I herewith return' to the Senate in which it
originated, bill No. 547 Added an ACt to va
cate o.lk Alley in - the borough of Easton in the
county of Northampton with my objections.
The corporate powers conferred upon bor
oughs, whether incorporated by the courts or
Legisla.tUre, are cleary and °ruefully defined by
the Act of the 3d of *April 1851. By reference
to this law, which has been found to work
with admirable convenience, and. to have given
general satislliction the power is given to "sur
vey, lay out, ena ct and ordain such roads,
streets, lanes, courts and common sewers as
they may deem necessary," and again, "to
prohibit the erection or • construction of any
buildings or work, excavation Or other obstruc
tion to the opening, widening, straightening
and convenient use thereof ; and again ;
regulate the roads, streets, lanes, alleys, &c.,
and have all other needful jurisdiction over the
same."
Wherever the Legislature hes by general lavr
confided to the people the c.ontrol over that
which ultimately concerns their comfort and
convenience, such law should be duly obsecved
and respected, unless some unyielding neces
sity appears for overriding its provisions.
The people of the borough of Easton through
their corporate officers, are surely mote compe
tent to judge of the propriety and necessity of
the opening and closing of streets, lanes and
alleys, which are in daily and constant use by
Mon, than the members of the Legislature
could possibly be. The location of streets,
lanes and alleys is a species of Legislation pe
cutler to the constituted authorities of the bor
ough to be affected with which the represents':
dyes of other counties should have no more
to do than with the erection 'of court housei,
jails and other public buildings of the respec
tive counties of the Commonwealth.
It is due to the present Legislature to say
that considering the multiplicity of bills passed
by ,them at the present session, but few have
been made the subject of Executive objection,
and those mainly confined to a class like the
present, which for want of time, at the close of
the session, cannot be as carefully scrutinised
as the importance of the interests to be effected
would seem to demand.
Believing therefore, that the power is lodged
where it should be, ith the people of their re
spective boroughs, who under the Act of 1861
are to be duly notified of any contemplated
t chinge; I. am free to avow my reluctance to
sanction legislation which deprives them of a
thoroughfare - without their knowledge and eon-
sent. For these reasons I withhold my ap
proval,

No. 9b5 - senate bill—to the Senate in which it
originated, entitled "an Act to iraoorporate the
Nesquffiiiiny Valley llailroad company."
The milimited power conferred by the third
section of this bill constrained me to withhold
my approval.
The Act of the 19th February, 1849, regula
ting the 'organization of Railroad companies,
provides, that'wheneVer a special Act shall be
passed anthoriting, the construction of a railroad
and aerial's' requirements are' complied with,
letters patent are: issued by the Governor con
ferring' the , necessary corporate Power. This
genersi law, which. is very carefully named,
gilder:ft:ly 'Contemplates that but a single road,
shall be embraced in anyone law, Which..wiser
and satisfactory provision avoids confficte in 10-'
cations,'. and serves topreserve our oitizens who
invest their Money in such public enterprises
from ruinous and unnecessary competition witil
their neighbors. , , ,
This billocurlers authority to contract an un
limited number of breath-1744M8, without in
any way designating the, point§ of connection,,
and to : increase the capital, stoc k from half a
will on to two millions and a half.
The bill authorises theteoostinction of a road
from thelothigh Cants!, nesur the mouth of,Nes
quehony creek, in the county of Gar*, to the
headwaters of said oreek, or thereabout. Reside
the uncertainty of jocatio n to which this descrip
don rax) &rliy gives rise, as well as that which.
attends moithecdon of three authorised branch
roads—with three.other roads in the bill speci
fied Sind named—the most ;formidable objection
grows out of the clause *the, latter Part of they
third! Section , whichr authorizes a connection
withal! other , aoads "whio4 Ao.* iqe or MAY be
hereafter constructed ; contiguous ,to the said
Nesquehony Valley Railroad or its branches."
'Under this bill,, should it peoome a /air, the
:Nescprehony. Valley ,Railread company would
have power to- construct as many brooch roads
as they might deem proper, without limitation
of any kind, provided they were connected with
any other road in the vicinity of the main stem
or any of its branches.
The exercise of a power,so broad and nnqual-
Died may :result in great and threperable injury
to other roads, exclude other and equally enter.

The,bill proposes to abolish the court - of "nisi

jiulsdiction 'at law. By the Act of. the' 24th

and were directed to be tried by-courts 'of. nisi
pram, which were'to be . fixed by the of ,

said jtidges to direct the holding of :courts- of
riiaprias wheneyer occasion shall require.

accounts, the supervision and control of all
corporate and unincorporated societies or asso

facts material to a just determination of issues
and other questions arising or depending in said
courts. The determination of rights to pro
perty or money claimed by two or more persons
in the hands or possession of a person claiming
no right of property therein, the prevention or
restraint of the commission, or continuance of
acts contrary to law and prejudicial to the in
terests of the community, or the rights of indi
viduals ; the affording specific relief when a re
covery in damages would be an inadequate
remedy.
And further, by the'Act of the 18th of June,
1840,., the equity jurisdiction of the Supreme
Court in said city was extended to all cases
over which courts of chancery entertain-juris
diction on the ground of fraud, accident, mis
take or account ; and again by. the Act of the
18th October, 1840, it was extended to the
settlement of all partnership's aciximits, and all
such other accounts as by the common law and
usages of this Commonwealrh have heretofore
been settled by the action of account render.
This extended list of enumerated , powers, it is
not proposed to disturb in many, if not in most
of '"which, issues of fact, of very serious' compli
cation must neeelearily. arise. It is not to be
expected that all these issues can be determined
upon bill and answer alone or by the applica
tion solely of equitable lurisdiction. Issues
growing out of fraud; rights to monby, parner
obi" am. to a very large extent involve ques
tions of credibility which no master in chancery
can determine, and which it is the constituted
eight of the parties to have adjudicated through
the intervention of a jury..
To abolish the nisiiertics, and to leave the Su
preme Court clothed with all the above enu
Merated powers, would, in my judgment lead
to great embarrassment in the administration
of justice. Whether the nisiprios of Philadel
phia has been confined in its trial of causes to
the cases only which were brought on the law
aide of the Supreme Court, I am unable to say,
but under the liberal powera i given them by the
Act.of 18013 to certify lames in fact to the nisi
pries, and in view of the express prohibition to
try them in bsurc, it`it reasonable to suppose
that issues of fact in pending obmicery cases arO
certified and:tried by the former court.
Ina city so rapidly growing in population,
commerce, manufactures, and the mechanic
art; delays in the administration of justice,
which are often made the subject of very great
complaint, should le carefully avoided, and in
stead of dirninia!ling the courts, the public in
terest would seem rather to require and demand
that the number should be increased. It is a
matter of vast bnportance to the people of
every community thatjustioe should be admin
istered without delay, and more especially spin
a great commercial‘ and manufacturing metro
polis Ilk* that of Philadelphia, that the already
somewhat complicated =millinery of busineat
operations, with which all heir people are more
or lass intimately connected, should not in any

I herewith mturn, with my objections, to the
Senate, in which it orlitnated, bill No. 728, en
titled "an Act suppleznentary to the several
Acts of this Commonwealth for the-sale of un
seated hinds."
The bill provides that in cab of the sale by
a treasurer of a tract of unseated lands, part of
which is cledmed by some one 'else, by survey,
that within twO yam thereafter said claimant
may pay to the treasurer the amount of taxes
assessed.upoa so much of said tract as may, be
included within the interfering survey; and that
the said paymeht shall operate as 'a redemption
of the lands within said lines.
The inconvenience, if not impracticability of
this provision, to say nothing of the innovation
which it makes upon the well-settled land laws
of the State, constrains me to withhold my ap
preval. Tcrdetermirte thepro rata share of tax
es upon each interferstrke; would increase con
tlicts,of titie- r -now already too numerous—and
beside would allow mere claimants, without,
perhaPa; a shadow of title to 'redeem, thereby
otourgits& the existing rule, which confirms re
demption to owneis only.
Beside, - there does not seem to be any legal
necessity for any suchen/Wane:it. A treasiareest
sale of .rktract of hind upon which there, is ail
interfering survey cannot, in any manner, a
feat title th‘ interference of the owner
thereat Was'paid the taxes 'upon the •tract of
which the interference is a part. For these
reasons lam oonstrained to withhold my ap
proval of thelsill, and accordingly return it
with my objections. A. G. CURTIN.

' The bill &an:Mutes the president judge' and
his emaciates of Wyoming county commission

and clothes them with all the powers which are
conferred upon arbitrators by the Act of the
16th- of June; A. D. 1146, relating to arbitra
*ens: The report of the commissioners is to be
made to the Auditor General, and the amount
thereof to be paid by the State Treasiurer. • The
bill `ago provides for paying them commission

employed, to bepaidi,y the claimant, unless
an arsrd be rendered in his favor.

determine these questions. In this caw, no
such remedy could be had .to,reach the most
palpable misbehavior, or corruption, or both,
as the judges are to act In bothie, as
commissioners and Judge& . If. iths-sdd that
the bill does not authorise &My appijoat l tot
remedy against misbehavior or corruption, and
that by the use of the term powers it was only
intended to invest the judges with the power
to enforce the production of , boi: nr gg i with
out applying any correction to or and
corruption, the objection would bawls the
more apparent and formidable. The judges
would not set aside their own award, and could
not be expected to entertain charges against
themselves. To give them the powers of the
Act of 1836 wool(' fairly entitle the parties to
the remedies provided by that law. But, aside
from all this, the usual and moat saUActory
references of these cases are -to the officers who
are in possession of the docurnentaray,.evidence
connected with the claims, and who sit for
'hearing where the justice of each and every
claim is more nearly arrived at than it could
possibly be in some county remote front
seat of government. With every desire to see
full justice done in every case, I should greatly
fear a departure from the usual and enatemary
mode might lead to constant lose of the. palate
revenue, and result in a system oftigisLltlon
which would carry the claims for and against
the Commonwealth away from the inspootion
and sorutloy of 'those to whim thelitiv hits vary
wisely entrusted them. -For these- mese., I
withhold my signature from this hilt
