11 entertain the
:est in a Protec
tire r olicy,_ for the common good of the
whole country, is above the consideration:of
mere party differences, and we shall. there
fore.. rejoice in , the adoption of Protective
principles, whether effected by one party or
the other.
There is one consideration, however, that
seems to be entirely lost eight of by our Lo.
eofoco friends in their Tariff efforts, an i d that
Is the reciprocity of interests between the dif
ferent States. Bow can it be expected, in
these days of political compromise, that
other States will join to bless Pennsylvania
with a system of 'national policy, in which
they have no part nor lot, and which, more
over, twist operate directly to their disadvan
tage, unless-they be admitted tosqual ben
efits? If Iron and Coal only be protected.
Pennsylvania is exclusively benefited, while
the Cotton, Woolen, and other manufactures ,
of neighboring States, suffer in proportion to
the increased prices of Iron and Coal, which
we alone can furnish them. A friend, late
from Washingtdo, and well acquainted with
the views of prominent members of Congress,
gave us precisely this , view of, the subject
some dais ago. - He says it will be next to
impossible to secure protection for Iron and
Coal, unless like advantages are conferred
upon the staples of other States. This is
the true policy—a Protective Tariff system
to be of real benefit to the country, must ap
ply equally as well, as fiir as.possible, to all
- branches of businem and in all States alike.
The most sensible proposition we have
seen on this subject, is that of Gen. James,
Senator from Rhode Island. The General
was elected as a Locofoco, but being a large
manufacturer, he is.. strongly tinged with
Protection-isrn, and hence] has been recog-*
nised in Congress as a Locofoco member
with Whig principles. He proposes to ;in
crease thi-duues on all manufactured articles
of finer texture, or where much labor is -re
quired in their production, Iron, Coal, Wool,
Cotton, k.c.-; and a proportionate decrease on
those of a coarser description, or. on those
which cost but little labor. This strikes
at the primarY object of Protection, viz.; the
proper appreciauon of lab;r. It would give
our working men employment, and amply
pay them for their services. We shall have
something to say on this subject again.
KIDNAPPING CASE
The recent Eidnapping,Case in West No
'thing-ham township, Chester County, has
caused much excitement in that vicinity and
also to Bald:note. Mari . land, where, it is al
leged, the tugitive belon'ged. The - facts of
4'ae case are briefly these : Eliza Crocus, a
alleged to belong to a Mrs. Dick
-I,llOrt, ran away iu company
with others in 19-16. Rewards were
offered f,. : r recovery. and a Mr. 7bl'Crea:
ry of.Elnun. Maryland, authorized by a
power o.n -a., tu arre-4 them. Nothing.
Was, however, heard of Eliza, until recently,
when Mr. M. said he had heard of her where
abouts from one of the others whom he had
previously arrested. lie accordingly proceed
ed to Chester County to the residence of a
Mr. Miller, and carried off the air( in a car
nage. Miller and others pursui'd and over
took M'Crear) and his party with the girl in
Baltimureshe was in jail. M'Creary was
arrested on a charge of kidnapping: On the
return of ,the Chester County party: Miller
was - missed at the Baltimore depot, and on
the morning after, Ist iust., was discovered
deed, hanging toa tree, near Stemmer's Run,
in Baltimore County. A jury of Inquest was
summoned .and, after examination, a verdict
of suicide was rendered. Since that, Gov.
Lowe, from certain information received re
specting the probable murder - of Miller, or
dered the disinterment of thE body, and a se
cond examination. This was aucordingly
done—the body conveyed to Baltimore on
Fnday of last week, and the examination of,
the body and trial of the case hare been pie,-
.secuted during the week
There has been some hard sweating on
both sides. Several of the Baltimore Wimes
sea swear positively to the identity orilic
girl, as the runaway slave of Mrs. Dickeliat,
while those from 'Chester County swear to
her being free, having Imown her frum in- I
fancy in West Nothingham township. :Mel
physicians,-alter a very careful examinition,
discovered no marks about the bixly., that
would indicate violence, except a slight in
dentation on each wrist, which might-or
might not have been produced by the deceas
ed himself. A second verdict of suicide Was
accordingly rendered. Mr. 'Miller's , sanity
was fully putven:
The trial was concluded on Wednesday
hist by , the discharge of M'Creary. lie was,
however, immediately arrested again on the
charge of false imprisonment, bur wilt,
—no_dorti;t, soon be released, as the testimony
is strongly in favor of the girt Ellis — being
.Mrs.Dickehnt's fugitive slave.
EXPORTS AND IMPORTS
The amount of foreign Exports of specie, a
theport of New York, for the year 1851,was
$42,723,209, the Imports only 1.2,049,585,
'exclusive of the amount received from Cali
fornia, $43,671,432—5h0wing that Nr. York
exported all its California specieand $51,777
besides, or within $1,997,7t , 8 of the Imports
from all the World at that port.
The Imports of specie at Eicistoii to the'
year 1851, were $730,491, of which t'-627,-
708 were gold and 8102,783 silver. The Ex
ports were $3,822,1:3, of which $3,505,550
were American gold and silver, and E16,-
813 foreign gold and silver.
FroM the tables of the New York Dry
Goods Reporter, it appears that the amount
of Imports, Silks, Wollens, &c. , at that port,
for one week, ending last Thursday-week,
- was $1.019,256: ,withdrawn 8101,269, ware- i
housed 8202,038—making the total amount
thrown, into the market for that week $l.-
120.555. This, compared with the cones

`11549i4-1, in the amount thrown upon the

Some of the items thus exhilked require a brief
eiplanatfen. It willl not fail to bi observed that the
average freight upon Coal has teen reduced from
51 53i (the average charge in 1850) to 1 221, or
31 cents per ton. The causes sullich led to this re
duction, and which inilueneee the Managers to
adopt it, are proper to be submtled to your consid
erafim. As you are well awire, there are three,
principal regions competing in the production and
transportation of Anthracite Cal—the Lehigh, the
Lackawana, and the Schuylkill These who were
interested in the success of tie latter, were anx
iously desirous that some mune!. good understand
ing should exist with referene. as well to the
quantity mined, as to the charge of its transportation.
Every proper effort.as =Ater. secure this result,
bet it was:uaderstood that thine interested in the
other coal fields were derermind to lend no aid to
effect any arrangement, but wilted vigorously con
duct their works, command, afar as possible, the
whole market, and leave to the 4Chyliall region only
to supply so much as the othei might be unable to
mine or transport. The Schuylkill Coal region had
therefore supplied more than out-half of the Anthra
cite Coal consumed. To acquilsee, or to submit to
the policy thus suggested, antlto maintain at the
same time high charges foie taasportation, to the
opinion of the Maiagers, wield have encouraged
and fostered new eaterprisesterewhere, and proved
disastrous to the operators in 'be Schuylkill region
with whom this Company has a common interest,
and upon 'whose prosperity end well doing they
must ever depend. Nor were be Managers willing
that the region in which this Company was inter
ested should be placed in the position of being call
ed upon to supply that quanity only. which the
other regions might be finales to produce and de
liver.
Confident in the, ability of tie work to maintain
its accustomed position, the Metagere decided that
they would so adust their clines as to command
the usual proportion of the tide. Before, how
ever, giving pinlicity to the course upon which
tbey had deteruiined. arrangemmts were made with
the parties occupying the wharves at Richmond, to
secure the large tonnage of the year. Shortly after
these negotiations were compitted. the Schuylkill
Navigation Company made extraordinary reduc
tion m their charges for tots. and adopted the
course of receiving scrip (purchasable at a large
discount) in payment of tolls, es the Lehigh Coal
and Navigation Company had theretofore done in
payment of coil.
In this connection, the Mangers cannot refrain
from expressing their apparel:llion of the fidelity
with which the operators tifilled their engage
ments; although they were impelled, for some
months, to pay od a very l*e tonnage at least
twenty-five cents per ton more than the charges on
the canal.
A reduction was also main in the charges for
transportation of mereliandue.msd the fare for pas
sengers was reduced to about bree cents per mile.
The increase over the prevails year in coal trans
ported over the road is 298,764 tons, and the num
ber of passettgers and quantityof merchandise have
augmented in about the same iroportitin.
The cost of transportation fee the year has been
diminished thus:
On coal, 7 31-100 per ton.
" merchandize, 5 70-100 "
" passengers, 17 49-100 per through pasties
The experiments to introduce the use of anthra
cite coal for locomotives, and to which reference
was made in a former repon..have resulted sue
ceeafully. The engines cousincted by Ross Wi
ning, hem., of Baltimore, have now been so long
in service as to remonstrate tint this , coal can be
find with sweets and econony. An engine con
structed by Mr. James (master ma
chinist of the Company,) and serene boilers altered
under his direction, exhibit tbs same result. . Es
perzence alone can determine which of these im
provements best attains the tad, but both have
proved sufficiently successful tc, leave it no longer
doubtful that anthracite coal wi I he adopted for use
in the locomotives of the Corrpany.: lt need not
be stated that this result is of gave importance.
The
_gradual increase in the cost of Wel, to which
the Company have of necessitt been subjected, is
at once arrested, and it affords a new end extensive
field for the use of anthracite coal, which must tend
still further rapidly to increase is consumption
The Renewal Fund ham been subjected to the
extraordinary charges referred to in the last annual
report, for the completion of thepermanent repairs
'rendered necessary by the unexampiled freshet of
the previous tear; and also to large outlays so made
as to avert the evil consequences of a recurrence
of such disasters. •
The Managers believe tint es the fund appropri
ated for renewals is ample for all ordinary purposes,
and as these salutary improvements hive been made
to guard against serious damage by freshets, that
the balance of 518,7 la 29 to the debit of this ac
count, will be repaid by the usual appropriation of
the.coming year.
No new locomotives have been purchased during
The past year from this fund, as ten! first-class en
gines had been obtained during the preceding one.
The business of the year has been increased about
twenty-five per cent. There has been no charge to
capital account for machinery. No 'stronger proof
can he given, that it has fully mainthined its effici
ency.
The alloivance charged to this fund, paid to the
Mount carbon , and Port Carbon Railmd Company,
was to compensate them in pert for extraordinary
expenditures to repair the damages sustained from
the freshets, of 18a0, in the shortest possible time,
and thus give to this Company the use of a large
portion albeit nuichinery, , Which would otherwise
have been detained many days above Mount Car
boo, alike detrimental to the interests of the Com
pany and to the public.
It may not he kianwn to many of the proprietors
of this work, that at the termination of the Road at
Mount Carbon, the Valley of the Schuylkill is so
narrow that the space required for large engine
houses and workshop; is not to be obtained, and
that these facilities are furvished to this Company
by the Mount Carbon and Port Carbon Railroad
Company, which onowects at Mount Carbon, and
extends thence to Port Carbon, a distance of two
and a half miles. To secure them, this Company
payee annual sum of about 525,000. These tracks
and improvements are essential to the business of
this Company, and the Managers suggest that they
should be authorised to lease this road and works
connected with it, for a long time, or, if more ad
vantageous terms can be had by a purchase, that
they should be authorised to make it.
A Table, showing the number of accident., and
also the number of rails removed from the tracks, is
here submitted. (We omit details.) ,
lIECATITTLATION.
From July Ist to-December Ist, 1848, 1 ear bro
ken'for every 1485 tens aeon carried.
la the year 1849, 1 car broken for every 2282
tons of coal carried.
In the year 1850, 1 car broken for every 2490
tons of coal carried.
In the year 1851, 1 car broken for every 3114
tons of coal carried.
STATEMENT OT HAILS REMOVED ISOM THE THACKS.
In 1848, 1 bar of iron removed for every 2138 tons
of coal carried.
In 1849, 1 bar of iron removed for every 314 tone
of coal earned.
In 1850,1 bar of iron removed for every 332 tons
of coal carried.
la 1851, 1' bar of iron renioved for every 279 tons
of coal carried. '
That the efficiency of the machinery is fully
maintained, is here further exhubited by the fact
that the number of cars beaker or damaged bye
reabon of defects is leas, and that the cost of keeping
them in repair is also diminished. The eompara
tier increase in the number 'of nits removed IS, its
part. attributable to the enormous business of the
last few mouths of the previous year. This incon
siderable inn? of expense, however, is still within.
the former estimate, and, as superior rails are sub
stituted for those removed, this item may in a few
years, diminish, es experience (on this road, at
-least) proves that it is the quality of the iron rather
thin the weight of the rail, that ensures durability.
The loss of life on the Road is deeply to be de
plored, but it has resulted from causes beyond the
control of the Company, or its officers. Three of
those killed were employed on the road, and the re
maining Ma were SITIMMTS, improperly trespassing
on the track, and generally ir. *state of tatoxication.
Great efforts . have been made, and Many Precau
tions used,, to WWI and to prevent all persons from
walking on the roadway. It Is much to be regret
ted that these timely noneesare so constantly disre
garded, and it would seem to requite some 1
to protect both the thoughtless "
and the CoMpany, from the ccusteuencea of such
conduct. ,
By reference to the statements exhibiting the ac
counts of the workshops, it will be observed .that
they continue effectually to diminish the enemies,

The entire cost of this work, and improver..—

purchase are already clearly exhibited, inasmuch

The Managers, have not yet availed thernielves
of the authority given at yourilast Annual-Meeting
to dispose of Bonds or other securities amounting to
$350,000, to meet the instalments then coming doe
to the State, and for renewals and improvements of
this . road. With the knowledge that the interest
for the whole year on the entire debt of the Com.
piny had been realized prior to the 31st July last,
they felt that it would be an unjustifiable sacrifice to
dispose of Bonds abbe current market prices. Tney
regarded it as far the better policy to snake some
temporary sacrifice to obtain the meansto meet those
engagements, and especially, as they cannot yield
I
their conviction that the public, must very soon ap
preciate the intrinsic value of these securities.— I
This belief has its origin in two facts, the one, that
the use of the article upon which their value de
pends, is not of choice but of necessity, augmenting
in its consuniption with allthe improvements of the
age; and the other, that experience has demonstra
ted that it can be delivered by this Company to the
consumer, at less cost than by any other work.
The instalments to the Stale,whieh have matured,
end the renewals of the road and bridge, amount to
11224,470 97. The remaining payments, for which
the notes or the Company have K..= given, arc $99,-
712 46, which mature in ten monthly payments.
As by this purchase a large economy in the ex
pense of transportation has been annined,it has been
deemed proper that theexpense of obtaining the re
quisite funds should be charged to the income ac
count of the year, and this accordingly has been
done. _ . . . .
Tne Assets of the aottipany have been again val
ued. There has been some depreciation in a por
tion of them; while othersare enhanced in value.—
The accruing interest, however, has not been suffi
cient to meet interest paid, and to cover this defici
ency, and provide for anydepreciation of the assets,
it has been deemed properto appropriate the surplus

The Stock and Bonds held by the Company consist
chiefly of those Bonds 'payable In 1860, which were
appropriated In 1849, to settle the then !Mattes debt.
For reasons already slated, the Managers have not
thought It proper to dispose of these securities.
The increase of floating liabilities amounts to 41568-
222 34 cents, which is represented by the following

The very great increase in the business of the Com
pany tendered it apparent that, for immediate use.
and to meet the future demand, more track room at
the terminus of the road at Richmond was necessary.
and especially would It become essential, when new
wharves on the present unimproved riser front at
that depot were erected. It his not unfreauently oc
curred that, in the moat active season, every siding
it this point has been filled with cars, and more than
two miles of the main twit required to be appropri
ated for the same pirpose. To those who arc familiar
with the very rapid
,growth or the Borough of Rich
mond, and particularly In the immediate vicinity of
the impmvements of. the Company. it need nut be
elated, that the delay of one year would add most
materially to the cost of the ground required for inch
purposes, and thole who are not thus familiar with
this subject need only be reminded that, If publicist
notion had been. called to the absolute necessity of
such additional track room, the east of acquiring It
would have born materially Increased.
The' Managers, therefore, felt it 'heir duty to as
sume the responsibility of securing additional ground
in the extent of fifty feet In width, for track,' from'
(he whams' to the engine house, a distance of about
one and a quarter miles.
Induced by the same reason, and influenced by the
resolution of the stockholders, at their last annual
Meeting, directing iMprovements on the railroad pur
chased of the Commonwealth, they have secured suf
ficient ground for a large passenger and merchandize
depot, at the corner of Broad and Willow streets.
which, when Improved by the erection of suitable
buildings, will enable the company to start the trains,
with the locomotive attached, from the very heart of
the city, and entirely avoid all the expense and delay
necessarily incident to the use of hinge-power. This,
even with the present passenger and merchandise
business, is most desirable : but, If it 13 permitted to
look forward to the completion of the 'great lines of
road now projected, to eonnect the works of this Com
pany with others extending to , to the com
pletion erne Inbation Valley R ai lr oa d . the connect
ing link at Reading with the Pennsylvania Railroad,
extending from Harrisburg to Pittsburg, and thus,
with various lieu westward, the policy and necessity
of securing such advantages for present and future
purrs.ses cannot be doubted. A few months might pre
vent their being obtained at all. except at such exag.
gerated pricey as those prospects would command.
The Mennen are, however, able testate that if the
itegniaition of this teal estate does not meet your heat-
ty approval, It can be at once disposed of wlthout lova;
It could not be again purchased an as favorable terms.
Should it, however, meet approbation, gtovision I
should be made for its payment.
Monte few lots of ground at other pointe. which the I
Company had heretofore leheed, were offered (or sale

These purchases amount to 690,116 06; independent

The bonded debt of the Company Is reduced by the
investment of the sinking fund $117,800, there having
been over invested in previous years 114,976 94.
The Managers. not having disposed of the bonds or
other securities, authorized at yout last annual meet
ing for the reasons already assigned, and having oh.
taleed the very valuable real Pattie heretofore refer
red
to. the Company la thus left with en Increased
floating debt, and the Important question naturally
arose as to the ;roper disposition ofthe surplus profit.. I
Two years since, it was adopted se the permanent
policy orthe Company that the profits should be •n.
totally divided. It wee then determined that, even if
the assets did not equal the foaling debt, other Provi
sion should be made for Its payment, rather than re
sort to the appropriation of the Ronne] profits for
that purpose.
The Managers cannot regard the fact that they have
deemed it judicious to hold far a few months longer
the securities which Ton authorized to be issued in
order to obtain better prices for them, and the acqu '-
titian of valuable real estate, which can so readily be
disposed of, teeny reason for departing from that po
licy. In accordance with it, a-dividend of three and
one-half per cent.lhas been declared:
The Investment/ in the Alining Funds have antIOUI
,I9 diminished the Cash Dividend Fund If this sum
had not been so expended, it would haie equalled six
per rent ; and It is to be-remembered that this invest
ment is fur account of the Stockhotivii, and that in
January next. the accumulation for four years will
then be divided 'Mons them, in stock. and will equal,
about twelve and a bait per cent., of which about end'
and a half per cent. is now in the possession of the
Company; and that thereafter the (Relator, will be
made annually.-
The prospect for the future was never more ewer
aging for all, directly or indirectly interested in the
anthracite coal trade. Without glutting the maarket,
without depression in price, with profitable results to
producei, eairier, and consumer. 1,101,051 more tons
have been transported during the past than soy pre
ceding year. With the pence and prosperity of one
country, the demand scent. surely to increase. New
channels of trade,and its application to new purposes,
are daily presenting wider gelds for its consumption.
•The supply is inexhaustible, and no one can safely
venture to place a limit to the demand for future
years. It may well be, that in 1852,311 other channels
for the trade will be employed to' the extent of their
capacity. and that this Company may be compelled to
use, to the uttermost, all their means for transporta
tion. The machinery, with ouch new locomotives as
may be purchased from Renewal Fund, in the coming
year, may be equal to 1,900,000 tons, and this may
supply for that time the wants of the consumer. 'But
it may be proper for you,even now, to consider what
will be the condition of the Company, and the trade
for 1853. If the other works are employed to their
utmost capacity, upon this road will then be east the
necessity of transporting every ton which the increas
ed demand marraquire. It rests with you to decide
bow far inlay be prudent to authorize the Managers,
should the hustings of the present year, In their judg
ment, warrant it, to prepare for such results, by erect
ing more wharves upon the property already owned
at Richmond, and purchasing suck machinery as may
be than required. The cost of erecting a wharf amen
the Company's property, of eufficient capacity to ship
from it 200,000 tons per annum, is about 14.5,000. and.
the expense, of the machinery wilt be

or; at the rate of, say $12.000 for each additional 100,-,
000 tons transported. This machinery, even at the
low rates of the past year, produces a nett profit of
59 cents per ton, or 159.000 per annum-
The results of the business for the past year, now
communicated to you, are regarded by the Managers
as a jam subject fur congratulation. It is true that
the severe competition has. in some degree, diminish
ed the profits; but even if it should continue, the pro
prietors have the satisfaction to know that, whilst
contending under such unfavorable circiungtances,six
per cent. upon the whole capital bin been earned.—
The email advance of only ten cents per ton on the
average freight (which cannot mil to satisfy the pub
lic, will, without any increase in the tonnage, equal
41165,000, or, in other words. an additional pniftt of
four per cent. upon the amount of Common knock.
That the demand:for Penusylvania'• great staple
ill obtinue to increase, none can doubt. it has be

economy in use, forever connected with the steam en
gine, and is thus Inseparable from the commerce and
manufactures of our country. In their progress will
be found the secure basis of the prosperity of this
Company.
