Tue DELAWARE RAILRoAD.-A latter from
Judge Harrington to Messrs Dupont and Will
son, Charmen respectfully of the committees
of the two houses of the General Assembly, to
to whom the memorial Of the Delaware Rail-
road Company, asking aid to assist in its com.
pletion, was referred. Ths letter is an ex-
plenatory one,and urges with much force the
necessity of the States loaning its credit to the
amount Of $4,000. The letter takes the
ground that the State will, aside from the bene-
fits growing out of the completion of the road
be enriched to the amount Of the value of the
of the stock purchased with this sum at the
time of the maturing of the bonds, and S8O7. IA
beside.
The proposition, as we understand it, from a
I hasty perusal of the Judges letter. is, that the
n State shall set apart and invest at compound
I interest $6,500 which it receives in semi-annu-
4 al payments, as part of the bonus, from the
| Philada., Wilmington and Baltimore Railroad,
and the New Castle and Frcnchtowm Turnpike
and Railroad Companies, which sum thus nves-
ted sem-annually, at compound interest Tor
twenty years, will accumulate interest sufficient
to pay the bonds of the State for SI70,S07. IA.
1t therefore, proposes that the State shall issue
bonds payable IN twenty years and two the
amount of Sl70,OOO bearing six per cent. in.
terest and, with the money derived from then
sale. purchase 6,SO0 shares OF stock With
this money paid Ia by the State for the stock
the Company will complete the Road 10 Sea
rord by the lst ol December next. The bond.
as they fall due, are to be paid with the inter.
est derived from the investment of the st, ,jlIt
at compound interest
As soon as the Delaware Railroad is com
ted, say December next the Philadelphia. WI
mlngton and Baltimore Railroad Company OF
S Ter to lease 1t from the Directors and turnisl
e cars, engines and all the necessary rolling stoc
Y to run 1t, aud guarantee to the stockholders
!, per cent, on the par value, of their envestment
1 From this source the State will derive suffi
Y clent interest from the Go0O shares of stool
Il to pay the interest on the bonds Tor $l70,0O(
l. Beside this, 1t is contended that the Stat
n owns already Sl30,0O0 worth of the stock
e t issues the bonds, the road will be complete
y at once, and 1t will. therefore, secure intere,
d Immediately thereafter on the %l3O,00O alre;
e dy invested. But should the State not issu
e the bonds, the road cannot be completed /;
II for many years, and therefore the interest upo
r the $I30,000 invested will be a dead loss

AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITUTION On
the oath Of January, 1853, the Legislature OF
this State passed an act proposing an amend
ment to the Constitution OF the State, WHICH,
jim order to become valid, must be approved by
the present General Assembly. The amend
;ment is proposed for the purpose Of holding the
State and Presidential elections (Which come
within one week of each other) upon the same
day. 1t is thought that our Legislators WI
approve the amendment, as 1t will be of great
benefit to the State, by saving expense OF one
siection, and doing away with deal of excite
Insnt. including preliminaries, consequent upon
such occasions.
Since the above was in type. the amendment
has received the sanction oil both branches OF
shs Legislature.

STATE TEMPERANCE CsNvENrIoN.-Tne State
Temperance Convention, says Tue est Cites
ter Examiner, which assembled at HARRISBURG
q few days sILce was we'll attended. In their
Resolutions they looked upon the election OF
Gov. Pollock as a positive evidence that the
people desire Proh.bIory Liquor Law. They
say, "a majority OF the districts and counties
OF the State have gwen majortles tor the law,
and as they are represented by muJorlty In
both Houses ol the Legislature" they consider
them instructed to vote Tor mid and prudent
prohibltory Law, for the whole Slate, upon the
principle that Representative Is bound to vo.e
for his constituency. They also declare that
they will vote for those who support Their Cause
spa they will adhere to no party that will not
support the principles of prohibition. They
ask for Law that may be as mild as it can be
90 be efficient. with no features objectionable
or unconstitutional that can be avoided.

Duck Greek Railroad.

At meeting held week or two since which
was numerously attended, and by the unani-
nous expression of the people, it was decided
TO petition the Legislature to grant charter
for = railroad running from Smyrna or some
point west thereof to deep water navigation on
the Delaware. Memorials have been in circu-
lstion and numerously signed by the citizens OF
Smyrna and vicinity, which will, at an early
day, be presented to the Legislature. A rail-
road running from Smyrna to the Delaw
will be great desiderGtum to the business OF
this town. Our citizens are noted for their
snergy in business-all they want are the tacrli-
ties of trade. The amount OF business done by
and through the town, is computed at $jOO,OUO
annually, and by the advantages of a railroad,
it would soon reach Sl,OO0,0C0. The greatest
benefit OF the road will be the transportation
of grain from this port to New York and Boston,
throughout the entire yeur. Instead OF going
to Philadelphia, and passing through several
hands-tach one taking his per cenium-lt Cali
20 directly to New York, and the $, lier secure
the advance of that market over Phladel pha,
and the gain of the agents or merchants through
whose haRds it passes. The difference IN iavol
of the graip-seller would be from hve to eight
cents per bushel. Every advantage which Cal
be obtained honestly, should lie done, and tht
completion OF the enterprise would greatly en-
hance our local and cOnlnerc al business.
