DAILY POST • A Settlenient at Last. It is at length announced, evidently by authority, that the railroad debt of Alle ,gheny county, amounting in the aggre gate toover $1,000,000, has been compro inised.. At the last session of the Legis lature a bill was passed, giving the county authority,undercertain conditions to corn .promise with the b'indholders and issue new bonds'for those held by the latter.— The terms of compromise proposed by this act were submitted to the. attornes for the bondholders here, and, after du y sk consideration, they recommended, their elicnta to accept the proposed basis, as the best the county' could offer un der the circustances. mberSome ne gotiation between Mr. Lat and the bohnciholders folioed, resulting in the acceptance of the terms offered, and the compromise of the entire debt of the county, amounting with interest, as e t a . ted, to over $3,000 000. The terms of the compromise are, that the county shall is sue new bonds for the old, bearing ,five per cent interest and having fifty years to run. Bonds shall also be issued for the back in terest and for the judgments obtained ligainitt'the county, bearing five per cent. interest, and having twenty years to run.

Cast have been appointed Trustees to see that the arrangement is fairly and fully carried out. :The terms are quite as favorable as could be expected and will, we think, sat• isl all; and every good citizen will rejoice that a subject which was for so longs bone of, contention among us is now finally diiposed of. We have no doubt that the interest on the new bonds will be met promptly .and thus all trouble for the fu • tore be avoided, There is also a fair longof the city indebtedness being ere long arranged in a manner equally satis factory. . • mportant Revenue Decision.

Harper &Bros., New York, have commenced the publication of a "Picto rial History of the Great Rebellion in the United States," which, from the numbers we have seen, promises to be a very vain. able work. It is edited by a writer in ev ery way qualified for the task and will be a full and correct history of the present bwsx. It is issued in semimonthly num ers, at twenty five tents each consist ing of twenty-four pages of the size of Harper's Weekly, and finely illustrated 'with portraits, maps, plans and views.— The work *ill probably be brought up to the present time in the course of a year. This will afford a good history of the re• bellion at a small price. Miner, Fifth street, has it for sale. Bonnets. A New York paper remarks that there is a deeided change in the shape and style of the Frzinch imported bonnets. They are smaller, the large crowns have alto gether disappeared, and there is a slight depression at the top of the brim. Occa aionally, soft Crowns are seen on hats of illusion, silk or crape, and are generally covered with a square fanchion lace. The novelty of the season is the high crown ed fancy hat of drabi black or white straw, with a brim slightly raised at the sides and depressed back and front.— They are worn almost universally in Lon don and Paris, by ladies of all ages, and are so useful for travelling, country arid sea-side wear, that they can hardly fail to be successful here also. Straw will be the most popular material for Summe r wear, in plain brades, the fanciful being alto gether conflneil t k i the beautiful straw trimmings, which are made in great varie ty, of ribvel and crtrious designs. Sorue of these are in the form of harps, others crosses, bagles, flies, bugs, beetles, ger- Outs' and tie like.

Wayne and Chidago Railroad Collnpany, Allegheny city. This building is on a heavy stone foundation, with a high brick story, is 900 feet around and 300 feet across, being one of the- largest in the United States. We understand that the company will, shortly erect a large grain elevator in Allegheny city, which is much needed. But few railroads are in a more flourishing condition than this. Last year they added 50 new locomotives, built 300 new and buht 150 freig yet wi all this thei o r rolling stockht iscars; tax el to the utmost. Of live hock they carried,in 1862, 52,000 head •of cattle and 347,000 hogs.— The increase in receipts for March, 1863, over 1862, is $165,000, or 56 per cent., and we undeestand that this month will show a still larger increase. Much credit is dne to Gen. Geo. W. Oass, the President, for his energy and business talents in bringing about this re sult. From appearances, both the tax payers and anti-tax-payers will, in a little while, be relieved from any burden, so far as the I3oard is concerned. What would our manufactures, merchants and citizens have :done a ithont this outlet from oar city? All would have been dependent on some little "stern-wheel" boat which the government had not "gobbled up," for the receiving and shipping of all our freight. ,Under the skillful management of those now at the head of this road tax aers, Property holders and all others will p say it is a good outlay. Weslso perceive that an addition is now going np to the Bradley Woollen Fantory,in Allegheny city, on the river bank, just be low the Suspension bridge. The factory, when completed, will have a front on the 'river of 120 feet. running 70 feet back, three stories high. The whole will be used in the manufacture of cloth for army purposes and other woolen goods. At the head of Beaver street and North Common, Allegheny, the United Presby terian Church are finishing a large and handsome Gothic brick building for their congregation, for which they deserve great credit, as it is quite an ornament to the city.

It is in contemplation to extend the track of the Allegheny Valley Railroad to the water works, so that the coal used there may be dropped at the works instead of having to be hauled thither from the depot as i 3 now the case. This would enable the coal dealers to deliver the coal much cheaper than under the present arrange ment, so that the city will save enough in a very short time on her cbal contracts to pay for the proposed extension.
