FOR CANAL COMMISSIONER:
WILLIAM B. FOSTER, JR,
OF BRADFORD COUNTY
VLTO 5113,,ta1c.--The Post of to.morrow will con .
tein the very excellent message of Gov. Suutix, as .
•igning reasons why he cannot sign the bill "incorpo.
rating the Managers and Company of the Coneatoga
Steam Mills in the city or Lancaster, l'enn.ylrania."
Mir The proceedings or the Rail Rudd meeting in
Pat Tovnbhip will appear to-mw row.
We learn from a passenger who came in the "Good
Intent FAO Line," that the "Right of Way" hill
posted second reading on Friday afternoon, yea.s
nays 48. The bill as it passed the House, contains
an objectionable provision, which, however, it tueli.
confidently believed would be stricken out, and that
the bill would finally pass nearly in the shape it left
the Senate.
The attention of cur readers is earnestly du err
ed to the cottespondence between DAt rLz. Matz:,
Loci:, a member el the State Legislature, from Wa..h
ingtun county, and our worthy fellow citizen Gen J K
.dooaecan, in reference to the question of granting
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company "right of
way" to Pitttshurgh. The reasons assigned in favor
of the measure by Gen Moorhead. in his letter, are
conclusive and unanswerable, and we trust will con.
since Mr RIDER that the measure Is one of great
im
postaace, not only to Western Pennsylvnnie, but to the
commonwealth, and that he will give the bill now
pending before the budy of which he ii a member,
cordial support.

A letter from Danville says--the Susquehanna has

Th e extent of damage can, ef course, as yet not seen

The Danviik bridge, eed the Catawissa bridge have
both been retried away, the heavy chunks of ice tear

Office, No. 81, MILILKET STREET.
THE Citiaens of Pittsburgh continue to be offered
an opportunity to effect insurance upon their prop.
erty, by a Domestic Institution, located among them
selves, based upon Domestic Capital, and conducted
by Directors, in whose prudence, integrity and good
feith;‘hey can readily ascertain, whether they may
repose that undonbted confidence and security, which
should over attend an insurance transaction.
To persons whose property has, already, been
damaged, or destroyed, by Fire or Water, the advon
rage of personally adjoeting aloes with an institution,
AT RORK. will lie strikingly evident. To those who
suffered by the Great Fire, this particular corporation
needs no recommendation. The prompt payment of
the whole amount of its Iosses—NEARLY TWO MusD.
YID THOViAND DOLLARS—is to them a sufficient
guarantee of future security.
It is the rare of all prudent men, however fortunate,
to anticipate calamity for the purpose of avoiding its
effects. To such as have hitherto escaped, as well as
to those who have sustained loss, the facility of pro-
teetion and indemnity, offered by this institution, will
be the strongest inducement to avoid the reflections
and regrets which must be experienced by those who
suffer aciatota Rope of reslitselios.
