MONDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 28,1855. lieport of the Chief Engineer and Bnperlnxend- f\fNev Turk, ent of the Ohio and Pennerlrnnla Hall road* to tdb Board or Dirsctohs, &o. \ Gentlemen: —The following Report to the Board of Directors of the Ohio and Pennsylvania Rail road Company is respectfully bnbmitted, giving a summary of the molts of the operations of the year 1854. r My doily intercourse with the President and other officers of the- company, and the monthly statements made to them, together with the elaborate tabular statements apir submitted at the close of the year, showing tjho operations of the different departments of tpe service trader my superintendence, in a great variety of minute details, seem to render unnecessary a repetition of the particulars embodied in the Report of the President and Directors to the Stockholder. On first enteringJhe service) of the conip&ny in a professional capacity, I made it a condition that 1 should not bo required tj) act either* aa a receiving or disbursing agent This was.done because 1 knew from former experience i else where, that my professional [duties would be sufficiently ardaous and engrossing,' without ad ding to them others of a fiscaljcharacter. This arrangement made with the. Board.before the redd was located, baa been adhlrcd to, and inone of the Company's money has pkssed through my hands. Tbo receiving and disbursing officers in the departments of construction, repairs and transportation, are appointed by the Board of Directors; and, in my opinion, for faithfulness and attention to duty thoy are worthy of [high praise. With this report Psubmit the accounts of D. N. Courtney, Esq., Master of Transportation; John Fleming, Eeq4i(3eneral Ticket Agent; J. E. Jackson, Esq., Auditor of tho Freight De partment; and Qeofge W. .Glass, Esq., Master Machinist. I wish (o call tho particular atten tion of tho Board to ? the very miunte, clear and satisfoctorystatements rendered from tho Motive Power and Machine Shop Department. - The accounts of Messrs. F; M. Hutchinson, Jos. M. Wright and Wm. W. Woodward, having charge of the tbreo divisions of tho road, for repairs and maintainanco.of the way, are also submitted; together with 'those of Mr. T. B. White, having charge of the work done oft the wooden bridges and the water stations. The Work done upon the Allegheny river bridge, and upon tho station bouses has bean superintended by ; Mr. T. Proebl. The last annual report made by me contains the following sentence, “Iq my opinion the earn, tags of 1854 may bo safely estimated at $>900,- 000.” The earnings of the year have been $l,- 111,626- 18; being $211,626 or 23} percent more than tny estimate; and 66 per cent more than the earnings of -1853. And whflo this has boen accomplish the; number of engines provi ded, bos been materially less than the number asked for in that report. Tho distribution of the work done was very irrcgolar; the earnings of tho last half of the year being fifty per cent more than the first half; and tho earnings of October be ing more than doable thoso of January or. Feb ruary. For about four months of the height of tho business season, tho work, both day and night, was very arduous; and the men generally in the Company's service exerted themselves with great energy, and wero often obliged to run doable trips. Tbe-numbcr of Passengers carried in 1854 was 434,190, being equal to an average number of 1387 per working day. Tho number in the preceding year was 358,738, and the increase •was 76,462, or 21 per cent The earnings-of the Passenger trains increased from $47G,0CG,97 to $684,755,08; being an increase of $208,688,- 11, or 44 peroent In 1854, 148,088 Tons of freight were .trans ported, against 74,740 Tons in 1853; the amount being very nearly doublo, while the freight earn ings increased from $191,937,52 t0542G,87J,10, or 22 per cent rhors than double. The number of Locomotive Engines upon tKe, road has been increased from'3l to 42. The , new ones are efficient and powerful machines, and eight more engines ought to be provided be fore the next harvest Additional, freight cars will also be needed. • . ; * The relations of the read with other Uneß have generally been amicable daring tins' past year, and we are now ticketing in connection with twenty other railroad Companies, and one stage company. An -uncommonly Berfere ana Tongf continual drought existed along the Ihte during the au tumn months, doing immense injury to the crops and drying up the springs and streams. When the rood was crowded with business to the ut most capacity of its rolling stock, of its ride tracks, and of its warehouse and platform ac commodations, eoreral of-its wajer stations fail ed. Great inconvenience resulted, especially at Enon, whore the quantity of water osed .was large and tho"itopply was supposed to be ample. Prompt measures wero taken to obtain additional supplies' and the difficulty was obriated as soon as practicable. ! To add to these embarrassments, tbs cholera, which was then traversing the western country, broke oqt upon the line, and for a time eaused many apprehensions. The officers and agents of the company were, howeTer, mercifully spared from the disease, although muoh exposed in the vicinity of it. Great efforts were made to accommodate the very heavy business which was pressed upon the tine. Side tracks were lengthened and new ones laid down, additional water stations, platforms, and other station accommodations wereprovided; and tho maximum capacity of the road for earn-, ing money was increased about seventy por cent, overthe corresponding period of the preceding j year. The length of tbi rood from the Federal street station, In Allcghony City, to Crestline is one hundred and eighty-seven miles, and tho aggre- 1 gate length of double track and side tracks Is twenty-nine and ono quarter miles, making a: total of two hundred and sixteen and one-qaar ter miles of single tmok. The cost of keeping up the frock, in fine order for high speeds, dur iog the past~yesr, has been four hundred and one dollars and thirty cents per mile of single track. The company has on hand seven hun-, dred tons of railroad iron Jiot laid down. Nearly all the temporary trestle bridges which, were erected in the first instance, on the west-I em division ofihe road, where stono was scarce,. have *beeh replaced by permanent structures,' with stono abutments of heavy - masonry; and retaining Walls and cribs fillod with stone, have ! been put in to proteet the road bed from abra sion at exposed points along the Ohio river. . Somo further-progress has been made in fono- Ing the tine, and f am Very dorirous that tho Board should mako arrangements to have this very necessary work completed along the whole road at an early day. The following table shows ,-in a striking Ught, the rapid increase of the business of-the Ohio and Pennsylvania Railroad: Yr.

GMJ7SS 0S 42087110 1.111.CJ6 18 The earning of 1854 have been 20 per cent on what the road, with Its present equipment, has oost, Including discounts and interest paid I daring its construction. The transportation expenses and repairs have I amounted to $499,508'87, bring about 45, per cent on the gross earnings; and the net earnings i have been $012,117 31, being about 11 percent on tho cost ofihe rood with its present /equip-i ment, whilst more than half of this cost la rep resented by; bonds tearing. 7 per,eent interest! and having a longtime to run. ' The largo business exhibited in the foregoing table bos been built tip in a short time, In- the i faoo of an active competition, and gives some proof of good poUcy .and energetio management: The earnings of the road have increased farter than those of tho Cleveland and Columbus line,, which is often referred to as the test in Ohio.- Tho northom route, although longer than ours, enjoys some. great advantages: ono of these is eboap water carnage from' Cleveland to New York, during the season of navigation, and an other is continuous railroad lines, free from'por tenge or drayage, to both New York and Bos ton. . > • &ATUIOAD. I estimated the tax on the.trade of our road, at the height of the business season, latt fall, to be about fire hundred dollars per day, for the want of the bridge connection at Pittsburgh; and this, combined with the'tonnage tax on: the Pennsylvania Railroad,. operates powerfully against us in competing with other lines. Six hundred thousand dollars hare been sub scribed to the stock of the Ohio and Pennsylva nia 'Railroad Company, upon the express condi tion that the bridge connection shall be complex ted, and one-fourth of that amount has been made expressly applicable tq It. Good frith to the subscribers of these heavy sums, as .well as the requirements of the charter, require that the work should be done; and it la gratifying to me to be able to report, not enfc that the work is begun, but that five of the eur plcr foundations, ioolnding all the difficult ones, ue already con-, strueted If the company had.the necessary funds, there ; ia no Engineering reason why the work should hot be; brought Into use before, the dose of th<* present year, 1866; ; The Canal Commissioners were hot haling that the Railroad bridge should, be built In juxtapo altlon with the aqueduct; n carefolex amination of the subset, :the Board of Direefore selected a rite about twodjuhdred feet belowths aqueduct, and very nearly opposite the passen ger station .the Pennsylvania Railroad, on Lib* ,strpeti« tbh:most aritable place' for the ereotton of the bridge. GAZETTE. It was- also determined that the work should be done in the best manner, and that the bridge should be built for a double track. I estimate the probable coat of the engineer ing works required to construct a doable track connection, by the proposed route, between the Federal street station, in Allegheny city, and the liberty street station, in Pittsburgh, at two hun dred and forty- thousand dollars, of which the Pennsylvania Railroad Company has contributed ono hundred and fifty thousand dollars.; Tho line has been so located as not to interfere with any valuable buQdTngs, and it is for the Board of Directors to estimate the oost of the right of way. In order to tako advantage of the low water season, for putting in the foundations of the piers, in tho Allegheny river, the Board pit un der contract the foundations and masonry Of the bridge, on the 271 h of July, 1864. Thq con tract was let to Henderson, Alston & Co., expe rienced contractors and the lowest bidders^ The work in the river was begun on tha 10th day of August, and it was pressed forwardj with great rigor, notwithstanding tho siokly season, so that the foundation of tho fifth pier wasjsuhk on the 6th of November. | The pita for the piers were excavated in gravel by a itcam dredging machine; and substantial foundations, of solid square timber, boltodjwith iron rag bolts, were sunk in them, below low water, on which the masonry was started, j Pier foundation No. 1 was sunk in 9 feet water; No. 2 and No. 3 in 'thirteen feet water, and No. 4 and No. 6 in six feet water. The foundation of the western pier, No. 6, which is the only one remaining, being in shaUowi water, has not yet been put in. . Large qaantiites of heavy rip-rap have been placed around tke%undations. When the winter sot in, the work was necessarily sus pended, with from four to seven courses of heavy masonry laid iu each pier, the averngo height of tho stone wefk being seven feet eight inches. Tho work done and the materials fornijhed, up to this time, amount, at the contract prices, to $36,260 13. The piers ore placed as nearly in line With tho picra of the aqueduct as the na ture of the case will permit; and if, from' any cause it should hereafter be found expedient, crib-work connections between the piers of the two s tractor es can be constructed. ; If the Board intend to complete tho Bridge this year, the superstructure should be put un der contract without delay. The company own thirty-three first class pas senger can and seven of second class, ten baggage can, three hundred and forty-one freight and platform cars, and one hundred and fifty gravel cars. Having been connected with the Ohio 'aad Pennsylvania Railroad from its commencement,' and feeling deeply, interested in its sucodss, 1 am much gratified with the results of tho work ing of tho road in the past year, and the neat increase of the earnings of the line. - • lam more than ever convinced that the Com pany has a future before it of-bright promise, and that when its direct connections with Chica go and Bt. Louis are completed, its receipts will be immensely augmented and its permanent prosperity secured. i The faitLfol services of the persons employed upon the line daring the past year deserve my acknowledgements, and they are especially due to Mr. D. N. CoarUfoy, the, master of transpor tation. Good feeling has } generally prevailed amoung the men, when serious evils existed on some other important roads, whero the reverse wa* the case; In conclusion,. I may be permitted to say that, the Ohio and Pennsylvania Railroad is; now generally admitted to rank with the most tneful and important tines in the country. Respectfully submitted. 80L0M0N W.

Among the notables present were Lord Cardigan, Admiral Sir Charles Copier, Captains Lynch, Maxsee, and other offi cers returned from the Crimea and the Baltic. — Enthusiastic cheering greeted the appearance of Cardigan and Napier. The Lord Mayor propo sed the toast of <( tho Nary/* coupling with it the names of Admiral Napier and Copt. Lynch. The health of the gallant Admiral haring been cordially toasted, • i Sir C. Napier, in replying to the toast said: My lords, ladies, and gentlemen, if an officer, haring returned from a foreign serrice, like my noble friend near me—if he will allow me to call him so (the Earl of Cardigan)—after haring performed prodigies of r&lor, has been received •in the manner ho has been receired this jday, how much more proud l must feel, who hare re turned from my command haringhardly perform ed any serrice at all, and been censured by the government, and dismissed from my command. (Cries of “no, uo.’M T repeat it, “dismissed from, my oomm&nd.” I hare no doubt that it will be expected by the present company that soma eo ooont should be girou of the rery small eerrioe performed in the Baltic by that magnficiont fleet which was sent out from this country.— [Cheers.] Xhat fleet was certainly magnificent to k de gree, but fit was rery badly manned and worse disciplined; but, ho‘waver, wo managed to take iv to the Baltic without pilots, without charts, all the officers being perfectly unacquainted with that soa and the difficulties of Its aarigation, and ws succeeded In getting there in perfeot safety. Now, the first object I had In riew, was to en deavor, if possible, to satisfy the wishes of the people of this country. I was quite aware, when I"went there,-that not opo-tenth part of what was expected could be performed; but, never-1 theless 1 was determined to do the befit I pop*i-1 bly could. When we first wont op, my riew was to' gire Russia every chance of putting to sea With her fleets. I divided my fleet into two squadrons. X left one in tho Gulf of Finland, and the other not Very far off at the Island of Gothland.! \ However, tho Radians did not think proper to come out. of their harbors. Our next objeot was to go to Cronstadt and see what was to be done there. We went there with the as- sistance of a French squadron, to do all we pos ribly coaid to attack the'place, should the emer gency arise. We found th 6> TO "Pny- •*» opin ’,h“ tte other members of ihe conn- ■„ gnn . thBir opinion, they *“> ana the French admiral also yerr nroDerlr to join m snob a stop. Uo P .X,e already giren my opinion on tho snhjeot of an attack purely narat in its character.” J The ermentathomewas not eatisfied with thaw Tho French general of engineers sent another report home, still more bare than the first, and it is unnecessary for me to say that wo all con curred in condemning that opinion also, and tho French army returned home, and I. belieje, and hare no hesitation In Baying that had they gone np the gulf of Finland again, instead of re turning home, our fleet would havo been lost Not satisfied with thia however, I went up de termined to haveanother survey of that fortifica tion, which is one of the strongest in Europe This was in the month of September, and that month in the Baltic is equal in sorority to the month of November here, and among tho Chan nel Islands. I sent home a report on the survey I had made, after great care and deliberation, and with the intention of doing ail that man could do, if possible, to satisfy the expectations of tho peoploof England.- At the momentitwaa reported that Sebastopol was taken, it was also “fked, “Why does not Admiral Napier take St. • Cronatadt?” and in foot it wab\ rr.« V.. i y d « you Dot 8° anii teke Moscow!" S? r -1 1 did nut expect that the admira ty could join in that clamor. I ray I certainly nexer expected that they oould be no mean and deepieable [a laugh, and hear, hoar, 1 a« to join m that clamor, in order to bring odium upon anaral offioor who had doao the beat in hu power to bring honor and credit to bia conn try. [Hear, hoar, hear.] What did Ido? I sent home a clear and detailed account to the admiralty, stating to them iny opinions, and what appliances were necessary in order to take Swea borg. Too will hot expect mo to state what those opinions were. [Hear, hear, hear.] Suf fice it to say that there were two’ opinions given, ono of which I thought was certain to obtain success, tho other-certain of insuring destruc tion. What did the' admiralty do ? Now I men tion this particularly and plainly, in order that there moy be no mistake whatever—because, if tho government havo thh:kastspirit about them, they will immediately- dVi~*argo ms out of tho service. [Hear, uear, an«,laughter.] The ad miralty ’perverted my language. They not only did that, but they wrote me the most goading letters they could possibly write; they' asked mo wliy I did not take Swcaborg, and do this, that and the other. They received my letter giving an account of how Sweoborg might bo taken, upon the 4th of October—tho very day the re ports reached this country of the taking of Se bastopol. On tho 9th of October, the news came that Se bastopol was not taken; but the Admiralty had not the plain, straightforward- dealing, or the honesty to write and apologize to me, but they perverted what; T had written; and which gave them a plan for tho taking of Swcaborg. 1 was not going to stand that [a laugh and cheers.] 1 am not the man to pat np with an insult [renew ed cheeTs.] I.remonstrated most strongly; but after all my remonstrances, the Admiralty per sisted still in Baying that I had led them astray. What could I do? 1 was not going to bo driven into all this, particularly as Sir James Graham, daring the whole timo I was in tho Baltic, had written to me, calling upon me to beware of the stonewalls—not to risk her Majesty’s fleet—that these stone walls were not to be trusted, and saying, “when you were going to the Baltic,you were generally accnsed of want of discretion, but now you have proved yourself a consummate commander in chief." After that came themost insulting and degrad ing letters eTer addressed to an officer—and I mention this particularly, and I hopo it will go throughout the world, and that Sir James Gra ham will be prevented from ever sitting again -in the administration ns the first lord "of i tho Admiralty. I state it to the public, and T wish it to be known, that, had I followed tho advideof Sir Janes Graham, i should most inevitably have left the fleet behind me in tho Baltic. I will prove it before all'the world, and if Sir James Graham has one singlohit of_honor in him, ho will never take at the Admiralty until this mattor is cleared upj and I bave_nd right ever to be employed again, and 1 ought to be scratched off the navy Jht if I am not tolling tho truth. [Cheers.] Tam taking the first oppor tunity, and perhaps the only one I may have, of making this statement public os' I now do, aud l am perfectly ready to answer for my conduct be fore tho Honse of Commons, whenever theychoose to call upon mo to do so. 760 76 4SO£&3 76 160,000 00 Sfi£S643l 99 750,000 00 ) .469,000 00 «37;805 U 100,000 00 40,116 88 811 00 ■'■■■ ——tfli&Mn w ALLSCUKNY TAUET RAII.ROAD.
