destructive Fire at Columbia. Correspondence of the Daily New COLOMBIA, June 17, 1850. DEAR SIR Our town was visited last night by a most terrific conflagration. It originated about 10 o'clock in a large frame house, on the west side of the Columbia Railroad, occupied by a number ol Irish and German families, and owing to the combustible nature of the houses and a cooper shop adjoining, the flames spread with fearful rapidity, and soon another frame dwelling on the south was completely enveloped in a sheet of fire. The Green Tree Hotel, kept by Mr. E. A. Howard, and a large warehouse, owned by Mr. N. Evans, and occupied by F. S. lllentz, Esq., on the south, were also burned to the ground, whilst on the north, a large building opposite the Washington Hotel, in which vanous branches of business were carried on, was com pletely destroyed. Among other things the of fice of the Columbia Spy, which was in the last mentioned building, was burned to the ground. After the fire had raged for some time, the lum ber piles took fire, and all the lumber between Locust and Walnut streets, with the exception of one or two piies, was burned to the ground. The bridge was discovered to be on fire at one time, but owing to the energy of Mr. Wm. McConky, the Collector of the Tide-water Ca nal Company, there was no material injury done to it. A chimney in one of the houses fell down during the raging of the flames, and struck a man by the name of Augustus Myers, crushing his skull and face in a most shocking manner. He died in about an hour afterwards. The loss in all is estimated at about $50,000 r. w. j.

The steamboat Kosciusko left Albany on Thursday, for New York, for si-t and a quarter cnts a passenger. Judge Johnston, the Whig candidate for Governor in Ohio, opens the campaign by declaring himself in favor of the immedi ate and untrammelled admission of Cali fornia into the Union, and against the compromise bill. He is in favor of the application of the Jeffersonian Proviso to the territories; and in case that cannot pass, then he adopts the President's plan, as by far the best of those submitted to Congress.

REWALT. WARM SPRINGS, PERRY COUNTY- PA TUIR undersigned begs leave to inform the public, that he has recently purchased the Warm Springs, in 1 erry county, I'a , and lias improved and refurnished the buildings for the entertainment of visiters, in a style calculated to ensure comfort and convenience to all who may feel disposed to patronize the establishment. These springs are situated on the hanks of and empty into Sherman's creek, a stream associated with the thrill ing scenes between the early settlers of that part of Pennsylvania and the aborigines, whose hunting grounds lay on its margin. They are II miles from Carlisle, (through which the Cumberland Valley Railroad passes from Chambersburg to Harrisburg,) from which place visiters can at all times procure excellent conveyances. T hose also from the east, wishing to reach the springs by the Central Railroad, can do so by taking passage to the Ditncannon iron Works, (13 nnles distant from the springs) where coaches are constantly in readiness to convey them thither; and those coming from the west on the same road,can at all limes obtain easy conveyan ces at the Railroad Hotel at Newport, which is but a few miles distant from the springs. The finalities of the water at these springs are most extraordinary indeed for the speedy and permanent cure of SCRt)FI!L.I, TKTTF.R, h.ruptions of the ft kin, and in fact every epecien'of Cvtaneovs Ditto sea He hag hundreds of certificates, showing the wonderful cures effected by using this water internally, and by bathing in it, obtained as well from as from those residing in the immediate neighborhood of th- springs, who have not only experienced the infallible efficacy of the water themselves, but witnessed the game upon others. Prof. JAMES < BOOTH has analyzed the waters, and found them to contain S 3 grains of ohd matter in the gallon, which is composed as follows : Carbonate of lime, ... 2.G07 magnesia, - . 1.33 ft Alkaline salts,chiefly chlorides, with a por tion of sulphate, - - 1 093 Silicia 0.C03 Organic matter, . . . 2 ft'JT 9.200 There are also at the same place half a dozen of other springs, of different descriptions, among which is one of sulphur and one of cold water It may not be improper to state why a knowledge of the extraordinary medical qualities of these springs has not been more extensively known than is indicated by the certificates of those only who have resi led in their im mediate neighborhood. Years ago the property fell into the bands of a number of ln-r, ho were indisposed to undertake the re-pomibilily , ( makir git a,• lace iff pub lie entertainment—probably because the patronage of the public would not have justified the undertaking, a at that time (before the spirit of improvement had rend red distant and difficult points of speedy and cheap accc-- 1 its location was out of the way, and the roads to it roup;, and almost impassable. At the dealhof .Mr. Kennedy, u fell into the hands of his heirs, neither of whom seem ed disposed to take hold of it, but leased it to tenants, more for the cultivation of the land than a regard to the use of the water It was finally rented to Mr. Hippie, (now proprietor of a large hotel it, Tremont. Pa ) who made arrangements to accommodate the public, and dur ing bis term many invalids availed themselves of this opportunity to visit and test its medical qualities Mr Hippie however retired in u short time, and the pro|ertv agiin fell into the hands of the heirs, and remained so until proceedings were instituted in the Orphans' Court for its sale. It was ordered to be sold, and the subscri ber became the pun hascr- It wilt thus be sen ibat with the exception of the short time it was held bv Mr. Hip pie, no efforts were made to bring it into notice. The country round the springs and neighborhood is di versified by cultivation and beautifully wild an 1 pictu resque scenery, abounding iti game, while the stream passing through the property affords fine fishing. livery attention wiil be paid to the comfort and convenience of guests, and Ilie charges so moderate, that all may avail themselves of the benefits of the Water.
