IRE DRY DrPCR AT PIIII.ADELPHIA.—The Phil• lelphis:Pennsylvanian winces at the propooition to meet the selfi4ll policy of Philadelphia in regard to the "tight of way," by n like policy in regard to the Dry Dock, in which Philadelphia it now very much interested The Pennsylvanian expected "better things" of us. If it would be a "better thing" to go on in the oldway, giving Philadelphia all she asks, and permitting but to withhold what she pleases from other parts of the State, than we have certainly com mitted an error—hat if; as we think, it i+ time to check the insolenCe end sslfi•hnee.. t.trdey's matt touching the Bight of Way Bill, is or shdmoss rtvorslikt and 'places the prospect of ik , sago a lmost beyond a doubt.

The Senate wu again engsged in the considera tion of the PennsylvaniaCemml Railroad bill. An amendment offered by Mr Bigler compelling t h e come pony to silt mills per ton-per Mile, on freight transport ed over tbe road during the season that the Canal is navigable, encountered the opposition of Mr Crabb , but was adopted. At 2 o'clock the members of the Senate repaired"to the Hall of the House of Rem. sentatives when the "Farewell Address" of the "Father of his Country" was reed by the Assistant Clerk. The //oust was engaged during the remaining hour in the tranrattion of private business. • • The "right of way" bill will again be taken up in the Satiate turmonow. The bill will certainly pass in ssume shape, and I think in such f3rm as to secure to tire west the benefits of a terminus at Pittsburgh. It n very difficult matter to convince members of the Legislature t ha t t he people of Pittsburgh ought not i to be satisfied with the Central Railroad—it is equally difficult to get them to believe that the company can continue their road to any point on the river below.— ' There is also prejudice against this company in the minds of some on the ground that it is the creature of another 3tatr; such men a ill tell you, however, that they are willing this company shall have the "right of way" if the Central Railroad Company fail to have one half of the stack subscribed, and place a portion of the work under contract within a year, and that they will then go fur a fair bill. The friend. of the"Ceutral Railroad," in the interior, appear de !ermined to leave the Philadelphians no excuse for a failure to make the road—some of them, indeed, act as if afraid that ills whole was got up to defeat she bill grunting the light of way, and are exercising all their ingenuit3 , to force the Philadelphians to construct the %NW k. Its this state of things that has eralan geted dor passage of the "right of way" bill.

To persons n hose property has, already, beets demoted, or destroyed, by Fire or Water, the adssn 'age of personally adju-ting a loss with an institution, AT HoNv, will be strikingly evident. To those who suffered by the Great Fire, this particular corporation needs no recommendation. The prompt payment or the whole arnoent or its losses—A . l4lsul Two HCRb• ■4D TliollsAfrD TM-LARS—is to them a sufficient guarantee of future security. h is t he part of all prudent men, however fortanate, to anticipate calamity for the purpose of avoiding its effects. To such as have hitherto escaped, as welt as to those who have susteined loss, the facility of pro tection and indemnity, offered by this institution, will be the strongest inducement to avoid the tedeetiOnli and regrets which must be experienced by thole who suffer without hope of restitution ALLEN, President.
