[From the Philadelphia National Argus, July 4.] Opening of the North Pennsylvania Rail Road to Gwynned. Yesterday was celebrated by an important and auspicious event, which may be termed the harbinger of an increased traffic for Philadel phia. through a new and highly interesting re gion of Pennsylvania. We refer to the open i„,r of the First Division of the Northern Penn sylvania Railroad to Gwynned, a distance of about nineteen miles. A Committee of the pitv Councils, representatives of the press, and maiiv prominent citizens were invited on the occasion, and the party assembled must have been nearly one hundred in number. Judge KEU.EY and several distinguished members of the Bar were also present. The cars left the new and very commodious station of the Com pauv, shortly after eleven o'clock, and were draw n by mules to Master street, where a lo comotive was attached to the train and we were whirled along with great speed over an exceedingly beautiful country, in which highly cultivated farms and fields were agreeably al ternated with majestic and park-like groves, hill and dale, and watered with sparkling brooks and streams. After leaving Master street, the cars stojv pod at the following stations : —Tioga street, i Fisher's Lane, Green Lane, Oak Lane, City bine. Old \ ork Road, Chelten Hills, Taconev, ' Edge Hill, Camp Hill, Fort Washington, the Pennlyd, Gwynned. The rails on the road are 70 pounds to the yard, and the rail-layers were Messrs. Wher& *3l vers. Their work is substantially executed. Tlie Company have three engines of great pow er, the Aramingo, the Cohocksink, and the Shackatnaxon, built by Baldwin k Co., while the passenger-cars are numerous, large, hand some, and well furnished. The train was de corated with flags along the entire line of the excursion, and at every village and station, the arrival was greeted by crowds of people. Mr. John Miller WAS the engineer, Thomas M'Cann, fireman. We were informed by Mr. Du Barry, Principal Assistant Engineer, that the first three or four miles of the road were slightly undulating, with ascending anil descending grades, but betweeen sections six and eight, the ascent for a mile was 60 feet, passing over j n -mnmit and descending to the waters of Ta conev Creek. To Edge Hill Summit, the grade is 40 feet to the mile, and there is a deep cut through hard rock, 47 feet in the deepest part, and more than 1400 feet in length. Then the ! road descends to Sandy Creek, thence rises ! again to Fort Washington Station, and pass- ! ing over the waters and valley of the Wissa liirkon by means of lofty and substantial tres- : >, ! work bridges, it arrives at Gwynned,where I a handsome hotel is iu progress of erection.— About a mile beyond Gwynned, the road passes i through a cut 60 feet deep, and then u tunnel ! ">OO foot iii length, which is now nearly finish el, -.'til) men being there at work, the incessant Masting of rocks sounding like the explosions of heart artillery. We fearii that the road will then go over Hatfield Plains, and that there will he another ! cut 35 iV'K deep, ami another tunnel 2170 feet j long—soon after which it will reach the Le high valley and river, and thus open an exten sive agricultural and mineral traffic to Phila delphia enterprise. The regular business of the road will commence to-day. a. F. Jlop k'n>. K>!J., member of Councils, Mr. Peck, Mr. M'Call, and other gentlemen acted as conduc tors. and to these gentlemen, as well as to Mr. John W. (lillinghajn. the regular conductor, nil who participated in the celebration are in debted for much politeness and atteution. Af t r examining the Gwvmted terminus and its vicinity, the party returned to a new hotel re cently built by Mr. Ilirscli, whose public spirit i* kiddy spoken of. Here a substantial and elegant collation was spread by that excellent caterer, Dorsay, of Philadelphia, and l>otli the viands and wines were all that could be desir ed. After the more substantial jwrtionof the repast, bad beeu discussed, the Chairman, Thos. S. Fernon, Esq., President of the Company, rose and briefly addressed his guests to the fol lowing effect:— (I K.\"TI>:MKX : —A\ e are assembled to inaugu rate into public use the North Pennsylvania Railroad. Although, hut a short, space is com pleted, yet that jsirtion is of the most substan tial character. Mr. F. described the prospects of the country between Philadelphia and Gwyn ncd. and expressed his belief that ere long, the road would be entirely open to the Lehigh ri ver. The wealth of the Lehigh Valley, in coal, rim- and other minerals, was dwelt upon, and the interests of Philadelphia with the new ly opened conu try, were warmly urged. The advantages of the road over a canal were en larged upon, and owing thus far to the want of such a communication with Philadelphia, much of the trade and wealth of the Northern portion of Pennsylvania had gone to New V>rk. This should not be. The station of Fort ba-hington was named in connexion with one of the events of the revolution. The speech °f Mr, T. was able, practical and to the pur pose, and that gentleman was loudly cheered, f < Philadelphia Press was then given, and duly re>|toridod to. Ihe following resolutions were offered by j Milton Cooper, Esq. and unanimously adop ted : Resolved. That in that portion of the North • ennsylvania Railroad passed over this day, !' avo Sf ' en a work comprising a part of ioladolpliiii's great north route, constructed 13 a maimer promising permanent durability, ami traversing a country abounding in land varies of unsurpassed natural beauty and fer- Rf-o'ved, That to win back and retain the ..ad" iif the Northern Counties of Pennsylva- Philndelphia must have a railroad running ''C' t into those counties ; and the North "nnsylvania Railroad occupying such location ' crcliv rendered a work of permanent neces . to the commercial interests and prosperity f 'or whole city. The (hairman proposed the health of John James. Esq., with thanks for his financial . r '> and influence in promoting the North 1 " r.risylvania Railroad. ' ra "k with enthusiasm. •e party then adjourned, and visited the " "lis of Port Washington, on the summit '■ d :i, 'ghboring hill, after which the entire 5 '," J' aD . v returned in the train to the city, '''"lighted with their excursion.

" 6w3 HELMBOLD'S GENUINE PREPARA TIONS. HelmboUVs Highly Concentrated Fluid Detract Rurhu, for Diseases of the Bladder and Kidneys, Secret Disenses, Strictures, Weaknesses, and all Diseases of the Sexual Organs, whether in Male or Female, from whatever cause they may have originated, and HO matter of how long standing. If you have contracted the terrible disease, which when once seated in the system, will surely go down from one generation to another, undermining the constitution, and sapping the very vital fluids of life, do not trust yourself in the hands of Quacks, who start up every day in a city like this, and fill the papers with glaring falsehoods too well calculated to deceive the young and those not ac quainted with their tricks. You cannot be too careful in the selection of a remedy in these eases. The fluid extract Buciiti has been pronounced by emi nent Phvsicians THI-1 GREATEST REMEDY EVER KNOWN. It is a medicine perfectly pleasant in its taste, and very innocent in its action, and yet so thorough that it annihi lates every particle of the rank and poisonous virus of this disease ; and, unlike other remedies, it does not dry up the disease iu tlie ldood. Constitutional Debility, brought on by self-abuse, a most terrible disease, which has brought thousands of tlie hu man race to untimely graves, thus blasting the brilliant hopes of parents, and blighting in the bud the glorious ambition of inunv a noble youth, can be cured by this INFALLIBLE REMEDY. And as a medicine which must benefit everybody from tlie simply delicate to tlie confined and despairing invalid, no equal is to lie found, acting both as a cure and preventive. lIEMHOLD'S HIGHLY CONCENTRATED Compound Fluid Fstraci SarsaparU/a. For purifying the Blood, removing all diseases arising from excess of Mercury, exposure and imprudence in life, chronic constitutional disease, arising from an im pure state of the blood, and the only reliable and effect ual remedy known for the cure of Scrofula, Salt Rheum, Scald Head, Ulcerations of tlie Throat and Legs, Pains and Swellings of the Bones, Tetter, Pimples on tlie face and all Scaly Eruptions of the Skin. This article is now pre-cribed by some of the most dis tinguished Physicians in the Country, and has proved more efficient in practice than any preparation of Sarsa purilla yet offered to the public. Several cases of secon dary Svphtlic, Mercurial and Scrofulous diseases have en tirely recovered in the incurable wards of our public insti tutions, which had for nianv years resisted every mode of treatment that could be devised. These cases furnish striking examples of the salutary effects of this medicine in arresting some of the most inveterate diseases, after the glands were destroyed and the bones already affected.
