I was lO more than they claimed or could
8 hare receiyed under the firk contract; but, in
7 addition to this, under th« first contract they
t • would liavo been compelled to receive $90,750
A id stock. Under the second, they were entirely
V released from taking stock; so that, by this
g second arrangement an additional $9t5,700 of
f; ”* wc, rkingmeanB were drawn from it. Nor was
i the only, loss to the Company; for, by the
| t€rm9 of the second agreement, the sub-contracts
3 were assumed by the company, and in settle
ment for them, the loss sustained on the bonds
s-l whioh, under the first contract, would hare
. passed at par, was $167,484 82, to which add
loss first shown, of $26,776 16, and we have an
actual lost to the Company, by abandoning the firtt
contract, of $183,260 98, independent of the 1
substitution of bonds, &c., lor stock subscrip
tion. r I
| Another operation is the fq Uowing:
t *^A m oog thp contracts may be mentioned that
w u™* of the firm of Evans, Stewart.
Maher & Collins. He. was a Director of the
road, and had the contract for furnishing the
cross ties and! laying the same. On the 16th of
V May, 1657,-a; settlement was made with ffm,
j Maher, by the Company’s notefor $28,252, pay
i able January 1,1868, and giving him $52,000
I Ist Mortgage] bonds as collateral' These'col-
were given, conditioned that if tie note
' was notpaidat maturity they shonld be retain
ed by Wm. Maher ns full settlement of the
j said note; the note was not paid, consequently
.; the bonds arc forfeited, and thus the account is
, ] closed. The cross ties were not all furnished at
j tho time of this settlement with Win. Maher, but
as they were* famished, large quantities were
seised upon and sold, under an execution issued
at the instance of tho said Wm. Maha*, to satisfy
judgments obtained byhim upon tho notes of the
Company, which he had. either bought or receiV
j ed in payment of debts due him. In this way
all the cross ties foraishedby Wm. Maher & Co: I
• large quantities of bridge lamber, bricks, and
; all other movable articles on the road have been
sold under these judgments, and purchased and
now held by Wm. Maher and others, forebout
-V one-fourth the sum paid to him and others for
/ ®ocn niatenals. The valne of the materials thus
j told has been estimated at 850,000. ”
i Tl ? e report loTwlndea with the following re-
I flections,, which we most say the report forcibly
suggests: . 3 '
“It i» a mortifying fact, that tho North Wont
ern Railroad seems to have been started and
continued from a personal consideration and
convenience to • the Directors, rather than to
complete a road for the accommodation of the
business of the section of country through which
it was designed to pass. The protection of the
stockholders, and the interest of the city and
counties which had so liberally extended their
assistance, seems to have been altogether a
secondary consideration.”

Rebobt or Tint Boabd or Tbadk.— The com
mittee of the Board of Trade, consisting of F R
Brunot, Isaiah Dickey, and Geo. B. Jones, Esqs.
made a report yesterday, touching the proposed
, or peUlioned.for repeal of the Tonnage Tax.
This committee were appointed under the follow
ing resolutions, adopted on the sth instant:
Resolced t . That a committee bo hereby ap
pointed to inquire into the following questions,
Md report as soon os practicable their opera
tion on the business interests of Pittsburgh, and
suggest for the consideration of the Board such
remedies as may seem practicable for the evils
which may be found to exist, to wit:
Ist. Do - the Railroads of Pennsylvania dis
criminate against her citizens ?
2d. If ho, is the cause to be found In the three
mill taxt --
3d. Should that tax bo repealed? ’
The boardwaiin session nearly all of yester
day afternoon and the Committee mode an elabo
rate Teport, coveting some thirty pages of pa
per. This report is adverse to the proposed re
peal of the tax. The Committee have sought
with great diligence and success for facts bear
ing ou this important question and the report,
of the Committee is very full and clear. It Is
intimated in the course of this document that If
the manifest discrimination against Pittsburgh
by the great railway Company which controls
the route to the. east was removed and no door
left open for its renewal, this tax might be re--
pealed. GKcoorse we have no limw nor space to
give the report in full to night and do not choose
Sil?‘k° t of . a P a P er »o important as it
will be laid before the public in ezlenso in due
time.
The board did not acton the report yesterday,
but hoard and read and made come sSggeatioM

Friday dii ed ’ *“ d P robabr y acted on next
Fmsr Waim School Boann —The folio* ing
commanitatlon relntire to the School Board in
tno First Ward .will, we hope, conclude this pub
lic correspondence. We stated the simple fact
about this difficulty as we learned it—a matter
of pnhllo inlerest--on Thursday morning.
“Justice’’ explained one side of the question
and “Truth” responds in the subjoined commu
nication, upon the other. It certainly must be
phuo that when, twoso spotless witnesses appear
anil speak; the whole facts in the case are ont.
We hare only to add for ourselves that we know
nothing about the merits of the case, and have
no doubt tbereis an honest difference of opinion
in regard to a matter which Judge McClure
will settle to the entire satisfaction of both jus
tice and truth. Hero is the communication:
ilettrt. Editori Tho communication of
“Justice” in your valuable paper of Friday,
induced mo to enquire into the merits of tbc
case, that caused the School Directors of the
First Ward Public School to declare vacant the
seats of Andrew Miller and
said Board. Hut not willing to rely on hearsay,
I applied to the Secretary of tho Board and was
famished by him with tho minuto book, from
which I learn that at tho meeting to orgsnizo
the Board for the ensuing year, a question as to
whu was entitled to a seat in. the Board arose
between Henry Murphy and S. P. Collins. A
majority of (he Board snstained the claims of
Murphy, whereupon Messrs. Miller and Evans
withdrew,'«nd the minutes show further, that
they had not taken part in tho subsequent meet
ings, although (he were regularly notified by
the Secretary of each and every meeting.

Tub Norfolk Donation Thoßoard of Trade
hod, yesterday, laid before them a letter received
by Francis H. Severs, Esq., of this city, from
' Wo. H/ Bruno, of Baltimore. In the summer
of .1856, Mr. Brutie acted as Treasurer of the
fund for tho relief of sufferers by 'the epidemic
in Norfolk ‘ and Portsmouth, Vo. When the
effects of the epidemio hadceased,o balance was
left in Mr. Bruno's hands, which wna invested,
by recommendation of the Belief Committee, in
Baltimore City Stock, to await the probable re
turn of tho epidemic; bat as two rammers have
since passed with no. appearance of a return of
the scourge, Mr. B. does not wish to retain
longer tho remaining funds, unauthorized by
the givers. Those who remitted latest are those
of whom he asks advice, as the earlier donations
were all exhausted. A largo proportion of the
balance in hand was subscribed by Baltimore,
and the contributors there have authorized ihtir
donations to be held and applied for the erec
tion of a House of Befage for Female Children.

i a Ser^ea of notices of the different
schools and colleges in our cities from which we
select these:
--The Western Theological Seminary, in AHe-
k situated on the West Common.—
it originally stood on Seminary Hill, but wasde
stroyed by fire. The present edifice is very ca
pacious, and well adapted to its purpose. This
Institution was established in 1825 and opened
JH 1827. About four hundred and fifty students
have prosecuted their theological course in whole
or in part at this Beminary. Seventy-one of
he alumni of four hundred and forty-nine have
deceased. The faculty consists of four pro
fessora. The number of students of senior,
middle and junior classes, with resident mem
bers, reaches eighty-ono.
‘'The Theological Seminary of the Associate
Reformed Synod of the West is located in the
same facing tho latter, on West Com-
m j n ‘,^ lsinBtUntion ™ established in the
ytor 1820, and Rev. Joseph Kerr was chosen its
first professor. The present faculty consists of
Drs. Presiley, Clarke and Kerr. The institu
lion for several years received, a large legacy,
which enabled the trustees to errect the present
structure. It is 65 feet front by 55 feet deep.
Lecompton Rascalitt in Westebn Pennsyl
mania.—This personified sum of all villainies is
a crooked bantling and is not the cause of many
smiles to the poor and lonely few that still strive
to hold up the black banner of democracy in
Western Pennsylvania.
The Delegates to the 4th of March Harrisburg
Convention from Washington County are instruct
ed against Lecompton. They ore Col. Hopkins
and Wm. Workman.
At New Castle (no 'Convention of tho “Dim.”
of Lawrence Co., having been called!) the County
Committee got together and chose Lewis Taylor
Esq., and J. N. MeGaffin for Delegates. They
go for Lecompton of course. But even in this
little band there came near being a knock-down.
Enester of Uio Journal was down on the whole
thing.
At Waynesburg Greene Co., they held an im
mense meeting on the 22d in which the adminis
tration caught it right and left.
ThiefCauqht. —Hague, chief of police, arrest
ed a young man named Cody, lately clerk in the
storeof Hess & Smith, Market street. Uebad
a key with which it appears be was accustomed
to enter and lake what bo wanted. He tried to
pawn a lot of goods with O’Brien, but tho lat
ter s suspicions was aroused and Cody was
arrested. Bo was taken before the Mayor, and,
though stoutly protesting his innocence before,
when Mayor “Harry” got his eye on him, he
owned up. The goods were in a carpet sack,
and consisted of cloth, silk kerchiefs, shawls,
collar-, etc., to the amount of $32. This young
man has heretofore held u good character. He
is by birth a German. Ho was committed for
trial.
Railroad Route to PnTsnu&aH, Philadel
phia, Ac.—A connection of the several roads
between this city and Pittsburgh, Philadelphia
Ac., via Sidney and Bellefontaine, has been
made, by which, it is claimed, an important ad
tantage is gained, especially in freighting.—
Part ies representing theseveral roads composing
Ihe line, met last evening and agreed upon
terms nt which freights will be carried through
Tith as much despatchas by other routes. The

Litebabt Circle.— This (roly interestinc
association held Us regular monthly meeting last
evening at the Pittsburgh Female College, near
Christ s Chorch. We congratulate tboso parents
who have children attending that College, upon
the ample tokens which their children gave from
time to time of the thorough descipline, menial
and moral, which they enjoy. The intereet of
the people in that school was manifested last
evening by a full attendance and the various
literary performances, quite interesting in them
selves were rendered more eo by the music by
which the whole was enlivened.
A Roll akd a Slide—On Wednesday the 17th
5!?? ,_ m * n “if**** l in quarrying etone on the
hul bwk of FaUston, started and rolled a huge
atone down the bill, through a boose which stood
near the bottom, in which there was a woman
who made a narrow escape, the stone passing
within a few feet from where she was.
the same time, James Leaf, one of Ibe men
lost bis footing, and slipped to the bottom of the
faill, tearing nearly all the clothes off him and
lacerating his hands and other parts of his body

Ibos Citt Commercial College, Pittsdoroh,
Pa.—We were much interested *hls day in visiting
this popular and flourishing institution. The Fac
ulty of Teachers is very large, and comprised of gen
tlemen of the highest qualifications, baring large
experience as teachers and practical business men.
Four large halls aro at this time occupied by this ex.
tensive College, comprising about 300 students. The j
school is conducted with such care that students I
have all the advantages of business practice, and it I
is, in fact, amodel Counting Room. We lookod over I
the books of many of the stadonts and found that
the details of every class, of busimss were exempli*
fied and carried out In fall—everything being writ
ten up with die greatest care and precision. The
books of Mr. Jesse A. Heydrick. of Utica, Venango I
county, Pa., wore critically examined and found
complete in arrangement; written in a beautiful
business band, free from all school-boy flourishes and
without blot or erasure. Such books would compare
well with those of our best counting rooms. Yet
this young man by energy and close application,
following the instructions of his assiduous teachers
has acquired this thorough practical knowledge of
business in about- seven weeks,. Such an education j
as this is of incalculable importance to young men J
about eommendng a business life, and none should
be without IL We have no batter-suggestion to mikeJ
to our young men than to call and examine for thea-1
