Garrett, Esq., President of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company, on being notified of his re-election to that posi tion ou \\ ednesduy, appeared before the Board of Directors and delivered an address, setting forth the future policy and prospects of the company In bia addieM he said : It is to be regretted that the Pennsylvania Hailroad Campany has still further succeeded the construction of the Pittsburg and ( ocuclisville Railroad. The Pennsylva nia ' ompany has thrown aside the thin dis guise, it may have heretofore attempted to "fie on this subject, and, in the trial of the < ause at \\ illiamsport, in June last, appeared >y its counsel to endeavor practically to pre ■ '-nt the construction of that road, so much needed by the interests of Pittsburgh and d ie Northwest, by the region which it will • averse through Pennsylvania, and by the cities of Washington and Baltimore. The issue which was tried before the jury at Wil linmsport, to determine whether the company had forfeited its charter by miuse or abuse, resulted in a verdict in its favor, whereupon the Circuit Court of the United States made the injunction, which had been granted the year before, restraining the Connellsville and Southern Pennsylvania Railroad Company from interfering with the route or franchises of the Pittsburgh and Connellsville Company, perpetual, on the ground that the law of Pennsylvania, repealing the charter of the last named Company south and eaat of Con nellsville, was inoperative and void. From the decree of the Circuit Court, an appeal has been taken to the Supreme Court of the United States, where, it is hoped, it may be heard at an early day, even if out of its order, in consequence of the national importance of the completion of the work, which this liti gation, through the direct agencies of rival in terests alone, has so long delayed. Pending the litigation before the United States Courts, a proceeding by quo warranto (also instigated by the Pennsylvania Railroad interests) wa 8 instituted in thejState Courts o,f Pennsylvania, which it was hoped would have, ere this, been brought to a conclusion, and with a like fa vorable result as the case before Judges Grier and McCandless. The procrastination which lias characterised the course taken by hostile interests, has prevailed here, however, and it is not now anticipated that the argument of the quo warranto will take place for some months. The result can hardly be doubtful. The trial in June last, at Williamsport, before a jury, demonstrated the utter baldness of the pretensions of our opponents when submitted to the test of judicial inquiry. In the mean while, the work upon the road has been grad ually pushed forward, and the heaviest por tion of it —the Sand Patch Tunnel, through the summit of the Alleghanies—is well ad vanced towards completion. But for the de lays which a vexatious and unwarrantable lit igation has caused, the direct communication by rail between Baltimore and Pittsburgh, would now be in actual operation.' 1 SAND PATCH TUNNEL. —"The work on Sand Patch Tunnel, on the Pittsburg and Connells ville Railroad, is still being pushed forward by our fellow-citizen, Mr. John Humbird, who has the contract, and on last week a hole was made. The length of the tunnel is 4,700 feet, being 1,000 feet longer than the long tunnel on the Pennsylvania Centra! Railroad through the Alleghcnies between Altoona and only about 250 feet shorter than the great Kingwood tunnel on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, It is intended for a double track, and is twenty-two feet wide by nineteen feet in height. As soon as the legal questions concerning the Pittsburg and Connellsville Railroad shall have been decided, the work on the road t ill be pushed rapidly forward to completion."— Cumberland Civilian. [As the "legal questions'" referred to have been appealed to the Supreme Court of the United States, at Washington, it would seem as if a final decision had been indefinitely ad" journed : for, as the case stands before the public, it is not clear that either of the two great interests that are the real parties in the suit, are very urgent for a conclusive adjudi cation. Meanwhile the development of the south west portion of Pennylvauia is postponed. In the progress of events, however, it is made more manifest from year to year that the Pittsburg and Connellsville Railroad Company must lOOK UJCU xx M • IBUU ■ G in than Cumberland as the principal eastern point in its plan and programme. With its name changed to the "Pittsburg, Cumberland and Ilarrisburg Railroad," and its corporate privileges extended to cover the ground from Wills" Creek, at the eastern base of the Allegheny Mountain, (where the present route makes a turn in its course to reach Cumberland,) to the Lebanon Valley Railroad on the east bank of the Susquehan na river, the scheme would be adjusted to the interests of Pittsburg, the southwest counties, West Virginia, etc. : because then the line would have direct outlet to all the three great tidewater cities, and could command financial success.] — V. 8. It. R. & M. Register. THE REPRINTS OP Bf.APK.wooD'a MAGAZINE AND THE BRITISH REVIEWS.— -We desire to draw the attention of our readers to the re prints, by Leonard Scott, Publishing Compa ny, 3b Walker Street, New York, of Black wood's Magazine, the Edinburgh, the North British, the London Quarterly and the West minster Reviews. The fact that the Endinburgh is now sixty years old or thereabouts, aud that the Lou don Quarterly has reached the venerable age of fifty-nine, while Blackwood, which dates from the year 1817, is as vigorous as ever, and its power is felt on both sides of the At lantic, shows that the educated classes of our Anglo-Saxon race discern in these journals a mastery, a power of thought aud an attrac tiveness of style, which no similar works haye ever attained. Publishers in our coun try have attempted reprints of other Europe an Magazines and Reviews, without success ; but the demands for these journals grows just as education extend in our land. This is the case, notwithstanding some articles that at times find their way into them which the pop ular judgment of our people would reject or condemn. It could not be expected that our people would look at all matters, social, gov ernmental, or eccletrtieal, from a French, a German, or a British stand-point, but the causes which lead our educated people to value these journals as they do, are obvious to all who are acquainted with them, and who understand the manner in which they are sustained. The political parties in great Britian attach a great importance to the power of the press. TJje Whigs in the early days of Lord Jeffrey commenced the Edinburgh Review, in order that by its tremendous cannonade, it might batter down the fortress of Toryism. So also, when its force was felt, the opposing party had recource to a similar expedient; and, thus, under the auspices of the Tories, arose the Quarterly Review. The late VS m. Blackwood, of Edinburgh, a shrewd, clear headed, and intelligent publisher, annoyed by the assumption of his Whig neighbors, and believing that "The Blue and Yellow —the colors of the Hdinburgh—should be assailed in its chosen hom, resolved to establish a magazine. He objected to a quarterly, as his object was, by amcuhly periodical, vari ed, racy, and trenchant in its character, to appear three times before the public for eve ry single appcurance of the Review. The world upw knows the energy and remarkable judgment combined with great liberality which have characterized that periodical. Abroad, the editorship was attributed to Pro- . fessor Wilson, Professor Aytouu, and others, but really they were only contributors, audi from the beginning, and during all its history | the members of the firm have been the res- j ponsibie managers. William Blackwood, senior, and his son, John, have mainly ruled the destiny of the magazine, their principle being simply to select the best writers, pay the highest prices, and take no article from any one, no matter how elevated, how learn ed, how wealthy, or how famed, without re muneration. Ihus the Edinburgh, the Quarterly, aud Blackwood arose. In process of time, the English Radicals felt the need of a journal, and they likewise started a Review. At the same time, the educated classes in England, desirous to become intimately ac quainted with Continental literature, com menced a similar enterprise; but divided counsels and coutinued strife led to the pub lication of two journals instead of one. In process of time these Quarterlies combined, aad finally a anion took place with the radical political journal, and thus the reading public were provided with the present Westmiuter Review. Of course it is advanced in its religious and political articles, but its merely literary essays are not only on a level with, but otteu far ahead of those in other journals. Strange as it may appear to certain of our readers, this journal, with its bold assaults on evangelical religion, its trenchant, scornful criticism on the productions of our recognis ed orthodox schools, is the one of all others that our educated ministers and tainking minds will regularly regard. It points out to tfiem the devices of the enemy, where the mine is to be constructed, where the assault is to be made. It tells them without the purchase of scores of costly European books in foreign tongues, what criticism is doing in Germany, Italy, France, and England, and thus it keeps them apace with modern thought. We have entered into these details because of our desire to aid in the circulation of these valuable journals, which may be iiad from the publishers for the small sum of fifteen dollars annually. To order them from England they would cost upwards of fifty dollars, exclusive of the carriage. To intelligent young men in our churches we suggest the formation of reading clubs, and by all means let all such clubs put down the name of the pastor as an honorary member. Of course, Blackwood alone, or Blackwood and any one, or all, of the Re/iews, may be ordered; aud when our readers will reflect on the fact that for the small sum of fifteen dollars they are supplied with twelve numbers of a magazine and six teen numbers of four Reviews, in which al most every subject of interest, ancient and modern history, travels, literature, political parties, poetry, romance, and religion, are discussed by master minds, it will be admit ted that the subscription price is merely nom inal for such a rich return. Consumption Curable by Dr. Schenck's Medicines. To cure consumption, the system must be pre pared go that the lungs will heal. To accomplish this, the stomach and liver must first be cleansed and an appetite created for good wholesome food, which by these medicines will be digested prop erly, and good healthy blood made: thus build ing up the constitution. Schenck's Mandrake Bill's cleanse the stomach of all billious or mucous accumulations: and by using the Sea Weed Tonic in connection, the appetite is restored. Schenck's Pulmonic Syrup is nutritious as well as medicinal, and by using the three remedies all • f r., lit Mitt ' - wholesome blood made, which will rp.i nil dis ease. If patients will take these medicines ac cording to directions, Consumption very .Vequent ly in its last stage yields readily to tbei) action- Take the pills frequently, to cleanse the liver and stomach. It does not follow that because the bowels are not costive they are not-required, for sometimes in diarrhtea they are necessary. The stomach must be kept healthy, and an appetite created to allow the Pulmonic Syrup to act on the ravpir&tory organs properly and allay any irrita tion. Then all that is required to perform a per manent cure is, to prevent taking cold. Exercise about the rooms as much as possible, eat all the richest food—fat meat, game, and, in fact, any thing the appetite craves; but be particular and masticate well.

Every day demonstrates more clearly that Liv er Complaint, in all its distressing forms, con be controlled and cured without difficulty or inconve nience. It is an obstinate disease, but its obsti nacy is not proof against the pertinacious, reme dial and restorative operation of HOSTKTTKIt'B STOMACH BITTEB6. That genial corrective compels the organ to do its duty. It must secrete regularly and healthfully under the inffuence of the Bitters. Their action brings it back from a state of rebellion into perfect harmony with the laws of health. If there is eostiveness, it disap pears, if there is side ache or back-nclie it ceases; if the skin and the whites of the eyes nre tinged with superffous bile, they recover their natural hue; if the appetite is gone, it returns; if tnc di gestion is impaired, it is restored; in brief, what ever the symptoms of the complaints may be, and whatever the phase it has assumed, a cure is cer tain. Buch are the uniform effects of this prepa ration where bilious disease has been already de velojfd: but in cases where there is merely a con stitutional tendency to liver complaint, it may be prevented throughout life by the regular use, in small quantities, of this palatable antidote. These are proven facts, and sh-nld be aerionsly pondered, or, rather, they should lie promptly cted upon, by persons of bilious habit. ®&{F*Wedding Cards, Business Cards, Bill Heads, Circulars, and all kind of Mercantile Blanks, neatly and expeditiously executed at the INQVIREU Job Office.

The Scientific American to be Greatly Enlarged, This widely circulated and Popular Journal of the Industrial Arts and Sciences enters its twen ty-second year on the Ist of January next, and the publishers propose to signalize the occasion by Enlarging it to the size of the most costly Scientific Journals of Great Britain, without, increasing the subscription price. It is almost superfluous to speak of the great value of this Popular and Useful Journal to all classes, and especially to Mechanics, Manufactu rers, Inventors, Engineers, Chemists, Agricultur ists, and all who love to read of the wondrovs pro gress which now marks every department of Me chanical Engineering and the Industrial Arts and Sciences generally. The Editorial department is very ably conduc ted. and many of the best Scientific writers in this country and Europe are contributors to its pages. Many of the articles have the charm of romance about them, and inspire the mind with noble ideas. Tbo Scientific American has the largest circu lation of any similar journal in existence, but it ought to hove a million of readers in this growing country. The engravings of New Inventions, Tools, Im plements fir the Farm, Workshop and Household are very numerous, and arc spl-ndidly executed by the best artists in the world. This feature of the paper is very striking, and has won the praise of the united press of the country and Europe. Another feature of the Selrntijie American is the Official publication of every Patent granted by tbe Government Patent Office. Each number contains the weekly issue of Patent Claims, with copious notices of new inventions, together with Reviews of Foreign Inventions and Discoveries in every department of Science. Whoever reads the Scientific American is in structed and outcitaincd, without being bothered with hard words and dry details. The American and European I'ateDt Offices, iu connection with the Scientific American, form an immense Museum of Mechanical Novelties which furnish constant employment to a large corps of Scientific Examiners who prepare drawings and specifications for Patents. This firm is no doubt the most extensive in the world. Now is the time to send in subscriptions to the Scientific American, so as to begin with the new volume. The numbers for a year make up a splendidly illustrated volume of 832 pages.

Daily, Tri-Weekly and Weekly Editions, devoted if to News, Commerce, Politics, Agriculture, Manu factures, Liteiaiurc and Science. The best Hows paper, the best Political paper, the best Commer cial paper, the most valuable Family paper, the Largest paper in the Northwest. It publishes more Telegraphic News, better Market Reports, more Interesting News, and a Greater Variety of Reliable and Useful Information than any other paper in America. The Chicago Tribuni, now approaching iia twenty-first year, is recognized as the leading or- , gan and exponent of the great, patriotic, domi nant Republican party of the Northwest. The Tribune is no ephcmernl toncem of doubtfol du ration, but a permanently established institution, known and respected throughout the Uuited States. Its circulation exceeds the combined is sues of other Chicago dailies. It" past record and career may be pointed to with pride and pleasure by its conductors. Since the Republican party was organized, the Chicago Tribune has stood by it, through evil as well as good report never in the rear, but always in the front, beckoning it on ward and upward; never faltering or weary, but always hopeful., earnest, fearless. Its blows have failen incessantly on slavery, oligarchy and trea .-oi). During the entire period of the rebellion It blew no uncertain blasts, but sounded the charge and cheered on the defenders of freedom to renew ed efforts, assuring them of a glorious triumph for the right as the reward of perseverance and sacrifice. And now, when the wicked rebellion is crushed, the oligarchy conquerred, atd slavery abolished, the Chicago Tribune insists that the legitimate fruits of our victory -hall not be yielded back to vanquished rebels by an apostate Executive, who has basely and wickedly betrayed the loyal peo ple who intrusted him with Presidential powers. The Tribune opens a new campaign to seeure to ; the Union an enduring peace, and a reconstruc i tion based on the principles of EQUAL RIGHTS J AND EXACT JUSTICE TO AI.L MEN! It therefore advocates Impartial Suffrage, irrespec tive of color or birthplace. Right wrongs no man, and no man's rights are abridged or endangered by giving to every law-abiding citizen all his rights. And no scheme of reconstruction will prove satisfactory or enduring that denies equal eivil and political right# and privileges to any class off loyal cftirm#. No be nor rat can oppose impartial suffrage and equal rights without shame ful inconsistency and stultification. And the South can never be truly free, prosperous or hap py until all its citizens are recognized as equal before the law, and equal in making the laws, which they must obey, regardless of color or po sition. The Chicago Tiibane sincerely believes in the | principles of the Declaration oi Independence, and is therefore Radical in its aims, impulse# and endeavor?, and is confident of witnessing, at an early day, the acceptance and adoption of the be neficent doctrines of Republicanism in every sec tion and subdivision of our common country. The readers of tbe Tribune will bear testimony that the policies it has opposed have generally been discarded; the measuros it has supported have nearly all been adopted, and that its predic tion-have been singularly verified. The secreto! its influence on public affairs is, that it espouses what is right, earnestly, and combats what is wrong, boldly: and the glass with wbK'h it sees into the future is implicit faith in the power of Truth and the ultimate Triumph of Right. A FIBBT CXAS- Nr.wsea.j-Bn. -The Chicago Tribune, while fearless in the expression of its opinions, and patriotic in its endeavors, aims at being a First-Clas? Nowsjiaper. It bring# the news to the people of the Northwest several days sooner than the paper# of the seaboard, and sur passes all its contemporaries in the Northwest in every department of news enterprise. It discusses every subject of interest to Western men—moral, political literary, commercial and financial. No Western merchant, banker, fanner, mechanic, drover or manufacturer, can study his own interest and do without it. No farmer should ; sell a bushel of wheat, corn, oats, or a pound of beef or pork, without reading the Tribune-, no manufacturer his wrre?: no mechanic the product of his hands, without first consulting it# well-fill ed. accurate and reliable commercial columns.
