The annual report of the directors was then read

The ciliation' said that, at the last tneetiog, a com
mittee woe appointed, under a reaolation, to impure into
the condition and the mane Cement of the company, and
to report ut a subsequent meeting. The chairman of the
committee, lion. Joseph R. Ingersoll, had handedlo him

the report referred to:
The committee of stockholders appointed at the last
Annual tracking, to whom was referred for examination
the report of the president and directors then received,
submitted the following resolutions:
Rewired, That from the inzitries and examination of
the committee into the condition and management of the

zegulations for the freight and forwarding business aro
calculated to promote the interests of the stockholders,
Sind the accon.modation of the public.
Bete/red, That this committee is convinced of the in=
fegrltr, ability, and fidelity of the management of the
EMMY.
• 'Resolved, That this committee, exercising discretion,
Tested in them by the resolution of the stockholders, do

holders to submit report, and that the above resolutions
be submitted at the next annual meeting of stockholder..
J. R. Ingersoll, Chairman ; Alexander Fullerton, Henry
Cope, C. H. Fisher, James Celan, William Divine, corn
inittee.
If:. James Page submitted a minority revert, on be.
half of himself, as the non-concurring member of the
committee. Ills view of the affairs was diametrically op.
'posed to the opinions of the rest of the committee. Ile
thought the road had been extravagantly constructel and
managed that the favors given to its Western connec
tions had been disastrous to its - interest, and that the con
duct of all the departments of the business of the company
had been estravagant, and calculated to injure
the road.
At the close of his statement, which was extremely
lengthy and full of detail, Mr. Page presented his objec
tions to the management of the road, and his desire to
]rave it differently done.
MI=N=IMI:I
Crispy thought that the report of the majority of
the committee olmuld antis!y the etookholders.
Gol. rage remarked that what he had stated was tho
roughly correct. Although thd report has - been signed
by six members, it had been adopted by a bare majority.
The committee had never examined the accounts, or even
looked over the load.
Mr. Megargee moved, as a subatitute for the motion of
Mr. Schofield, it at a committee of three be appointed to
/NM printed, in pamphlet form. 5,000 copies of the se_
port of the committee. as wall as the minority report,
within five days, and that a copy be sent to each stocks
bolder.
Mr. Caso, of Pittsburg, said that Cot. Pace had made
Statements upon a great many points, upon which he
night have got different information. Ho desired to
know that when he discovered these facts, he did not go
a step further ad ascertain their truth. Ile asked Col.
rage - 0 - bether any source of information had been closed
to him.
Col. Page replied that ho had based all his statements
Cron extracts from the annual reports of the directors.
He then proceeded to state what had taken place in the
committee.
11. M. Phillips raised a point of order that it was
riot usual to dii.mwe what had been done in committee.
The Chairman declared that the -point was well taken
Mr. Cate declared that the report ought to go to a coin.
Inittee for examination, and not gO to the community to
break down the interests of the company.
A stockholder thought that the president of the com
pany could give explanations upon many points in the
_Tainority report.
Mr. John M. Kennedy suggested the reference of the
'report to a committee of stockholders, to confer with a
committee of the directors, and that the author of the
aninority report should be invited. He considered such
a course due to the company and to the gentleman who
bad presented the report.
Mr. John Eulme suggested that the stockholders ap
point a committee of thirteen to consider this matter, and
that this committee ehould be their own directors, to be
toted for next March.
Mr Phillips thought that the best plan would be to re
fer the report back to the committee.
Mr. Algernon S. Roberts made some remarks upon the
'abject. He was of the came opinion as Mr. Phillips.
Mr Elkin then offered a resolution that the reports he
referred to the incoming board for examination.
Mr. Theodore Curler referred to the highly prosperous
Condition of the read, and could not see how the policy of
the company could be so bad as represented by Colonel
Page. Re thought that the reports should be referred to
the incoming board.
Mfr. Schofield then 'withdrew his resolution to make
wag for that of Mr. Elkiu, but Mr. Megergee refused to
Withdraw his substitute.
Mr. eugler then moved that the resolution of Mr. Me-
Bargee be postponed.
The discussion of the subject was continued at great
length.
Colonel Page said that he had made his report from a
conscientious motive, and should not complain of what
the meeting eletnl.l do with it.
he motion to pottpone Mr. Megargee'a resolution was
agreed to.
The resolution of Mr. Elkin was then adopted, after
lidding the 0111 F, "and that the directors be requested
to make a detaileA report to the stockholders."
The meeting then adjourned.
GOVERNMENT HosPrrALs.—Preparations are
tow being made at the Government • Hospitals re
cently established in this city to receive a certain
Member of the sick or wounded of our army who
may be sent to them. By orders received from
Washington, it appears that about 500 soldiers will
Soon be conveyed to this city from the hospitals at
the seat of war. The first establishment of this
kind started here was at the old Moyamensing
Ball, in Christian street, between Ninth and Tenth
streets, formerly occupied as a station-house by the
First-district police. The whole building has been
refitted and, furnished with beds, &a., and eon-
Ulna all the comforts that can be desired. A
large number of sick and wounded are constantly
to the list at this establishment. The next hospital
of note is the one at the southeast corner of
Need and Cherry streets. The building is a very
large and deep two-story brick, and was formerly
Sued as a freight depot. It has been almost re
built, and from its present appearance one could
Lever imagine what it was originally intended for.
The old coach-factory of Mr. Dunlap, at Fifth and
Buttonwood streets, has also recently been mash
improved in its internal appearance, and is now
ready for the reception of patients. The building
is a large four-story brick, and is well adapted for
this purpose. It is also said, in case of necessity,
the large paper-mill of Mr. Curry, at Twenty-se
cond and Callowhill streets, will be turned into a
hospital. Besides these institutions, there are nu-
MMus othefi, now in full operation, where from
twelve to thirty sick and wounded can be treated.
Each of the Government hospitals will have one
Surgeon at their head, and as many assistants as
:nay be required. Dr. Meredith Clymer has been
assigned to duty as brigade surgeon at the Fifth
street Hospital, and Dr. Reese as surgeon of the
Christian-street Hospital. Dr. Neill is the surgeon
ift charge of the Broad-street Hospital, and at
present bee the general superintendence of the hos
pitals in this city. Each institution will also con
tain a number of nurses, and everything will be
Conducted strictly in accordance with military
regulations. We are informed that a number of
tick and wounded will be brought on to this city in
a few days, the object being to vacate all the hospi
tals at or near the seat of war, in order that they
army be ready for the reception of soldiers who may
be wounded in battle. It is the intention not to
have these latter hospitals too much crowded with
convalescing patients, thus rendering it necessary
to convey those dangerously ill or wounded a num
ber of miles before they could he properly treated.
The general office of the surgeon in charge is at
the Broad-street Hospital. Pennsylvania and Now
Jersey have been added to the department of the
army of the Potomac. Any articles that may be sent
to the sick and wounded, in the different hospitals,
Should be sent to the headquarters at Broad and
Cherry. The only surgeons appointed as yet are
fkteredith Clymer, M. D., brigade surgeon,Richard
J. Dunglison, M. D., and William W. Bred, 61. D.,
assistant surgeon, United States army. These gen
tlemen have been appointed to the Fifth street
Zespital.

TELE MONEY MARKET.
PRILADSLruIA I Feb. a, UM
Stocks were fictive to-day, although generally without
change in prices, except Pennsylvania Railroad, for
which there were large orders, and which advanced 1
per cent. Reading was firmer than at the close of Sa
turday, selling, at ono time, at 20%, but it subsequently
receded to 20%. The sudden fall of the price of this
stock on Saturday seemed to intimidate the Forties who
have recently tam buying it so freely, whilst the ab
sence of any bear interest saved it from hammering.
When the report of the Pennsylvania_Railroad Com
pany became known, it was the general subject of com
ment in the Stock Exchange. It woe universally ad
mitted to be vary favorable—mueh more so than the most
eammine friends of the road bad expected.
At the close. gold was dull at 3, , i03,4.

Tho Nee• York Evening Pool of to-day sari :
The stack market opened firmer under some reassuring
telegrams in the morning papers relative to our foreign
relations, and prices of several of the leading stocks re
covered max per cent. of the heavy decline of Saturday,
but a free supply of stock caused a further decline of y,
per cent. in some descriptions, the market finally geeing
weak.
The market commenced with a much better feeling in
Government securities. 89 being paid for the coupon sixes
of 1881, and 8731 for the registered ; but these are again
weaker at the close, 88%a 8878 for the former and 87, a
87% for the latter. The coupon fives of 1874 are dull at
78%.
Among the heaviest of the list is Illinois Central,
which fell 1 cent. The Blow progress of the Cairo
expedition and the unfavorable legislation in the Illinois
State Convention and Congress, are, no doubt, the causes
of the depression.
After the Board Erie fell off to 33, Toledo to 40%, New
York Central to 83%, Michigan Central to 49%.

THE SAD CASE OF WILLIAM JONES
How sad is the case of William Jones,
'hom nobody loves and nobody owns!
The rags that cover his shivering bones,
As he totters along the cross-walk stones,
Too well attest the prince of drones!
The lack of economy darkened hie fate,
He went down hill at a fearful rate ;
And the sheriff tormented bhn early and late!
Zankrapt in cred t an well as in puree,
Be seemed to live under a kind of a curse,
His friends deserted bins one by, one;
And it happened from nothing else under the sun
Than that Lis clothing, which was so detrimental,
Never VMS purchased 'neath the grand "Continental.°
At Stokes' it One Price" be never had traded,
So his good name and his clothing both alike faded.
REMOVAL OF GOVERNMENT PRISONERS TO
FORT LAFAYETTE.—MarshaI Millward received orders,
on Friday, to send the Petrel pirates and other State
prisoners forthwith to Fort Lafayette. They will be
moved thither probably to-day. Lieut. Burnett, of the
regular regiment in charge of the fortress, is now in
town. While here he will procure for himself a complete
outfit at the Brown Stone Clothing Hall of Bockhill
Wilson, Nos. 603 and 606 Chestnut street, above
Sixth. No such suits can be procured In New York as
*remade here.
A Lycra" FELLow.—A poor bone-collector,
named Powell, a few years ago, bought an old vest for
four sents, and found in one of the pockets bank bills for
$1,5C0. Ilia unexpected wealth caused him his first
headache, for the poor man was puzzled what to do with
so much money. Had he lived in these times, he would
have no doubt at once invested a small portion of it in a
warm suit of winter clothes from the Palatial Storo of
Granville Stokes, No. 609 Chestnut street, one door
above Harnden's Express office, where an extensive
stock of superior clothing is now selling at sacrificing
prices.
BLUED YEATS.—We inyite attention to the
superior dried meate, elegant Jersepeured hams, large
ties tonguee, of delicious flavor, and fine dried beef, at
the store of Mr. C. 11. Mattson, dealer in fine groceries,
Arch and Tenth streets.

CATION.—Ii. T. TRALL, M. D., of New York,
will give a Course of six, Lectures, et the Hall of the
Christian Association,. opposite Brown's Hotel, WASH
INGTON CITY, commencing on TUESDAY EYE
JONG, Feb. 4, 1862, and continuing through the week.
his Lectures will embrace the following subjects :
1. An exposition of the fallacies of all Drug Medical
Systems. 2. An explanation of the true or Hygienic
System. S. A solution of those problems which have
baffled the investigations of medical men in all ages, and
which are regarded by the profession as profound mys
teries. wholly without the pale of human comprehension—
viz : the Essential Nature of Disease, and the Modus
Operandi of Medicines. 4. The rationale of all Forms
of Disease. 5. The rationale of all classes of Remedial
Agents. 6. Infallible Rules for the most successful treat
ment of all diseases. Health and Diseases of Woman.
TYPHOID FEVER, PNEUMONIA, MEASLES, ae.
PR TRALL will prove by abundant and conclusive
testimony and experience that the Hygienic System is
incomparably mere safe, sure, prompt, and efficient in
the treatment of the diseases which are the chief sources
of mortality in our Camps and Hospitals than is the
ordinary or drug treatment, and how very easy it is to
save the lives of thousands of our officers and soldiers
and millions of money. He will also treat of a hundred
other things of= vast importance to all, for particulars of
which see large progrutimm-
A New Theory of Disease
A New Doctrind of Remedies!
A New Philosophy of Medical Science!
A New System of the Healing Art! . .
DR. 'IRALL'S Philosophy of Medical Science is en
tirely original, its primary premises never having been
recognized by medical men, nor written In medical books,
nor taught in medical school., nor imagined by the peo
ple. Indeed, it is in direct contradiction to each and all
of the fundamental premises on which the so-called
Medical Science of the day is predicated.
TDB FALSE SYSTEM AND TILE TRUE.
DR. TRALL will demonstrate to the satisfaction of
every candid person who will hear him through the utter
falsity of the Drug Medical. System, and the absolute
truthfuluess of the Hygeinto Bledical System. He
pledges himself taahow by facts, experience, testimony,
logic, and by all of the data applicable to the issue, that-
the prevalent Medical System is, in all of its fundamental
propositions and problems, untrue in philosophy, absurd
in science, in opposition to nature, antagonistic to vi
tality, contrary to common sense, disastrous in results,
and a curse to the human race ; and that, on the con
trary, the Hygienic Medical System is true in philoso
phy, correct in science, in harmony with every law of
the Vital organism, in agreement with nature, in ac.
eordsnee with common sense, stwoettful to tractice, and
a blessing to mankind. Dr. Trail will show why it is
that Medical Science does not progress like other sciences,
and how it is that diseases and death have always in
creased as doctors 'and drags have multiplied.
DR. TRALL INVITES DISCUSSION.
SurilatemleiaL
DR. TEALL will, after each Lecture, reply to any
criticisms and answer any questions or objections which
may be presented by the audience. Medical gentlemen
1g all Scheele are especially invited—nay, challenged—to
bkaStbe liecturesoind state objections, If any they have,
to the positions advanced. . . .
THE SIIBJECT IS Or NATIONAL IMPORTANCE
DR. THALIA will be very happy, if permitted, to ex
plain the principles and practice of the system lie teaches.
in the Halls of the Capitol, before the President of the •
llnitni Masai-the , Cabinet, members -of COngre.% the-
Medical Faculty, and all learned Literary or Scientific
gentlemen wino may deem the subject worthy of their
attention, and particularly in their applicability to the.
health of our armies now in the field.
