The prominent feature in the business of t
Fast year was the almost entire cessation of traffic
in anthracite coal for about seven we. ks in
July and August, caused by differences between
the proprietors of the collieries and the miners
and laborers, relative to the number of hours
which should comprise a day's work and the
compensation therefor. This long Interruption
in the season of business, generally
very active, caused a heavy 1088 of profits, as
the usual stuff of employes were kept in readi
for the resumption of mining operations on
any day. There was partial compensation by
an unusually large traffic, at increased charges,
for the remaining three months, in which the
coal tonnage amounted to 1,394,066 tons, show
ing a capacity for transportation largely in ca
stes of any former period. Notwithstanding this
interruption, the aggregate production from the
three great mining districts of anthracite coal
Was 1,161,864 tons in excess of the previous year,
thus proving that the consumption is steadily
- progreseing.
The proprietors of lands and others interested
ilat More fully developing the northwestern por
tion of the second coal field obtained a charter to
build a railroad, under the title of the Enterprise
Railroad Company, which was offered to this
company on the condition that the work should
be vigorously prosecuted. The offer was ae
cepted, and a road six miles in length has been
constructed, which connects the himehill and
Schuylkill Raven Railroad with the town of
Shamokin. A large coal tonnage will be ob
tained from this district.
A change of ownership of the large tracts of
coal lands in the immediate vicinity of Treverton
and of the railroad from that place to the Basque
bans river, formerly known as.the Treverton
Coal and Railroad Company,now called the Zerbe
Valley Railroad, having occurred, the now pro
prietors tender d a large portion of their produc
tion of coal to es for transportation, provided a
connection with the works of the company could
be made.
Negotiations for three objects were opened,
Which resulted in the I , arelase of their railroad,
Aileen miles in length, including a bridge across
the Susquehanna river for $400,000, payable in
the bonds of this company due iu 1893, with
semi-annual interest of bIX per cent., free from
taxes, This road hue been put in good order to
the point of connection with the Northern Cen
tral Railroad on the east side of thu Susquehanna
riser, at a cost of $27,512 04,
As a part of this negotiation, a railroad eight
miles in length is now bring built to 'ono a con
nection betwren the Zerbe Valley Railroad at
Troverton and the Enterprise Itailro.id at rinamo
kin. When this link is completed, this company
will operate continuous lines of railway from

Philadelphia to the Susquehanna river at Herm- -
don..
An extension of eight 'miles of. the Good Spring
Railroad is, also being built to form a connection
with the summit Branch Railroad at Williams
town. A railroad extends from the last named
place to Millersburg, on the Susquehanna river,
twenty-one, This -connection.-will-give--
this company direct Recess to the large body of
coal lands in Lyken's Valley, which yield a free
burning coal, lintel desired by some for domestic
purposes.
Another railroad, called the Lebanon and Pine
Grove Railroad, is also being built by this com
pany. It extends from Pine Grove,near the west
ern end' of the first anthracite coal field,forty.two
miles, to Manheim,on the Reading and Columbia
Railroad, fourteen miles from Columbia,' on the
Susquehanna river, and passes through the flour
ishing town of Lebanon. The enterprising dil
igent+ of these localities, which are rapidly increas
ing in manufactures and population,nave been de.
pendent for their supplies of coal by a very cir
cuitous route. The construction of this road,
either under the auspices of this company or
other parties, the managers have for many years
past regarded as inevitable. They have there
fore put the grading under contract, payable
one-third in rash and two-thirds hl the plain
bonds of the company, bearing six per cent. in
terest, not secured by mortgage.
Aid has also been given to the Colebrooledale
Railroad on the terms described in the last an
nual report as given to the Perkiomen Railroad.
The road leaves the main line at Pottstown and
passes northeastwardly fourteen miles along the
ore deposits at, the foot of the South mountain.
It was stated in the last report that work had
been resumed on the portion of the Allentown
Railroad between Port Clinton and Topton. In
1860 this company acquired 7,500 shares of the
stock of the Allentown Railroad Company, on
which $2O per share were unpaid amounting to
$150,000, which has since been paid; with this and
similar payments from other stockholders the
prosecution of the work has been continued.
The Perkiomen Railroad, to which reference
was made in the last report, was opened for
traffic in August laet, from the junction with the
road of this company, twenty-five miles from
Philadelphia, to Skippack, tea miles. The re
sults demonstrate the wisdom of extending aid to
develop the rich mineral and agricultural re
sources of the Schuylkill Valley.
The new rolling mill went into operation in
April last, since which 8,971 tons of rails have
been manufactured, with results, so far as they
can be tested front present experience, which
warrant the confident belief that ail the important
advantages anticipated from this investment of
capital will be tally realized.
To provide tor,the payment of the bonds due
in 1870, amounting by the last report to $2,656,-
000, a mortgage dated Ist April, 186 X, payable in
twenty-five years, with interest at seven per cent.
semi-annually, free from taxation, was created,
secured by the entire property of the company,
subject to other prior mortgage liens. An oppor
tunity was given to Oct. Ist last to the holders
of the bonds due in 1870 to exchange them for the
new bonds, after the payment of the coupon due
let of October last, and $2,255,000 were so ex
changed, leaving but $401,600 of the bonds duo
in 1870 to be provided for. For this purpose the
balance of the new bonds will be held.
The foregoing explanations of the changes
which appear in the general account of the
Treasurer, together with the statements in detail
of the opera:lons of the transportation and engi
neer's departments, hereto appended, are it is be
lieved, all that are required.
For the purposes and objects to which refer
ence has been made, and which by the managers
are regarded as of the utmost importance to the
future and permanent prosperity of the company,
a large portion of the profits have been required.
Hence, the July and December dividends wore
made payable in stock.
To some of the stockholders it may be gratify
ing to be informed that on the completion,
during the coming ytrar, of the lateral roads now
being built, the coal fields naturally tributary to
the works of this company will require no more
expensive roads. Many more collieries will be
erected, requiring only short and inexpensive
branches. It may be supposed by
some that a portion of these works have
been constructed somewhat in advance
of the necessities of the public. But it should be
remembered that the land owners were impatient
for revenue, enterprising miners were ready to
make lenses, and if your Board of Managers had
declined to furnish the necessary facilities for
transporting the coal to market, other avenues
would have been sought, and thus the future
prosperity of the cotbpany would have been
greatly and permanently impaired,
By order of the Board of Managers.

On motion, the nominations were closed. The
chair announced that Wm. S. Stokley received 13
votes and Hon. Daniel M. Fox 7 votes.
Mr. Stokley said he felt a-delieacy in assuming
the chair, as he believed that the Mayor, who is
the chief executive officer of the city, should have
been called upon to preside.
Colonel Page Said that when he nominated
Hon. Daniel M. Fox he did it not out of any dis
respect to Mr. Stokley, for he entertained the
highest regard for that gentleman. He had no
minated Mr. Fox because he felt that the Mayor
should be called upon to preside. However, he
had understood that that gentleman did not de
sire the honor, for want of time, and would there
fore move that Mr. Staley be elected president
by acclamation.
Mr. Stokley was conducted to the chair by his
Honor the Mayor, after which the President re
turned his thanks for .the honor conferred..

and for the proper arrangement of the public re
cords pertaining thereto. Agreed to.
Mr. Harper moved that the Chairmen of Select
and Common Councils be appointed a committee
to procure such legislation from Councils as was
necessary. Agreed to.
Colonel Page said that there were but two points
in the ordinance requiring correction, the first
as to the appropriation of $lO,OOO, which is to be
paid out of the tax to be levied for the year
1869, and as the bill was drawn in a hurry, that
matter would have to be settled by making it
1870. The other point is that three months tenet
sufficient time to determine upon plans.
Mr. Walter presented a resolution die ling the
Chief Engineer and Surveyor to prep a plan
of Independence Square, with theextent of
ground occupied by the present dings.
Agreed to.

to about 7,000. Toledo is the Pompeii of
Spain, and abounds in " proutbita" which
deeply interest the seeker after antiquities.
The situation of the old city is remarkably
picturesque, being perched upon a narrow,
rocky,bluff, overhanging a sharp bend in the
river Tagus, with beautiful surrounding land
scapes.
The cathedral is a marvelous pile—one of
the noblest in Spain, which means a good
deal—and possesses treasures valued at seve
ral millions, which are hurriedly shown at
certain times for a reasonable fee. There is
'a curious tradition in regard to this cathedral
which is worth a brief notice. Ono of the
richest chapels is dedicated to St. Ilofonso,an
eloquent conversallst, who flourished 1,200
years ago. This saint was the first advocate
of the dogma of the immaculate conception
of the Virgin; and the Toledana appear to
believe that, in gratitude for this service, the
Virgin mother twice came down from Heav
en and visited the cathedral, on one occasion
bringing with her a finely wrought cassock,
placing it upon the shoulders of the saint.
This event is signalized in a large picture sus
pended in the church, and the very stone
upon which she alighted is mortised into one
of the pillars, and has been kissed for so
many generations that it is now as smooth
and hollow as a porcelain saucer. The gar
ment so miraculously bestowed is preserved
among the treasures of the cathedral at Ovei
do.
Toledo is the most singular, dried ap speci
men of an old city that we have ever seen. It
is almost dead,but it abounds in fine Moorish
buildings, interesting churches and elegant
Jewish synagogues, and it was curious to no
tice that some of the churches were die -
mantled, deserted and given over to ruin, be
ing wholly ngeless for the want of worship
pers to attend them. The streets are too
narrow and crooked to permit carriages to
pass througk them, therefore donkeys are
chiefly employed to carry burdens.
We do not know who had the best of the
' visit, ourselves or the natives. We were fol
' -lowed through the streets by a crowd of peo
ple, chiefly ragged women and children, with
' a liberal admixture of men beggars politely
showing us the way. We wanted a pocket
photograph apparatus, to catch the curious
scene; but alas! the skill of the inventor had
not quite met the want.
We spent a part of one night at Toledo,
simply because we could not conveniently
get away. The hotel was altogether the most
rickety, cheerless, and comfortless that we
found in Europe. We were summoned to be
up at four in the morning to partake of a
breakfast consisting of a cold muddy mix
ture which they called coffee, and a little
hard bread; the butter we could not eat, and
we have not, to this day, the slightest notion
of what material it was composed, but con
cluded from the smell that foreigners must
reside for some years in Spain, and take out
naturalization papers before they would be
able to eat of it.
Breakfast done,we emerged from our chilly
prison house, passing through a pompous
gateway into the streets, to follow the porters
who had our trunks upon their shoulders.
The air cut like a razor; it was pitch dark,and
not a light in the street to cheer our exit, but
we followed on as best we could behind the
iporters, twisting and turning through the
dark, narrow alleys, for nearly half a mile,
until we reached the Tocodover plaza, where
, we found a rickety old omnibus in waiting to
tote us down to the stadia, a distance of
nearly two miles. We were glad to get out
of that dismal spot,which seemed to forebode
evil, and to get a view of a locomotive, the
only civilizing progressive feature we were
able to discover.

How Queen Isabella. Lives in Parisi
(Translated for tio Canclpenatt Commorctal from La
, retiterrassea,_
The Queen occupies the first floor of her new
mansion—that which opens upon the Rue de
Rivoli, while the King consort and Prince of
Asturias live in the rooms looking down,upon
Sat Rue Sainte Ronore. .
The Queen's apartments are the most spa
cious and gorgeous. The first of the suite of
these magnificent rooms is the large white and
gold salon. The hangings are made of crim
son velvet„ and the , furniture beautifully
wrought out of rosewood. Then follows a
small room with red silken hangings and
black walnut furniture. The boudoir, hung
with green velvet and furnished in the most
elegant style, which is adjoining to the bed-s
Chamber, has been transformed Into 'the
Queen's study.
The bed-chamber is hung with dark red
velvet, spacious and very beautiful. The bed,
which: the Queen has brought with ,her front'
Spain, Is moufe of cast- iron,beautifully gilded
and filled , with three , mattresses covered with
red satin. '
Adjoining-the queen's chamber is' another
bed-room which is occupied by her femme
416:au:flare. It ie filled with a number of
clothes-presses and strong boxes, containing
the famous and precious jewels of the Queen.
Her servants call it the diamond room.
Opposite the queen's apartment are those
of the King censoit, ccinsistingof a large and
small Baton, a bed-chamber, and five other
rooms. The Prince of the Asturias lives
with his father, and occupies a pan of these
rooms.
The Queen's bed, as that of the King con
sort, has been brought from Spain. ( But it is
very plain, made of cast-iron, withdut gild
ing, and as narrow as that of a child.
Between the apartments of the King and
those of:the Queen, which communicate with
one another, there is a splendid and very
large dining-hall, with furniture of carved oak
wood and hangings of superb damask.
Breakfast Is served at 8 o'clock, and inva
riably consists of chocolate. At 11 luncheon
is served. The King consort and the Queen
sit down to it alone. After they have eaten,
the Prince of Asturias and his preceptor take
their places.
The little princesses, who occupy the second
floor over the Queen' apartments, likewise
breakfast by themselv es,
Count Espeletta and M. Onlate, . the two
intuit distinguished personages that have ac
cempanied,the royal family to Paris, occupy
the second floor over the rooms of the King
consort. There are, besides, sixty servants
of all classes in the house.
The King consort and Quemdine at f; en
tete-a-tets and are then waited upon by do
inestics in very gorgeona liveries. The table
is excellent and does the greatest honor to the
cook, who is a Frenchman, and, I believe,
even a Parisian. The favorite wines of the
.royal couple are those of the Gironde and
Champagne.
The Querrgoes out but very little, except
her daily promenade of at least two hours at
the Bole de Boulogne; she then returns home,
find, as a general thing, spends her evenings
in her room, chatting with her attendants,
reading, writing, or receiving visitors.
She has not subscribed to any French jour
nal but three or four Spanish papers are
mailed to her indirectly, and she receives, be
sides, an incredible number of letters frotin
all countries, and a great many applications
for audiences.
The Queen wears very fine and varied
toilets. On Sunday, at St. Germain l'Auxer
role she was dressed in a short, but very ele
gant brown silken cloak,and on the day when
she visited her mother, she wore a long robe
of violet satin with white stars.
A. great many visitors try to gain access to
her, but as a matter of course, all of them are
not admitted to her. Her portiere has to
open the front door daily several hundred
times,and to answer questions such as the
following :
"Does the Queen of Spain live here?"
Or:
Queen Isabella at home ?"
At four o'clock the Queen leaves her apart
ments to make her daily promenade at the
Bois de Boulogne. She rides out in her
landau, seated between the King consort and
the Prince of Asturias. •
The King is of short stature and rather
obese, but very strain lit, and possessed of
quite affable manners. He wears a long mus
tache, and his head is inclined slightly to the
left; his face is mild rather than effeminate;
his attitude is more politely reserved and
modest than cold or affected.
lie always wears a black dress-suit and
gloves and appears more like the Queen's
cavalier than her husband. Even in the mid
dle of a painting, hie face and form would at
tract little or uo attention.
The precocious embonpoint of the Queen
has been somewhat exaggerated, and 1 find
that it does not lessen very much her natural
grace and majesty.
Her type is that of a Bourbon. regular,but
somewhat too heavy.
When she descends the broad staircase of
the house,hanging on the King consort's arm,
the step is slow, almost solemn, and her face
serious, almost stern.
You look atter. She is still the Queen.
Suddenly a broad, honest smile brightens her
face and lessens the hard expression of her
features. She has just perceived the Prince
-of Asturias, -and is now nothing:but a mother.
She enters the carriage, and a few Span
iards, nearly all of them belonging to the
popular classes, have hastened to her, greet
ing her bareheaded and in the mast respectful
manner. Isabella bows to them with visible
emotion and smiles mournfully. Such are
the thanks of the exile.
'lsabella's mobile and open physiognomy
renders very perfectly in these few minutes
this three-fold air of the Queen, the mother
and the exile.
The Prince of Asturias is a nice boy, lively
and sharp, though some say just the reverse
of him. He wears a gray paletot and hat,and
white necktie. He is ten years old. Happy
age which laughs at exile and all the other
Ittiadries of life. , Has he not his toys, his ar
mies of leaden soldiers, and quite a people of
wooden and pasteboard men?
He seems to like Paris, and believes, per
haps, that his mother has made a pleasure
trip to the capital of France.

Commissioner of Internal Revenue.
Special Despatch to the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.]
VVAiIIiLNUTON, Jan.ll —Alexander Cummings's
friends are leaving nothing undone towards
securing his confirmation as Commissioner of
Internal Revenue.
He has a powerful lobby at, work, and the regu
ar app fiances are freely wed to obtain success.
Senator Cameron is pressing Cummings's name,
but a careful canvass of the Senate leaves no
doubt but that he titill , be rejected by a large Ina
jo ri ty
It is noticeable that persons here who are well
known members of the Whisky Ring are advo
catine Cummings's confirmation, and this of
itself would defeat him before the Senate, if
there were not other matters regarded as more
important.
From Wastkington,
N,A simiGrox,Jan.ll.---Tlic.Baldmore and Poto
mac Railroad is now under contract for zrading,
and workmen are engaged along its entire length,
and it is expected that the road will be com
pleted by the first of January, 1870. This will
afford two lines between the South and Balti
more.
The city is more than ever infested with bur
glars and other kinds of thieves. On Saturday
night, two wooden boxes mailed from Richmond
on that day, one for Baltimore and the other
for Philadelphia,were taken from the mail wagon
which conveys the Southern mail from the Poto
mac boat to the City Post Office and the Balti
more station; and a mail bag was also stolen from
the mailing room of the Post-office. The bag and
the empty boxes were found in an alley near the
office, all the letters having been carried away
except about a dozen, among which were two
money.order advices, one money-order, and sev
eral drafts for money, which the robbers doubt
less did not desire to present for payment.
Yesterday morning a keeper of a boarding
house, named Anson Gale, in being discovered
robbing a tea store on his premises, made his
escape, but took strychnine and died in a half
hour afterwards.
NEW YORk, Jan. 11.—A fire at Phelps, Ontario
