Through the kindness of Thomas Col-
tlins, Esq., the President of the Company,
we have been permitted to publish the
a-eport made to the stockholders, at their
Lumual meeting, on Monday, the 0th inst.
We will remark, in connection", that the

'leport of the President and Board of Director
of the Kuensburg and Cresson Railroad; sub
mitted to the Stockholder at their annual
meeting, held the second Monday oj January,
ls-Jo :
Tho Ebensburg and Cresson Railroad Com-
j iinv was duly organized on the JOtli day or
pl;u 15'J, m compliance with the provisions
kf the 3d section of the General Rail Road
A:t. Prior to the organization, the Commis
f'.iWTi named in the act of incorporation se
fircl the services of George W. Leuffer, Esq.,
fi:i engineer of eminent ability, who, assisted
y Messrs. Barrett, Noon and Fenlon, made
kiie necessary surveys for the road ; reports of
thick were laid bt-tore your Hoard and ap-
roved of.
Your IJoard of Directors, deeming it pru-
2-ut that an interview should be had with J.
iljjr Thomson, Esq., President of the Penn
vlvauia Rail Road Company, in regard to that
C j:n);iuy putting on the superstructure of the
flrnm-h road, in the event of its being graded,
therefore instructed the President to that ef
fect: und he, in company with one of the
I'.iK'kholders, called upon Mr. Thomson for
i:it purpose. A report of that interview was
i:ule Vj the IJoard, and it being satisfactory,
fhi-y instructed the Engineer of the Company
i advertise for a letting ; and on the 2'Jtu
J.itie, 1S5'J, the work from section One to sec
tijti Ten. inclusive, was let to a responsible
Contractor.
1 The Report of the Engineer, herewith sub
mitted, will "how the cost of grading the whole
H'-iv : the amount of work done, and the
feiouut yet to be accomplished. Thus:
Jtatiiu.ttcd cost of irradintr the whole
line, Ac. S41.C48.00
" work done, 20,S30.00
I.eavinj to be done, $20,818.00
will he remembered that this estimate of
tk" KiiL'inerr emhrjires the section liassinir
tfr.jiigh Ebensburg, and not vet under COU
t.t.' r'r m the statement of the Treasurer, here-
liih submitted, it will be seen that the receipts
fiui .Stockholders, on 549 shares subscribed
the capital stock of the Company, was, on
ilst dav of December, 1850: $11,355.46
lAin't loan from Camden Bank, 2,953.00
Total, $14,308.40
M tliat the Treasurer lias made disburse-
ents for the Com nan v as follows :
u't paid on construction, $11,907.90
Engineer Corps, 1,333-88
Right of Way, 715.00
' Letters Patent A Charter, 104.00
Books, Stationery, &c, 134.00
' Damages and Appraiserj, 67.98
Incidentals, 79.74
' Treasurer's Commission, 143.42
Total. Sl4.485.92
It will thus be seen. that, while the Con-
i''tor has only been paid about Twelve thous
p 1 dollars, there is work done to the amount
2 a'jout Twenty thousand dollars; in fact,
'Tv than one half the entire line is graded.
15 c work was let on most advantageous
jris to the Company, the contractor agrec
that thirty per cent, of the whole amount
f''uld be retained in the hands of the Com
ny uutil the completion of the work. Ry
l s arrangement, the Company has succced
P in having a much greater amount of work
uc than had Ikph nnt ir inateil before the
:i'ig, under the most favorable view that
'Id be taken of it.
The President and Hoard of Directors deem
- present a fitting occasion, to impress up-
ie stockholders the importae.ee of prompt-
tlleOtlnir tlifvif. mctiilmMilo aa lliAff ltoSTTIA
r0- It must be evident to all. that, if the
l"I'er effort be made on their part, there can
f no djubt about the early completion of the
T' while on the other hand, it is not to be
f"'-ealed, that, through carelessness and
f -thy, the Stockholders may suffer the en-
f prise to become a failure, and still be liable
of
TteCn tliAnaanrl lAl1ira a
J fl the grading of the road, and fit it for the
The Contractor h
fl the Board to carry this sum himself, if
remaining unpaid subscription be paid
r i'J nun as the instalments fall due. This
federation should, of itself, induce pronipt-
f on tue pnrt of every subscriber, and stim
!e him tQ renew-ei exertions ia behalf of
1 enterprise of such vital interest to this
uuuy. ReSPKCTFI'LLV fafBJIITTED.

Tue Evknt of tue Wkek. The La
bans who have marriageable daughters
had better reverse the paternal and sensi
ble advice given by the venerable Tony
AVeller to hia son Samivel, and never say,
"bevare of the vidders," but rather of that
more dangerous class, namely, the widow
ers. In our last issue, we had the pleas
ure of announcing the union of the land
lord of the "Logan House," to the amiable
and accomplished Miss Thomas; but we
were compelled to go to press before their
return to Ebensburg. The advent of the
happy couple was celebrated by the firing
of guns, and other like demonstrations of
congratulation; but all this was completely
thrown in the shade by the performances
of the evening, when the whole town
seemed to devote itself to the reception of
the hospitalities of "mine host." By con
sent oi all, the table was most richly laden
with all the good things that town or city
could supply; everything in the eating
line was in profusion; nor did it seem
less plenty when all the guests, numbering
about one hundred and sevcnty-jivc, were
filled to the full. The Ebensburg Brass
Band, being present, played some of their
choicest airs ; when Isaac and his lovely
bride appeared, and bid all welcome. Af
ter the banquet was disposed of, a meeting
was organized by culling It. L. Johnston,
Esq., to the Chair, and appointing Co'.
Hasson, Secretary. The President stated
the object of the meeting in a few brief
and appropriate remarks, and was fol
lowed by Col. Hasson, C. D. MurraV,
Esq., Dr. Geo. B. Lewis, and others.
The cheers which greeted the speak
ers as they respectively took their seats,
showed plainly that their remarks were
very pointed, and told with effect up
on the assembled multitude. Mr. Thos
M'Brien now complied with the wishes of
the party, by singing in his own inimita
ble, unapproachable style, "The Salier
Boy, just nineteen years of old." Major
Osterloh, of IIollida-sburg, followed in the
beautiful song entitled "The Bivouac"
sung in a style iu which only the Major
can sing. Mr. Crawford and lady again
made their appearance, when Mr. Barrett
sung "The Pope," accompanying it with
his guitar almost excelling himself, and
bringing down repeated applause from the
guests. After several other songs, among
which Richard Morgan, Esq., iutroduced
his favorite
"I told her I would marry her,
But never told her when,"
the company separated, well pleased with
the evening's entertainment, and fully im
pressed with the opinion that "Isaac"
never docs things by halves.
Dead Heads. Several of our exchan
ges, we perceive, have expressed their
determination to hereafter charge for all
obituary notices exceeding five lines, at
the rate of five cents per line. This will
have the effect of considerably abridging
the sometimes inconvenient length of such
notices, besides giving everybody aa equal
chance of having nis virtues blazoned forth
after his demise providing he's got the
"spelter" to pay for such favor. "A man
or woman," it has been observed, "must
have lived to little purpose if some friend
cannot be found who will invest a trifle in
doing honor to departed worth." Yes;
and if a man has no friends, he can easi
ly make provisions in his will for a "puff."
Would it not be a good idea for those ed
itors to get up some kind of a printed
agreement, binding themselves for and in
consideration of the sum received, to give
the holder a "complimentary notice" im
mediately on his exit from this vale of
tears ? They'd sell like hot cakes. With
regard to the preparation of these obituary
notices, an exchange says it will be taken
for granted that this service is concluded
in ihe foregoing charge of five cents per
line, and presumes that an order for the
insertion of such notice will bo something
like the following :
Mb. Editor : My wife Mary died very sud
denly last night. Please make the announce
ment, and give her a puff" to the amount of
the enclosed dollar.
Yours, respectfully, Johx Smith.
Bonnets. The Paris correspondent of
the Xew York Journal of 'Commerce writes
that the winter bonnets are all much lar
ger than those worn during the past year;
the form is open at the side, and comes
forward over the forehead ; the curtain is
moderately wide. A mixture of two col
ored velvets, or of velvets and satin, is
the predominant style ; there are two pairs
of strings, one pair very wide of a narrow
taffetas, of the same hue as the satin.
Black velvet bonnet-? are often edged with
white silk, which is covered with a doub
le row of blonde ; the ornaments consist
of a boquet of black and white flowers,
placed on the left side of the bonnet and
with a plait of black velvet inside above'
the forehead, and a full blonde cap.
"What I Love." The following beau
tiful lines, from the pen of one of the ac
complished daughters of Ebensburg, and
written expressly for The Atteghanian, we
publish with pleasure :
I love the seasons of the year:
Oh, how I love the Spring!
When little birds, our hearts to cheer,
So musically sing.
When buds anew begin to swell
On every bush and tree ;
As if each trying to excel
More beauteous to be.
I loye the bright clear summer days,
When the majestic sun
Shines forth with such effulgent rays
I love them every one.
Autumn I love, though dismal, drear,
And leaves all fade and die;
Though birds and flowers disappear,
And gloomy is the sky.
Though winter follows closely on,
I dearly love them both :
They teach me that I'll soon be gone.
As leaves of human growth.
Thus heavenward my heart ascends,
Like spirits that have fled,
Of many dear and loving friends
Who slumber with the dead.
Though rigid, cold, yet most sublime,
Are winter days to me:
They point me onward to the time
My soul from hence shall flee.

Sxow Soxg. The following morceau,
which we find floating about in the sea of
exchanges, will, we are confident, be fully
appreciated by those of our readers who
are fond of a beautifully conceived, fault
lessly versified, and seasonable bit of po
etry. It is a gem of purest ray rerene :
" 'Tis Winter ! and no more the beese3,
Buzz among the budding treescs ;
And while boy with ragged trowses,
Shivering, homeward drives his cowses,
Nearly frost-bit are hi3 toeses,
And, bless my life, how cold his nose is !"
Oct and In. On Thursday last, Geo.
J. Bodgers, Esq., who for two years has
faithfully served the people of Cambria
county in the arduous aud responsible
office of County Treasurer, gave way to
his successor, John A. Blair, Esq. It is
admitted on all hands that Mr. llodgers
made an excellent officer, and we know
Mr. Blair will show himself in every way
worthy to wear the mantle of his "illus
trious predecessor."
