lhe eject Of the decision of The Cezrt is,
tha' The Pennsylvania Railroad Company
may purchase the Line. if it chooses, on the
same terms as any other bidder, but in doing
so 1t will not be relieved from the paymen; Of
tonnage or any other kind of tsxatiou. This
decision must Of course, prove fatal to the
hopes oil The Pehnsylyapia Railroad Company
to purchase the line under the bill of the last

rers, Tor the purpose of passing The bill, will
prove bad speculation. The opinion is ar
able enc, and has been vtll received by al
parties.
