Looking over Allan's History of Europe, from tho commencement of the French Bello- Julien until the restoration of the Napoleon dynasty in 1852—a work which, despite its Tory bias, is a repertory of valuable facts, po litical and personal—we were impressed with the idea of the mutability of politics in Paris. On a hasty thought, who would believe that all the great events in France, from the Revo lution of 1789 to the close of the Italian War In 1869, took place within the limited period of seventy years? This includes the destruc tion of the French Monarchy, the first Re public, the rise, progress, and fall of NAPO LEON, the restoration of the Bourbons, the return from Elba, and Imperial rule of the Hundred Days, the second return of the Bourbons, the imprisonment and death of NAPOLEON, the accession and deposition of CISARLES the Tenth, the "glorious Three Days of July," the rise of LOUIS PHILIPPE to the French throne as LAFAYETTE'S beet of Republics," the Revolution of 1848 and exile of the Orleans family, the second Republic with LA.MARTINE'S brief ascendency, the elec tion of LOUIS NAPOLEON to the Presidency, the coup d'itat of 1851, the restoration of the Em pire, the entente cordiale with England, the visits of Narorcox to London and of Vicx.o - to Paris, the Crimean War, and the recent contest of 1869, which aimed at making Italy free c‘ from the Alps to the Appenines." We shall gratify historical students, if not general readers, by condensing into a very litnited space, the annals of the fourteen dif ferent changes of Government which France has experienced in the seventy years between 1789 and 1859—a period which is within the memory of numerous living persons : 1.

Annual Report of the Directors of the Pennsylvania Railroad CO. Orrice Or THE PiXNA. RAILBOLD CO , PRIL/DELPIIIA, Feb. 4, 1860. To Me Stock Adders oftlie Pennsylvania Railroad Company :. lifebedience to the requirements of the' charter of the company, your Board of Directors submit their report of the operation. of your road during the past year, and the condition of the company at its ohms. The recovery of the manufacturing and agrienl total interests of the country from the oonsequenoes of the financial revulsion of 1857, and the failure of the cereal crops of the West for that as well as the preceding and succeeding years, has necessarily been slow. Under there 'circumstances we could scarcely have hoped for any material increase in the traillo of the road during the year 1859. The Increased business has, however, been steady, and exhibits a general improvement in the sources from whenoe the revenue of the company is derived. The earnings from freight, owing to the extreme low rates obtained daring a considerable portiorsof the year, consequent on the competition between the New Fork Central Railroad and the transmit era on the Erie Canal, do not correspond with the Increased tonnage of the road. The following condensed statement exhibits the results of the operations of your road for the year 1859: Earnings of the company from the business of the road: From passengers U. B. malls $1,420,912 43 74,483.00 expresses 75,120.00 freights 3,656,111.15 miscellaneous 135,728.63 $5,362,335.21 Expenses of operating the road were: Cost of conduoting trans portation $1,333,041.00 Cost of motive power.... 864,076.92 " maintenance of road 671,100 19 , oars. 190,278.34 " general expenses... 72 241.70 $3,130,733.15 Net earnings of the road. $2,231,617.06 The earn Inge of the road, es compared with those of the preceding year, give an increase of $177,024.53. The inereased earnings for the firatolass passen• gere amount to $73,355.99, while the earnings from the emigrant business ehow it decrease of 828,681.71 ; leaving as the inorease from the whole passenger traffic' the sum of $48,674 28. This In °roes° was mainly derived from the local travel upon the road, and is due to the increased facilities afforded for this character of business. The Phi. ladelphia Division shows en increase equivalent to a passage over the whole division of from 169,379 in 1858, to 296,488 in 1859, and on the main line of the Harrisburg and Lancaster road from 109,481 in 1858 to 124,244 in 1859, notwithstanding the competition between Harrisburg and Philadelphia, by the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad and its Lebanon Valley branoh. The whole number of passengers transported by the Company during the year was 1,459,110, and the miles travelled amounted to 54,839,691, or en average of 37.5-10 miles per passenger. It affords much gratification to the Board to renew the state ment made in the last annual report, that notwith standing the large number of passengers carried over the road, not a single life has heartiest. The freight earnings for the year amounted to the sum of $119,904.84• more than was derived from this source in 1858. The increase of the freight earnings is entirely due to the local busi ness, exceeding that of 1858 the amount of 110,937 tone, while the through freight, amounting in all to 239,008 tons, was only increased 12,998 tons. The whole tonnage moved upon the reed daring 1859 was 1,170,240 tons, exclusive of 70,875 tons of wood, coal, lumber, so., for the nee of the Com pany. Embraced in the foregoing tonnage, there was transported, in the cars of the oempany, 210,- 003 tool of coal, and of the same article 210,722 tone in the oars of individuals, making the entire movement of coal 421,625 tone, and an !norms.) in this traffic over the preceding year of 81,087 tons. The amount of coal delivered in Pittsburg during the last year (all in oars other than these of the Com pany) wan 100,302 tone, and varying but little from the amount for the year 1858. For more full and precise information in regard Li the earnings and expenses of the road, the kind and amount of tonnage, and foinumerons interest ing details. the etoekholdere are respectfully re ferred to the ample tabular statements from the Controller and Auditor, which will be found ap pended to this report. The resuitof the year's business should be grati fying to the ehareholders, as demonstrating the value of their property, and showing the strength of Its position. Your Board of Directors have not only been enabled to declare three per cent. semi annual dividends, clear of State tax, but have had a balance sufficient to justify the oreation of a sink ing fund for the redemption of the second mort gage bonds of the Company. in accordance with previous intimations to these bondholders. The funds furnished to the trustees of the Sink ing Fund have been invested by them In the shares of the Cumberland Valley Railroad Company, and to an amount of more than one-half of the capital stook of that oompany. This investment, while it yields a full interest upon the outlay, protects the business of this company from the undue 1Mb:ono of other interests. The roadway her not only been maintained in complete order during the year, but it has passed the period at which railways usually attain their maximum cost for " maintenance of way." Owing, however, to the quality of the iron used in its construction, the Pennsylvania Railroad has but just reached this point. The amount of iron sup plied for repairs, during the year, is equivalent to fitly miles of rack. will,* with the precast ex tent of line, is about the quantity that will be annually required to keep the road in 000 d eon ' dition. A lower rate of speed, for both passen ger and freight trains would materially lesson tho wear of the rally and the maohinery, and effect important savings in the cost of working the road in neatly every department. To attain high speeds heavy and powerful loco motives must be used, and additional safe-guards aro required to compensate for the increased risk involved Tho destructive effects of these heavy maohinee, moving at high veloeitlem, can be readily appreciated by every one, and it is, therefore, a matter of surprise that railway managers should persist in this practioe. This Company cannot, however, reduce the speed of its trtina, or advent, its through rates end retain its customers, while TWO CENTS. if 4 chief competitors continue to insist upon an ad vine The earnings of the oanals owned by the Compa ny, for the year 1859, were : From the Eastern Division.sls2,B7l 23 ' • Juniata Division.. 28,824 49 ' Western Division. 15,514 04 • Fr( m nrisoollanoous receipts 2,339 82 ----- $197,549 38 The expenses of maintaining the (moms for the same period, were as follows : For repel re, renewale, and enlargement... 1140,105 07 For superintendeffe,ooi leotors, look-tenders, weighmasters, station cry, V • • • 35,347 31 $1.75,452 38 ;Leaving net earnings of the espial.. $22447 0 0 The increase in the canal revenues over 1858 was $18,419 30, and the Increased expenditures were $61,394.08, embracing the sam of $24,294.79 ex pended In the re-erection of a bridge over the Sue quehanna river at Clark's Ferry, which had been blown down by a severe storm, and also an expen diture of about $B,OOO Incurred for steam towage, rendered necessary in consequence of the destruc tion of the bridge. The remaining portion of the increase of expenses was incurred in deepening and enlarging the capacity of the pastern division of the canal. The amount of coal transported on the canal' of the Company, during the year 1859, was 515,304 tone, being an immense over the preceding year of 164,634 tom, and the amount of lumber trans. Ported was increased from 95,770,453 feet In 1858 to 120,074,675 feet in 1859, giving an average in- Crean of tonnage of about twenty-five per cent. The gross; revenue of the canals was not, however, increased in the same ratio as the tonnage, owing ton reduction of toll, rendered necessary in order to retain this trifile in its onstemary ',Unmet The enlargement of the fluarahanna and Wyo. ming canals, which It is understood will be effected before the opening of navigation In the ensuing awing, will so redone the cost of transportation on the whole line as to allow a restoration of the tolls to their former limit. It has been the policy of this Company (contrary to public expectation) to cultivate the trade upon their minis and develop* the resumes of the region of eountry contiguous to them, in order, if possible, to render them pro ductive property. These canals were received from the Common- Wealth in a very.dilapldated condition; the prism of the canal being so reduced as to Unruly afford more than a depth of three feet of water through- Out. The condition of these works rendered it im practicable for thou engaged in transportation on them to contend stmesaally.trith the railway, for the traffic of the country traversed, and the eon- Sequenee was, at the time the company resolved poooeralon of -them, their trade wan gradually de taining. Upon the Eastern Division the depth of waterha, been increased to a minimum of Ova feet, and the other divisions of the works, where any trade of im portance was to be accommodated, have been rt. stored•to their original capacity. No portion of then Canals, exoept the Eastern Division, (of 46 miles in length) is self-sustaining; but it is hoped that the Juniata Division, as far west as Hunting don, may ultimately be made to produce some net revenue. The management of the entire line of eanala has been placed under Thomas T. Merman, Bat., eivil engineer, who has conducted the affairs In this branch of the Company's genice with commend able judgment and economy. It will be seen from the Statement of the Trea surer, annexed to this report, that there has been received from shareholders, In payment for the capital stook of the Company, np to January 1, 1350 • $13,249,125.00 And from loans, he., 9,307,038.32 Mortgages and ground rento on real estate,— 316,479.11 Amount of bonds due the State of Pennsyl vania for purohaae of Main Line of Public, Works ' 2,300,000.00 Balance of interest and dividenls due to stook- _ holders, and State tax on coupons and dirt donde unpaid 45,349.63 Bataan) to oredit of oon- tingent fund 408,874.21 Balance to eredit of profit and lone, after deduct ing disoonnt, on second mortgage bonds sold during the year 732,986.39 51,368,1333.68 WHICH 11AS BEER SAPINDISD AS YOLLOWS Coot of road, including engineering, land da mages, fencing, ma chine ehope engine . houses, station and warehouses. car sheds, water stations, fore •men's and tool bottom, • • and shop maohinory,' • between Harrisburg and Pittebntiff and . • • • • '• • , station and warehouses on the Philadelphia Division 10,904,525.18 !Len profiteer road'after paying Interest to t-tockholden, up to November 1, 1855, credited to cost of oon- • straction, as required by charter 889,185.79 16,315,336.31 Cost of Main Line of publio works pur °haled from State of Pennsylvania 7,500,000.00 Cost of equipment of road including locomotives, freight, road and pas senger oars. 2,914,473.23 Cost of real estate of the Company 1,044,030 82 Cost of telegraph Ric.. 45,281 33 Extension of Peanut's, nia Railroad to Sten- • benville and Pittsburg Railroad 5,214.09 Total cost of roads and canals belonging to the Company 28,484,221.50 Amount of stook of the Pittsburg, Ft.

Other portions of this expenditure have been made ict extensions of the shops at Pittsburg and Altoo na; the constructions of sidings, warehouses, and passenger stations on the line of the Philadelphia division (Philadelphia and Columbia Bethesda and in the 111011 , 190 of our ear equipment ; details of all which will be found in the tabular state ments marked B, hereto appended. These expenditures have, In part, been met, as well as a payment to the State of 8100,000 on le eount of the Main Line purchase, by an increase of the funded debt of the Company—the remain der, after providing for the payments due to the Sinking rand, having been contributed from the profits of the toad. The erection of a passenger station at Pittsburg, and one at Lancaster, a warehouse at Johnston, and the extension of the second track from Barre. to Petersburg, or Huntingdon, as also the cost of reaching a Delaware terminus, will require an ex penditure to be provided for in 1880. The practical working of the road eines the pur chase of the Philadelphia division has demon strated the Importance of's change in the distribu tion of the motive power of the line, which will render necessary the enlargement of the atioomeao (lotions for it at Horriaburg, and throw out of use the intermediate shops. It is estimated by the General Superintendent that the cost resulting from moil an arrangement (and b'y which the road ran be operated in three divisions) would be fully covered by the saving effected in the motive power and transportation departments in a Dingle year. The Pittsburg, Fort Wayne, and Chicago Rail road Company, which from time to time received pecuniary aid from this Company, hos been in operation from Pittsburg to Chicago during, the en tire year 1859. Its increased revenues during that period, over those of the preceding year, when we consider the depressed condition of the trade of the Northwest, should be deemed quite satisfactory. Had the older portion of the road and machinery been maintained in good, effective condition, the not results upon that rood would have been sorb as to restore confidence in the enterprise. 'Theheavy expenditures on these coconuts, however, left but a small amount to ho applied to the liquidation or the floating ?debt. and to. meet the advances re quired for the extension of the line. This floating debt consisted chiefly of the aggre gate of that of the three Companies composing the consolidated line, which at the time of consolida tion was much larger than prudence justified. It was carried mainly by a hypothecation of its bonds. The protection of these bonds from sacrifice has been the chief difficulty encountered in arranging, the indebtedness of that Company. Under the belief that the floating debt creditor. received too much consideration from the Direc tors, to the injury of the mortgage bondholders„ the latter applied to the United States Distriet Court for the appointment of a Receiver. This proceeding was concurred in by the Board of Di rectors, after a change in the officer was agreed upon, and the decree of the court so arranged as to equitably pentad all intermits involved. This decree of the court proteetu, es far as praetleable, the interests of the Pennsylvania Railroad Comp.

Under Ude itellatters,-;„: offers for property at different localities were received, and referred to the chief engineer 'or- the cit 7 for estimates of reaching the samara - - t properties offered. The report of thii officer -wee - published, for your Information. After a care- '.,_ ful consideration of this report, and an enemies- -- 1 lion of the various /its by special committees of *: > the Board, the location was determined, with - iv. markable noanimity, at the foot of Washington Street, immediately above the Navy Yard. By. - - member of, the Board, except one, folly based that the place selected is, under all the stream- - stances, the best adapted to the purposes for Which A river terminus Is required. The object to be at tained by a terminal on the Delaware, Is torednee the cost of placing the' products of the West, and of the interior of ourown State, vie the Pennsyl- - Tanta route, at a point where °heap storage and - good shipping facilities can be obtained, and thee secure our due proportion of these products for transportation, to be shipped coastwise or to foreign markets. The requirements for such a site were economy in the oostrootten of a road adapted to the use of 'casettes steam power, con venience of access, ample space at moderate sat, - and proximity to the business tents of the city. The leeation at the foot of Washington street was early determined upon In the minds of a ma, jority of the Board as ono which would boat meet these requirements, and the only &Moult, ex perienoed in arriving at a details concision was as to the continued use of locomotives upon that avenue. After maturely considering the subject they felt justified that the great Interests involved in the enterprise would be salSelent to' control this question, while to reach any other _point, suggested there was no route that could at all compare with it in cheapness of ocestruction, or superior to It In aoceptability from the basins centre of-Phila delphia, unless it was that via Marlin street, which required to make It available municipal and individual concessions that It scarcely seemed rea sonable to ask. The larg sum required to complete the Callow street eonneellon, added to the high rice of lend at the terminus, pimpled it beyond the eonatie wit:Loner the Board as a project to which they fell - justified in contributing any considerable amount. The sum required to consummate this eonneetion. if it had all to be furnished .by the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, would be so large that the inte rest upon it would defeat the main object sought in retching the Delaware front—that of reducing the cost of placing produce on shipboard. To render_ this roots available for the object intended, the parties constructing it would neoessarily have to sink the larger eariton of their investment, as the Entered upon the oat of the improvement must form part of the charge for transportation. Re duce Uses* charges to the lowest remunerating standard, and the advantages of this Company are Increased ea as to enable them to meet their Gem- pothers and vastly augment thebusineas of our city. Under existing arrangements, a large portion of the Western products brought of Philadelphia, poses directly through to other markets for sale, storage or shipment, where superior facilities "are offered. One of the objects to be obtained by am e depot privileges on the Delaware front is to retain the produce on storage, in warehouses on the wharf until the owner determines upon his market. This - Iseetremilation of produce will inevitably attract shipping to thisport, and treat* a competition for , freights new so much desired. Toe louts adopted also affords the advantage of - eonnecting (by a short branch road) directly with the City Gas Works, which would effect a saving to transportation and handling of the coals 'menial, consumed by them, equal to the interest upon the - cost of extending the road from West Philadelphia (its present terminus) to a connection with the Philadelphia, Wilmington, and Baltimoreßailroad, - east of the Schuylkill. A oonneethm with the lat ter road at the west end of Gray's Ferry bridge may be made at small expense, which, combined with an extensien of the Philad elphia and Reading Railroad to the P. nnsylvania Railroad on the west bank of the Schuylkill, would enable the fernier company to supply the region of country reached - by the West Chester and Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore Railroads, with coal, instead of passing, as at present, along Broad- street. It' has been the policy of your Board to seek an increase of traffic by scouring freights destined to any part of the world, in all oases where they believed they could add to the profits of the share holder*, while they have, with equal care. sought to protect the manufacturing and 0910 m ereial inter ests of Philadelphia, whose means hare been ea liberally embarked in the enterprise, by such dif ferences, in her error, in the rates of freight, as were due to the shorter distance it was to be trans ported to and from the West.

PECK & MHO BLISS MODE Or TASOG via CENSUS or MX C.rt TPD Sr.trsti.—As this is the year for taking the eensus, the following remarks in relation thereto, which we find in the Washington Constitution, will be of Interest to many persons: ,• The duties of this undertaking devolve upon the United States marshals, who appoint their own assistants. The General Government has in each '-itate or Territory one or more judicial districts, with each of whin is connected a marshal, who sets as high sheriff in the District Court of the United States. These marshals are required by law to subdivide their districts, and for each subdivision to appoint an assistant, taking care not to Include& greater population (by estimate) than 20,000 in say one rabdivinn. " The assistants, having been qualified by oath for the proper performance of their duties, are furnished, through the marshals; with blanks and inetruotlons. In the prosecution of their work, they are required to mike two copies of their re port. The original returns are filed with the clerk of the court of each county. and the copies are forwarded to the marshal, who transmits one copy to the Secretary of State for his district, and the other to the census office in Washington. The compensation to the marshal to in proportion to the population enumerated by his assistants; !heal& that exceed one million, be Is paid one dollar for each thousand persona numerated; should the population returned by his assistants be less than one million, he receives the sum of one dollar and twenty-flve cents For earth one thousand persons re turned—a system of compensation sufficiently mo derate, but which may admit of the payment of a greater anionnt for a lesser serviee, as in the ease of a marshal whose returns include 050,000 per sons at one dollar and twenty-five mints per thou- i send persons, no more than he whose returns do not much exceed a million—an Inequality not un usual in rating fees for mileage and other services " The assistants who perform the work of enu meration are paid on a different principle, com bining in a novel manner compensation for labor and travel—one which was found to operate very fairly and satisfactorily to the emplelyees and Go vernment. fits allowance is two cents for each person enumerated ; for each farce, ten cents ; for each establishment of productive industry, fifteen cents; for social statistics, two per cent= on the amount allowed for enumertling the reputation; and two cents for nth mortality return, with ten cents for travelling expthves, to be amekained by multiplying the square loot of the number of dwel ling-hones in his district by the square root of the ntunber of equare miles In hie division; from the product whereof is to be derived the number of miles travelled, and eight cents per page for the two copies. " The marshals and assistants in California, Oregon, and Utah, and New Mexico, under the operation of an amen Iment to the law, ree iced compensation at the discretion of the See -vary of the Interior. whin was determined by the addi tion of one huadred per centum." HORRIBLE DEATH PROM HYDROPHOBIA.—About the beginning of November !eat, Melissa. Carbert, aged twelve years, daughter of John Carhart, of Hickory Grove township, lowa, wee bitten on the arm by a dog. The Davenport Gazette thus de scribes the result: "Last week she complained of pain In her back, and general indisposition. Showing her 'dog wound' to one of her wheel companions, last week, she sold it was still painful, and her sores looked in flamed. Saturday afternoon she lay in bed. Sunday morning eke went into convulsions on the sight of water. Her ecmvulsions afterwards were from a few minutes to over an hour in du ration, and she was sensible between them. During these spasms she clutched at everything violently, chewed a napkin, and appeared made more frantic by the appearance of her own saliva on the napkin. At times she shrieked fearfully, yet did not appear sensible It was a horrid spec tacle. Monday morning, during her rational mo ments, she called the family around her, and bade them an affectionate farewell, being fully sensible of her hopeless condition. Her convulsions gra dually became weaker, and Monday evening, at 5} o'clock, the quietly died. Her death occurred about nine weeks after the date of the biting. The dog, a very large one, appeared suddenly and mysteriously, and was utterly unknown in the neighborhood." tar The most 'deniably& Western hunter was Lord Aare, who remained nearly three years on the plains, and the plateau of the table lands be tween the Sierra Nacre and Sierra. Nerada. His retinue consisted of thirty man, sixty horses, laiy,o baggage and provision trains, tons of ammunitica, and $lO l OO worth of looproTed llseartrol l - .
