MONDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 1866, ATLANTIC AND_ GREAT WESTERN RAILROAD. It will be remembered that in the course of the recent argument before Justice Read, of the Supreme Court, in the case of the Philadelphia and Erie and Pennsylvania Railroads against the Western Central,the Atlantic a.n.d Great Western and the Catawissa Railroad companies, an earnest effort was made by the counsel for the defendants to prove that the agreement for the con solidation of the lines of the Atlantic and Great Western Railway in the States of New York, Pennsylvania and Ohio, had been practically filed in the State Department at Harrisburg, though unable to produce the certificate of.tho Secretary_ of the Commonwealth to that effect,, which certificate the law special ally requires shall be the evidence of such filing. The following letter from the Hon. >Eli Slifer, Secretary of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, which was written a friend. In Lewisburg, explains the circumstancesof the alleged filing, but proves: not 'only that the agreement was not _filed, but that the law itself, under which it was proposed to consolidate the interests of the coin pally, is wholly worthless for the pur pose designed, notwithstanding the alleged expenditure of thirty thousand dollars by the agents of the company to procure its passage through the Legisla ture of Pennsylvania. The following is the letter of the honorable Secretary: HARRISBURG, Pa., January 23 ISM- -You inform me there is much criticism as to my coursein not filing certain railroad agreements presented at my office by the Atlantac'and Great Western railway. I think it the question was understood there would ba no nom- , plaint by our people,as I presume there Is none on the partof the railroad company, for, since my refusal, the company tendered me such a position as to assure me of their confidence and friendship. The facts in the case are as follows : The "agreement between the Heading, Catawissa, Lewisburg and Spruce Creek, and Atlantic and Great Westeraral'ways was never subniitted to me for filing. The agreement which I refused to file .(presented in the latter part of the summer) was one that would e.ve passed through the northwestern part ef oar 19tate. The matter Offline was not a mere whim with m 4, but a matter of law and instruction from the At. terney , General. There has for some years been a law allowing reli ned s of tnis state to merge. Last year a law was passed intendingto allow foreign corporations to merge with roads within the State. In the transcribing of that bill in the Legislature a whole line was left out, and one that was essential to the bill. This error was not discovered until after the bill was signed and the `Legislature adjourned. Then the attorney of the At lantic and Great Western Company came and pointed. out the error himself, saying that the bill was entirely worthless without the insertion of what bad been omitted by an officer of the Legialature. I, of course, could not correct the error of the Legislature. If a Secre•ary of the Commonwealth could change a law atter it has been certified to him as correct by the com paring . committeea of both houses, and signed by the Governor, the safety of the records would be at an end. Yet oh this bill.soknowledged by their own attorney to be worthless, they presented an agreement. I was compelled by law and the express instructions of the tt.rney General, to whom all important - law ques tions are submitted, to decline putting it en record. IS, for the discharge Of thkeplam duty, which 1 could not pave avoided without either. in - the: first .place tampering with the records (an act that would nave been a misdemeanor in office), or in the eecend, set ting np my opinion against that of the Attorney Gene ral on a:question of law, which no Secretary, and in deed, ricp Governor, has ever done, .I am to he bunted down and traduced, be, it so. I would, of course, not break over this icipg establisbed custt rn of deference to the opinion of the lawtofficer, especially when a man of such eminent moral purity and great legal ability as the Hon. Win. M. Meredith holds the place of Attorney General. The bill 1 refer to is the one for the passage of which thirty thousand dollars was held here in tae hands of borers, a great part of which, however, they were compelled to disgorge to the parties whom they have deceived. Had I chosen to re insert what its friends alleged was a fatal omission, perhaps the same friends who now blame me for not acting without law would have been more unmeasured in their denunciations for making a law over the heads& the Legislature and the Governor, especially those of them who think men never act without pay. I am anxious that the community should know the* facts in the case, and whilst I should be glad to have , the goad opinion - of all, the conscintisness of having raityfully performed my duty I regard of such price that,l would not barter it for momentary applause. The remarkable 'facts which this letter' exhibits, and the position in which it placee.the Atlantic and Great Western CoMpany cannot fail to arrest the atten , . tioh of all interested in the bonds of that corporation. , It would seem very cer . tarn in the first place that the at tempted consolidation of the Atlantic and Great Western Railway interests has proved'a failure In every legal point and if or view; and that; be so, what kind of security will, ths: purchasers, of any of their new bonds on . the basis . ,of thirty milliorus,have for moneys - interested in them? - - Acond.--Flo.ve the' holders of the original bonds of the comPany, based on their lines either, in the StkteS. of New York, Pennsylva nia - and Ohio,-who-have surrendered theinand accepted the new 'issue, in what was sitkiosed byTtlirern — W be' a - consolidated* line,-' any security' •Nlytteyer for the xnoneys contributed years since? Third.--If the Atlantic and Great Western Comp - any continue to lease roads on the basis of their recent lease of the Catawissa road,: paying at the' rate of $l,OOO per day for the use of a road the net earnings of which in all its past history have not averaged $2OO per day, what kind of security are either the old or the new bondholders likely to, have for any investments they , have' made or may make in either the old or the new issues? Fourth.—A careful analysis of the re-' ceipts and expenditures of all the lines constructed, leased or operated by the' Atlantic and Great Western. Company, might, perhaps, astonish many inno cent bondholders, 'who now look upon the investment as certain to be interest',. paying ,from the net earnings of the Company. To get at the result fairly they should deduct all revenues belong-. ing,.to other lines which may have been included as gross earnings in the , receipts for through traffic, ang. if 'to the ne.t - fmount so resulting they add all the lo*l receipts, they will have • the real gr o ss earnings belonging to the Omn i. pony.- From this total there should be deducted the expenses of operating the roads, whether owned or leased, and all the incidental expenses of the Com- , pany, including amounts paid for losses Of other roads, the organization in,New-York and London, legal fees to a host of lawyers, and heavy premiums and discounts upon'the sale ofsecurities an'ii loins of money secured by the hy pothecation of the bonds of the Com pany. With all these items taken fairly into account, the confiding bondholder, whether in America or in Europe, may find that even with the unprecedented prices . jeceived for transportation and large profits realized by many of our economically constructed lines during the war, the net revenue to meet the ordinary. interest on bonds will, perhaps, not be sufficient to pay his reasonable claim. It might also be well for the bondholders and other creditors to ascertain what their pros pects will be when the business of the country assumes, as it' must most pro pably within another year, the basis of rates for transportation current before the war, which were not more than fifty per cent of those realized during the war. An abatement has already been made of at least thirty-five per cent. on all through transportation,upon the rates current one year ago, while the expense of labor and materials, essen tial to the operating of railroads, has not declined an average of five per cent. Fifth.—For the purpose of constructing and equipping roads at the present tinie it will require at least from two dollars to two dollars and a half for every dollar that would have been required previous to the war. It is evident, therefore, that a line of road constructed and equipped now, from means to be derived exclu siVely from the sale of bonds bearing seven per cent. interest in gold, though they realize par for such bonds in our currency, must be able to meet all the competition of the four leading trunk lines constructed years ago, and yet earn a net amount sufficient to pay at least from 14 to 171 per cent., in gold, on what would be the actual value of its property as a competing road in ordinary times. And if this amount of earnings is re qUired to meet the demands or the bond holders, what hope can any stockholder have during the present generation for earnings or dividends to accrue to him? Moreover, in view of the competition of other trunk lines, with their local lines constructed and their local business ae veloped, can the bondholder be at all confident that his interest can be fairly earned and paid? All the trunk lines which will be com petitors of the Atlantic and Great West ern road have been constructed with hard dollars; paid for their capital, and more than equal in amount to their en tire bonded debt, whih affords a sound and good basis for the security of their bondholders. Have the stockholders of the Atlantic and' Great Western Com pany ever contributed even five per cent. of the amount of its bonded debt, AL bona fide cash for capital stock issued? Or has nearly its whole capital stock been created and given to contractors or others as bonus or profit on work thine or for services supposed to be rendered ? If the Atlantic and Great Western Conk pony can succeed on their pregent basis, then all the prominent lines of America must prove to their stockholders much more remunerative than the most san guine have ever anticipated. THE NEXT GOVERNOR. The time is approaching for the meet in of the National Union State Con vention, which is to nominate a candi date for Governor. There is no very "energetic movement in favor of any prominent Philadelphian, and the probabilities are that a gentleman frOm the interior of the State will be nomi- Mated. Of the several very goodnames .brought forward, we do not hesitate ,to • express a preference for Hon. James K. Moorhead, of Allegheny, who has!re presented his - district so long and so.well in Washington. - He is well-known here and in all parts, of the State, and he hai every qualification that the office requires: intelligence, integrity, ex perience inpublic affairs and thorough devotion to the interests of Pennsylva nia. HIS record during the four years'of rebellionvas all that could, be desifed;' , for he stood manfUlly. by the GovetriX. THE _away EVENINte BULLETIN : P ment, and gave bountiful practical- aid thAoldiers,of .permsylvania. --Daring the next few-years efforts will bet made to cut down =the :tariff and damage the interests of 'this State. it is important, therefdre; that the executive' should be ..8 man .who will not. only represent the great .manufacturing and mining industries of the State, 'but will have such practical•knowledge of them as:will. enable him to represent them with effect, and such a man is; General Meorheild. He is a practical manufac turer, and as such he has been a' faith ful and efficient guardian of the interests of ;our State in the Committees, of Ways and Means .and of Manufactures, of which he is a member. He is a man of the people, and has made himself what he is by hard work and steady devotion to the interests of the people of Penn sylvania. If he should be nominated, he would bring out the whole strength of his party in every part of the State, beSides getting the votes of thousands of honest Democrats, who know his solid good sense, his sterling integrity and hiS fidelity to the interests of the State. THE ACADEMY OF NATURAL SCI ENCES. If for no other reason than the abol ishingof a terrible eye-sore, the commu nity ought to rejoice over the prospect of, a new building for the Academy of Natural Sciences. Thepresentbuildirtg, occupying a most prominent location on Broad street, is probably the - -ugliest structure ever . erected in Philadelphia. It's architectural deformity is of the most painful: kind and, there ie - no curiosity. within its walls so remarkable as the buildirigwithin which such stores of rare and curious things are trbasured. A movement has been set on foot to replace this brick-and-plaster monster by a capacious and handsome structure which will be an ornament to the city and will enable the Academy to enlarge its usefulness, and to carry forward its operations in the cause of science with greater success than can possibly be at tained with its present cramped and, crowded accommodations. The Acad emy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia has been in existence for more than fifty years and ftw scientific institutions in America have accomplished more or obtained a higher reputation at home and abroad. It contains more than two hundred thousand objects of interest, forming a museum which, if prop erly arranged for exhibition, would rival the finest scien tific collection in the world. The magnificent collection of birds is well known to our citizens, and is by far the most complete and beautiful in America, while it has only one or two competitors in Europe. A library of thirty thousand volumes of scientific works is open to any person for consultation who may be introduced by a member of the Academy. The society includes a large number of the best representatives of every branch of scientific knowledge, and the benefits to any refined and cul tiVated community of such an institution cannot be easily over-estimated. It is now proposed to erect a fire-proof building of a -handsome design and of sufficient capacity- to allow fuller scope for the operations of the Academy, and to provide suitably for the magnificent museum which is now suffering actual damage for want of room. The sum of one hundred thousand dollars is needed for the purpose,and a committee of forty gentlemen has been appointed to solicit subscriptions for this praiseworthy pur pose. A considerable portion of the amount has already been subscribed and we hope that our public-spirited citizens will respond cordially and liberally to a project, the success of which will add another imposing ornament to Philadel phia and tend to increase the high scientific reputation which this city already enjoys. LLOYD'S MAPS.—We have received from Mr. J. T. Lloyd, of New York, copies of his large Map of North America, and of his To pographical County and Railroad Map of the British Isles. They are both the best maps we have seen of their respective coun tries, and are sold at remarkably low prices. The Map of the British Isles is accompanied by an index to the railways in operation up to the present time, all of which are deline ated. Mr. Lloyd is preparing to publish a Map of the United . States and Canada, that will be very important to business men and very valuable to all classes of people. In addition to the ordinary features, it will show every railroad and railroad station, every telegraph line and station, every place where there is an express office and post office. All the battle-fields of the late war will alto be indicated. The greater part of the expense of this publication is met by large subscriptions from the rail road, express and telegraph companies, so that it will be sold to the public at the very low price of $3.50. The names of hotel- keepers, merchants, manufacturers,farmers and others who subscribe, 'will be put down in their proper places on the map, so that it will prove to be a sort of directory and an advertising medium. Mr. Janies E. Chute,: agent for Philadelphia subscriptions, is now in the city, with full written authority . from Mr. Lloyd.
