An act which proposes to pass upon a subject the citizens of the Commonwealth as that of the p to be drawn with very great care. The present vised, and is replete with inconsistencies and would, in all probability, lead to serious trouble. vides: "That in all cases where public roads, wheth ing to law, or in any other way became a publ thereof, in townships of this Commonwealth, shal convenient, insufficient, burdensome or useless,

s "public roads" are to be regarded as the subject of ame," it is difficult to understand how they could behereof." If, on the other hand, we interpolate a subword "became," and the words "public roads" are the verb "shall have become," it is then difficult to underads which have become burdensome or useless should ing or straightening. There is no direction as to who e right to petition, nor how many petitioners there è court, however, is directed to grant a view to widen, ter or change, as well as vacate "the whole or such as may be rendered or considered useless." In sece viewers are directed that, if they agree that the road inconvenient, insufficient, burdensome or useless, and ires widening, straightening, altering or changing and y shall proceed to lay out such road. In section four, hat the report of the viewers, “if favorable to the peticontain a recommendation as to the width of said s here been forgotten that the petition might have been icating the road, and not in favor of laying it out or Section eight provides that "the respective court," may be, "shall, on petition of any person interested, ad view, or review, for the same purpose." This apnconsistent with section one, which directs that the ired to appoint "as often as may be needful" a jury of are illustrations of numerous difficulties with the bill, improper that it should become a law. easons the bill is not approved.
