WEDNESDAY MORNING Thb Merchant’s Exchange One Yeas Ago— A Contbabt.-—On® year ago yesterday the Mer chant’s Exchange was hahered into existence as one of the institutions of this city. The Board of Trade, established more than fifteen; years ago, after existing in a weak condition for a brief period, proved a fizzle; and some wiseacres were confident that the new arrangement would not last as many months as the other had years. To show that they have been egrcgiohsly mis taken, we need only point to its present flour ishing condition. A part of this different state of affairs is undoubtedly attributable to the greater commercial importance of Pittsburgh now, which makes our merchants take more in terest in such matters; but it is also in a measure owing to the untiring attention of the present Board of Managers, and, particularly, the Super intendent. We need only to refer to the difference between the number of sales reported yesterday, and those reported last 10th of April, 1854, to con vince any one that our business men consider the Exchange a necessary “ institution.” A com parison of prices also presents some striking contrasts. Oae year ago Sapotfme Flour was selling at $6 87} per barrel 11 with a downward tendencynow it is $10.60 and “holders firm.” Corn then brought 69@60; now it goes off- like hot cakes at 95c®$l Then Oats were “heavy” at 40@42c; now they are “Tight”—as the buyer has reason to know-—at 60@65 cents Good Eggs brought only 9 cents n year ago ; they arc now worth 50 per cent, more than that sum. We might multiply instances to show that pro visions have “riz;” bnt wo suppose there are few who will not say, “it needs no ghost to tell ub that ” Ohio and Pennsylvania Railboad Com pany—Adjoubned Meetinq op the Stock holders —The Stockholders of the Ohio and Pennsylvania Railroad. met pnrsuant to ad jaurnment, at Philo Hall yesterday, at 10 A. M. The former officers of the meeting being ab sent, on motion, C. Ehrman, Esq, of Beaver County. Pa., was called to the chair, and Mr. W. 8. Qickoz, of Richland County, Ohio, was appointed Secretary. A letter addressed to the President by the Auditing Committee, appointed at the annual meeting was read, stating that they were not yet prepared to make a report. Whereupon the following preamble and reso lutions were offered by Mr. Jacob Henricl, of Economy, and after discussion were unanimous ly adopted, as follows: Whereas, The Committee appointed to exam ine the books, Touches and accounts of the Ohio and Pennsylvania Railroad Company, have found it impraotioable, from tho immense mass of doc uments and accounts accumulated through a pe riod of nearly seven years, to make their report at this timo, nod desiro farther time to oomplote the auditing of all the accounts from tho first or ganization of the Company. Bt-tolved, That the Committeo be oootinued in order to enable them to bring their labors to a close; and that they be instructed, when their report is completed, to have tho eame printed in pamphlet forar for the information of holders. dissolved, That the Board of Directors bo ia etrnoted to distribute the report of the Commit* toe among the Stockholders and to Beltle with and pay the members of the Committoo for their labor in the Company's service.

The trial occupied tbn morning session, and the Jury, after a short absence, retarned a verdict of guilty. Sentence was deferred uutil Saturday. There was also a chargo of highway robbery pending against tbo same defendants, but it was subsequently withdrawn by the Pros ecuting Attorney, as he stated from the evidence ho bad, it would be impossible to convict them of the offence.

Serious Fire in the Jifth Ward.—Yester day morning, between 1 und 2 o’clock, a fin broke out in a block of three story brick houses, on Liberty street, in the tipper end of the Fifth Ward, near Woods’ brewery, which, before ii was subdued, caused the destruction of the en tire block. Tbo row contained four houses, nnJ belonged to Mea-rs. William aod Christian Sei bert. Two of the bo ises were ocoupied or taverns by John Feldmun and Bernard Deffeo baugb, neither of whom were able to save any of the furniture belonging to tbeir establish ments. A shoemaker named Dolt, and a Ger man, resided m tbe other houses, and man aged to save a portion of their household effects The Jobs on the buildings is estimated at about $BOOO, which ia divided equally between tbo Messrs. Seibert. Tbe baildings belonging t > Mr. William Seibert were insured for SI,COO in the Delaware Mutual Company ; on Mr. Chris tian Seibert’s property there was but $9OO in Burance, in the State Mutual.

A few hours after hia arrival, he went out to parohase goods and sioc< that time has not been heard of. He bad in his possession between $3OO and $4OO in money, and a valuable gold watch. Ilia unaccountable disappearance has alarmed bis friends, wbobatc written to High Constable Richardson to mako inquiries for him. He is a man about five feet six inches high, with auborn color ed hair, slightly bald on the top of tbe hoad, and bad on a black cloth coat and black satin vest. He was never known to be on ii - temperate peraon, or irregular in his habits, and as be had. a large sum of money on his person his relatives fear that he may have been foully dealt with.

The foregoing is taken from the Petersburg (Virginia) Infdliffmccr, and refers to an artlcio which has for a lime been advertised in our columns. We must confess that wo have been somewhat sceptical a 3 to tbo remarkable effects attributed to thi3 famous “ Hair Restorer.” Rut our In credulity lias been greatly shaken within a day or two by B®ring a couple cf certificates of well-known and perfectly credible citizens of the neighboring tewn of Preston—c.n« of them the Cap'ain of a New London whaling ship—to the effect that, in ench of these cases, a two or three months’- use of the Restore,” hud actually brought 0.1 a new and vigorous grewth of hair upon the head where it was before bald—the baldness being, in one case, of more than twenty years standing. Ws do nnt suppose it is by any means cer tain that, because the application has been thus successful in one case, or two, or a dozen, it is thernfore certain to prove oqnally successful in all.
