Ap proved, Feb. 29,1870. v ., HARRISBURG LETTER. • - HARRiSpIIRG, March 17, 1870. Agitator :—`Bic transit, gloria mundi.' l All of us who were opposed to the new county, as proposed by Peter Herdic i can now breathe freely, for the presen session, at least, as the attempt is for the presebt abandoned. After a careful canvass of the House and *nate, it was believed that if the local ineM bers stood firm In their opposition, a sufficient ntmber of the others could not be se en ed for its passage; consequently the subject is indefinitely postponed, and will not rise again "to shake its gory lolcs before us.", "Requiescat in pace." .such an amount of legislation as is being daily t introduced, should be one of the seven wonders of the world ; and I verily belieVe that unless a day is soon agreed upon for the final adjournment, there will business enough accumulate to reach far into the summer. I have believed,.and am daily strengthened in that belief, that all ,local legislation should be done through our courts, and only laws and acts of a general Charac ter be subjects of State: legislation. It would be a great saving to the State.— And then all persons could act upon the local measures, and consult Ibegreatest interest of the community. The calen dar already numbers 1600, and bids fair to exceed that of last winter, which would seem needless. The bill that I spoke of in a former letter, enlarging the jurisdiction of Jus tice§ of the Peace in Tioga county, has become a law. * * *, There is another measure before) the Legislature, which now bids fair to go through, and which will he of incalcu lable value to the people of Tiega coon.ty, and the other northern and western ~counties of the State. It i~ a bill pro posing to change the bonds or securities that the State now holds against the Pennsylvania and Alleghany Valley railroads, from those roads to the ti iw ' ones proposed to be built, as now char, tered; to wit: the sum of $6,000,100, f or the Jersey Shore and l'ine Creeak road, and the sum or $3,500,000 for three other roads in the northwestern part of the State. The advocates of this measure propose to use these bonds, now held by the Slate as a sinking fund, for the con struction of these roads, and give the State in return bonds and mortgages upon the new roads, at the same rate of interest, and payable about the same time as the present bods : the Penn sylvania IN.Torthern •Cenral and ? Phila delphia and Erie railroads guaranteeing to the State the payment of the interest, and the construction of the new roads within three years i and then the State takes, in lieu of the bonds it now holds, a first mortgage upon the new lines and equipments and all appurtenances there unto bonging. It is claimed that the securit,'will be just as good, if not bet ter to the State, than now; while at the same time it helps to open up that por tion of the State which has never yet received a dollar of State aid, while oth er portions havebecome rich and • 'pros perous through the 'generosity of the Commonwealth. • . Under these auspices, the Jersey Shore and Pine Creek Railroad will be built and completed, to connect with the Buffalo and Washington road at port Alleghany, in three years from this time ;—and all that vast region, hnd hitherto howling wilderness, with its hidden wealth of coal and iron, will be l?pened up to pour its untold wealth into the lap of all nations and ages yet to come. Villages and hamlets will spring up, as if by magic, and the hill sides and valleys will ring and echo with the bum of industry ; and what has heretofore been an untrodden wil derness, shall blossom as the rose. ()th en improvements will spring up in its wake,—and ere long the shrill whistle ethe engine will be Award on every hill-top of Tioga county. It will then follow, as a necessity, that a road shohld be built along the Cowanesque vane); and down Lung Run, to intersect this road on Pine creek—thereby tapping the two . great thoroughfares of N. York and Pennsylvania. " God speed the day," is the prayer of your humble servant. We have Justexperienced the most terrible snow storm of the season—it falling in such a body, as.to break down fruikkrees and shrubbery, and almost vi katling the travel while at Phila delphia and south of us v there was no snow at all, but a heavy rain, swelling the creeks and rivers above their banks.

The house and its contents were destroyed, and Maguire was burned to death. The woman has not been arrested. We publish this week a local, bill, re ferred to in Mr. Niles's letter last week, Which is of very . considerable impor tance. It is intended to have those pet ty matters Which now consume much of the 'ime of our courts, decided in the neighborhood of the transactions, by a Justice and jury. We believe this law is copied from laws which pave been in force for some time in other counties.— Its provisions have been tested-by prac tice, and its meaning probably settled by adjudication It is quite an innova tion ; but we are confident that the principle of the law is a good one, and that it will grow in favor as it becomes better 'known. The 'United States. Supreme Court has decided that a soldier who volun teered under the President's call for troops in the early part of 1861 is enti tled to the $lOO bounty offered for three years men, even though discharged for disability before serving two years. Heretofore this bounty has only been paid to those who served at least two years, and those discharged for- •ounds. This division will give bounty to a large number of soldiers who were honorably discharged before the expiration of their terms of enlistment, without any fault on their part., ',lt should neyer have been denied in any such case. The'friends of ' n. Wm. I. Kelley of Philadelphia, ave joined in a re quest for him to accept a renomination to Congress. Judge Kelley is now ser ving his fifth term, and yet it seems his cons ituents are unwilling to allow him to r tire to private life. In his re ply ,hei, makes his acceptance condi tional, demanding that he be released from the burdensome letters and ap peals of office seekers. He says the de mands upqn his time in such matters is so great, flint 11,., 1.-.. 1.L4.4.1.- - -„,........,...., left for social intercourse or study at. home. The remedy for all this is a civil service syStem. Judge Kelley is an able representative, and his knowledge of financial and in dustrial affairs places him among those few men in Congress, who cannot well be spared in these times. Fora long time mitice was published in TirrE AGITATOR of the filing of the Land Lien Docket in the office of the Prothon otary, wherein are entered the liens for balance of purchase money and costs due the commonwealth, Against unpatented lande. On the 6th of May next the AttorneSr General may com mence suits for all such claims remain ing unpaid, and it behooves all persons owning lands in the county, to look to this matter at once, unless their have other means of knowing that their ti tles are secure. We fear that great hardships may fall upon innocent purchasers in many cases, if this la* is carried info effect; and we believe that wherever the State has slept upon its rights so long that such lands have passed into the hands of innocent purchasers, it would t he cruel wrong in many cases ( to enforce the law. Many warrants are, so old and the landmarks so uncertain, that the Sur veyor General found very great difficulty in locating them, and fixing the lines upon the proper subject-matter. The changes in the mines of townships, counties and streams are also'calculated to mislead the owners. 'The State should have its purchase-money ; but eve means resorted to to compel the pay ment of this money, should reserve to the actual owners, the right to redeem by payment of the purchase money and costs, within a reasonable time after actual notice ; and it ill becomes a great State to enforce the payment of interest after the commonwealth has slept so long upon its rights as it has, we are assured, in many cases. Jersey Shore ) Pine Creek & Buffalo R. II We clip from The Day . the following synopsis and notice of the law pending in our Legislature, referred to last week. It has already passed the Senate, and was on the third reading in the House the last we heard of it. Ther i e can be no doubt now of its passage ; and the gen eral belief - is that the road will be built in good part next ;/ear. The rights of the State are secured by the terms of this bill; but even if it Were a donation, the' benefits would more than make up the amount loaned. Mr. Olmsted introduced an act to facilitate . the constructio n uf a railroad between the Susque hanna and the great lakes and Canada. The bill provides that the Jersey Shore, Pine Creek and Buffalo Railroad shall issue fiqt mort gage bonds to the amount of $0,000,000, paying five per cent. interest, which shall be deposited in the sinking fund of tim State, and applied only to payment of_ the public debt.• In consid eration of this deposit, the company 'is to have the use of anAutil amount of bonds belonging to the-PennsYlvin . la Railroad Company., now in the State Treasury: • In order to secure the State from any lota, it iS provided that the new bonds shall bo payable at the same time and in the same amounts, and shall bear exactly the same interest, as those be longing to the Pennsylvania Railroad Company. Neither shall any exchange of bonds take place until a contract shall bo made for the construc tion and equipment of the new road within three years, and this contract shall bo absolutely guar anteed by either the Catawissa and Philadelphia and Reading, the Catawissa and Lehigh Valley, the Lehigh and Susquehanna, or the Philadel phia and Erie,Northern Central and Pennsylva nia Central roads, which guaranty shall extend not only to tho payment of the principal, but to the payment of $300,000 per annum interest mo ney to the State, and the franchises and roads of the party making the guaranty shall be liable • - The road shall furnish the most direct and°l4 " te zt route km Buffalo and Western Can ada. to Philadeiphia. THE „FUNDING BILL. - In another column we published an , abstract of the Funding Bill which passed the 13ennte last week., It is said to be eee. elkhlble_to , t il e.. F t r,esittetir , lord his cabinet, and , is vely likely to 6e passed by.the House wit boat' any very important changes. It has been - very fully discussed in the.. Senate, and the press of Bit, whole country. TO that part Of this bill which. pro poses 'to ftmdtkedebt,„o - ,4, 4k,, and '4 percentum, .runing.lo, 15, and 20 years respectively, $400,000,000, of each kind, and all due andklPaYable at forty years, there carv.be no objection worthy of consideration. The Press objects that the option of.payment is too long. The first $400,000,000, may .be paid any time after ten years, which makes the priv ilege of payment or nonpayment run 80 years, the second 25 years, and the third 20. Years. We see no force in this objection: The government should not deprive itself of the privilege of paying the debt as fast as it may be able to do so, without crippling the buthriess interests of the country. The question of _early or later payment of the debt,_is one of policy and expedi ency : the privilege of paying it at any rime when weritay, and thereby save interest, is a right which we should pot legislate away—Certainly not at this I time. , A national debt may be a, na tional blessing; but it is a blessing which each generation has an inalien able right to accept or reject for itself. Under this bill there will be 5400,000,000 of the debt which cannot be paid till the lapse of 20 years, however much we may desire to pay it, unless we break faith with our creditors. That we can not afford to do. We have already had enough of that kind of repudiation. Not only this, but it is beyond the prescience of the most profound econo mist, to 7 say what rate of interest such securities may be negotiated for, at the end of 30 years. In the mean time, the production of the precious metals max so increase as to cheapen the standard of value so much, that the rates we now propose to pay may be greatly exor bitant. Progress is so swift in the de , velopment of the mineral and material resources of all countries, that it is im possible to foresee the situation of af fairs, after the lapse of a generation. The other provisions of this law, re quiring the National Banks to subeti tpte these bonds, for those now on de insit, as a security for their, circulation, at a lower rate of Interest than that they -now receive, and allowing other Na tional Banks to be organized with cap ital of not less than $50,000 in any case, on deposit of such bonds, purchased by outstanding notes (we suppose "green backs") of the United States, are more obscure and uncertain in their opera tion and probable effect; still they seem acceptable to the banks and the gov ernment, and we do not perceive how they can be detrimental to the interests . of the people. So fast as new banks shall be organized and their notes issued, the legal tenders are to be withdrawn from circulation ; so that there shall be no increase of currency further than the demands for it shall prompt capitalists to invest in this business. We firmly believe that this matter will regulate a free banking law, with absolute se curity for the note holders. If the demand for currency increase, it will be supplied by capital, wherever and when ever capital prevails. Of course the government will lose the interest on 1 the notes withdrawn, s it will be re quired to pay inters on the bonds which shall be issued for such notes. This Is a feature of th Obill which re ,quires reflection; yet these notes have 'all along heen in the nature of a forced loan, payable at no particular time, and without interest, and in as much as the necessity which compelled us to resort to such,)rneasures, has passed away, it should seem thatthe government should either redeem these notes in specie, when such payments are resumed, or pay interest to the holders. Certain it is, that the withdrawal of llhese notes froin circulation must speedily bring resumption of coin payments. pTARTLING DISCLOSURES NEXT WEEK., Wanied, 31000 CORDS hemlock hark, -at the Tioga tannery.
