The writer, as his signature imports, tiles not belong to our city, (perhaps he is a citizen of Wheeling or some other place equally hostile to the interests of Pittsburgh) and therefore cannot understand the great necessity for such an iinpr ivement, o r ims agine the i nmetae adviintages which nor city would detive from it.

But this feeling of indifference can not be entertained by our own citizens.-- • 'They see that the contemplated Rail Road will net only be the certain means of re- Moring the business we have already lost atfcertain seasons of the year, but will place Pittsburgh in a position that cannot be effected by any competition. However doubtful its advantages may appear to the non resident tax-payers, the -'esident tax payers are perfectly satisfied of its great importance, and nil' cheerfully make almost any sacs ifite to insure its com pletion. The Order System. —The constant ex 'cuee given by the employers for not pay jog their hands in cash, was,they could not • affard it; that they must stop business if ders will not be received in payment for labor.
