"We adverted yesterday, in some remarks. on /lije>Pedn4ylvama Railroad, to tKe condition of the Portage Railroad, add to the imperative necessity tor an appropriation, by the prevent Legislature, of a sum luficienl to -put it in com* jjlete order.' We learn from undoubted authority, that unlew an appropriation of $105,000 be grant ed during the present session—more than is now pfoposfd--lhat work will be unfit U} pass too trade pt the canal alone, In the spring and dimmer oi 1850, 16 any nothing of the trade Which will then be thrown opon it by toe Pennsjliumra Railroad, Which sexpected to be completed to the mountains ,by ;h>c tiffißr We are in favor oflho most rigid economy in the management of our Stats finances, hut .we deem it the highest financial wisdom to keep the sources of reveoue in a sound and effect ive state,!and to be-caleful ol preserving the confi dence oftbose who nsl out public "means of con veyance* This is essentially necessary at the preseiii, when new and rival avpnues of inter. COmmxtnication are opOn to the public. We, therefore, most earnestly suggest to the pembers of the Legislature, the propriety of mak ing immediate inquiries, and taking. prompt action on the subject. . SincA the above was prepared, the following .article'has banded to us, find we insert it with the expression of our gratification, that our Citizens-fteel the importance of making a concen trated appeal to the Legislature: ‘ PrrrsßoaoH, March 111, lB4y. Thames BakttetU, Etq., President of the Board of Trade, of the City of Pittsburgh. . . Sir—Knowing the deep interest which you feel ih the Welfare of our city, we desire to draw the attention ol yourself and of the Board over which you hive go long and worthily presided, to the condition of the Portage Railroad, - ** a part of the Chain of improvements connecting our cky with Tide Water. You fire well aware that the .Portage road is about 36mQes!ong,and passes over the Allegheny mountain, overcoming an elevation of 1398 feet on the eastern elope, and 1172 feeUon the western Alope, by inclined planet worked by stationary •team engine*. These planes were laid originally With wooden rails and light ban of iron, now in a dongeroos condition from long service. The en. gincs are supplied with water by ten miles of -wooden pipes laid on the surface of the ground, j«xpo*fed to the inclement winters'df the mountain ]region. As the object of the Portage, however was4o connect two divisions of sanal, which are in the winter by ice, this has not hitherto beenijh© cause ofmoefa inooQveoience. There are various other maltaf* iu which im portant improvements coaid be made of more or less magnitude; which hayp been 1 delayed and .postponed from time to time, on 'account of the Want of funds, to the great inconvenience of the public. But the time has now arrived when action Appears imperatively necesasry. It is now fully understood, that the Pennsylvania .Railroad. Company have' determined to connect their road with the Portage, at Hollidaysburg aod Johnstown, using it in the first instance, for the -paasageof the mountain. The Eastern division of their road is now in rapid progress, and the Board expect that it will be completed la HoliitJaysburg in the spring of ISSO. The Western division will be commenced this season,and the officers expert that at least 40 miles will be ready tor the con !n :tho spring of ISSL If the Portage Road be thoroughly repaired and • improved, we believe that it will' be able lb pass i the increased trade and travel thus thrown upon it, tor| some years, or at least unfit the Company shall be able to construct an independent road without inclined planes. But Cram inquiries of the Jiropef authorities, and partly from personal ob- Bervatiun, we are satisfied that unless ipnch larger Appropriations be made tor this object than are at present suggested by the Canal Commissioners, its [capacity will be found wholly inadequate, and a great amount of. trade aod travel will be diverted on account of ihe hazards, delays. and mconvew Caeca; attending the passage ol the mountains, to .other roales, to the great loss of the State and of ■‘bur city. ; The intelligent supermtendent' of the Portage, •Ml. Tt- J. Power, estimates that an appropriation will bo necessary, in-addition to that Asked tor by tbe Commissioners,'in order to put Abe road in sack order as to ire competent to paM ;tho additional business anticipaled from the Penn -Byl vf nia road, or even to keep ifin tueh repair as to tarry the canal trade fur eighteen months longer ' This ia»a startling announcement, and we ask that the Board of Trade should Jake the matter intoaerioua consideration, and if satisfied of the imperative necessity of -immediate action, should hring the subject betbre the Legislature in such form us their wisdom shall suggest, at their earliest convenience.

We know little yet as to the policy to be pursued in the distribution of offices. The cabinet mintuei* are all in their places and at work. Gen Taylor bas intimated that he will leave the fiatronoge oi the several departments to the respective beads of them. But ihat by no means covers the wh<-le ground. There is a class of appointments, com prehending an immense number of cares, which can scarcely be said to come within the jurtsdic' lion'of the heads of departments, such as ell the foreign diplomatic appointments, the consuls, the district attorniqs, collectors, mail sodlndian agent*, and a host of other*, bot nerosaary to be mention, ed—in w'hich the President s power and responsi bility must be ever held answerable tor the fitncis and character of the occupants of the office. By the civil nnd diplomatic appropriation bill the charge’-ship .to Chili was raised to a Foil mission It is generally reported 10-dav, that Mr. Peodteu.n. of Va. t late s mehiber of tbe House, will be nomi nated to that station.

The warmer Ibe weather and the bolter Ihe day. when the hail falls, the larger will l>e the hailstones. The Lad stones are most generally of an imperfectly round or globular form, nod not a completely transparent U>dy of ice, batj opaque, and of a whitish snow color iu the centre—«od hail showers are umver Mlly accompanied by ruin and strong wind* These are facts which must have attracted the aUentiun not only of every particular, but every casual nb-erver of pa*sing event*, and are. no doubt, foimlmr to you ail. And if I philosophically aud rationally account for these phenomena, mid them lo ibo formation and I'dll of had, 1 flatter myself tfiat you will do me the justice ol admitting that I will have theu performed thu task which l undertook.
