Franklin, Esq. of Harri ot the public worKs awuo.eu.tu from any cause, remain it is nevertheless i that although only 72 additional miles nfraini rail road have been in use durin the present season, the tolls have been fncreased to an amount, in that time, nearly threeioiu thai 01 Uie prece-din'r'season. The tolls received upon our3 public improvements, during the Year ending on the olst ot 1832, amounted to juyj0y o. cem. t'aose received tor the year enuuig on the Slst of October last, amount to $151,419 G9j and this, too, before the works had become connected, or me people were prepared with the necessa ry means for transportation upon them.

It is conhdentlv expected os muse vmuc means of information tVm to calculate with some degree ot certainty, that the tolls to be received for the VMr 834.1 will fall little short nF tUv flu not exceed, a half a mil- linn nf dollars. Should that be tl case, of which there is scarcely a uouoi entertained, the public improvements will at once have relieved the people from the payment of the interest upon tn millions of dollars of State debt. and to that amount, the debt contract ed. by the State for internal improve ments may ue cuusuacu as zed if not virtually paid; the improve ments being to all intents and purpose: pmiivalent in noint ot value to the sum upon wlncn their proceeus jjj wc terest. it is proper, however, tc mark, that in order to realize this sum from tolls, as well as to secure the trade of the West, much will depend upon the enterprise and exertions ol lnuivtu-uais.

The State, at a vast expense, will have completed, early next spring. an entire line ot communication ue- tween Philadelphia and Pittsburg, by canals and rail-ways; upon these, merchandize and produce can be transported from city to city, in the short period ot eight days, and that, ioo, ni a iaie of freight so much reduced, as to enable us to enter into successful competition with our rivals for the Western trade. But this trade, so important, as well to the revenue of the Commonwealth, as to the future wealth prosperity of our principal commercial cities, is not to be secured but by timely and vigorous efforts. The Common wealth, so far as she was concerned in the. rf.neral welfare, has done her duty i constructing the public works; but it is not to be expected that she will line them with boats or cover them with cars; this must be done, it done at all.

by individuals or companies. The im portance ot securing me uaueoi me Western States has, for years past, attracted the attention of two of our most enterprising prosperous sister states, the one on the North and the other on the South, nor have the most strenuous and persevering etibrts been wanting on their part to monopolize so important a branch of commerce. A policy on our part that would induce us to remain idle spectators when so mnch is stake, would be altogct'uer indefensible, especially, when ve have all the advantages of "a central position: the shortness of our route the advantages ol earlier and later navigation ot our ca nals: our mineral wealth and agricultural nroductions, all presenting asuperi ority of advantages and facilities in ac complishing tne lmportantoLjeei, wmui if early embraced and vigorously im proved, will not fail to secure to our Commonwealth, a complete ascenuan cy. To our merchants and others in teresled in securing a commerce so ex tensive as well as tne neces- sitr of oromnt and efficient measure to have in roadiness all the facilities and means for an active and energet ic transportation upon our public works earlv in' the spring, must be manifestly obvious. For the amount in detail, of the ap propriations that will be required tn complete the unfinished works, and finish the rail-roads with the necessary appendages to put them in operation, must bez leave to refer you to the r.

port of the board of canal commissim ers. With prospects so fellow, citizens, in the very infancy of our pub lic works, the frier, no of tne sho on a burg, late clerk of the.

The story of the 150 soldiers having marched from Fort Mitchell against the settlers is more, humbug; got up, doubtless, to subserve some idle or sinister nnrpose. The troops at fort Mitchell, we repeat, are subject to the orders of the Marshal, and that officer has giv- public notice that the settlers will not be disturbed until after the loth ot January.

Before that day arrives, we hope and trust the selection of the Indian will have been made, i he necessity of the Marshal in terference dispensed with. Lommcrciui Jiepsicr. H.VRKiSBUKG, Dec. 4. In the Senate, this morning, the fallowing standing committees were appointed, viz: Accounts Messrs.
