General Harrison Allen.

Among the able. genial, and courteous,
Republican State Senator's stands Gen
eral Allen, of Warren county. His fine
qualities and noble military record en-
deared him to the people among whom
he lives, and on two occasions they testi-
fled their appreciation of him by sending
him, first to the Lower House Of the Leg
islature, and second. to the Senate, where
he now is discharging tue duties of that
position. He has another year to eerve.
General Allen was largely voted for i'll
the Republican State Convention. at Har-
risburg. Oh the 18th. He fills his place
so well in the Senate that it almost
seems like doing . wrong to the party to
propose to take him from the honorable
post that he now occupies. Rotation in
Office is right when the incumbent is in
competent to discharge the duties of his
place. or is an unfaithful or bad servant
of the people. Rotation is not right and
proper for party if the incumbent is
competent to discharge the duties Of bis
place, or is faithful and honest servant
of the people, The people of General
Aliens district doubtless will return him
to the Senate, at the next election
The press predicts higher honors for him.

advancing the interests of Philadelphia

receiving their foreign goods through the
New York Custom House. 1t was no
uncommon thing for goods to lie in New
York five days before being forwarded to
Philadelphia, The effect of this delay
upon the trade of Pennsylvania chief
city is easily seen. New York could
supply the market before our merchants
were ready to sell. Col Forney. aided
by the merchants of Philadelphia. pro.
pose to change this system. 1t is pro-
posed to have the foreign goods shipped
without oelay to Philadelphia, thereby
giving our merchants the same chance in
the market that the New Yorkers have.
Colonel Forney deserves all praise for so
soon moving in the matter.

The Pennsylvania Central Railroad is
now. including all its connections, the
greatest railroad company in the world.
Within the eight days just passed the
country has been informed Of new en-
terprise. in which it has embarked, that
is destined, within the few years to come.
to give it the control of the great current of
trade that is setting in from China and In
dia to this country. and thence to Europe.
1t has perfected arrangements for the
construction of a railroad from point on
the Pacific Central, in Utah, to Puget
Sound. The terminus at the Sound is
said to be by steamship six or seven days
nearer China than is San Francisco. Cal
ifornia The importance of the red uction
of one week time in the transportation
of merchandise from China and other ad
jacent countries, is so apparent that it
need not be dwelt upon. This is severe
blow on San Francisco, for it will turn
from that city great part of the trans
Pacific trade or commerce. The COM
pany has not asked the government for
land grant or any assistance to build this
new road. The stock has all been taken.
a great part of it by European capitalists.
