The excess of gross-earnings in 1801, over

ings, for the same period, 11 $11,469 34. The
expenses of operation were 48.53 per cent, of
earnings.
We quote from the report as follows The
business of the company during the fiscal
year just terminated, has exceeded, to a very
considerable extent, that of any former term,
as shown by the foregoing analysis. Tour
road has, in common with all others, been the
recipient of liberal revenue during the season
of organization of the now vast armies.
Shipments of crude and refined oil to and
from the various refineries on the line, and of
the same article through south, have advanc
ed materially during the past six months.
Indications are favorable that this advance in
revenue from oil transportation shall continue
permanently."
The business in oil is thus summed op :
Bbls. crude oil, carried through 12;605
" " • way, (south).... 2,762
" (north).— 9,627
" refined oil, from way stations to
Pittsburgh 20,351
The total earnings from the above source
were $8,057 64.
The operations of the past year are then
compared with those of former years, in an
elaborate manner, exhibiting the prospects of
the road in a very encouraging light.
The Presidenkeoncludes by alluding to his
appointment by the General Government, in
connection with the management of railways,
hie acceptance of the position, and thanks the
stockholders for their kindness and confidence
exhibited on all occasions,
The report was listened to with interest,
and accepted by the meeting.
• An election was then gone into for Presi
dent and Managers, but np till three o'cloek
the result had not been announced. There
are several tickets, upon two of which the
voting Is quite Spirited. One of those is sup
ported by the old managers of the road, and
the other is sustained by those favorable to a
change of management. The 'adherents of
the first.. named party contend that a large
amount of 'hick has been purchased by a
banker in the interest of the other party, and
parneled out so as to secure a large number'of
votes ; while on the ether hand it is claimed
that all the stock is represented fairly, and
fully entitles the holder to a vote. Notwith
standing thit, over one hundred choral had
-been rejected by the Judges up till 3 O'clock,
who are charged with partiality towarde the
old managers. As may be imagined, the eon•
test is exceedingly sharp and spirited. The
following are the two tickets alluded to :

"In behalf oldie lusdies'.Union Aid Society,

ladies and gentlemen of Pittsburgh, who have
aided your Society to forward us such liberal'
contributions. So many of our donors seem
to think a shirt one pair of, drawers, and,
socks, are all tha t a , sick soldier needs, they"
forget they are men, with all the cravings of
sickness and dependence, and you would feel
compensated for yenr efforts in behalf of oar
sick, could you see the gratitude with' which
these comforts and delicacies are received.
The day your boars arrived some of our la
dies had just returned Item a visit to Benton
Barracks, where they bad spent the day in the
hospitals. They found the Second lowa Cav
alry in the greatest suffering—two were
dying, and ten others very low, and .others
arriving as fast as they-could provide bode for
them. We promised to give them a dozen of
bed-ticks, pillows, blankets and mil:alert/161es,
and any other things. they might need, which
we were able to supply from your boxes which
I assure you, they received most gra tefully.
So you see where a portion of your. goods are.
I can hear the pleadings of those poor sol
diers ringing in my, ears yet, bane:thing us to

THSATILICAL Mll2lllloZ.—On Saturday quite
a throng of parsons were attracted to Christ
Church, Baltimore, by the merry chimes of
the belle, which indicated that something
other than the usual religious worship was
about to take plate'. The theatrical profession
was largely reptesented, and in due time two
persons made their appearance before the al
tar, to pledge to each other their lives and
their happiness. Those parties were Mr. C.
B. Bishop, principal comedian at the 'lonia'' ,
Street Theatre, and Miss Josephine Parkes,
of the same establishment. The ceremony,
according to the' rites of the Episcopal Church,
was performed, 'after which the happy, pair
received the congratulations of their friends,
and departed to enter upon the pathway of
life in spheres entirely different from those
in which they hale "hitherto walked.
Hestru or visa ARIAT.—A gentleman, wil
ting from Washington, says : "The new hos
pitals for the use . of the army have been built
and are now ready for nse. They are capable
of accommodating several thousand patients,
and are arranged with all the modern lm.,
provemants. The health of the army has
greatly improved. The statistics for the past
two weeks show that deaths are fairer, and
that disease is on the decrease. The stories
In Northern papers in relation to small-pox
here were greatly exaggerated. A reference
to the record at the Eruptive Fever Hospital
shows but two deaths from that disease in the
last week, and a very limited number (Scans
beside, none of iwhich were .of a malignant
type."

continues to goon, the six hundred thousand
of the army may be well armed by summer.
One regiment that had passable Enfield rifles,
were loth at Ant to exchange them for the
Springfield grooved musket of latest platens',
but they now safest the superiority of the
latter. It is Coned In practice that grooving

SESNION.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 4, I SG2
Susie.—Mr. Sllolllor, of Muse, presented
the petition of the manufacturer* of steam
machinery at Boston, against the bill reduc
ing the grade of engineers on ships.
Mr. Howard, of Mich., presented the reio
lotion of the Legislature of Michigan, asking
the passage of a law to punish frauds on the
Treasury. Also, a resolution passed by the
same Legislature in, favor of a direct tax ac
cording to property. Referred. Also; a remo
tion by the same Legislature against . the
sale of intoxicating! liquors to offieers of the
arm
Mr.,
y .; Sumner, [ruin the Committee on For
eign Affairs, reported a bill authorising the
appointment of diplomatic representatives to
the Republics of Liberia and Hayti. -
Mr. Pomeroy, of Kansas, asked to take up
the resolution of inquiry,. offered yesterday,
relative to the command of.the Kansas De
partment ; calling on the
to'
of War
for copies of his orders to that Command;
whether it was to be commanded by General
Lane, and whether ..the orders had been
changed since General- Lane left Washington;
and whether the recent order of General Hun
ter was &wording to the orders oFtlie Depart
ment
Mr. Carlite, of Virginia; hoped that the
resolutionewoold lie' over'; that there" were
some good reasons why it.should pans.
Mr. Pomeroy said the resolution was offered,
according to a suggestion of the Secretary of
War.
Mr..Carlite wanted to know what action
Congress proposed to take. Did Congress
propose to take the direction of the war ? If
the resolution was in accordance with a sug
gestion of the Secretary; of War, he should
oppose it, however. The resolution was then
passed.
Mr. Hale, N. IL, moved to take up the bill
providing for iion'clad steamers. Agreed to.
Mr. Hale proposed to withdraw- both the
iimendments of the Committee and asked the
Senate to make the bill the - special order of
Friday, when he intended to address the Sen
ate on the Report of the Naval Committee on
the Secretary of the. Navy.. The bill' could
then be passed as pit came from the House.
Mr.- Morrill, of Maine, o said the bill' pro
posed to build 'twenty iron Clad - stearueri.
'This style of naval architecture was yet on-
tirely an experiment. France' and-England
are trying the experiment, and the- Board_ of.
Admiralty has reported its imams as doubt-.
fol. There were no rolling mills in the coun
try that could do the work, and probably, the
work could not be done in twelve months.. He
opposed the whole thing as impracticable.
Mr. Halo, of N. H., said that he was inform
ed that the boats could be built in live months,
and were strongly recommended by the Exec
, utive Department and the Secretary of War.
Mr. Grimes, if lowa, was surprised at the
information given by the Senator from Maine.
The only instance whore iron clad boats had
been under fire was in the Crimea, whom the
French vessels went within 800 yards of the
fort, and being exposed to a heavy . lire receiv
ed but little damage, while they des troyed. the
417,858 00
. .
fort. Ile believed the introduction Of steam
altered the whole system of coast defences.
Eight thousand shot had been fired by the
rebels at the vessels coming op theviver bore
and only one vessel was materially damaged.
Mr. Cowan, , ot Ps., had some doubts about
ordering steam iron -clad
. ships, but ha. was
willing to vote the money and let the Presi
dent take the responsibility.
Mr. Clark, of. Rhode Island, moved to re
commit the bill to the Naval Committee.
Agreed to.
Mr. Wilson, from the Committee on Military
Affairs, reported a : bill to define tho pay and
emoluments of officer* of the army, ea a sub
stitute for the original bill. .
Mr. Pomeroy introduced a bill to aid in
constructing the Railroad and Telegraph
lines to the Pacific. .Referred.
The ease of Senator Bright was. then
taken up.
Messrs. Browning, Dixon, and Doolittle,
argued in favor of the Imp:LI:lion of .Bright.
Mr. Wiley, of Virginia, said, to regard to
this letter, he did not think the exouses of
the Senator were unreasonable. Be. might
have believed there would be no- war Orr the
let of March, but he called the particular at-
Motion or the Senator to the explanations ha
wished him to make to the principle declared_
in the `letter written in September. There
could be no doubt then as to the state of the
country. The Senator had declared that he
was alitays opposed to sebession, yet he de
clared in that letter, and re-declares here, 'on
thofi•or.of-theSinitfa:4ll•44ol3,99°,ed to
alfeoereion- Ile shouldleseive his 'deil'alon .
,
till he heard from the Senator on that *point.
Mr. Bright'sold If the Sena/it/would permit
ha would react two resolutions :Which had been
passed at i,large political mee dig in . Indiana,
in January last, which embodied his senti
ments. They were as follows:
Resolved, That in this national emergency,
the. Democracy of Indiana banish all feeling
of passion or resentment, and will recollect
only their duty' to the whole country ; that
this war should not -be waged in a spirit of
conquest and subjugation,- nor for the purpose
of overthrowing the rights of the Southern
States, bat to defend and maintain the suprem
acy of the Constitution, and preserve the
Union with all the dignity, equality ..and
rights of the several States unimpaired. •
Resolved" That as soon as these objects are
accomplished the war ought to cease; that we
will sustain with all our energies the war far
the Constitution and the integrity of the
Union, but are opposed to a war for the eman
cipation of the negroes or the subjugation of
the Southern States.
Mr. Bright said, that'is far as these reeoln
tions go, they comprised hie platform. If he
was turned out of this body, he .proposed en.
these resolution so go again before the people
who had so long and so often honored .him.
Mr. Wiley said be mint ask the Senator
still further todeSne what he did Mean by the
statement that he was entirely opposed to so
ercion, when the country is in danger,.and the
rebels were trying to overthrow the govern
ment.
Mr. Sumner, of Mass., made an elaborate
speech, maintaining his previous arguments
in support of the resolution of expuliton, and
reviewing the debate. Regarding the defence
of Mr. Bright, he said it afforded ample
ground for regret if not condemnation. It
showed offensively the same spirit which is
found in the original letter. •
After a brief reply from Mr. Davis to per
sonal allusions made by Sumner, the Senate
wont into executive session, and subsequently
adjourned.
notam—The Ronk; went into . committee
on the Treasury bill..
Mr. Morrill, of Vt., said this measure was
urged by Mr. Spaulding sea - war measure of
necessity. lie did not think hostilities would
be of snob a long continuance, for,..with the
melting of the snow and ice, our armies would
rush toward the gulf to crush the rebels. Men
of the East will only ask for' n opportunity
to leave off etthetsand try what virtue there
Is in steel. - e bad ho fear of results: We
can close the war by "the 13th of lultnext,
as well as in thirty years, thereby economis
ing blood; as well -as treasure. - If this pa
per money is a war'inessure, it is not waged
against the enemy, who may grin with delight.
Be would as soon provide Chinese wooden guns
for tbe army as paper money. 'What we most
need it money: He objected to the • bill be
cause of its utter impolicy. • Contracts have

posed by the first metion of the bill, and the
consequence will be,:that the cost of carrying
on the war will increase 'by the augmentation
of the cost of supplies--ein inflation of cur
rency would be incredible.
. Mr. Merrill argued at length to show, the
evil effects of making these, nets, legal en der. If -tbisslionld be done . iwe will not be
able to minima our steps,but must.go on. If
the bill be passed, it should first be - emended

to the state of the war, be said that Gin. Mc-
Clellan must harvest the advantages within
the next ninety days ; otherwise he will be
gasetted as a gentleman but nut general.
fir. Roscoe Conkling,of N. _Y., spoke against
a great banking scheme about to be introduc
ed, the design of which seemed to be to pre
, vent the local banks from resuming specie
, payment. It seemed to be the design in high
quarters to preach a crusade against the
banks, thereby raising a prejudice against
them. He proceeded to give his reason why
he should-vote against any attempt, by leg
islation to make aught, but gold and silver a
legal tender. The propositien was a new
one. No precedent for it could be found, and
besides it was unconstitutional. 'Every, at
torney, agent, trustee, commission merchant,
or any other person acting in a financial cher
seter' whoever received said money, will re
lieve himself by buying up the spurious cur
rency. EverybOdyavill do it who is not more
honest than .Congreas. Such a scheme was
never thought of, evert under Jamea Bu,
chanan and. Monroe Edwards. , Passing by
all legal and moral obligations, and looking
at the queition in Its pecuniary aspect, it is
utterly undeserving of otedit,,and should - be
'shunned, and regarded as a fraud and folly.
The floodgates of dishonesty would be open ed ,bir making this paper a legaltender. Here =
joined that the Legislature of New York had
put its seal on this swindle by a vote of al
most two to one.
Binglikto, of Ohio, in' replying to Mr.
Pendleton said ,that Daniel Webster . did as
sert the proposition that the government of
the United States may authorise the issue of
paper money is currency. The Constitution
was made for one people, with one destiny,
that is money.. In every country beneath
the sun the sovereignty shall declares money
within the liMite of its jurisdiction. , Shells
and hides-as wallas gold and silver have been
money money. The sovereignty here is known
as the people of the United States 'of,a
and has thepower to determine what shall ho
money, or in other words, the standard of
value and the medium for facilitating the ex
change of commodities, arid'srliat shall be the
legal tender in payment of delus. .A . govere-
lent without this .power . would be fno.gov
ernmenteit all. • He.farilier argued the con
atitutional question,: and , said nothing_ecer
ices a legal tender, exeepting. what was mid()
enekby express proclaims of the law.:' The
Constitution nowhere declares 'What shall be
a legal tender - in the discharge of obligations.
He did not like the phraseology in the bill
that these issues shall be redeemable -at the
pleasure of the United States.: They shOuld
be redeemable at a certain day in the legally
established, measure or, value.
Mr. Sheffield, of H. 1., quoted the words of
Webster: "There can be no legal tender but
gold and . silver, and foreign coins, regulated
by law." "They had all sworn to supix,rt;the
Constitution: Let them beware '
and keep
within"the pure meaning_Of that obligation.
He was further opposed to making•the notes
proposed to be issued a legel tender,, because
it waslisbonost, and thatwas reason enough
for him. This bill wouldlotorfete with the
local hooka, and produce distresses Which it
required no seer to foretell. , To: us , he s aid;
and we will cheerfully pay, but pass this
measure containing the legal tender clause,
and you will deprive us of the ability to pay.
The ComMittse then rose.
Mr. .Wickliffe '
of Kentucky, gave notice
that, if be could obtain the floor to-Morrow,
he would move to-close the debate by -reliev
ing the country by a final action on the bill.
Adjourned.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.—Some time ago the
House called upon the Secretary of War to
inform them why certain troops in this vicin
ity were not provided with arms. A response
has been transmitted, saying that a portion of

none, in the Arsenal they were willing to re
