be well to leftest oar readers that its entire leitgth, from

They will rim isle bends that will be able to terry them

"With the eompletion of the Philadelphia and Lak• Erie
Railroad, a new day will dawn upon the commercial pros
perity of Philadelphia. A large portion of the trade of the
Lakes, and the easy growing region beyond them, will be
arrested at Erie, to seek the shorter and better route to the
seaboard. Erie will at onee take a start, and will soon

natural advantages, have hitherto been more highly fa

and that hitherto neglected territory will begin to teem
with a busy, thriving population. It is impossible 14 over

In the tacos tone is an article in the P nen from which
we attract this paragraph:—
"To the city of Philadelphia the pretest disposition or

Mr. English's bill is still under consideration
of the Senate's conferink committee with a fair
prospect of an ultimate agreement Many boa.
eider this already certain Messrs. Seward and

were this afternoon and are to-night mach inter
ested of privately discussing the measure, of the
snecess of which no definite notion can be formed.
It is probable the conferring committees will re

• New Yam, April 21.
Mr. English's bill was offend to the miller.
ence committee yesterday. The majority ac.
cepted it without hesitation, and when Mr. ['aw
ard appealed to English to allow bias to insert a
short amendment providing for the submission
of the Leavenworth Constitution- at the same
time, he declined. English then proposed to
report immediately, but Seward asked for an
adjournment till tomorrow in order to have time
for consultation.
The majority consented to only two hours
delay, and the matter was accordingly postponed
till two o'olook.
At the appointed hoar Messrs. Howard and
Seward attended, but no other . member of the
committee was present, and after waiting some
time, they retired.
It is rumored that in the meastime several
southern members of the Holm, including
Quitman, Miles, eta., had signified their dissent
from the irraogiment, and that Hunter and
others of the senate had done the" same thing,
hence the son attendance of the committee at 2
o'clock.
114tBRISBURG, April 19, 1858
The bill fur the sale of the State Canals hav
ing passed the Legislature, and the necessary
public business beinig nearly finished, there is no
longer reason to doubt that the Legislature will
adjourn on the 22d inst. There are many pri
vate and public bills on the calendar which have,
not been dispoSed of; but this would be the ease
if the session lasted,* month longer. Sills ac•
cumulate until the very end orthe session.
The Governor hesitated about signing the Sun•
bury and Erie bill, on account of the outlet lock
at NortliuMberland being attached to the North
Branch, in the provision providing for the sale
of that division to residents thereon. This ob
jection was removed by a supplement which wee
put through both Houses this afternoon in a half
an hour after they met. This objection being rd
moved, no doubt the Geveroor will sign the
bill at once, as it was understood from the begin
ingithat, be favored the measure. If the effect of
this bill will be to secure the completion of the
Sunbury and Eric Railroad, the importance of
the object may perhaps mon. than oompensitte
for any immediate pecuniary loss sustained by
the State from inadequacy of price.

honors of the evening were universally conceded

promptly aeoepted, requiring a subscription of
half a minims of dollars, to aid the Allegheny

the early completion of the latter road, which
will then form a link in a new route to Philadel

now proposed to open up. A Senator had sneer

turned this view of the ease into an argument for

this road will give it to maks it populous and

it was time to correct it.
