PENNSYLVANIA appears to be a perpetual victim oil
the intripues and conspirdcies OF outside specula-
tors wbo persist in running railroads across her ter
rtery and thus bringing markets and means Of trans
rortstion to the very doors of her people without
cost 10 them. Hear the following outburst of alarm
srd INDIGNATION from the Philadelphia North Aneri-
con:
"P,rro,p FRArp-The Conneautville Pa B1.aer,

public meeting of citizens of that County, IL ret3rence

ut ~ owe h bl detrimental to Pennsy interests
This, We believe is either the third or the fourth
Railroad spirscy against the peace AMI dignity of
the Keystone State. The first that of the Ere
Road, whereby her whole northern tier of cOsn'ies
was at least doubled in value being furnished with
out the cost ri,k OF dime to its people, with
chtop and expeditions road TO market and even ena-
bled to reach Phil phia in about hafthe time pre-
yiously required. That Road is honestly worth to
Pennsylvania at least Half Million per annum
yet i.s Iublicspirited, unf rtunate stockholders,
after paying roundly for every foot of Penny
sell and rock they trayersed, fined $4,000 a
year in perpetuty Tor the crime Of letting daylight
no Ler secluded Northern Counties. The next
attempt, we believe, made by the Baltimore and
Ohio Company; but This nearious attempt to make a
c1mu Odous ghv ay tbI ou4b secluded part Of South
western Penus lyanla was promptly met and defeated
The thId atocity OF the sort was that OF the Lake
Shore peop.e, who had the impudence to seek to
cross tie Northern Neck of Pennsy lvania without
traushppiug every thing at Erie and regsling them
selves on her pea.puts-an attempt which punish
cd by systematic bridge-burning and track-plowing
by the enlightened and generous Eriesns eondemning

out of their warm cars and ride eight miles in winter
over bleak plain in open sleighs or wagons Aud
now it seems that fourth company, under totally
distinct charter is building rival road that
neck of PenDsy lvanis, whereby two o. three Coun-
ties Of that State now secluded, will be placed in
the direct line of communication between Ohio aud
New-York by way of the Erie Road from Little VAL
ley. What ,riu become of the Key-Stonel If an
eecuo stop s not put to this business, every Coun
ty will be traversed by Railroad built at the ex
pense Of neighborng States; for it is not to be de-
MED that Peunsy lyania has enterprisng, go-ahead
neielbors What shall De done Can't the inini.a
bic Mayor King, the immaculate Lowry and the invin-
chile Fitzpatrick be induced to depoy their doughty
tattaliOns upon these new Railroad building mscre
ants down in Crawford County Can't the Erie
Council have the rails taken up by the City Marshal
Wlo cares for iDunctions from L. s. Courts there
are Justices OF the Peace in Erie who can override
htm any day The rights of Erie in the way of bag.
