In my last letter but one, I referred to the bill then pending before the Legislature, authorizing the Pennsylvania Railroad Co.", to' construct a branch road from West Philadelphia to the Delaware front. The President of the Company had been requested by the Board to procure legis lation for this purpose, without specifying at what point an the Dtlaxcare the road should . terminate. It will be recollected that League Island is on the Delaware, below Greenwich Point. The owners of League Island had offered the Pennsylvania Railroad Company ten acres for nothing, which they afterwards increased to twenty acres, provided they would make the terminus on that Island: This offer was of great value to the Compa ny, whether accepted or not, because it pro duced competition and would prevent extor tionate prices. Every business man must be aware of this. For myself, I ftflt obliged to the League Island owners for their generous offer, although I told them that I 'thought it was inexpedient at the present time to make a branch road. But if it should be decided by the Committee and the Board, and confirmed by the stockhol ders to le expedient at the present time to make a branch road, so far as it could influ ence the judgement of others, they should Imvc fair play, I had never seen the Island, and therefore could not judge. I presume our friend Gratz, President of the Company, owning the island, will so testify. . I was fully aware of the tendency to Greenwich Point, and I pledged myself to show our League Is land friends fair play. But what was my surprise when I found that an amendment had been introduced by Price in the Senate, and actually passed that body, confining the terminus of the road to a location north oj Greenwich Point and south of the Navy Yard. Thnq cutting off League Island, below Oreen Tineh Point, and Washington street north of ho Naw Yard. Now. who was the author f that, amendment? Would any Senator offer such an amendment without consulting the person who was urging the passage of the . h ? We have seen it stated by the Presi dent of the Greenwich Improvement Compa- .,t," tV. r.f. have been unsuccessful in our attempts to discover the author of this interpo Intlrm. " What acompliment to E. K Price! What is an interpolation 1 "The act of foisting a word or passage into a manuscript or book." Webster. And what is the definition of foist t "To insert surreptitiously, wrongfully, or without warrant." Have they applied to Eli K. Price for the desired information! Ine moment .nnr the, amendment to cut out my friends of : Tan-iie Island. I wrote the letter referred to, the last but one, to endeavor to prevent this iniustice to them. A number of the papers containing my letter were sent to Harrisburg A Committee of Conference had been aptoin ted bv the two Houses relative to this amend xnent, so determined was the Senate to retain it It was. however, stricken out, and the bill massed as originally reported, leaving the Company to select the place for their Depot south of the Navy Yard. Thus at least the sum of one hundred thousand dollars was sa- red to the Pennsylvania nauroaa company. And although my old tnend, c. apangier, savs there was no doubt about my unfitness fnr thff office of Director, still, if my efforts have contributed in any way to save this large amount to the Company, he ought to give me some credit for it. Besides, they, it seems, felt indignant at the interpolation, and if it can be shown that I used my efforts to have it stricken out of the bill, it would appear thai I was aiding them to accomplish a desirable object. Then why denounce me I am happy to announce to the stockholders, that the cunningly devised bill was also de feated, which enacted that the P. R. Road was defeated according to the meaning of a certain section of the charter. In using my efforts to defeat this bill, I think I have done some service to the company. As the charter now stands, it requies that all the surplus - funds, after paying 6 per cent, to the stock holders, shall be carried to the cost of construc tion, until the road sliall be completed. Not completed by enacting that it is completed, but actually completed. The grand object of the Board should be, to turn neither to the right hand nor the left until the second track 6bali be completed. This year may accom plish it, if the funds should not be diverted to other objects. There is a wise provision of the charter, which declares, that not more than 15 per cent, of the capital stock shall be subscribed or guaranteed to railroad compa nies in other States. This limit has been reached, and the stockholders should guard with jealous care, that the provision shall not be violated. During the last week, whilst my attention was directed to more interesting matters, an article went the round of the newspapers headed Reply to William Heal, Pennsylvania Railroad, and addressed to you, whose names the author was surprised to find attacJied to the call. This article is signed by C L. Spangler, President of the Greenwich Im provement Company." Of course this Reply must be the act of this Company, as it is signed . by the President, unless there is another jpofa tion. I presume that C. E. Spangler under stood the document to which be has subscn bed his name, and which he had endorsed. It is understood that he is a director at the same time, of the Pennsvlvania Railroad Com' pany, although he omits to say so. Now, what have I to do with the " Greenwich Im provement Company 4 I am neither a direc - tor nor a stockholder of this company. And what has this company to do with the affairs of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company ? ' Has the latter company called upon the other to espouse its cause, and enter the arena against Wm. Neal? Is there, then, so close a connection between the two companies ? The document, then, is to be understood as emanating from the "Greenwich Improve xnent Company." In my next letter, I wil proceed to examine it. irerm'.t me, in con clusion, to say that inasmuch as a gross out rage was committed upon the stockholders as well as myself, at the election for Directors and not knowing the cause thereof, you in quired of me to Btate my knowledge -of them -1 have simply detailed some of the measures abut which I differed trom my colleagues 1 did not intend to use disrespectful language to any one. I have not called any ot my late colleagues tools of . any . members of the Board, as stated in the precious document alf luded to. My sola object has been to show the stockholders the course I pursued whilst a member of the Board, so that they could judge whether I was right or wrong, and of my fitness for a Director of their i;omany, without referring that question to the Green wich Improvement Company."

FOR PRESIDENT, JAMES BUCHANAN. Subject to the Decision of the National Convention. Canal Commissioner: GEORGE SCOTT, (OF COLUMBIA COUNTY.) Auditor General: JACOB FRY, JR., (OF . MOXTGOMEKY COUNTY.) Surveyor General: TIMOTHY IVES, (OF POTTER COUNTY.) New Advertisements. We call attention to the new advertisements in this week's paper. Owing to their num ber, the list of Sheriff's sales, court notices &c. , much original matter has been crowded out, for which we must ask the indulgence of our readers for a short time. Discontinued. The Post Office at Ash land in this county has been discontinued. The West Chester Republican and Demo crat, has a very strong and well written edi torial advocating the nomination of Mr. Bu chanan for the Presidency. Amongst other things equally truthful and pointed, the edi tor says : The State of Pennsylvania never lacks in receiving her modicum ot flattery. he is reckoned at every political crisis a most ex cellent pack-horse, and we are very pleasant ly told of our patriotism and devotion to prin ciple, but when we come to ask for a substan tial, return of our political virtures in the way of a nomination of one of our own sons our request is very generally set aside, and we are cooly informed that the time has not yet arrived- Now we profess to have some little State pride ; but we ask the nomination at this time, not simply because Mr. Buchan an is "to the manor born," but because he is the most experienced statesman, and the most avaifoUe candidate before the people for the next Presidency. At this particular period he is fortunate enough to have availiluity far above his fellows, and that is a great deal in these days. The disjointed and fragmentary opposition have adopted a line of policy which is now perfectly apparent. The nomination of Mr. Fillmore simply amounts to nothing. Most likely his name will be withdrawn when he returns from Europe. No nominations will be made by the Know-Nothings and sham Republicans until after our candidate is an nounced. If that candidate proves to be Mr. Buchanan, they will find it utterly impossible to unite their forces against him, because it is well known that a large body of men pre viously acting with the old Whig party would be satisfied to vote for hira entirely on bis conservative antecedents. If, however, we take up a weak man, unpopular with his own party, the opposition elements can much more easily combine, and it is clearly their inten tion to make the strongest efforts to do so. IIow imperative, then, the obligation on the Democracy, - 60on to assemble in -.National Convention, to give us the man for the occa sion. Availability without capacity for the high and distinguished office of President of the United States we should be ashamed to advocate, but where it is coupled with great governmental experience and high intellectual attainments, it should not be overlooked. Governor Pollock. The Governor is still absent from Harrisburg, and how long he may remain at his home in Milton Northumber land county is uncertain. He has not yet signed the General Appropriation bill, the claim bill, the bill relative to libels, or the supplement to the bill consolidating the city of Philadelphia. These are all important bills, and such as demanded instant action im mediately upon their passage by the legisla ture. The public creditors of the common wealth, we suppose will however, have to pa tiently suffer, and wait until his Excellency sees proper to release them from his breeches pocket. It is hoped that as the Philadelphia election is now over they will soon be brought to light, and that the tricks of the "Know- Nothings" will be fully slposcd, as they have failed in their expectation of "galling the people." ' : ". . . Glorious Xewi! PHILADELPHIA REDEEMED ! Just as our paper was going to press, i we received a dispatch that the "election for muni cipal officers in Philadelphia, held yesterday had resulted in the total rout of the Know- Nothings, and the election of the whole Dem ocratic ticket by a majority of about five thousand ! This is glory enough forgone day. After years of misgovernment, misrule, indebted ness, and waste of their finances, under which Philadelphians have suffered, they have at last thrown off the yoke, and freed themselves from the degrading incubus of Know-Noth-ingism. With a Democratic Mayor and oth er Municipal officers, the character of Phila delphia will not be disgraced as heretofore, nor her own illustrious sons or those of the State, insulted by the exhibition of petty mal ice and spite on the part of her authorities. This is the first gun from Pennsylvania in this campaign, and may be given as an evi dence of what may be expected from the Old Keystone" in the event of the nomina tion of James Buchanan, at Cincinnati. Ilis majority would be fifty thousand. Amendments to the Libel Law. The following important bill was passed at the late Session of the Legislature. A mea sure of this kind has long been needed, and freedom of the press will now be placed upon a footing more in accordance with the spirit of the age. The old English law of libel is shorn of its terrors, and the maxim " the greater the the truth the greater the libel," will no lon ger govern our courts and juries, when the publication is made for "public information." Section 1. Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the Common wealth of Pennsylvania in General Assembly met, and it is hereby enacted by authority of the same, That from and after the passage of this act, on the trial of indictments for wri ting or publishing a libel, the truth of the matter charged as libelous may be given in evidence, and if the jury in any such case shall find that the same was written or publish ed properly for public information, and the act was induced by good motives and with no malicious intent, and that the matter so charg ed is true, it shall operate to the acquittal of defendant or defendants. Section 2. That in actions for damages for the writing or publishing a libel, where the truth is pleaded and given in evidence, if it be found that the same was written or pub lished properly for public information, and with no mischevious or malicious motives, the jury may find for the defendant or defendants. Mr. Bcciianan.- The Pittsburg Post in alludiDg to the nomination of this gentleman says : Desperate are the efforts of the K. s and ' Republicans now, to prevent the N nomination of Mr. Buchanan by the Cincinnati Convention. His nomination would destroy those last shadows of a chance for the opposition. But they are very poor politi cians indeed, if they do not see that this be trayal of their fears of Mr. Buchanan docs but add strength to his claims, and encour ages his friends. It is an admission of his popularity with the masses of the people, and of the certainty of his election if nominated. And we think now that his nomination is al most assured. State after State pronounces for him in unequivocal terms, and from all parts of the Union come the opinions of the Press, thrt no other candidate could, at the present time, poll so large a vote as the Great Pennsylvanian. Lost Omildren. The two little children of Mr. Cox of Bedford county whom w noticed ast week as having been lost some place upon the mountain, we regret to learn have not yet been found. After the news reached this place, a meeting of our citizens was held in the Court house, and arrangements made by which a number of them subsequent! v. left town, and aided in the search. Most of them have since returned 'home, but without any tidings as yet of the lost children. A great number of citizens from Bedford and Blair counties we understand, are still engaged in searching for them. rr T ir m . .ihe .kcsuit xsi luicHiaArr. io give our readers some idea of the extent of the recent Democratic victory in Michigan, we give be- low, as far as heard from, the result of the township elections for supervisors : Democrats 353 183 12 4 Black Republicans Whigs Know Nothings The Democratic majority in the State will be at least eight thousand. ;Dmocratic Victories.

Thousands of Whigs who voted the Know Nothing ticket last August, are now utterly disgusted with the party, and will work with a will at the next electien to secure its defeat. Within the last five months such changes have been going on as to leave not the slightest doubt as to what will be the po sition of our noble State in the next contest." Husband and Wife The Legislature of Georgia has passed an act to define the liabil ities of the husband for the debts of the wife, and to define the liabilities of property received through the wife for the debts of the husband existing at the time of the marriage. It pro vides that " hereafter, when persons inter marry, the husband shall not be liable for the debts of the wife further than the property received through the wife will satisfy, and that the property received by the husband through the wife shall in no case be liable for the debts, defaults, or contracts of the husband existing at the time of the marriage."' Sev eral other States have looked into and secured woman's rights in this important particular. Black Republican Sayings. "Sbarpe's rifles are better than Bibles," says the lveverend lienry Ward Ueecber. The constitution is a reproach and a league with Topher" says Garrison. The " Union is not worth supporting in connection with the South," say the disciples of the Tribune school. Let the Union slide, says Mr. Speaker Banks. In the language of a contemporary. theso black republican sayings should be passed round until the " fathers have to father and support their offspring." Libel suit. A somewhat singular case of libel is in course of trial, atMorristown, N. J., the parties being a young lady named Dun can, and a young gentleman named Rathbone. The defendant, Rathbone, and two of his com panions, took a chemise belonging to the young lady, from ihe clothes line, where it was hanging, and after making some marks on it, publicly returned it to the owner in. the shape of a parcel. The charge to the jury has not yet been delivered. A Hint to tiie Ladies. Recently one of the most renowned French pulpit orators, the Abbe de Deguerry, observed, in a sermon.
