amendment of the House to the BILL Ia that offered by

cases Of necessity.
An interesting discussion occurred in the House to-
day the important bill authorship the several rail
roads of this State carry freight during the entire
year. 1t is probable that such bill will pass the pre-
sent Legislature 1t may affect the revenue of the
nails but without doubt the facilities for transportation
will be materially improved. In like that now ex-
listing, the New York markets will not be utterly bare
and the agricultural wealth Of the western farmers will
be easily converted into the essentaities OF civi
zation The Of the State will also experience
sensible improvement and the convenience of the cti-
7ens the line of railroad and in the interior will be
promoted The design it, therefore, wise. At the re-
