M3* OFFICIAL-PAPER OF TBS CITT-SM

* PiTTSBCBon, Jan. 6th, 1858. J
The announcement in a morning paper that
"J. Edgar Thompson, Esq., President of the
Penna. Railroad Co., had accepted the position
of Chief Engineer of the Pittsburgh, Ft. Wayne
and Chicago Railroad, with a view of proceeding
at onco to the completion of the oighty-two miles
•• between Plymouth and Chicago,” although not
-literally true, may perhaps be regarded tut ?nh
*tnnrially so?
The Board of Directors, (of which Mr. Thomp
son is a member, and was present,) at their last
session just closed-, bad specially under consid
eration this subject, os they regarded the com
pletion of the road to-Chicago os the solution of
the financial difficulties now surrounding the
Company. The work west of Plymouth has
jiprcr ceased through all the disastrous times,
• • jgpY we hope coming to o close. With the assets,
'■Ml aside previons to October last, to be devoted
’to -the completion to Chicago, and the material
aid 0 f (ho poblic-splrited citizens of Porter
-Lake counties in Indiana, the Company has been
ablo steadily!although with a slow pace, to push
’ forward their work; and in this thoy ore very
"ugreatiy indebted to the persevering energy and'
-'■wand discretion of Hon. Samuel Ilnnna, a mom
ber of tbn'litjard from Fort Wayne. .
. • Thu rate of progress of the work for the past
six months .has not been cqual-to tho vast in
terests alreadfinvolved in this line—direct in
. tercsts-to tho extent of fifteen millions of dol
lars, and contingent interests to an equal extent;
-. besides the demand of tho ‘.‘Articles of Consoli
. and of the commetco of the country,
: that the road shall bo completed to Chicago. It
was this aspect of tho case that induced the
Board.of Directors to look beyond-their, own
[ ; present means,'and to offer inducements to ener
"igetic capitalists to oomo forward with their cop
, .ital and join it with certain valuable assets of tho
' Company, ajid complete tho road to Chicago the
... coming summer. •
To carry out this plan, the Board of Directors ■
••have tendered to Mr. Thompson the post of
/vCbief Engineer of tho Company, with ample
- powers,-and, as they believe, means, to accom
plish lht>‘ object. Although Mr. Thompson has
jjot formally- accepted the trust, I have good rea
son to believe-that .he .will, and at onco enter
u£oa the duties assigned Kim, in which event, as
everybody knows, ,with him, to undertake is to
accomplish'--';.
: - WitU thiii road completed from its own depot
--gftttnifoin the City of Chicago to the track of
,the Ponnswßailroad in tluscity, I believe it tho
voidable property of the kind for its cost
and length in this county, and one the least
likoly eu- bfripjariously affected by tho constant
ii j£M_ | jd/'l'i 'pi i n eommerroand trade.
' I hesitation in placing this opinion upon
record,although the enterprise has been carried
blpng,.from its very inception in 184&to the
present-moment by on unceasing struggle, and
this struggle must continue until the goal for
.ttitichthfr Company set out is reached, when an
ample reward will be found for all the energies
' and means expended. Tho sacrifices of tho past
have fallen upon the stockholders: those for tho
short future (and it need bo but short with pro
pep eo-operalton) arc expected to be borne equi
tably and fairly by bond holders and general
creditors as well as stockholders \ mite from
yach will accomplish tho work.

Accident.—We hate again and again called
attention to tho fact that tho plicff of slopping
of tho cars near Federal street in Allegheny, la
exceedingly daogero.us, and suggested that a
railing or something of the sort should be made
on the side-towards the:canal to prevent ac
cidents. ' Several hiTc already occurred there.
The latest case occurred on Wednesday night.
Mr. fttutberry, a citizen of Pittsburgh, formerly
a book keeper nt Mr. Haven’s stepped off the
cars there oh the night aforesaid'and on the side
next the canal. lie fell ovri* the side of. the
platform a distance of somo ten or twelve feet,
headlong among logs and rubbish, breaking his
jaw In two plactt', cutting a gash in his neck
ana Splitting his nose in a frightful manner.
Such a neglect of necessary guards and pre
cautions in such a place Is, it seems Jo-us, not
only censure Me bm actionable.

but $216,000. Unless the expenses are reduced be

mends the suppression of bank notes under fire dol
lars, and after three or lire years the suppression of
notes under ton dollars. Concerning Kansas he
says nothing but the direct intervention of Federal,
influence can force through Congress tho Lecompton
Constitution. If the Government, without the sanc
tion of the people, can force upon Kansas that Con
stitution—-conceived by fraud and violence—it will
bo the weightiest blow ever given against fVeo gov
ernment s.
