CANAL CONMISSIONERSZ OFFICE, / . Harrisburg, July 23d, 1652. The President laid before the Board a statement in reference to the various mis-statements which have been made in relation to the arrangement adopted for the conveyance of passengers over the Philadelphia and Columba Railroad. Which was read, approved, signed by each member, and directed to be.published. Extract front the Journal. THOMAS L. WILSON, Secretary. The Contract for Carrying Passengers over the Phil adelphia and Columbia Rail Road.. The Board of Canal Commissioners having had under consideration, for more than a year, the question of the propriety, and the expediency, of assuming the control of the passenger travel over the Philadelphia and Columbia Rail Road, unani mously determined, on the 19th of May, in favor of the measure. To enable them to carry out the arrangement, fully and effectually, and with a view to the best interests of the Commonwealth, they entered into a contract with Messrs Btsionmix Sr. DOCK (an old and well known transporting house) to furnish the cars, and to superintend the trans portation; without any control over the fare to be received. For this service, they are to be paid a stipulated price per passenger per mile. An dttempt has been made to mislead the public mind,hi relation to the course of the Board, by the insertion of numerous anonymous communications in the columns of the press of Philadelphia, sever al of which it in now acknowledged were paid for either by the Pennsylvania Rail Road Company, or by its officers. To these misstatements, coming before the people of the State in the manner in which they did, no official reply could have been expected; and it was not until after the appear ance of the authorized publications of the Presi dent and Board of Directors of the Company, that it was deemed proper to anticipate the Annual Re port to the Legislature, and to place the facts con nected with the question at issue before the tax payers of Pennsylvania, to whom strong appeals have been made to join in denouncing the action of the Board. The objections which have been urged against the Contract, entered into for the purpose of en abling the Board to entry out the measure which they had adopted, may be summed up as follows : 1. That no public notice was given to invite competition, either to the Pennsylvania Rail Road or to others. 2. That it does injustice to that Company, and evinces a hostility to its interests. 3. That it drives off' competition, andtreates a monopoly. 4. That it is a lease of the Road to individuals. 6. That the Canal Commissioners exceeded their legal powers in employing persons to cam the passengers. 6. That the arrangement will result in a loss to the revenues of the Commonwealth. These objections will be noticed in their order as briefly as-is consistent with the subject. 1. It in true that no public notice was given, in viting proposals for the performance of the service to be required. That course the Board were fully convinced, after mature deliberation, would neith er subserve the comfbrt of travelers, nor the inter ests of the Commonwealth. If proposals had been invited, the Board would have been compelled either to give the preference to the lowest bidder, without any reference-to his business qualification to discharge an important public duty, or, by al lotting it to a bidder at a fair price, to have incur red the obliquy which is now attempted to be cast upon them by the officers of the Pennsylvania Rail Road Company and their adherents. The lowest bidder systein...has never worked well upon the Public Improvements. Whenever it has been adopted, it has almost invariably resulted in loss to the Commonwealth, by the abandonment of the work, after the beat portion of it has been done— by the indisposition of the Legislature to refuse the payment of the per centage retained to ensure a fulfilment of the contract—and by the consequent necessity of re-letting the unfinished portion of the job, at prices much higher than would have been originally required, keeping in view the relative Mont of each item. If this be so in regard to the construction of Canals or Rail Roads, where delays are not always productive of great inconvenience. it furnishes strong reasons against applying the system to the carrying of passengers over a great thoroughfare, where incapacity, or an abandon ment of the contract, whould be productive of a great loss of revenue, by interrupting the travel, and driving it to other routes. True economy dic tates, especially in a case like this, that, to secure a prom stand faithful performance of the service required, a fair remuneration should be given.— The price to be paid to BINGHAM & Docz does not go beyond that standard. They are compelled to invest a large capital in a depot and the purchase of cars, and the compensation to be received will not be considered, by men acquainted with the bu siness, as too high for the risk to be run, and the duty to be performed. But, although no public notice was given, the fact that the board had the subject under consider ation, was well known to the President and Super intendent of the Pennsylvania Rail Road, and to several gentlemen of well known business capaci ty, who were desirous of obtaining the contract.— The President of the Company acknowledged, in February last, that he had been informed, that the State proposed to assume the carrying of the pas sengers over the road; and in reply to hie inquiry, he was distinctly told by one of the Commissioners, that several propositions relating to the passenger business were before the Board, including one from his own company. On another occasion, when an officer of the company was before the Board in relation to passenger tolls, he was in formed that the Board had offers to carry passen gore at five mills per mile. Hie reply was, that "no responsible person would do it for that ' price." At the meeting held id Philadelphia in May last, at which the present arrangement was consummated, a proposition was received from the Pennsylvania Rail Road Company, to reduce the tolls to two cents, and giving to the Company the privilege of charging two canto and six mills per mile. When the Superintendent laid this proposi tion before the Board, he was asked if the Compa ny could not put the fare low6r at the proposed rate el toll. lie replied that they could not. Ho was then informed that the Board could get the passengers carried on bettor terms. In a subse quent conversation, the earns officer was distinctly told by a member of the Board, that that was hie last chance, and that it was necessary that he should reduce his proposition to the lowest figure. The first proposition was accordingly withdrawn, and another substituted, reducing the fate of fare to two cents and five and a half mills ger mile.— When asked if this was the lowest offer, he replied that it was. On the day atter this transaction, the Superintendent acknowledged that he was aware of the nature of the business before the Board.— It will thus be seen that both of the officers of the Company, who transacted their business with the Canal Department, knew that the subject had been for some time under consideration. If they failed to communicate so important a fact to their Com pany, if was a dereliction of duty for which tee Canal Commissioners cannot be held responsible. Should the Directors require further proof on this point, it will be furnished at any moment. 2. What injustice is done to the Pennsylvania Rail Road Company by the new arrangement 1— Their pecuniary interests will not be injured by it, for they acknowledge that the passenger buei nese over the Philadelphia and Columbia Rail Road has not been profitable. During the last spring, their Superintendent laid before the Board an ab stract of their paesenger receipts . and expenditures over that road, whichshowed an actual loss. About the same time, the present President of the. Com pany, in reference to an intimation that Home change was about to take place in carrying the passengers, wrote that .4 If we could have a guar antee that the work would be performed satisfacto rily, it would be a matter of indifference to us who done it, as it hoe not proved profitable." Where then is the injustice 7 They have lost money by carrying the passengers over the State Road. The Board have adopted a mode of conveyance by which the Company cannot-possibly lose en their passengers carried over that road. If no injury, as has been shown, can result to their pecuniary Interests, where, then, are we to look for it r- Not to any apprehended obstructions to be thrown in the way of a prompt despatch of the passengers intended for their dwn road. Any such apprehen sion would be prbposterous. It is not only the positive duty, but lit is the settled design of the Canal Board, to a ird every possible comfort and accommodation to assengers going to points west ward of 'the Slat road, and to facilitate their speedy transportation by every possible means.— If that desigp should not be fully carried nut, it can only result frdm obstructions thrown in the way by the PennsAvania Rail Road Company.— Advances have been made to their President to ar range this part of Ole business, but so far those ad vances have been treated with neglect. But, it is said, that the Company purchased the can of the old Eagle Line, and hence an injury will be sus tained. To this there is a very simple and satis factory reply, and That is ' that Messrs. BINGHAM & Dock. made an offer to the Company to purchase, on fair terms, theiti, cars running on the road, which offer was not accented. If, therefore, they sustain loss from this cause,:the fiult is theirs alone. The allegation Oat: on this, or on any other occa sion, the Board were actuated by feelings of hos tility to the Pennsylvania Rail Road Company, is devoid of the shadew of a faindation.lEvery favor, every facility, which they had aright to expect, has been granted to them. dome demands have been made and refused. If these demands had been ac cededito, the Boar would have been recreant to the trust reposed i them by the people, by alloW ing the revenues w ich should flow into the Treas ury of the Commonwealth, to be diverted into the coffere of a private' corporation. On all occasions their aipplicationshave' been considered with a dis position to mete out full justice to them, and, in no instance, has any proper or expected courtesy been withheld. The Board would fain. stop here, and draw a curtain over the opposite picture. But the improper manner in which this subject has been dragged into public notice, demands that the whole truth should be told. So tar from their friendly disposition having' been met in a corresponding spirit, the Board have been treated, in their busi ness intercourse, with duplicity and arrogance by the *sent President and Superintendent of the Company. The fo mer is an avowed and open op ponent of the avoidance of the Inclined Planes on the Allegheny Portage Rail Road—an improvement which every disinterested and candid mind admits is of vital anportaece to the future interests of the Commonwealth. 'Whether his opposition to that improvement arises from the !het, that the State Road will present',. line superior in curvature and 1 grade,,to that of N hick he has charge—or from a desire to prevent the construction, and thereby to collie the throw h Una to be withdrawn from the State works, and thrown upon his own road, is a 'natter of no gre t moment. If from the Ibriner, he should rememb r that the line was open to both parties—but, in orie case, there was no Altoona to build up. If from the latter, it is only another evi dence of the rapacity. of oflicers of corporations, when their intermi conflict with those of the peo ple at large. Anther . instance of the manner in which the desire of the Board, to accommodate the Company was met, must suffice. At the earnest solicitation of the Company, the Board kept the ti fi Allegheny Portage Rail Road open for transporta tion, during the s spension of Navigation, on the Canal last season, t a loss of $32,000. This loss resulted, for the greater part, from the action of the Company, who, atter having had the advantage of the Winter transpOrtation over the Portage Road extended to them!, turned round and refused the transporters doing business over die State works, the privilege of transporting goods over their road, at a fair price. The consequence was—that the freights of these transporters between Philadelphia and Pittsburg, were sent by the way of Baltimore, and by the Baltiniore and Ohio Rail Road. The loss of revenue, to the shape of tolls, over the Philadelphia and : olumbia and the Allegheny Port age Rail" Roads, 14 this unwise and illiberal course of Pennsylvan a Rail Road Company, amounted to about 820,000. . _ These facts go o show that there was cause for hostility, but that any such feeling ever controlled the action of the board, is totally unfounded. The last annual repol of the President and Directors effectually discredits any such allegation. Tho Board do not view the Pennsylvania Railroad, if its affairs 'are managed in a liberal and enlightened spirit, hs a rival the State improvements, and . they site always ready to afford to it all facilities not deemed detrimental to the interests of the Canals and Railroads under-their charge. t. It is a fact +ell known to every one in the least conversant with the transportation of passen gers over the Pladelphia and Columbia Railroad, that coppetion h e not existed, nor never can exist in that business, for any length of time., The par ties having the carrying of the mails, possess ad vantages which friable them to drive off, or buy out alll competitors, and the practical effect is, that one party mon4olized the carrying trade. The arrangement of the Board does not change the re sult. If, as somelpersons who are interested in the continuance of the old system contend, the Com monwealth has do right to derive the largest rev enues Ithat she can, from her own works, still, in this matter, she Will only assume the position here tofore 'occupied fly an association of a few individ uals, or by a chattered company. Passenger trans portatlon over this road has always been, in effect, a monopoly. The charge therefore, that the Board ' are about to credte such a monopoly may answer very well for thii use of political partizans; but, when the travelling public and the tax-payers come to fully underst t and, the one that the measure adopted will rediice the fare and add to their com forts and facilities in their transit over the road; and the other, that much of the profits that have heretofore gone! into the. pockets of a few, will hereafter enure to the benefit of the public Treasu ry, they will regard that charge as a phrenzieci ef fort tol put down by the use of cLaptrapg, a meas ure founded on reason, and justifi Loathe public exigencies. 4. The allegation that the contract with Messrs. BINGHAM & DOL is a lease of the road to those gentlemen, is not sustained, either by the facts of the case, or by the terms of the instrument. The Commonwealth has assumed the entire control over the conveyance of passengers. Instead of purcha sing stock, and appointing numerous additional of: ficers, she has contracted with Messrs. Brscaam & Docx to furni'sh cars, passenger depot, and su perintend the transportation. For the performance of this specific service, they are to receive a spe fic sum per mile on each passenger carried. The quality: and number of cars employed, the manner of conducting the business, the arrangement of the the fare, are alli hours of arrival and departure, and the fixing of under the direction and control of the Carql Boar . It will be-seen by a perusal of the coil, of the annexed, that it is.no more a leaseof the read, than the appointment of a Col lector, 'or the alotment of a contract for the com- Pletion of the North Branch Canal, would be a ease of the collector's office, or of the Canal. 6. The legality of the action of the Canal Board has been calledlin question. If the Board under stand the constitution, they are bound to regard the law aslconstrucited by the Supreme Court, to be paramount to We, (Onions of the attornies employ ed by 'n private (corporation. In December, 1842, the then Board of Canal Commissioners entered in- to a contract with CAMERON & WILSON for the car rying of all . the passengers over this same road.— Thu party who had previously, by their pecuniary resources, enjoyed it monopoly of the passenger trade, brought the case by mandamus before the Supreme Court. After a very full and able argu ment on both s des, the Court decided that the con tract was legal r In their opinion delivered on that occasion, they say, in relation to the contract, that "The State did no more by becoming a party to it, than farm its I right to carry ; and in framing the bargain, it had l a right to consult its exclusive inter est." This, then, is the law as laid down by the highest judicial' tribunal of the Commonwealth.— The Boardhatie not violated it in a single particu lar. If they had the right which the court say they have, to 1 6 farmr , out the carrying of passen. gere, no sane mind would doubt their right to enter into a contracij by which the State becomes herself the carrier; Messrs. BINGHAM & DOCK being mere ly contractors ko perform a specified service. But it is unnecessary to argue the legality of the meas ure. The Supreme Court has set that question at rest. Nor is the sanction of the Legislature want ing either negatively or positively. At the session of 1843, the subject of the contract with CAMERON & WILSON was referred to a select committee, of the House of Representatives, the majority of which made alreport, fully sustaining the action of the Canal Commissioners. The House acquiesced in the conclusions ofthat report, as no further pro ceedings were had, which would not have been the case, if :tliere had been any usurpation of pow er, or infringement upon the rights of individuals. The Allegheny Portage Railroad furnishes another strong case in point. In 1843, the Canal Commis sioners purchased cars without any previous speci fic appropriation, and assumed the entire hominess of carrying pdssengers over that road, and continu ed to do so until April 24, 1851. The Legislature never called 4 question the power of the Board to do so. On the contrary, that body repeatedly sanc tioned the mdasure by making appropriations for the payinent of the expenses of passengers service, and for the p4chase of care. This course of pol icy was continued up to the 24th of April, and the 23d of,May, 1851, when a contract wag entered in- "THAT COUNTRY IS THE MOST PROSPEROUS, WHERE LABOR COMMANDS THE GREATEST REWARD." CITY OF LANCASTER, TUESDAY MORNING, AUGUST 10, 1852. to with the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, by which the Commonwealth relinquished the right to carry the passengers, and sold their stock of cars to that Company, which is now enjoying, without one word of complaint from their Board of direct ors, or from any other quarter, the exclnsive right to carry passengers over that road. These con tracts are subjoined. There Is no substantial dif ference between them and that with Bisonex Docx, so far as relates to the carrying of passen, gers. The Board under the circumstances of the purchase of the State cars, would have felt it to be their duty to protect the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, from any interference in that portion of the carrying trade over the Portage Railroad. As these facts are matters of public record, it seems somewhat strange, that the Board should have been subjected to the strictures of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, and it officers, attornies, and adherents. 6. So tar from the arrangement being productive of loss to the Commonwealth, it will increase the public revenue. Drawbacks are now allowed to the Pennsylvania Railroad Company in Pittsburg, Harrisburg and Baltimore passengers. Those for Pittsburg and Harrisburg now diverge from the State road at Dillerville. Hereafter they will be ta ken to Columbia—making a difference in travel of II miles, and a gain to the Commonwealth of 22 cents on each passenger. Taking the business of last year as a criterion, these drawbacks (which will hereafter be saved) and the 22 cents per pas senger for the additional 11 miles, amount to $23,- 281, which sum will be a gain to the Treasury by the adoption of the new arrangement. In this cal culation no allowance is made for an increase of travel. No one can doubt that that increase will be very large when the lines of Railroads leading from the west to Philadelphia shall have been com pleted. Some idea may thus be formed of the ad vantages the State will derive from the carrying of passengers over the Philadelphia and Columbia Railroad, when the fact is taken into consideration that she will gain 49 cents on each Pittsburg pas senger, and 30 cents on each passenger for Harris burg and points west thereof, and east of Pittsburg, which now go into the treasury of the Pennsylva nia Railroad Company. The contract with Messrs. firsottinz & Docx is for four years. During that period, the gain to the State, on the business of the last year alone will amount to $93,124. The in crease of travel on the State road, in 1851 over 1850, was 22 per cent. hie, therefore, fair to pre sume that the. annual increase for the next four years will be 20 per cent. At this rate of increase, the Commonwealth will gain by the adoption of the new system, during the continuance of the con tract, the sum of $150,000. In the present state of thepublic finances, the Board surely need offer no apology for acting upon the belief that this large sum should justly enure to the Treasury of the peo ple, and not be permitted to swell the receipts of a private corporation. The allegation that the loss will accrue by the change in the item of emigrant tolls, stands on the same footing with the numerous other misrepresen tations with which the public ear has been abused. The Board have under consideration a proposition for a more equal distribution of the tare received from emigrant travel than now exists, by which the revenue from that source will be increased, But, if no change should take place in this particular, the tolls received by the State oh those emigrants will be exactly the same under the new system as under the old—the parties transoorting them after' they leave the State road, being charged with the cost of carriage over that road. In a previous portion of this statement, it has been shown that the officers of the Pennsylvania Railroad have asserted that that company made no profit from carrying passengers over the State road. Messrs. BINGHAM & Dncg are to receive five mills per mile on each passenger, as compensation in full for the whole service to be performed by them, with the exception of the conveyance of the mail. The Pennsylvania Railroad Company are permitted to charge 25f mills per mile on each passenger. Af ter the payment of State tolls, (drawsbacks deduct ed) they have the following amounts left for profits and transporting expenses : On Pittsburg passengers, - - 9 3-10 mill per mile. On Harrisburg passengers, - 6 6-10 44 r , On Baltimore passengers, - - 111 4 ,4, On way passengers, - - - - 51 fi . When it is considered that these are the rates received by the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, the compensation to be given by the State to the contractors for the same service as is now render ed by that company, will appear to be extremely low. Besides, the contractors are hound to put on none but the very best cars, and to afford every possible comfort to passengers. They are erect ing a splendid depot in Philadelphia, where the passengers will get in and out of the cars under cover, instead of being taken up or put down, as was the case before this contract was entered into, in an open public street, exposed to the inclemen cy of the weather. The officers of the company have asserted that this service could not be per formed for five mills, and that no responsible per sons could be found to do it at that price. The contract affords indisputable proof that their judg ment is not infallible. The Board have thus, in as brief manner as the subject would permit, presented a plain statement of all the facts relative to their action in assuming the control of carrying passengers over the State I road, and to the several questions which have been made a subject of controversy. They have made no assertion which they are not prepared to prove even in a court of justice. It is with great reluc tance that they have made this explanation. But they had no alternative. In the performance of their duties they found that a portion of the profile from the public improvements, which legitimately belonged to the State Treasury, were diverted into that of a private company. They determined to correct the wrong. They.did so with a conscien tious conviction of the propriety, the necessity, and the legality of the measure. For this they have been rudely assailed—their judgment ridicu led, and their motives impugned. The columns of the public press have teemed with false and ma licious representations of their action and its ef fects. 'Several of these misrepresentations it is now acknowledged, if not actually written by the• directors or officers of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, were paid for, either by the one or the other. But these oft-repeated missiles shall not deter the Board in the discharge of a high public duty. They have adopted a measure which will prove of great advantage to the Treasury of the Commonwealth, and afford increased comforts to travelers taking the Pennsylvania route. To that measure they intend to adhere until some higher authority than its interested assailants shall place a veto upon it. The Pennsylvania Railroad Com pany, under the present management, have made up the issue—they have proclaimed, in effect, that their rights over the public improvements are su perior to those of the Commonwealth by which they were constructed—that the revenues which should properly be applied to relieve a heavily burdened tax paying community should go into their own private coffers—and they have appealed to the people to sustain them in their position, and in their denunciations of the Canal Board. Let them abide the result. Conscious that they have have acted for the best interest of their constitu ents, and that the wisdom of the measure which they have adopted will stand the test of the se verest scrutiny, the Board will take no further pub lic notice of any statements upon the subject ema nating from the officers and directors of thq.Ponn sylvania Railroad Company and their adherents.-- They have other and higher duties to engage their attention, and, with this statement, they leave the whole matter to the calm and candid consideration of the people of Pennsylvania; with an abiding confidence that the result of that deliberation wilt not be prejudiced by the artful appeals of officers of a private corporation which is now seeking to destroy the revenues from the public works, by ap propriating them to its own use.

Being an article entirely differentfrom and much superior to 'ordinary powder, it requires a small quantity in its application, and yet so identifies itself with the natural appearance as to be imperceptible to the ni cest observer.
