Wati •'an enftmailunic Democrat and an ardent friend of theimerican Allegheny Valley Bail Road. Whilst_ the citizens of Pittsburgh are engaged in pushing forward the vaiiourßail .Roads and Plank Roads that are now in the progress Of.cons struction to and from our city, it may not'be im proper for us to remind them of the fact, that the good people of the region of country frorn whence the Allegheny river takes its source, are now adopting active _measures to bring about a con nection with' the'Sunbury and Erie Rail Road on the North, and the city of Pittsburgh at the South, by means of a Rail Road along the Valley of the AlleghenY. Our exchange papers from Clarion, Clearfield,.Elk, and other counties, bring us the proceedings of various public meetings which have 'recently been held in that portion of the State, from which we Nadi that the subject of a connection with our city in the mariner alluded to, is exciting the earnest attention of all classes of citizens at the present time, The Elk county Advocate, published at Ridge way, avers able and spirited little paper, is usual. ly filled with proceedings of Rail Road and Plank - Road meetings. In that paper of the 18th inst., now before us, we find the proceedings of .a public meeting of the citizens of Ridgeway, and other parts of the county, which assembled on the 11th inst., for the purpose of taking the preliminary steps to connect that county by Plank or Rail Road with other counties of the State, &c.. lion. haus L. Gnus presided. Various resolutions were passed, censuring Philadelphia for pursuing dog in the manger`' policy in regard to the New York and Erie Rail Road. The following resolutions Were also passed, after which the meeting adjourned to meet again on Tuesday evening of the February Court, 1851. Reseved, That our State Senators be requested, and our Representatives be instructed to give their support in lavor of the enactment of a law char. tering a Rail Road or - Plank Road Company from the New -York State line, via. Srnethport, up Mar vm creek. era thence by the valley of the Clarion river to Pittsburgh ' • and also a charter to build a Plank Read from Ridgeway, to intersect with the Tionesta and Warren Plank Road, at Tionesta. Resolved, That a committee be appointed for the circulation, of petitions for the enactment of the aforesaid laws. ' • ' On motion, Raotottf, That A. 11.71 lea& John Cobb, James Love, Wm. C. Healey, Wilcox, George Weis and Joseph Wilhelm, act as said committee. On the fith of January a very large Rail Road meeting convened at the Hotel of Joseph Ulm in. St. Mary's; over which Geonos Wets, f.sq'r, presided, assisted by a large number of Vice Pres idents and Secretaries. We copy the following from the proceedings: Whereas, We have been informed by a very creditable source,. that the New York and Erie R. R. Company, desire a connection with Pittsburgh through the _timber and iron region of the North Western Pennsylvania, and - Whereas, AS no route can be found in Pennsyl vania, on which a Rail Road can constructed with mote ease and cheaper than the route pro posed by our last meeting; therefore Resolved, That we will use our utmost exertions to form a connection through Elk county with the New York and Erie Rail Road at the nearest and most eligible point'on said road. Resolved, That although we feel reluctant to leave our old friends of the Sunbury and Erie Rail Road, yet self interest prompts us to this step. Resolved. That we approve very much of the course of the people of Clarion county; of holding a mass meeting, and bid God speed to their delib. . _ erations. Resolved, That we would recommend .a general county or'mass meeting, to be held in Ridgeway, on next February Court week. &solved, That the meeting appoint a commits tee of three to cOrrespond-with the commission. era of the Sunbury and Erie Rail Road company, as also with the New York and Erie Rail Road company. • , Resolved, That a branch from the New York and Erie Rail koad, would be the best stock in Pennsylvania, as it would pass through a very fertile country, and through the greatest iron and timber region in the United States. From these proceedings it will be seen that our Northern friends are determined tohave a Rail or Plank Road along the Allegheny valley to Pitta. burgh. This is too important a subject to be treated with indifference by our citizens. Car. rain!) , the trade and business of the Northern counties of Pennsylvania, are quite as important to Pittsburgh aathat of any other region of coum try. East or West of us. During the Spring and Tall seasons - an immense tradels carried on by means of the various little steamers that navigate the Allegheny river; but unfortunately during the greater portion of the year this beautiful stream is too low to!. steamboat navigation. Not only do . the Farmers, Merchants, Furnace mem Lumber men and all others up the Allegheny and its trib. utaries, feel the inconvenience of a want of speedy and: ellable connection with Pittsburgh, but our citizens themselves begin to appreciate the irn portanceof such a communication. We trust that our remarks will have - the effect of directing public attention towards the subject of a Rail Road along the Allegheny, valley. No presume there would be verylittle trouble in se. . _ curing the: amount of stock necessary to construct such a work; and that the stock would prove a safe and profitable investment, we do .not enter, lain -a single doubt. :A New Irivxtrrtota.—A new dad important dia. covery bee been made in Franco called the Electro.

It is dated New Orleans Dec. 27. Mr. Ball's experience in the trade entitles his *pin. ions to the most considerate attention. :n.We extract from hi. letter the following.-NCO. Bulletin.- While in Attakapas last month I made it my bush pea to ascertain, as near MI possible what might be the went of the sugar crop this season, and from the closestobservation and hest inforMation I could get, I made up my mind that the crop must be far short of last year. Since leavieg.Attakapaa,l have visited many plantation, on the coast, as Tar up as Fe!Miens and Baton Rouge. With very few excep tions, I found the crops much worse than the 'aver age in Attakapart, finding many planters - who made last year from four hundred to one theusaad hogs. heads. making this year one-third and one.fourth of that quantity, without being affected by overflow or backwater. and can hear afoot one parish which ex pects to make as mocha/ last year, while some'will make bat little over half. Besides, much of therm. ; gar made will be fit only for refiners' purposes, be. leg made from fiction and grout cane. lam now of opinion that nearly the whole crop of Isis State will be wanted for Western and Southwestern markets before another crop can be made, and that as much ' as may be shipped East will have to be replaced by sugar from the island', at a higher price than the planter" can realize now.in this or any other market' in the United States; or while they , supply ell the markets airenharienly, instead `of keeping their crop* at battle until the trained calls it , out, or sups ply our principal market,*, thereby bringing opera. tort to it from all other quarters in competition with each other. lam apprehensive that great evil ,ccur. aequently, to Louisiana will grow.out of this year's short crop and ships:mote East, by forcing importa. font ofeuba sugar, later in the season to supply the deficiency, these importations paying inch a profit, as will induce the shippers to try it another year when we might haao 4 great surplus. Prom tbe last quotation' of sugars in Cuba, they cannot be im ported into the U. Stater except at a ions of at least half ecaten rho prevent pritea, showing clearly that the planters of Cuba are holding back, while their, of !mamma are crowding every market they can reach. Being sati4ed early in the !mason that this would be a" short crop year, I have taken more pains than usual to satisfy mysel for the exteet.
