My Dear Past: —As was intimated in my last, there was an attempt made this morning in the | Senate to reconsider the vote upon the ( blU relative ] to the Pittsburgh and Erie Railroad Company, i taken on Saturday last—but-it failed by one vote. Mr. Crabb, who made the motion to reconsider, stated that he had received -intelligence from his constituents which had made him desire that some time should ,be allowed For consideration of this measure, which,was of so much interest .to the State. ■ There will be a strong effort ,to prohibit either of .these companies, to, wit:: the Pittsburgh and i Erie Company or the Franklin Canal Company, from making the‘ Lake Shore Road to connect with the New York and Ohio Roads, in that re gion; and many think this result will be finally effected. This will be an excellent policy for the Sunbury and Erie enterprise, should it succeed. . A bill to incorporate the Fanners’ and Mechan ics’ Bank, in-Easton, passed to a third reading in the Senate, this morning. Also, one increasing the capital stock of the Southwark Bank, in Phil adelphia, to $400,000. This is the first show which the Senate has made for the old Banka this The House has been, all- day engaged in the consideration of the appropriation for the com pletion of the Western Reservoir. This, it is thought, will'be carried this year. All right. Hooao of ftcfUge. The selection or a suitable-, silo for a Houso otl Refuge is now engaging ibo attention of the mem* 1 bora of that Board. Various locations hue boon | offered, but tho cost or the ground, together wnh I tbo oxponso-of procuring a supply of .toll water, I and aewerago or drainage to carry off iho filth, haa I placed many eligible location! beyond tho reach off the Board, to this dilemma it waa euggeated lhal | come four acrea of ground, lying weal of ihe Pern-1 renliary, and belonging to iho Slato,’might Le ob-1 mined ; and at tbo State has already eipendod aomo I $lO,OOO io the construction of a aewer from Iho I prison to tbo river, which would be ample for both I inatiintions; sad iho.r being no abundant supply of I hydrant water, at. hand, this location appeared, to be | the aery thing wanted. By taking it the Board j would save some 10 or 320,000, so impnnaok item! when their limned means are considered. It was,) therefore, with faelioga of .deep mortification the | writor obtetved an article in lIIc (Jazrtte evidently] prepared to influence nod prejudice the citizens of Allegheny agalatt tho entire prOj'ect.
