than any other hitherte discovered. We
are aware that a greationtcry, has been in
sidiously raised about the number and
magnitude of the inclined planes on this
rail road. But what fisendation all this
clamor has is shown bfr the fact that these
planes were in operation during aconsid
erable portion of last season and have . ixten
duringthe whole of thepresentseason,in the
transportation efimaldilurnber from the Gi-

Well as if the whole road were constructed
to overcome the saMe elevation by a regu

' crease of distance, and in the opinion of
competent judges, algreat detil better. it
is idle therefore to dasert that the inclined
planes -will prove a s erious obstacle in the
transportation business, when facts — not ,
theory—have demenstrated the falsity of
the proposition. -e art requested by'
our correspondent o enter into- a minute
statement of the a ount of the rarities pro. '
ducts of the soil, t mine, and the forest,
which will find a channel to the market of
the metropOlis by this rail road, together
with its advantages as a channel for the
transportation of Merchandise. The most
ample details have already been given on
these subjecti, a n d it is-in 'vain if they are
not already unqrstood, to recapitulate
them. Whcr-ever raised a doubt as to the
amount of produce of one kind or another
that must take this channel to market, in
the event of its completion. We answer
mihesitatingly—no orie—at all acquainted
with the character of the country through
which the road passes,
and with which it
will be connected.. Our New York neigh
bors perfectly understand this matter.—
They are now preparing to drain the sour
ces of the - products of the latter, and Wilt
shortly carry their views even to this re.

We are .told by our correspondent that the
opposition urge that the , Councils, if 'they
grant any assistance new, will be called
upon hereafter to assist in making the Port
Clinton and Pottsville fink. This; is an

Be assured that the stock of this part of
1
the road will berm dreg -in the. market.
We shall see himdreds ready to subscribe.
Upon the whole, tlexigtthis great i work

ged in revising the "emit CoJe" of the state, and

late assessment. A strong disposition appears to
prevail not to touch any. slew. bills—and a resole'_

. On Saturday last, Mr. Rom, of Philadelphia,
offered the tolloWing resolotirorin the legislature
of this state. We arc pleased to find, that the
subject, Which we have so frequently adverted to,
is attracting attention in the proper quarter.
Resolved, That the Cimal Commissionets be
