No PASSES TO BE ISSUED. Its we'll known
that the new constitution of Pennsylvania pro-
to any persons other than their EMPLOYEES. In
view of this the Philadelphia, Wilmington &
Baltimore Railroad Company did not, as usual,
issue nsw passes at the beginning of the
present year, but extended their old ones
until the 25th inst, so that legal advice could
be had as to whether the prohibtory clause
applied to their road, owing to its line running
through three diff rent States. We under
stand that the company's counsel Monday
decided that no passes could be issued lawfully,
except to employees, and that the officers oi

The Chesapeake q Delaware Ship
Canal.

Senator Earle did good thing on Wednes.
day. He got leave to report bill to secur.
the survey OF route for shin canal to con.
meet the waters of Chesapeake Bay with thosa
of the Delaware. BY merely following the
line Of the two Bays-divided az they are bv
a narrow neck of level land composed wholly
OF ahuVlal soil, and Offering no obstacles 10
easy cuttng-any intelligent mind will be salts
fed Of the ease with which the ocean can h.
reached by the proposed route the great saw
ing 1t would effect in voyages made, not To
Europe only, but to the Eastern ports of thu
United States, 2nd-in addition to the shortar
time-Of the economy that would be sffectel
in these days of ocean steamers, in the exDsn
diture of fuel. MoreOVsr-and startling as the
statement may appear, it is nevertheless strict.
ly true-by means OF this canal the interior
cities of the West and Northwest could be
brought nearer to Europe than by way of New
York, and, in consequences of the shorter linaa
OF inland transportation to Baltimore, could
place their products in the European markets
at smaller cost.
For example.
From Chicago to Lnnfs Enl, Cornwall,
via Baltimore and the canal, the distance woull
be as follows

Il win thus be seen that the distance of
Chicago from Europe by way Of New York or

miles only in favor Of Biltimore But the in

costly, Is 255 miles less from Chicago to- BAlti-
