sUNBURY AND ERIE RAIL RoAp

The city Of Erie has subscribed $780,
900 10 the Sunbury and Erie Rail Road
Erie county will, no doubt, also subscribe
literally. Lock Haven, by an almost
unanimous vote, has agreed TO subscribe
$4,000, and recommends a subscription
Of 100000 by Clinton county. From
thence on the whole route to Erie, every
County will subscribe most literally, as
every dollars worth of real estate, will be
enhanced fully one hundred per cent in
value. Lycoming county, will no doubt
also subscribe liberal sum. Northumber-
land county also feels deep interest in
this great enterprise, but our citizens are
more directly interested, at present, in the
early completion Of the Rail Roads to
Harrisburg and Pottsville, both of which
are, in fact, extensions of The Erie Road,
and must and will be made before the Erie
Road is completed.

NORTH BRANCH CANAL.

When at Northumberland a few days
since, we observed call for a meeting, to
be held at the Town Hall, on Friday even
ing, 10 adopt measures for the speedy COM
pletion of the North Branch Canal. We
look upon the early completion of this i'm
provement as most important measure,
and one that has been mos, grossly neglect
ed by the legislature. For the interest,
and for the character of Pennsylvania, we
trust the whole line will be completed
without further delay. We have no local
feelings or interests in this matter, but the
State has deep interest in its prompt and
early completion.

NEW BILL FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF
rae ruBLsB WORKS.

TIE ftBIsB WORKS.
Senator Muhlenberg, Of Berks county,
has introduced bill for the future manage
ment OF our public works. 1t is a most i'm
portant measure, and would, if properly
carried into effect be the means of saving
to the Commonwealth an immense sum of
money. We have lcng thought that some
other node Of managing the public works
should be adopted, and il possible, place it
beyond the reach of politics. The patron
age of the public works is now far greater
than that Of the Governor. The following
is short summary of the bill introduced
by Mr.. Muhleuberg.
The first section provides for the election
OF Secretary Of Internal improvements, at
the next Fall election.
The second section regulates the details of
the election.
The third section fixes the term Of Office
at three years, from the second Tuesday in
February next, and makes the salary s2500
per annum.
The fourth section provides that the Secre-
tary shall be removed for misdemeanor in
office, on the address Of majority Of each
House, and declares that any vacancy shall
be filed by appointment by the Government,
confirmed by the Senate, until the next Cen
eral Election.
The fifth section provides that the Secreta.
ry shall have Inc entire management, of the
public works.
The seventh section provide. that the Gov
crnor shall appoint Civi! Engineer for three
years, subject 10 The confirmation of the Sen.
ate, as Chief Engineer of the Public Works,
at salary of $4,000 per annum.
The ninth section provides for the appoint.
nen, by the Secretary, Of principal clerk,
a, salary of $500 per annun,, and defines
his duties.
The tenth section provides for the appoint.
ment by the Secretary OF Revenue Clerk,
a, like salary, whose especial duty shall be
the consideration and arrangement, Of tolls,
and defines his other duties.
The eleventh section obliges every incor.
poraled company 10 furnish copies OF their
rates OF toll for the ensuing year.
The twelfth section provides for the pro.
per examination Of all vouchers and bills !;
requires monthly reports from each supern-
tendent and supervisor.
The twentieth section abolish-s the pre-.
sent Board of Canal Commissioners, 80 soon
as the Secretary is installed in office, and
provides that Canal Commissioner shall not
be elected next fall.

The tariff will again be brought forward
with certain judcious amendments proposed
by Senator James, OF Rhode Island, zuch as
do not conflict, either with the ad rdlorem
principle of the tariff Of 1916, or with the
Democratic principles of taxing luxuries and
removing The duties on necessares. The
subject is now seriously mooted in the Com

strong probability that we shall have re-

matey before the House.

The reception of the Spanish Consul at
New Orleans, few days since, on his re-
turn to that city, was any thing but flatter-

the rowdies and filIbusters from making an

and escaped in his carriage. THE whole

GEN, ScorT-- An OFFER DEcLNEp.-The
New Orleans Delta is responsible for a story
which it tells of General Scott, who, when
in the city of Mexico, after its caplnre, was
offered by several OF the weahiest citizens
OF the Mexican republic TO be made PTesi-
den, of that country; and, as an inducemenl
to the offer, they bound themselves 10 settle
uron him the sum OF one million Of dollaIs.
The Delta says:
"The splendid offer was declined by the
General, with scarcely a moments consider
alton. The brave old soldier could no, be
tempted by such inducements TO abandon
the flag under which he had achieved so
much renown and honor"
This is the first inIimation which has
ever been given Of such an offer. The
story requires some other endorsement of
It's truth.
