In the Post of. Friday morning we noticed
the circumstances attending the appoint
ment of J. K. Edgerton, Esq., Of 'Fort
Wayne, the Vice President of the Company,
as Receiver, under an injunction granted in
the United States District Court of the
Northern-District of Ohio, which: was done
on Wednesday, upon application of certain
bondholderS of the Road," and the 'appoint
ment on Thursday of T. Haskins, Du Puy
Esq., the President pro tem. of the Road, as a
Sequestrator, by the District Court of Alle
gheny county, on the application of certain
domestic creditors here, "who were appre
hensive that their rights might be sacrificed
by the proceedings in the" Ohio court.
The gentlemen appointed, as Sequestra
tor and Receiver, have respectively issued
the subjoined circulars, in pursuance of the
designs of their appointments.
The circular of Mr. DuPuy, is as follows :
OFFICE OF THE
PITTSBURGH, FT. WAYNE tr. CHICAGO R. R. CO.}
Pittsburgh, Docember act, 1 8 59.
The Courts having 'issued a decree seques
trating the property and revenues of this
Company, and under said decree, having ap,
pointed T. Haskins Du Puy Sequestrator, you
aro hereby notified that all revenues due to
the said Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago
Railroad Company can only be collected by
and paid over to the Sequestrator, and all
business of the Company will be under his di
rection and control until further notice, all of
which you will duly perform.
That of Mr. Edgerton, is as follows :
Prrnmetton, Pa., December 9th, 1359.
To all whom it may concern
By orders made by the Circuit Court of the
United States, for the Northern District of
Ohio, at a stated term thereof, held at the city
of Cleveland, on the seventh and eighth days
of December, k. D. 1859, in a certain cause in
equity therein pending, wherein Charles Mo
ran and Louis A. Von Hoffman are complain
ants, and the Ohio and Pennsylvania Railroad
Company, and the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne
and Chicago Railroad Company;are defend
ants, the undersigned has been duly appointed
and has qualified as Receiver in said cause, and
all the powers enumerated in said order, in
cluding the power to take pcssession of, control
and operate said Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and
Chicago Railroad, from Pittsburgh to Chicago,
and receive its revenue in the name and
under the franchism of said Company, are
vested in him as said Receiver, and all direc
tors, officers, agents and servants of said Com
pany, will be held responsible to him accord
ingly.
It will be at once apparent that a conflict
of jurisdiction like this, in the financial af
fairs of the company must prove detrimental
to the interests of the creditors and share
holders of the company.
The Directors met yesterday to consider
what course might beat be pursued for the
protection of ail the parties in interest, but
we are informed have not yet matured any
plan ek . action. It is to be hoped that the
affairs of the road will not be permitted to
remain in their present condition. If the
bondholders and domestic creditors look to
their own interests and the interests of the
road, they will agree up6n some person as
Receiver for the whole road and agree upon
a just and equitable plan of appropriating
its earnings. The whole road should. be
manged by one party, for the mutual bene
fit of all parties in interest.
The present condition of affairs, with a
divided and conflicting management cannot
but result in loss to all interests.
In yesterday's Post we gave a report of the
proceedings in our District Court, under
which Mr. Du Puy.was appointed sequestra
tor. We remark that Mr. Du Puy gave
bonds in. the aunt of $300,000, while those of
Mr. 'Edgerton- were flied at only $75,000.
We also correct the Plainde“lcr's statement,
that Mr. Edgerton is of 'Pittsburgh. His
place of residence is Fort Wayne, Indiana.
The order of the Ohio Court, it will be
perceived, brings the Sequestrator and the
Receiver in direct collision, so far at least as
the property of the Company in Pennsylva
nia is concerned. He is required by the
order; to'tkke posession of "all'the proper
ty of the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chi
cago Railroad Company." If the Receiver.
should attempt to take possession of the
property of the Company in this State, we
presume our State Courts would sustain the
action of the officer of their own appoint
ment, and resist to the list extent of their
authority, any interference of the Receiver
appointed by the Courts of another State.
We hope, however, that before the pres
ent session of the Board of Directors has
closed, that some plan may be agreed upon
which shall be . ..satisfactory to all parties and
place the Road throughout its entire length
under a single management.
The following is the article from the Plum
dealer to which we allude:
THE PITTSBURGH, FORT WAYNE AND CHICAGO
RAILROAD IN THE HANDS OF A RECEIVER.
In the 'United States Circuit Court, before
Judge Wilson, in the case of Charles Moran
and Louis A. Von Hoffman, of New York, vs.
the Ohio and•Pennsylvanis Railroad Company
and the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago
Railroad Companyran application for the ap
pointment of a Receiver was made yesterday
afternoon and argued by the counsel of both
parties. Henry Stanbury, HoOking Hunter
and Ranney, Backus and Noble are solicitors
for the complainants, and Judge Andrews tip
peered for the defendants.
the motion was granted, and Mr. Josrph
K. Edgerton, of Pittsburgh, appointed such
Receiver. He is required to give bonds in

THE PHILADELPHIA UNION IVIEEt.
The Union - meeting in Jaynes' Hell, in
Philadelphia, on Wednesday night., was a
most powerful manifestation of , public anti;
ment. It was, Bays the Ledger, another evr
deuce of the power and determination of the
people, when once aroused to action by events
which come home to their feelings and their
interests. It was an immense gathering of
the wealth, the influence, the patriotism of
Philadelphia—a general outpouring of the
merchant, the manufacturer, the mechanic and
the intelligent operatives, all of whom go to
make up the real strength of society and whore
opinions constitute t c fie public sentiment which
controls all the• movements of that society,
and are the foundations - of public order and
public law. But one sentiment pervaded that
immense- throng of eiti'iens, and that senti
ment was the integrity of the Union, and the
faithful performance of all the obligations as.
sumed under the Constitution, and which are
necessary to preserve it. The resolutions are
moderate in their tone, firm in their expres
sions of fidelity to obligations, deprecatory of
acts and sentiments which carry alarm into
neighboring communities, and approbatory of
the public measures taken by Virginia to pun
ish the lawless invaders of her territory. The
speeches aro in the same excellent spirit, ac
knowledging the rights of the several States,
and the duty of each to respect those rights,
and to avoid any acts which tend to impair
he sense of security which every State should
reel in the Union. The warm responses which
_ . _
DEC. 10
were given to these expressions of opinion
showed that it was no manufacturedientiment
but the real feeling of an intelligent, patriotic
and moral people, who feel 11(:w much they are
indebted for thoir prosperity to that national
Union and national government.
Speeches were made by non. Joseph R. In
gersoll, Judge King, Isaac Ilazlehurst, Robt.
Tyler, Col. James Page, and others.
Jaynes' Hall being inadequate to contain
the large numberpresent, an impromptu meet
ing organized in front of Jones' Hotel. The
street was completely packed with a living
mass, extending nearly to Seventh street on
the West, and half way to Sixth street on the
East. The balcony in front of the Am.&
Hotel opposite was crowded, and the avenues
of the Arcade were also thronged with specta
tors—the whole numbering many thousands.
Although it rained heavily, speeches were
made by Richard Vaux, Edward H. Welk!,
Benjamin Gerhart, John C. Bullet, Henry
M. Fuller, Wm. P. Hilliard, of Alabama, and
John 11. Jones, of Now Jersey.
OUR ENPORTHE NORTH .% N D
The amount of produce exported from the
United States for the htst fiscal year amounts
to $278,392,050, not including specie, which
amounted to 557,5i1 - 2,315, making a t<,tal-o
$335,894,385. The free States furnished o

which are just furnished from official source
and published in the Washington Ciii.stitutiwi
show that of the entire exportation of the
country, the free States furnish exclusively
;5,281,091; free and slave States V , 41,117,-

free States in common, one-third is estimat

bor, WlLking the entire amount of 51,1 14 1,-
00; out of $`2.78,3€12, (t O. as the products of
slave labor.
These figures do not look as though the
South was so poor and so entirely dependent
upon the North as electioneering politicians
would have us believe. The productive:
energies of the South have alwayslieon under
estimated at the North. In case the an
tagonism which the Republicans of the
North have aroused, should result in dis
union, the South would be found quite as
self-reliant and independent as the North.
The Cleveland Plaindealer gives an account
of the appearance of the spirit of Old °sea
wattomie at a spiritiial circle in that city. Lie
manifested himself by ponderous knocks on a
kitchen table.
. _
When asked how he was received in the Spirit
world he said, or rather rapped (by alphabet,)
"first rate." Jefferson, .1 ae kson, Washing
ton and all the old Apostles of Democracy had
told him that his " earthly career was closed
in a halo of glory." It appears that these old
patriots are anxious observers of passing events
on earth, and they assure Brown that what
they labored all their lives to avert, to wit, is
dissolution of the Union, they now consider
inevitable. If a Black Republican President
is elected he never will be allowed to be in
' augurated us the President of these United
States. The South will break up the Confederacy
and leave the Union in a lxxly. They will have
a President, Cabinet, Congress and Union of
their own ; and if any attempts are made by a
Black RepublicamPresident to exercise author
ity under the present constitution over them,
it will be resisted unto blood ! If a Democrat

A. LARGE picture gollery, collected by
Count Bradbcck, at a cost of $360,000, and
known as the " Soder Gallery," was recently
soldin thecity of Hanover. It was gathered to
•Lether by the original owner in the latter part
o the last century, and included, besides the
works of Raphael Correggio, and Titian,
chiefly those of Flemish, Dutch, and German
masters. The pictures lately full into the bands
of the head of the Catholic branch of the old
Stolbergfamily by marriage with a daughter of
Count Bradbeck. The gallery sold for about
$70,000. A small Raphael, seven and a half
inches long, brought $7OOO, and a Correggio
$3,500; The former picture was bought in by
the owner who at the last moment decided that
he could not part with it.

LETTER FROM WASHINGTON
WAstusaroN,,Dec. 8, 1859 ,
Three days of the session gohe, and but two
ballotings for speaker ; and those attended
with no result promising a speedy issue.,—
From the first it became decidedly probable
that the Republicans would organize the
House. The resolution introduced by Clarke,
of Missouri, to the effect that no man.who
sanctioned the sentiments of Helpers book was
worthy to be speaker, was a blow, aimed not
merely at Sherman, but followed up, as it ,has
been by inflamatory speeches from Southern
members, was used as the most leasable mess•
ure for preventing the combinations essential
to the success of the Republicans in their at
tempt to elect a speaker. The passions of
members havO been purposely roused, and the
excitement is just at the stage, that if certain
men should vote for the Republican candidate,
there is reason to apprehend violence. The
" slate " I gave you on the 28th ult 7, is unbro
ken, but Bocoek cannot be elected to the speak
ership now. I will not, however, pretend to
prophecy,for the result will probably be known
to your readers by the time this letter is in
type.
Senators Wilson, Trumbull, Fessindon
Co., terve not dared to avow the doctrines of
extreme Abolitionism, and have been com
pelled to denounce Brown's insurrection, and
Helper's treason. Their mouths would be shut
now, but for the absurd course of some few
southern Senators and tnembers,who assert their
belief that the great majority of the Northern
men are Abolitionists and fanatics. Such iras
cible tire-eaters as Iverson, Brown, Kcitt, and
Crawford.are doing more to keep the Republican
party from being dashed to pieces than all the
smooth speeches of their own party lenders in
Congress, yet the Indications are that the Re
publican party is on the eve of dissolution.--
The more national and conservative among
them will refuse to follow longer the leaders,'
whose traitorous counsels have involved
the party in the odium of Brown's trea
son, and helper's misprision of trewom
The Abolitionists, with numbers considerably
augmented, will rally under their own leaders
and with their own satanic banners streaming,
will go to their old camps The wen of u stump
similar to Corwin in Ohio, Banks in New
England, and Blair in NI i”ouri, will rally
under some leader, tainted with the odorous
unction of K now Nothingism in the hope of
bringing to his support the odds and ends of
old whiggery, esis,,ially in the Smithern rind
Middle states. Bates of Misouri is now talk
dof as their candidate but'' o .abi it might
ie Bard: , or Fillmore, for aught we know.

Another Kline 'Expedition.
The Boston Journal announces the organiza

pursuing the explorations of Dr. Kane, which
will probably start in the spring, and bo under
the command of Dr. Hayes, the surgeon of the
Kane expedition. The amount required is
about $30,000, and liberal subscriptions have
already been made. Many of the scientific
societies are actively enlisted in the enterprise,
and have appointed committees to promote it.
Dr. Hayes is led to undertake the command by
his confidence in the correctness of the views
entertained by Dr. Kane, whose verifications
was only prevented by a series of extraordi

[From the N. Y. Timm)
The Removal of NapOleOn's ReMalltS.
When it was first reported, a year ago, that
the Emperor contemplated removing the body
of the first Napoleon from the Invalides to the
Cathedral of St. Penis, and of establishing
there, the future burying place of the Bona
parte dynasty, most people gave little credit to
the report. The Legitimists however, were fu
rious at the mere mention of such a desecration
of the sacred cathedral ; the Orleanlsts were
doubly furious, because a Bonaparte would not
only be a desecration in the royal burying
place, but because the idea and the work of
Louis Phillippe lit the Invalides were to be
disregarded and destroyed; the Republicans
laughed, and the Bonapartists shook their
heads in silence. What was but a year ago a
conjecture, has become to-day a certainty.
The gorgeous crypt of the Invalides, which
cost nearly $2,000,000, the immense monolith
of porphyry and the sarcophagus of the same
costly stone, destined to hold the remains of
the exile of St. Helena, all these are to be car.
tied piece by piece:to St. Denis, and there re-er
rocted in the trunscept of the church consecra
ted to the Bourbon's and the Orleanists. Work
men have been engaged for more than a year
in this old cathedral, but they weresupposed to
be employed simply in its restoration. It
how appears, however, that all the rich tombs
of the dead monarchs are to be brought out of
the ignoble corners in which they have been
stowed away for centuries in the basement .of
the church, to be placed on the floor above.
The Napoleon dynasty (commencing with the
Duke of Reichstadt) are to occupy the tran
sept ; Napoleon 1. will occupy a magnincent
tomb, constructed from the materials at the
Invalides, under this left branch of the tran
sept, and apart front the rest; the Bourbons and
all those already buried in the basement, will
be placed in the side chapels of the nave and
choir, in a position inflnately more appropriate
than that they now occupy, for there is not a
grocer in Paris of moderate wealth who does
riot bury himself more grandly than are these
ancient monarchs and signors.
It has been the subject of surmise these five
vearsever since the tomb of Invalides was
finished —why the body of Napoleon was not
placed in the sarcophagus. The explanation
is now evident. Napoleon 111. has all this
time had the intention of placing his uncle,
himself, and his dynasty, under the sacred roof
of St. Denis, among the kings who ruled Franca
by divine right: and therfore, it was not
deemed proper to place him formally in the
grand crypt of the Invalides, to be removed
again. Thus the body has been kept
hidden sway ever since its arrival from
St Helena, in a side chapel, to which the pub
lic hare never been admitted. When the ca
thedral of St. Denis is prepared for the change
the body of the Duke of Rciehsteidt will be no
doubt delivered up by Austria, rind then the
two bodies—father and 391 i, will be carried tb
St Denis, in the midst of one of those magnifi
cent pageants which appear necessary to the
life of the freneli people. If, however, the
Bourbon , , or even the tirleanists. should ever
eon., back to pottier again, they will pitch all
that into the ,treat without ceremony, and pro
, eod to cleanse out the sw2red temple, by the
burning of incense and the repetition of endless
masses

As indication to the reader of the character

Kansas IKlectiou,
Not much will be known, for several days,
of the result of the Kansas election, which oc
curred on Tuesday, the 6th instant. The can
vass excited considerable feeling in the terri
tory, every point being hotly contested ; but
outsiders have pretty nearly given up all special
concern for that people. Wo believe that no
Democrat of very wide fame, from any of
the States was in Kansas assisting on the
stump or otherwise. Several Republican
orators, from New England and various
other sections took a part. What the re
sult finally Is, can only, at this time be con
jectured. It is almost too much to exkiect, but
still we have strong hope that Kansas is at last
Democratic.
Foreign Imports.
Tho forei g n imports at New York for the
month of November were nearly fifty per
cont. greater than for the corresponding total
of last year, and wore also considerably in ex
cess of the corresponding total for either of the
previous years. An unusually largo propor
tion of the imports, both in dry goods and
general merchandize, wore entered directly for
consumption, showing that the market has not
been over-stocked. The exports from New
York for foreign ports for the month of No
vember, show a very large gain upon the total
for November, 1868, but are not as large, ex
clusive of specie, as the corresponding total
for 1857.
Liverpool and Virginia.
The merchants of Richmond, Va., seem to
be in earnest about establishing a line of pack
ets
between that port and Liverpool. On Sat
urday, in public meeting, they. unanimously
agreed to form '!'Virginia. and Liverpool
Packet Company," with a capital of $150,000
"divided into three hundred shares of $5OO each,
as well-as to purchase at once four ships of suf
ficient rise to carry about 4,000 hogsheads of

Ravemoyer, or his frietilis,s2o,ooo,and Opdyke
$15,000. Total, three Mayoralty candidates,
$75,000.
If to this be added, the sums spent by, and
contributions levied upon, the various candi
dates for Aldermen, Councilmen, Corporation
Council, Alois house Governor and School offi
cers, the aggregate probably will not fall short
of a quarter of a million of dollars.
Of course, the calculation is, on the part of
the patriots who thus bleed, that if successful,
they will be able to re-imburse themselves from
the city treasury, in some way or other—so
that, in the long run, it is "We, the People,"
who have to foot the bill, after all.
How the House Looks.
The members of the last Congress, at the
close of the last session, ordered the removal
of the desks. in the House. There has been
some difference of opinion as to the utility of
this change. "Ion," the correspondent of the
Baltimore Sun, says the appearance of the house
on Monday was very interesting. The galler
ies were thronged by an orderly and good-look
ing crowd. Themembers, while the roll was
called, kept their seats, and looked Snore like a
grave, calm and deliberative body tharlisthey
ever did before under the old arrangement.
The seats will, if tried long enough, he says,
never be exchanged for the old plan of chairs
and desks
The whole country between GaudsSajara and
Topic is a perfect waste ; the ranchos, haciendas,
and villages are entirely deserted, and the only
sign of life you meet with on the road is an
occasionab band of mounted robbers, who de
scend from the mountains to attack some soli
tary traveler, or visit the deserted villages, in
hopes that the inhabitants, in their flight, may
have left behind some forgotten saddle, rope or
sombrero. The doors of the houses have been
beaten down by the axe, or if they proved of
too tough material for the lazy " landlord" to
destroy them by such means in a few minutes,
they have been burnt by heaping before them
piles of straw or dried leaves, so as to give an
easy admittance to the robber.

Immense Demand for Stamps.
