PHILADELPHIA AND BALTIMORE.

The Harrisburg correspondents Of the
Philadelphia papers are very much alarm
ed at the bills now before the Legislature
authorising the York and Cumberland Road
to connect with the Pennsylvania Rail
Road, and another bill granting charter
to road which will connect New York
with a road through Schuy!kill and Dau-
pbin counties, with the Pennsylvania Road
above Harrisburg. They contend that Bal
timore is nearer Harrisburg than Philadel-
phia, and the tolls and freight are lower,
and are now urging the Legislature to re-
duce the tolls on the Columbia Road SC
that they can compete with the Baltimore.
ans. These connections will be no doub1
made. ..t.. .
These things were all laid before oul
Philadelphia friends when We urged then
to complete the Sunbury and Erie Road
which would have given them the vas
Lake trade, as well as the Pittsburg trade
without the least fear OF rivalry from any
quarter.
