LEWISBURG CHRONICLE & WEST BRANCH FARMER. .7r.' And of one, humlml an,f forty-six miles for Baltimore:! This. -Mr. S-pwt- er,t s; he prcfered route from JJaltimnre o I he west. It is the route that will com pel fairly with the free navigation of the V luio river and the ronnsyivaum raiiroau for h J trade and travel at Cincinnati. Sir, I do not claim to be " prophet, nor the j h n of a nrophet." but " coming events are ! now cistiug their shadows before" us, and t is tiie part of wisdom to be forewarned. 1 To prevent trade and travel from leaving , Jic public works of Pennsylvania, you t iliust build up l'itt-iburg you must offer I every inducement at that point to prevent j the trade of the west from diversinc from : the OJiio river at Cincinnati, at l'arkers- burg or at Wheeling. How, let me ask, .Mr. .Speaker, are you to accomplish this, if you clog up the avenues leading from your improvements to Haltimcvre, and compel your forwarding houses at Pitts- burg to say to the merchants of Baltimore AVe can not carry your merchandise and freight through Pennsylvania, because Philadelphia, to avoid the competition of Baltimore, has closed up the avenues lead- ding to your city ! AVe can offer you no rliniee of markets, if you come to Pitts - l urg you are then in the Philadelphia net, anil to that market you must go wJmt r'ji- ns: r-ir, lo you think such a policy will promote the interests of this old Kcy htone titite? Would it benefit Philadel phia ? No, sir, she is a great and a noble city increasing in wealth and population in a progressive ratio that has astonished her rival sisters. She has nothing to fear from the rivalry of Baltimore, but could transact her business through that city as though it were one of her own suburbs. The interests of the two cities on this reatipicilion of securing the western trade mi l travel are identical. Tliey must unite heart and hand in offering all the attrac tions that both can command to induce the trade of the Ohio to pass the city of Ciu--innati. That is the great point of diver gence, where the cities of New York and J5 .tjii c uiie in competition with Philadcl pt: i an 1 Baltimore. Let the trade once '. ; disembarked at Cincinnati and enter on the channels of communication leading to the lakes and it is irretrievably gone. Pennsylvania must open every avenue to market she must offer every inducement i:i "hr power to keep the trade on the hlo river until it reaches Pittsburg. She must make freight and transportation cheap she must reduce her tolls the Pennsyl vania railroad urx-t do the same ave, sir, they must do it immediately or it will be t"o late, irrevocably too late. To think of taxing and imposing burthens on the trade within our State limits, with a view of in terdicting a free commercial intercourse at the eastern terminus of our improvements, is monstrous ; for while it will " not en rich" Philadelphia, it will in the end leave the Commonwealth "poor indeed." The rivalry of the northern cities of V.r YVirlr anil Bnstnn is wliut kIii-ihI,! ,rmi. niaud the immediate attention of both Phil- j a.d-lpLia and Baltimore and they should nr.;ki a joint effort to counteract the exer tions of those cities : in the first place by offering such inducements on the upper Ohio as would carry the trade above the city of Cincinnati, and thus keep it away from the lakes; and in the second place by constructing a perfect line of improve ments through Pennsylvania to the harbor of Krie on lake Erie. See to the exertions which have been made by our northern neighbors to secure the trade of the Ohio and the lakes ! Look at the numerous im provements which have been constructed ! carry the trade of the hio and the Mississippi to the lakes, and from the lakes to New York and Boston ; for to our t-hame be it said, there is no direct outlet from those great inland seas to Philadel phia or Baltimore, although both are nearer to the lakes than cither of the former cities ! I will refer to a few of those im provements, Mr. Speaker, and to the trade of the lakes to show Senators, who have not turned their attention to this subject with what wisdom New York and Boston have stretched out their iron arms to em brace the travel and to grasp the tonnage of the wonderful West. As 1 before remarked, Cincinnati is the great focus of trade on the Ohio. From that point the ( )hio canal is constructed ex tending from Portsmouth on the Ohio river to Cleaveland on Lake Eric. On this canal maximum rates of toll arc established, dis - criminating strongly in favor of the Lake and against its rival, the free uaviga-j tion of the Ohio river. The effect of this is self-evident it is a discrimination not milv in favor of the Ohio canal, but also in fivor of New York and Boston, anil con-M-fjiiciiily against Philadelphia and Balti more. A railroad has also been construc ts! from Cincinnati to Cleveland, connec- (hi- with a line of railroads, now com- pletcd, extend from Cincinnati by Spring- field to Sandusky city. The Wabash and Erie canal, opeus a water communication lictwceu the Wabash river in the State of Indiana and Lake Eric at Toledo. This, Mr. Speaker, is one of the most important irilmtaries to the commerce of Lake Erie. But a few years ago, and you could not find the name of Toledo on your map now, sir, there is one uninterrupted stream of steam boats employed in carrvinz the trade of that port to an eastern market, j Ja ths year 1849 there were shipped from J 'i'olvlo 2,052,07 1 bushels of corn 715,- .',45 bushels of wheat 142,452 barrels of i flour 7,M2,s7 lbs. of bacon and pork 5,05J,241 lbs. of lard. The value of r .e n.srchaudise imported and exported ; build up a Chinese wall between ftew ' r lite same period was 5,151,000 and j York and Massachusetts.and prohibit trade the tn'.sl value of the commerce of that between the two States ! No, sir, wiser port tor the year was 12,0!0,7S9. Does counsels prevailed. New York saw the not this exhibit of the trade of a little port j overshadowing advantages which the im which has sprung up at the mouth of the . provemcnts of that State would possess if Maumee since the completion of the Wa- j they offered a choice of markets at their bash and Erie canal astonish Senators? j eastern terminus. She saw that it would let, sir, let ine tell you that Unit trade is j in is infancy it is going on increasing at a ratio incalculable. Ami this is but one jx.rt of the many ou Lake Eric. I would point also to the Illinois eanaf, extending from Chicago, on Lake Mich igan to the Illinois river. That cai.nl connects the Mississippi river with the luki-3 and has a water line of sixty feet r.tid is six feet deep. The commerce of li ieago Wars testimony to its importance. TLcic arc many other valuable improve- mcnta finislied and in progress, reaching to e wucsj um, sir, l will noi wearj Senators by referinz to them in detail. I have prepared from an official source, a table showing the value of the entire com merce of the lakes both imports and exports, for the vear 1848 and I regret that I have not been able to lay my hand upon the reports for the year 1849. The value of the trade in the year 184$, on La " Lake Erie was ?115,785,04S 848,15-2 24,3-20,481 28,141,000 10,750,700 Go.,524 Huron Michigan Ontario, Champlain St. Clair Total S18G,484,05 i Showing the total value of our Lake trade, lor the year 1848, to be over one I hundred and eighty-six millions of dollars ! I Forty millions of dollars, sir, more than ' the whole foreign export trade of the U. j States ! And I have not included in lny i calculation the passenger trade ; in itself a . wort important and profitable item. One i hundred and eighty-six millions, Mr. ; SjK'aker, of a commerce concentrated on 1 your uorthern frontier, accessible within i your own borders, through the best harbor on Luke Eric and yet Philadelphia has never esteemed that trade worthy of her attention . How is it with New York and Boston ? Sir, I propose to show as briefly as possible and I take pleasure in ac knowledging my indebtedness to his Ex cellency tJov. Hunt, for a copy of his report as late Comptroller of New Y'ork, from which I have extracted most of the statistics I am about to lay before the Senate, relative to the cauals of that State. First, then, New York constructed her grand Erie Canal, extending from Albany, on the Hudson, to Buffalo, on Lake Erie. On that Canal and its several tributaries, I find the gross receipts for the fiscal year 1850, to amount to 54,480,172 SiO, and the expenses for the same period 044,702, leaving a nett income or profit for the year on the New York cauals of 2,841,410 SO. In the next place, N. Y'ork constructed on a railroad parallel with the Erie canal, and chiefly upon its banks, extending also from Albany to Buffalo. The receipts on this road during the year 1850, were For passengers, 1,87S,5SC " freight, 857,015 Total receipts, 2,735,508 Expenses for the same period, 1,303,727 Nett profits, 1,431,871 Showing a nett profit of one million lour hundred and thirty-one thousand eight hundred and seventy-one dollars ! But New York did not stop here. In the giant strides of her enterprise, she com menced and has now on the verge or com pletion her great New York & Erie rail road, extending from Picrmont, on the Hudson, twenty -four miles above New York city, through the southern tier of counties of that state to Dunkirk, on lake Erie. This road was completed and in use during the past year from Elmira to Piermont, and a portion of the year from Ilornellsviile. At Elmira theroad connects by railroad with the Seneca Lake; and by steamboat navigation on that lake a con nection is had with the railroad from Buf falo to Albany at Geneva. The receipts on the New York & Erie railroad, un finished as it is, were, for the year 1850, For Passengers, $303,209 For Freight, 416,931 Total receipts, 5810,143 Expenses during same period. 399,547 Nett profits, $110,500 Miking a nett profit of four hundred and ten thousand five hundred and ninety six dollars. This road w ill be completed to Dunkirk before the first of May of the present year. A Pennsylvania, Mr. Speaker, in view of the humiliating fact that his own native State is without a commercial thoroughfare to the lakes, would have looked with as toniahnicnt at the efforts which New York has already made to accommodate the trade of the west. But in this nge of pro gress let him not be astonished at any thing, fjr by the last New York papers 1 observe that books are now open for sub scription to the stock of the Mohawk Val- 1 ley Railroad, to be located on the North l Bank of that river, running parallel with the Grand Erio Canal and the Riilroad l. All.on.. n V., , IT, In Tim. mntm 1 1 Villi 4, 1 1711 11 J . ' ' .Hi ill... inuillll (he third iioe of improvement from Albany to Buffalo, by the same route, and the fourth great thoroughfare from the Hudson to Lake Eric ! ! Now, sir, I come to a branch of my ar gument to which 1 ask your attention. New lork having expended her millions to construct the canal from Albany to Buffalo, and the Railroad on its banks, thus concentrating the entire trade of the lakes ! at Albany on the Hudson ; the capitalists of Boston asked a charter for a Railroad ' extending from Albany to West Stock- bridge, and connecting at that point with Weatprn Railroad in Massachusetts, there j by effecting a direct Kaiiroad communica. ; lion from Boston to Albany. In other i words the city of Boston asked permission to 'Iap" the public improvements ef New York, at their point of convergence the very commercial focus of the Slate the city of Albany. What did New York do, 'sir! Did she refuse the request of her ! Northern neighbor T Did she propose to exercise a controlling influence not only on the lakes, but on l lie Uhio, and in the west, in determining the channel w hich the commerce of that miehty region was to pursue loan Atlantic Marker. She freely and cheerfully granted the request of Bos ton, without bonus, andtctthout taxalum!! From that day to this, New York and , Boston have made common came in drawing the trade of the Ohio, the Missis sippi, the far west, to the lakes because when at the lakes they enjoy a monopoly. No jealousy there, sii, of either Philadel phia or Baltimore! The Western Railroad from Albany to Boston.thua freely conceded by New York, is completed, and has been in operation several years. During the past year the receipts on that road were SI, 343,810, of this sum the receipts for freight were $745,393. The lotal expenses during the same period, were $583,322. Leaving the nett income or profits for the vear 755.459. 1 observe, sir. that 313,507 barrels of flour, and '273,600 tons of Mer chandize in all, passed over the road du ring the year. Let us now recapitulate, and see how the aggregate will stand. The Senate will then see whether New Y'ork has lost any thing by her liberality. My previous cal culations show that. The profits on the Erie Ca nal were $2,811,410 " On the Rsilroad from Albany to Buffalo 1,431,871 " On New York & Erie Railroad 410,506 Total profits on New York Improvements for the year 1850, To which add profits on Western Railroad from Albany to Boston 1,683,877 755,459 Total Profits 85.439,335 Making the netl profits for a single year on the four improvements n imed, leading from the lakes to New York and Bjston, five millions four hundred and thirty nine thousand three hundred and thirty five dollars ! ! And this sum, Mr. Speaker, surprisingly large as it is.does not embrace the profits on the entire carrying trade between the lakes and the northern sea. board. The city of Boston, not satisfied with dividing the trade at Albany with New York, has constructed a Railroad across the Granite hills of New Hampshire, over the Green mountains of Vermont, and through the northern part of the State of New York, to Ogdenhurg, on the St. Lawrence, thus accomplishing a perfect and unbroken connection between Boston and Lake Ontario, and taking advantage of the Wetland Canal, made by Canada, round the Falls of Niagara. To it should also be added the profits on the trade which passes down the St. Lawrence on the Canada improvements to Montreal and Q lehec. Where, Mr. Spenker, let me ask you, do the immense supplies come from that are filling to overflowing these great commercial reservoirs, and which are crowding all the thoroughfares leading to New 1 ork and Boston : Sir, 1 am sorry to say that a large proportion is from the valley of the Ohio, trade that legitimately belongs to Philadelphia and Baltimore, but which is ''spirited away" by the superior policy of New Y'ork and Massachusetts a policy which has drawn this entire trade lo the lakes by throwing wide open every avenue to market, and by offenng every inducement that human ingenuity or Yankee enterprise could invent. You find no prohibitory taxation there, Air. Speaker no selfish carping about 4 tap ping" the improvements of sister states, but you do find a generous rivalry which is enriching both, and which Philadel phia and Baltimore, Pennsylvania and Maryland, would do well to emulate. The time is come when they must unite in self defence, not only in securing the trade of the Ohio, but in in opening a line of communication from the lakes. They are mutually interested in both, and their united exertions are required to command success. The York and Cumberland Railroad, as before remarked, Mr. Speaker, is a most important link in any chain of Railroad improvements that may ever be made along the valley of the Susquehanna Whether the road be extended to Williamsport and thus connected with the New York Rail roads and Canals by means of the William sport and Elmira Railroad ; or continued by the route of the Snnbury and Erie Rail road to the harbor of Erie, it holds in eith er case the same important positiou. Cast your eyes upon the map sir, and look for the meridian of Washington trace that line and you will find that Washington, Uarrisburg, Williamsport and Elmira are almost on the same meridian. By ma king a Railroad from Uarrisburg to El mira, where you connect with the New York and Erio Kaiiroad,,. we have perfect Railroad communication from Philadelphia and Baltimore to Lake Erie. Twenty five miles of the road between Williams port and Elmira are completed, leaving but one hundred and forty-five miles yet to be constructed. The value of this connec tion will be seen at a glance. It makes Elmira a point common to the routes from Dunkirk and Buffalo to the cities of New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore. The distance from Elmira to the city of New iorK is two nunared and eighty-three miles from Elmija, by the valley of tho ausquenanna, lo I'hiladelphia is two hun drcd and seventy-seven miles and from Elmira to Baltimore, is two hundred and fifty-six miles : by which vou will perceive .1 . Bk. ...... - . . mat i nnaaeipnia and ISaltimore are both nearer to Lake Lne bv this route, than ?sew lork! I hey are not onlv nearer th v wv . -1 . Lakes, but the route through Pennsylva nia nas tne advantage in grades the ele vation in no instance exceeding forty-five feet to the mile, and that only for a short distance at a single summit. For more than one hundred miles tho grade is under lour teet to tne mile. Un tho other hand. itie xew iorK and trie Railroad has all the d.fliculties of steep grades, short curva. tures and high bridges to encounter east of Elmira, and worse than all, a transhipment takes place at Piermonr from the Railroad cars to steamboats on the Hudson. Under these circumstances, sir, I cannot doubt for a moment, that this doubly important con nection between Uarrisburg and Elmira, will receive the immediate attention of cap italists in both Philadelphia and Baltimore, unless thev should be detered by unwise legislation. A stronger case illustrating (he necessrtv for this improvement could not perhaps be referred lo, than the fact that von have three senators on this floor: the Senator from Potter, (Mr. Ives.) the Scnalor from Tioga, (Mr. Gt tB.NsM.Jand I the Senator from Bradford, (Mr. Sakdkr. son,) residing on and Dear the line of the proposed road, who adopted as the best route of coming to the seat of government at the present session, the New York and Erie Railroad to the city of New York thence across the State o( New Jersey to Philadelphia, and from Philadelphia to Uarrisburg by the state Kaiiroad ; travel' ling in all more than 500 miles each. Now, sir, two of those Senators reside in the valley of the Susquehanna less than 150 miles from Uarrisburg, the other lives about 50 miles further off and yet they are now gravely asked to vote for a pro hibitory tax on an improvement leading up the Susquehanna ! This is the manner in which the Senator from Philadelphia pro poses to improve the North ! But, Mr. Speaker, the Sunbury and Erie railroad is the great improvement that Phil adelphia must resort to, at last, to secure the trade of the lakes. It is the route the Pennsylvania raihoad should have adopt edand Philadelphia will yet be driven to it in self-defence. In a speech in the Chinese Museum, in that city a few years since, I endeavored to impress upon the minds of her capitalists the importance of this measure, but was unsuccessiui. inn, sir, was the favorite project of the late Nicholas Riddle, of your city and what, ever mnv be said of him as a politician, or a financier, all agree, that on questions of internal improvement and commerce, he was one of the mostsagaeions and far see inj statesmen in this Union. His fault was. if fault it be, that he was twenty years in advance of the ase in which he lived Sir, his lowering mind, enabled him, afar off, to To tli tp of diUnt thonBhts, Wliirh turn of rooiinon glature ucver saw. Had he lived, and maintained the strong hold which he once had on the affections of Philadelphia, that city would long since have been placed in relation lo the trade I have attempted to describe, where New York and Boston now are. But, I am pleased to observe lhat your intelligent Board of Trade, sir. have at length turned their attention to this long neglected im provement : their views are those of en lightened wisdom, and I commend them to (he attention, not only of Senators, but of every business man in Philadelphia and Baltimore. In their last annual report they s'iy. " that it is time that we should look elsewhere than to the centre of (he Slate and to lines of central communication. From the mouth of the Juniata to the har bor of Erie, there is not one mile of railroad constructed; and ibis, though a population, according to the census of 1820, of up wards of 400-000 people is ihere to contri bute , by their industry and products, to our business prosperity. A railroad com munication from the head waters of the West Branch to the harbor of Erie is known lo be practicable. Surveys have Un made, and its probable cost ascertain ed. Philadelphia has too long turned her back on that wonderful region ; for won derful it is, at least in its mineral resour ces, with its inexhaustible and accessible masses of iron and biluminous coal, thro' which, by almost bridle paths, (for there are yet, loour shame be it spoken, wilder nesses in Pennsylvania.) the traveler pass es from the mouth of the Sinnemahoning to the head waters of (he Allegheny ftnd of the Lake ttrenms. Whilo New York is pushing forward its Erie railroad along our Lake shore, and through our neglect ed territory, we are contont to see not only north-western Pennsylvania, but all the intermediate territary, influenced by adverse policy to us, pass away to commer cial allegiance in another Slate. It is high time that oureyes should bo turned in this I d rection. It has ceased to be a question ol rival routes. And whenever those im provements north westward from the Sus quehanna shall be seriously begun, then tiking Sunbury and Catawissa as the points by which the river is uliima'ely reached Philadelphia, with its works ex tending north from Uarrisburg, and north westward from the head waters of the Schuylkill, may claim it all, beyond the reach of rivally." Mr. Speaker, the lumber trade, alone, of tho last year, on the West Branch of the Susquehanna, amounted in value to more than 51,000.000. The villageof Williams port, in which I reside, shipped by canal, over 16.000,000 of feet of lumber and this trade is but beginning. Give us a direct commnnication by railroad to Phila-j-.ii.- i . . uciuib ana uammore. Abandon the idea that I hiladephia will not be benefitted, un. leas her citizens can see the smoke of the locomotives, and hear the cars rumbling . I m ... O over ine market street bridge. Such is not a broad, liberal and statesmanlike policy ii is unworthy ol Thtlndclphia. Throw open all the avenues leading from the inte rior give our iron masters, our lumber men, our miners, and our farmer, the advantage of the best markets, wfierpvnr they are to be found. You will then. sir. see the wilderness of the West Branch dis- appear, her vallcvs will be made the panting of ihe engine and tho hum of industry and cnterprize ; you will see her 'floods clap their hands, and her mountains be joyful together." rt ffrii vnurris ix l uvra'j omci on tbi irraotca or truss.

Ingestion is chiefly performed in ihe atom- ach bv the aid uf a fluid which freely exudes from ihe inner co:t of that organ, when in a state of heal'b, called the gastric juice. This fluid is the great tulrent uf the find the purifying, preser ving and stimulating agent of the stomach and intestines. Without it there can be no digestion, no conversion of food into Mood, no nutrition but rather a foul, torpid, painful and destructive condition of the whole digestive apparatus. I?psln is the chief element or great digest ing principle of the gastric juice. It is found in great ahundanre in the solid parts ol the human stomach after death, and sometimes causes the stomach to digest nr eat itself up. It is also found in the stomach of animals, as the ox, calf, fee. It is the material used by farmers in making cheese si j ltd KeiiliCt, the etrect of which has long been the special wonder of the dairy. Curdling of milR is the first process of digestion. A call's stomach can curdle nearly one thousand limes its own weight of milk. 11-iron Liebig states, "one part of Pepsin di-solved in silly thousand parts of water, digests meat and other food." Diseased stomachs produce no good Gastric Juice, Rennet j r Pepsin. To show that this want may be per fectly supplied, we quote the subjoined s:i i:ti rid i:viim:c n Paron LI t'AlU i. in hi relehratf-d work on Animal Che mistry, says: -An arlitieial digestive Ituid, analagous to theiJastrir Jnicc.uiav 1- readily prepared from the mueou ao ml.raiie of the sl'uuiai h of the calf, in which various articles of f.l. as meat aud eggs, will lie softened and digested in the same uiauner a in the tinman svimacn.
