professed to advocate liberty, there was 'in the

some, occurrences which had only, lately takeu
place in Maryland, her people were about to de
termine which of these views of freedom would

,This , President passed on to refer to a matter
which he said, rie • supposed was just now deeply
agitating the minds of Abe people- all over the

soldiers. He desired to say that all such were
mistaken.
When the . question of empleying.colored men as
soidiers,was left to therviivernnient, it rested very
muoh with himself whether he. would make SOX
diers of them or not. Be pondered the matter care
fully, and when he became convinced that it was
a duty to so employ them lie aid not hesitate to do
so. He stood before the American , people re
sponeible for the act, responstble before the otitis
lien world; responsible for it he should eland in
the eyes of the historian; responeible for it he stood
beforeA3od, and he did not shrink front the, deci
aion he had made, for he believed it was right; but
when the Governmentdetenuined to make soldiers
of them colored people he thought it only just that
they should have the same protection as the white
soldiers [applause], and•he hesitated not to declare
that the. Government would do so, and would pro
tect them to the, utmost, of its power. Whenever a
dear,well authenticated case should be made oat,
retribution should follow.. -

be thought they were likely to find a clear case.
The Governmest has no direct ev;deace to con
firm the reporta in eihr once relative to t he muse
ore,-,bat be feared that the facts related
were true. When the Government does know the
lecte. from official sources, and ..hey substan
tiate the reports, retribution will surely , be
given: (Great applause ] But, how ahouln
that 'retribution be adminietered ' was a <ince-

take the lives of prisoners in Washington, in
Fort Delaware,or elsewhere in retaliation for acts
In whichthey had not a sharel Would it be right
to take the prisoner captured, say set 'Vicksburg',
and, shoot him for acts of which he was not
guilty, and Which it will probably be found were
the ordering of , ealy a few • individuals, or possi
bly of orily one man! The President reiterated
that the Government would not fail to visit retri
liatien 'whew the facts were clearly proven.
Throughout his remarks, he was warmly ap-
planded, especially of his enunciation of a deter
mination to =visit retribution for the barbarous
deeds of the rebels.

FOILIHERN CENTRAL BALLWAY
A committee appointed at tne annual meeting of
the Stockholders of this Company, to Consider cer
tain expenditures for the improvement of the road,
suggested in the annual report of the managers,
made a report to a recent meeting of the Stock
holders. This report- states that the Committee
"are satisfied_ that the improvements suggested,
will be highly advantageous to the Company. It
is oithe first importance that the requisite facilities
should be furnished iO7 the accommodation of
business as it offers. With a single track and the
, present equipment this cannot be done.
"The road and the rolling stock are now
strained to their utmost capacity in the effort
to meet the derna,.da upon them , hut the
local interests cannot be provided for as they
should be. This at present is owing in a great
degree to the fact that the Government has
first to be supplied With transportation, and its_
wants are such as to exclude from the road a large
amount of business which would otherwise be
very advantageously done. Bnt tne committee
entertain the belief that even if the road was not
thus used by the Government, the amount of buei
ners now offering a ottld be fully equal to the ut
most capacity of the Company with their present
facilities. The sections of the country which con
tribute to your road are now being developed town
extent and with a rapidity which renders a large
lucre:, se of your facilities en imperative necessity,
ifyou would keep pace with such improvement's.
Within a few months the Philadelphia anu Erie
Railroad will doubtless be opened to the Lakes.
Your road is the trunk of that road, as also of the
Williamsport and Elmira, the Lackawanna and
Bloomsburg, and the Shamokin Valley.num
ber of smaller roads come into it at different points
through the Talley of the Susquehanna, and at
Harrisburg it joins the Pennsylvania Central and
forms the link which connects that road with Bal
timore, Washington and the Southeast coast of the
Atlantic.
"The mode of meeting the now large and lucre's
lag demands upon the road is to cocstruct a
double track and procure a supply of rolling
stock and materials adequate to these demands.
The officers and managers of the Company
have fully appreciated the necessity which ex
isted for increasing these facilities. Three modes
of - raising the requisite funds presented them
selves. One was to borrow the money. This was
rejected, because of a proper objection to an in
crease of the debt. Another mode was, to sell the
stock; but so long as it would not bring its par
value, this was objectionable, as well in a finan
cial as a legal point of view. The only mode left
was to reserve the ne: profits or earnings, and ap
ply them as realized, for that purpose. This has
been t. one, and the improved condition of the road
and its stock, with the large business now being
done. attest the propriety of this course. But the
recent improvement in the market value of
the stock has rendered\ a change in the policy
of the Company, both proper and just. The
stock can now not only be readily disposed of at
its par value, but being really worth very much
more by an increase of the shares and giving the
stockholders the privilege of subscribing for it at
par, the Company can secure all the funds it may
;require far the proposed enlargement and expan
sion of its transportation facilities, and the stock
!holdere obtain a large ber.efit irom the advance In
its market value above the par. The requisite
funds being thus secured , it leaves the Board free
,to use, the net profits or earnings of the road in
making dividends to the stockholders."
The report'of the committee, and the report of
the President and the Directors were Accepted and
approved by the stockholders.
