The - Salt work• alone consume a great deal. of fuel, and the goantity u-cd is constantly becoming greater. • The citizens of Buffalo have already held a meeting favorable to constructingri road from that city (6 connect with the .Willlamsport and Elmira Railroad. This would cause travellers from the West going. South to pass, directly through to Philadelphia; instead of going on to New . York• as it would. be a much shorter route. It, would also cause the Philadelphia, Sunbury and Erie Railroad to tap the New York and Erie road, and divert the trade from New, Yolk to It wilt readily Lessen that this must cause a large increa.e in ,the) Western Trade of the latter city 'Phe Philadl k: hians are opposing, (and we thin very justly too,) the granting of the Right of Way through the southern portion of the State to the Baltimore and Oh'iCt-Railroad Co. They take the ground that it is only right for the Legislature of Pennsylvania to enact laws for the benefit of her citizens, and not forthetrinjury;, Many merchants seem to think .that the construction of the proposed Central Railroad, *old obviate all dif ficulties, and enable Philadelphia to compete sue: cessfully with Baltimore, btit there are some very s. tong reasons why this should not be so., The northern route is the mastdirect doe that rould be I projected. Sunbury ,is thirty mites nearer to Philadelphia than It is to Baltimore. while on the . , contrary Harrisburg is twenty five miles nearer in the latter city than it is to the former, and it is natural to suppose that:the trade would take the shortest route. Besides this the proposed Central Road would come in competition with the state canal, as it would run side by side with it. Un. der such circumstances, the probabilities are that thestoek to the Central 'Road would not be taken. There is little doubt, however, that the stock to the northern Mad could be readily disposed ef. It is certain at all events that very fewyears.will elapse before there will'be a railroad coma - ionic-alien be tween Pottsville aiiel ,Sunbury, and" then, connect ing. with Williamsport, to Elmira . . Altogether it keems to. us that the arguments in favor of the proposed road are stronger, and those, against it weaker, than can be brought in relation to either of the other routes, Something ought . lo he done, and that right speedily, fur the time has come when the merchants of PhiladeEphiecan tint aff)rd to remain idle while strenuous efforts are bet;ig made to take all the tradefrom that City.— Lot them look to their interests, and let the people fl Ion; the proposed route 'do something to further Ely pr...j-et, for they would all assuredly be ben befitted by the enrr t truction of the road.

We also learn that one p tition had upwards of fifty signMures attached to it—if so, wo have reason to believe that they have been manufactured for the purpose. We know that application was made to one individual to write out a fictitious list of names,, which be very properly refused to do. As all the citizens of Schuylkill c.huiry are interested inknonring who goes for and who against the interests of the region, we willyndeavor to procure a list of the Signers to these 'remonstrances frOm Harrisburg, and will publi-h the tame for the benefit of our citizens.-- These'who go against 'our citizens and traders, can certainly have no objections if-our traders - Mid citizen'sshould twit theM over to their friends, the Hawkers and Pedlars, for support. We understand that a person who is tup' for any little business of the ,kind for pay, has - been en• gaged to go to Harrisburg to "bore" against the passage of the law.

A DEMOCRA FOR TUE MINERS ' JOORNkI. Mr. Bannan: 7 -11y attention was. / al awn to en editorial article in this merinos; a' "Democratic Press," on the subject: of the 111nrket Street Rail Road,' which I think requiresa/notice, in order to put the matter right with th aw who mast, chance to read it, and who are t /nacquainted with the facts. If the publicecon was confined to this 'place, it would not hinecessary to contradict what every one convers,Mt with the matter knows to be untrue—and evlaich the writer knew to be untrue 'when he peened the ankle. If he had read the proceedlogi of a ve-y large and respectable. meet ing of / the citizens of the Borough, held at the .houe'of Mortimer & Fox, which were handed to him for publication, and which he has seen proper 'riot to publish, he would have known the senti ments or at least a portion of the Community on die subject - Of the Rail Road—and if he had been diSposed to give correct information through the columns of his paper, he knew where to get-it, as regards that part of his statement..in • which he says "land owners are obliged by their engage ments with their Lessees to reduce their rents, on the Coal mined ten cents per ron" in the event of the removal of the road- r thislen cents, he says. will cover the, additional cost of transportation, if the coal has to be hauled on carts or wagons—this assertion that the landowners are obligerLby their engagements with their lessees, to redUre their rents ten•cents per ton, is unqualifiedly false—no such agreement exists—or ever did exist. I do not blame the writer of the article. foisaying what Ire did not know, hut for not saying What he did know, which I think it was his duty to do,when he undertook to enlighten people at atiistrince= and with his permission, I will endeavor to inake up the deficiency. He knew that the whole opposition to this Rail Road did not 'consist aline out of every 20 of the innabitants.of the Borough; and he mild have easily proven it, by drawing the attention of the public to 3 meeting called by him arid his friends; for. afterthaving their handbills primed up fir sev% eral dayS, end calling on the people through the coluntret of a public piper, and straining every nerve to getup an excitement. and consequently a large, meeting, when the evening - arrived. it . Was coniVesed of IE3 pere:Mlß all told, every one of which, Olelieve, had an lace of some kind in the meeting; they refused to let any one participate in' the meeting. unless they were opposed to the road. Many of the citizens who had attended,. under the impressjon,that it was to be for the purpose of ex pressing, public opinion generally,, and who were I excluded-front doing so, proposed calling such a meeting on the next Monday evening (this was Saturday) which was accordingly done, a nil every one wins invited ; the notice was 'short, but the meeting was at least ten times as large as the pre vious.one. and some of those opposed to the road were present; and all matters connected with it were fully discussed, and resolutions in favor of it passed unanimously. . . . He also knows that if the questitin was stibillit ted to the inhabitants of the BOrough, as to Wheth er the coal Was to be hauled on the Rail Road, as it has been for.the . last 'nine years. or on carts or waone, that not one in fifty would prefer the lat ter mode; and he also knows that a large majority of the people on Market . street prefer the Railroad to the carts an.; wagons--and he knows ftirther that the parties interested never •would_ have up. plied to the Legislature for a charter if ' they had not been forced to do so. - 4 threats made by those opposed to the road, to have it tout up by some means or other•=and did not wish, to have their business interfered with and works stopped after a very heavy outlay of mouey fur improvements of thfferent kinds.
