MONDAY MORNING, F'EB. 22, 1864 Adjourned Road Meeting Agreeably to adjournment, a number of citizens met at the Merchants' Ex change on Saturday afternoon to take into consideration the almost impassable condition of the various plankroads, turnpikes, &c., leading to and from the city, Mr. Dilworth in the chair. M. B. Brown, chairman of a commit tee appointed at the last meeting, report ed a draft of a bill to be presented to the Legislature, having for its object the affording community speedy and effec tual relief from the evils complained of, the present mode of precedure under legislative enactment being entirely in adequate for the purposes designed. The bill has been drawn with consid erable care and ability, and if passed in to a law, and faithfully carried into prac tical execution, will go far to correct all the evils 'complained of. It sets forth the manner in which all e.:rporate roads may be proceeded against in case they are not kept in proper condition for safe and easv ace). The third t - tet lion of the bill proposes to increase the present rate of tolls upon all roads complained of with a view of enabling the stockholders to put their roads in order, and afterwards keep them in a proper state repair. It seems that. the managers of snid roads complain that the present tat,: or tolls are inade quate to keep th. mhi repair. It is also propo,ed to make the rate of tolls upon all roads uniform. This section gave rise to some discussion, but was passed without a dissenting voice. Section fourth makrs it obligatory upon all roads to pnbligh in one or more Pittsburgh piers :t fait hfurexhibit of their financial condition yearly. The committee appointed to prosecute the different companies whose roads are not in order, reported that they halex amined all the rod leading into the city, and found them all in ii horrible condition yet iill of them retaining the inexorable toll crillect,ir, who is always ready to receive current funds from every one unfortunate enough to be compelled to travel over them. The committee further say that there is not ten miles of till the toads in the country in a proper tam , of repair. They further stated that prosecutions had been insti tuded againtt rive 01 the roads. On motion of Mr. .1. G. Davis, the names of Messrs MoClarran, Sutton and Dr. O'Brian were added to the Prosecu ting Committee On motion. Messr , Dilworth and .1. W.

In Saturday's issue we noticed the re ception of the Annual 'Report of the Pennsylvania Institution for the Instruc tion of the Blind. In connection with the Institution there is "The Home for the Industrious Blind. — which is com posed exclusivety of thcse who have passed the term of instruction in the school or the Work Department, who are homeless, or , a hose homes would not offer the means of profiting by their in struction here. Ti.,• number at present is limited to twenty They receive em ployment, and pay. in return, a small charge for their I oard. Some of them teach classes, an-i I.( 11 , 1er to the music and other departments valuable services. For this they are paid a •crtain rate per hour,—thus re( ogni7ing all their time as their own, and placing them as nearly as possible, according ti their ability, on an independent footing of self-support. The practical working ~ t after twelve year.; experience, has been entirely satis - farlor‘ None of the evils feared and predicted, 10 and elsewhere, have been realized. on the contrary, the mural bearing of the llonie Depart ment has been favorable to the younger pupils and to the Institution. A majority of the inmates arc females. They have ever borne a high standing for intel ligence, correct deportment and indus try; and their example and influence are both cast on the side of order and dis cipline. Some nf ',hunt itsist in the music of the pul,iir c hi bit inns oC the Institution; and, in the -ickut ss nr ah sence of a-sistant teachers, they form a ready resource to draw upc-n fur tem porary assistam e. As a pecuniary question, the real ex pense of "THE hour' is the difference between the hoard paid by them and the actual cost of their maintenance to the Left for Louisville.—George II Institution. This is not much. j Thurston, Esq., who has been at Wash ington City for the past two weeks on business connected with the Improve ment of the Ohio, left on S a turd a y n i g h t to attend the ('invention at Louisville, on the 24th. Banking Associations.—The first section of an act reeentl:, read in the House provides that any State hank which becomes an association for carry ing on the banking business under the laws of the United State shall be deemed to have surrendered its charter, provided it complies with the provisions of this act, and provided, further that its previ ous rights and privileges shall continue in force for the pnrp.... of settling up its business. The are the provis ions under whieli , urrender may he made: The stockholders must, by vote. ordain that the teitih • h a il become an association for the t.nrpo, , , named, and as noon as the said a4sciation has been fornied . the charter of the bank must be surrendered. Dee notice of these pro ceedings must be given through the press, and a copy thereof filed with the Secretary of State. Any stockholders refusing to join the new association shall have the value of their stock at the time paid them, with interest from the date of the surrender. The association shall be held by these proceedings to have as sumed the obligations and liabilities of the bank. As soon as the record of the surrender has been filed, the assets, &c., of the hank shall become the property of the association for the purpo, , T afore_ said. The bank tax imposed by the State.ou dividends shall be paid up to the time of the surrender. At the meet ing of the stockholder, to decide on giv ing up the charter, one vote will be al lowed for every share of stock Absent members may vote by proxy. The above are the main feautureg of e ,the bill, which will probab;y be called up next week.

A child should never be allowed to go to sly op with cold feet ; the thing to be last attended to, in putting a child to bed, should be to see that the feet are dry and warn.; neglect of this has often resulted in a dangerous attack of croup, diptheria, or fatal sore throat. Always, on corning from school, on entering the house from a visit or errand in rainy, muddy, or thawy weather, the child's shoes should be removed, and the mother should her self ascertain if the stockings are the least damp, and if so, should require them to be taken off, the feet held before the fire and rubbed with the band until perfectly dry, and another pair of stock ings be put on and another pair of shoes, while the other stockings and shoesshould be placed where they can the well dried, so as to be ready for future use at a mo ment's notice. Tight noes inevitably arrest the free circulation of the blood and nervous influences through the feet, and directly tend to cause cold feet ; and health with habitually cold fe4 is an Lotteries.—A. correspondent wishes to know why wedo not call attention to the fact that there arc a number of men engaged in selling lottery tickets in .the city. Our correspondenct does not give us his name, nor does he state who the persons are, • nor where they hold forth, who are engaged in the business. And if he had furnished us with these parti culars, we should not have heeded 1/4 - request. When Mayor Loury was about appointing his police, he overlooked us altogether, and as our duty awl that of Mayor's constable are entirely'aifferent, we would respectfully Suggest to our cor respondent to make his case known to those whose it special business is to "ferry our" those who offend again-i the peace and dignity of the common wealth and the ordinamses of this muni cipality- in such cases made and pro vided.

The whole party were fined in sums varying from $5 to an.l costs, most of whom " forked over" and went on their ways rejoicing, and those who had n(•ither money or friends were sent to the hill. The Mayor seems di 'ermined to do all in his power to pr. serve the peace and morals of the and we trust he will persevere in the gond work. Once let it he known that offenders are sure of speedy punishment, and crime will diminish in a great de gree.

Sent to the Refuge.—A homeless, ragged urchin, about eleven years of age, named Charles Kearney, was picked up by officer May on Saturday evening and kept in the watch-house during the night. He way nearly naked, and had been living about the city for the past six weeks, begging his subsist ence and lodging where he could. He was a bright child, with nothing in his manner to denote that he was vicious. The Mayor, after feeding and clothing the little fellow, sent him to the House of Refuge yesterday, where he will be well cared for. Complaint. —A lady, resident of Lawrenceville, has sent Mayor Lowry a couple of letters requesting him to send his police out to Hatfield to arrest a cer tain party whom she alleges sills liquor on the Sabbath, much to the detriment of the morals of 4he citizens of that vil lage. As Hatfield is not exactly within the Mayor's jurisdiction, it might be well fur the lady to make information before the nearest magistrate, whose duty in the premises is clear and impera tive. Accidental Shooting.—A soldier. whose nanie we could not learn, acci dentally shot himself on Saturday eve ning.
