Dktestioh of tbs Mails.—All tho Eastern

terday, being detained by tho storms.
Newmf tne Day*
It now tores out that tho notorious Copt. Gib
" son, instead of being entitled to tho protection
or the United States Government, is a native of
England. This difficulty puts a quietus to tho
whole affair.
Advices from Chicago say that all thexailroads
in that locality are heavily blockaded with Bnow.
. On the Bock Island road, five locomotives, with
one train, were frozen up solid. On the Chicago
.’and Mississippi Railroad the snow drifts were
tremendous. One, Teao'aing from Lexington a
' distanoe of eighteen miles, is said to be from
three to eight feet deep: In this bank a number
of locomotives have got stuck fast and frozen up
in their attempts to drive through it. The Illi
nois Central BaHfood is utterly impassable as
are also the Galena and Aurora and Dixon roads.
In another/poloma we give the latest from the
frozen trains.
IMMIGRATION OP CONVICTS AND
' paupers.
Tba_armal of late of o number of coimcts
aul paupers from foreign countries, and who ap*
parr to bare been sent over to our shores by the
different governments of Europe, has created a
good deal of discussion and ill-feeling. Very
few newspapers, however, seem disposed to
make this an argument for the. exclusion of all
immigrants. Those who xome of their own freo
choice, at their own expense, with the intention
of becoming will always bo wel
comed by the majority of the American people.
How long they will have to reside in this Coun
try before beooiniug citizens and voters,'is a
question that iB likely soon to excite considers
tie'discussion, and suoh legislation may before
many years be secured as will extend the term
of their residence before naturalization. Eo
that as it may, there can be no difference of
opinion on the subject of foreign governments
■ending their paupeTS and criminals here. Such
an act of a foreign government should be re
lented by our government, as an outrage and an
Insult. And suoh legislation should be had im
mediately, aa will most effectually prevent it.
The honest and industrious poor of Europe, wlo
come here on their own account and free choice,
can find ..employ ment and tho means of pros
perity. But all oonviotsseut by their govern
ments should be returned at the expense of
those governments, and prompt measures taken
to prevent a repetition of tho offence.
- But oven in such cases there seems-to be a
necessity for some discrimination. Shall politi
cal offenders be or returned t Shall
thOße who have unsuccessfully reßißted tyranny
and oppression at home bo cxoluded from our
Shores T Their hatred of- despotism, and their
bold and manly resistance of oppression is their
crime. Shall Americans refuse to such an
aaylum and a home in oar broad and prosperous
land ? Even England is more liberal than that.
.jgf-: England shelters men now who would bo exccu
ted without mercy, could they be caught in Italy,
France or Austria. Kossuth's head is forfeited
in Austria; yet he lives in pencil and safety at
London. Ledru Rollin could not live in his na
tive France. Yet in London he is safe. Thou
sands of political criminals find a safe asylum
'’ in England. Shall such political offenders bo
excluded from our shores t We should not ex
clude them. Wo should not bel ss liberal to
those whose only crime is republicanism, than
monarchical England, or even despotic France,
where Polish refugees have always found safety.
Lafayette was at one time a refugee, and a
price was set upon his head. No bne will Bay
tjiat had he come to this country then, be
should not have been allowed to remain in
safety.
It Is said that tho Sardinia criminals who are
Supposed to be now on their way to this coun
try are merely political offenders, sent out by
their government beoause they are considered
dangerous to the stability and repose of despot
ism. Oar government has despatched a ship to
seize the Sardinian vessel, and eecuro these, po
litical offenders. What shall be done with them
If taken ? Shall the mere fact that tho govern
ment sends thetnbver, be considered a, sufficient
oaußO for forcing them back to their native land,
where severe punishments await* them for
offenees which iirthis country would hot he con
sidered any crime at all T To, complain of the
oppression of the government is a crimo in Eu
rope. Shall suoh bo considered criminals with
ns, and excluded from our hospitalities ?
Such are somo of the questions to be consid
ered in framing any enactments on the subject;
and it will be diffiotflt to • exclude any without
excluding ail who are called criminals at homo.
Bat there oau be no doubt that several of tho
Earopeaa governments, and particularly that of
England, are sending their common offenders,
their thieves and burglars, and their confirmed
paupers, to this country in large numbers, to get
rid of such pests at homo, and such burdens
upon their over-taxed people. Somo of their
periodicals publioly advocate such measures,
and-show: satisfactorily that it has long been
practised. It is time it was stopped, however
difficult it may be to disorimiuato between the
poor man who comes of his own acoord, and the
pauper who is sent at government expense.
The increase of crime in this oountry calls for
strong measures to prevent the oommon crimi-.
nals of the Old World from being sent amongst
us to commit depredations, and endanger the
peaco and safety of eooiety, and double oar
taxes, and our returns of crimo and pauperism.
Whatever the difficulties of they
must be met, and the evil oorreoted.
- We would not exclude a foreigner because he
is poor. Bat we would exclude all paupers
sent by their governments, or by emigration so
cieties. -We would not exclude political rtfugeci,
whose offences would be considered no orime in
this country. But we would sand book all of
fenders sent here by their governments. Oar
land should not become a New South Wales, a
convict settlement, to which European paupers
and criminals may be banished. The pnblio
mind is now fully awakened to this subjeot, and
a remedy for this evil wiU doubtless soon be
applied.

The company he represents, it is isaid, has a
fond of several millions of dollars with which to
commence operations. The organization is to
be, at first, merely that known by tho name of

Fourier will be gradually introduced. Yiotor
Considorant, although a disciple of Fourier, and
has always been placed in tho same category
with Proudhon, “ who believed all property is
robbery," and Barbes, the Danton of the last
Revolution, is nevertheless a much milder maD,
.both in his opinions and actions, than either of
tho Red Republican loaders. In thisoountry,
wo aro of opinion bis radicalism will not do
muoh harm, if it docs no good. Most of the
early conviots have long since abandoned the
new philosophy as entirely unnecessary, and out

cumber the columns of his paper with ponder

Military Force of Pennsylvania.
The report of the Adjutant General represents
the oondition of the militia of this State as in a
very bad oondition. So defcotivo is the law on
tho subject that it has beoame impossible to pro
cure even an ennameration of the militia of the
State. The reports of last year only mako r mjr
militia force 106,957. In 1847 it was 270,070,
Gen. Bowman, the Adjutant General, estimates
the present aotual number of our militia nt 800,-
000 men. A pretty strong army for de
fence when needed. But it is totally disorgani
zed under the existing laws. Gen. Bowman
urges strongly such a revision of the laws as
will secure greater efficiency and discipline in
tho military foroc of tho Btato. From several
counties there are no returns at all. There are
16,663 members of uniformed companies, and
they alone aro well armed and disciplined.
According to the report, there are in tho
Stale 20 Major Generals, 48 Brigadier Generals,
80 Division Inspectors, 48 Brigade Inspectors,
40 General Aids, 20 Division Quartermasters,
48 Brigade Aids, 48 Brigade Majors, 48 Brigade
Quattermnsters, and 366 companies. Of the
latter 35 are set down as cavalry, 60 as artille
ry, 80 os infantry, 63 as rifle corps. Thcso have
47 pieces of artillery, of which 40 arc 6 pound
ers, and 7 aro 4 pounders.
lupnovxHEST. —There is certainly somo signs
of improvement and.reform in our city govern
ment. Various nuisances are being removed
from tho streets ; the drinking houses are goto
rally dosed on the Sabbath; and considerable
signs of life and activity arc manifested by the
public, etreet commissioners, &o. Wo are glad
to see it. But, in on article on this subject the
other day, we mentioned several other things
that ccnld bo dono. Close thc|gambliDg houses ;
pull down broken and dangerous walls, and
keep all the hogs off the streets. Keep a com
plaint book open, and attend to the complaints
-when recorded.
A reform hoe commenced, and wo don't in
tend to let it stop for some timo if we can pre
vent it.
It is alleged by many that Governor Pollock’s
appointment of Thomas J. Power, as Adjutant
General, cannot take effect for eighteen months
yet. It is a three years’ office, and Gen. Bow
man has only held it for eighteen months. He
can only be removed, it is said, for cause. If
such ia the case tho appointment is a littlo pre
mature. But it ia urged ou the other hand that
Gen. Bowman was only appointed to fill the va
oanoy occasioned by tho resignation of his pre
decessor, aiW only for the balance of tho term.
There is tho question. Let thoso decide it who
have got commissions. We are not even a Colonel.

of Pittsburgh bonds, writes to the Ledger of tho

very far below par. He calls on the Finance
Committee of Pittsburgh to make a fall exhibit

Mooting of tbe Pennsylvania Railroad
Company.
Thejmnual molting of tho Stockholders of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company was held on
Mondayjporning, at tho Sunsom street Hall,
Philadelphia. Hon. R. T. Conrad, Mayor of the
city, was called to tho chair, and Samuel Elkin,
Esq., was appointed Secretary.
The annual., report of tho Board of Directors
was read. It gives an encouraging account of
tho business and prospects of tho road. From
it we glean the following details.:
The amount of unfinished work on the second
track is estimated at $1,365,000. Tho cost of
the whole road will not materially exceed the
amount stated in the last annual report of the
Board.
Thero are now on tho road 115 freight and
looomotive passenger engines; 30 wido passen
ger oars, 84 narrow do.; 27 emigrant cars ; 16
baggage oars, with mail apartments ; 1,063 8
wheelod stock oars; 103 Bi-whoeled lumber and
iron trucks; 4G 8 wheeled wood trucks ; and9o
4-wheeled coal cam.
_ The whole number of paßßengers oarried da
ring tho year between Harrisburg and Pitts
burgh was equivalent to 167,100 passing over
the wholo length of the ro9d. Being an inorenee
of 25,864, or nearly 20 per oent. over the pre
vious year.
Tho total earnings from passengers was $l,-
272,681,18, being nu inorease of $222,840,83.
After deducting tolls paid to other roads, ($234,-
787,77.) tbo earnings from passengers will be
$1,067,843,41.
Tho earnings from, freight during 1854 were
$2,020,611,55. Being nn increase over tho pre
vious year of $519,091,05, or 31J per cent.
The through tonnage has been largely in
creased. The tdtal tonnage moved during the
year was 66 6-10 per oont. greater than the yoar
before.

The profits of the road for the year, after de
ducting $670,801,63 interest paid to Stockhold

[Correspondence of tho Dully Morning Posh]
LETTER FRO3I PARIS.
Paris, January 7tb, 1855.
JMy J)ta.T Post:— As ..your numerous readers
seem to take a greas interest in thei affairs- on ?
.this side of the water, Twill give youa few
.items from my own observation. The political
horizon in Europo looks very cloudy; England
hnd France have done nothing before Sevasto
pol, except to bury over 75,000 of their beat
troops; and already the press of England, which
is . not eo oiroumecribed as that of France, iB
crying oat against the government for ineffi
ciency in carrying out the war; talk of achango
of Ministry, and are heaping invectives againtt
Lord Raglan, as unfit for the command of the
army. Bat have they a more competent com*
mander ? I doubt it. The truth is this:
they have discovered that the Russians are too
much for them; and they don’t know how to
back out and save their national honor.
Austria, the most treaoherous government
that exists, has been employed by the allies to
try and patch up a peaco; but tbo haughty Czar
has rejected all their propositions with con
tempt. Austria’s sympathies are with tho
allies, but she fears the Autocrat. Well she
knows that the day she fires her first gun
against a Ruesiau battery, that day ail Hungary
will be up in arms; and, backed by the same
power that crushed, her struggle for independ
ance in 1848, she would triumph over her op
pressors; aod thus, this treaoherous nation
stands botweeo two fires, and dares not unmask
herself. In tho meantime, Eogluud andFranoe
are driven almost to desperation, not only on
account of their sad reverses in tho Crimea, but
onjiooount of the failure of their diplomacy ia
wheedling Austria and Prussia into an alliance
with them. They have lost the flowers cf their
armies, and Bhould they rcplaoo them, and oven
succeed next year in taking Sebastopol, what
will they have accomplished ? Wo may say
nothing. They will have taken one single gar
rison iu the largest and most powerful empire
in the world, and that, too, a thousand miles
from her capitol, aod at a cost of many hundreds
of millions of dollars; and possibly 150,000
as they have already lost more than half
number. To overrun Russia, at tbo same
rate, would be tho work of a hundred years,
even supposing that they could; each year put
an army in tbe field equal to that of last year;
but this io utterly impossible. Evoa now they
cannot replace tho army that has been destroy
ed ; men are scarce, and money much scarcer.
They are daily becoming impoverished, and
mußt coon give up tho fight with humiliation,
la tho meantime, let us look around and take u
purvey of what is going ou outride. France
has been compelled to withdraw from Italy tho
army which she sent there iu 1848, to suppress
republicanism, and Maniim has already pub
lished on eloquent address to tho people of Italy,
arousing them to action.
Greece is only kept in subjection by a French
army, which will soon bo wanted for targets for
tho Russians.
is quietly watching the Cwurao of
events, aud upon his call tho iiuogsrians will
fiy to arms. The Germaa 6tatee will follow, as
in 1848. And the French people, eoareely one
of whom is not in mourning lor tho loss of a
relative or a friend slain upon tho battlefield,
eick aod tired of a war in which they ha to not
tho slightest interest, beyond the gratification ol
ah imbitious Emperor, will rise up and dethrone
the ono who has heaped upon them ail these ca
lamities. 81nco tho revolution in fcpaio, but a
few months ago, there has already been ticveral
changes of Ministry, and there exists in that
country, at tho present time, really no Govern
ment at all; news reached here to cUy of dis
turbances in several of tho provinces, and I
would fiot wonder if it were tho commencement
of another revolution in Spain. Bo that aa it
may, Spain ia in a very unsettled condition, and
another change of Government ia near at hand.
Oat of alt this, one has but little difficulty in
arriving at tho conclusion that there is a revo
lutionary epirit ripening throughout Europe,
which must caon broak out; but what will bo
the result is a profound mystery. Republican
ism will be the cry, but alas, aa much as I be
lieve in the doctrine of ecif government, I doubt
the ability of Europeans to govern themselves.
They need to be trained first, and that training
must be tho work of years. Franco has tried it
twice, and each time fell back into anarchy
worse that before; and yet she is the most en
lightened of all European countries. However,
when tfaoy make the attempt, I certainly wilt be
among tho fim to wish them and a
hearty ** God speed.” Ycurs, ever.

49-Have you a Diseased Diver I—The ques
tion, though startling, is sufficiently suggestive, when the
fact la taken into consideration that diseases of tbo Liver
have become most alarmingly frequent in the United
Stales. Indeed, there *re few formidable diseases that aro
not in somo way traceablo to n deranged state of that im
portant organ. Many of the complaints usually classed
under the head cf Consumption, hayo their origin in tbo
Livor. “Any remedy that would insure regularity and
beaUhrul action in tbe Liver, would bo a blessing to man
kind !” has been tho exclamation of thousands. That
remedy has been found; it is safe and sure. When a fair
trUI has been afforded it, it has never been known to tail.
Reader, have you any disease of the Liver, or disease
which you believe proceeds from bepatie derangement?
Lore not a moment, bnt purchase a box of DR. STLANIPS
PILLS, and they will restore you to health. It is the only
remedy yet discovered, in which implicit confidence may
be placed.
Purchasers will bo careful to wk for Dr. JTLa ne’a Celc
i brated Liter Pills, aud take none else. There ore other
Tills, purporting to bo Liver Pills,-now before the public.
Dr. Liver Pills, also his Celebrated Vermifuge, can
now bo had at all respectable Drug Stores In the United
