i'ennsylvania Railroad Company.
The annual meeting of this company
took place in Philadelphia on Monday
last. The reports of the Board, Chief
Engineer, add Treasurer, were'read and
adopted. From these reports we learn
that it has been determined by the
Board, that on and after the Ist of Jan
uary next, the rate of way travel shall
bo reduced to the uniform rate of three
Cents per mile—a very vitae and prodent
determination—and also to discontinue
all operations on the road upon the Sab
bath after that date.
The fiscal year dosed on the 31st of
October last, and up to that date the
Treas.urer's books showed the foflowing

There is the sum of $2,308,670 29
itpplicablo to the construction and equipment crf
the road.
The report of the engineer girds a
large amount of statistical matter, both
in relation to the completion by the cliff
erent routes over the mountain as well
as that of forming a junction with the
Portage Railroad. The receipts and ex
penditures of the road now in use, be
tween Harrisburg and Lewistown, are
sufficient to warrant the assurance that
the whole road cannot fail to amply re
munerate the capitalists for the invest
ment made by them. The total receipts
for transportation of freight and passen
gers, during the months of September
and October, were $14,802 76; while
the expenditures during the same period
were $3,405 37, leaving an excess of
-$11,397 39, which is equal to 4$ per
cent. interest upon the amount expen
ded in the building and equipment of
that portion of the road.
A resolution of thanks to the recent
and present Presidents, Engineers and
Officers "for the able, energetic and sat
isfactory manner in which they have con
ducted its affairs," was then adopted,
but not without opposition.
Resolutions instructing the directors
not to pay more than $2500 per annum
to the President unless he possesses the
qualifications of an engineer—,-to con
sider the expediency of providing for
the delivery of produce at the stores of
consignees under the present rates of
freight, and relative to discontinuing
operations on the Sabbath, were referred
to a committee consisting of Messrs. J.
R. Ingersoll, Jno. M. Kennedy, J. F.

Affairs in MexiCob
[From the New (Means Delta, Nov. 527.]
We had the pleasure of meeting yes
terday our friend and correspondent Mr.
J. B. Weller, who has just returned from
a visit to Mexico.
We learn from him that affairs are
quiet in Mexico, under the popular ad
ministration of Herrera, or rather of his
Secretary of War, Arista. The people
have grown sick of wars and revolutions
and pronunciamentos have lost their
charms. Several small efforts have been
made at revolutions, but they signally
failed, by the energy and promptitude
of Arista, who is daily acquiring a pop
ularity which will, no doubt, secure
him the succession to the Presidency.
The friends of Santa Anna, who have
been endeavoring to create a sentiment
in his favor, have encountered insur
mountable obstacles in the popularity
and vigor of Arista. It is the opinion
of Mr. Weller that Santa Anna can nev
er resume in Mexico the position he
once occupied.
One of the proofs of the efficiency of
the present government is, that th?, road
from Vera Cruz to Mexico is well guar
ded, and no robberies have been of late
committed on the diligencies.
Don Juan de In Granja has received a
grant from the Mexican Congress of the
right to establish telegraphs throughout''
the Republic.
There is before the Mexican Congress
a proposition made by a citizen of the
United States, to build a railway from
Vera Cruz to Ascapulco, on the Pacific,
passing through the city of Mexico.
Terrible Explosion.
We learn from the Philadelphia Sun
that a steam boiler in Spring Garden
exploded on Friday afternoon, the gen
eral effect of which was to shock the
neighborhood for squares around. Hou
ses shook convulsively, and windows
rattled in their frames as though an
earthquake had happened. The terror
that could be depicted on the faces of
the affrighted inmates can scarcely be
imagined. Every body ran to and fro
for some time, not knowing exactly what
had taken place. They soon learned the
cause of the terrible commotion, and
were as gratified as ourself on learning
that no one lost his life. The amount
of damage done cannot fall far short of
$2OOO.

A Bit of Romance !
A lady named Miller, wife of Major
Miller of the U. S. A. now in Florida,
and daughter of a distinguished eltizen
of Michigan, committed suicide, as was
supposed, last week, by throwing her
self from the bridge which overhangs
Niagara Falls, connecttng the land with
Goat Island. She arrived at the Eagle
Hotel on the same morning With her
two boys, one four and the other six
years old. Her bonnet was found on the
bridge and her shawl tied to the railing
and three letters were found in her room
one addressed to her husband, another
to her father, and the third to the propri
etor of the hotel, as follows :
To the Proprietor of the Eagle Hotel:
My mind is made up. I have no wish
to lite any longer. I shall go where my
body shall never be recovered. No one
shall gaze on my mangled remains.—
Please take care of my two little boys
till they can be sent to Detroit, where
then' grandparents reside. They are
the sons of Major Miller, of the army,
now in Florida, and grandsons of Hon.
John Nortell, of Detroit, Michigan.—
Please forward my letters and protect
my children till some of their relatives
can dome for them:

that this was a case of deliberate sui
cide ; but subsequent developernents t
throw a different light on the tnatter,
and there is some reason to suspect that
it is a case of—elopement.
It appears that n person who regis
tered his name .i.ctenry Blakemer, Phil
adelphia," arrived at Buffalo on Thurs
day, and stopped at the Exchange Ho
tel. He said that he expected some
friends in a day or two, and on Sunday
morning a lady with two little boys ar
rived and he was observed in the sitting
room of the depot in close conversation
with her. This was afterwards ascer
tained to be Mrs. Miller,and she remain
ed at the Exchange until Monday morn
ing, when she took the train for the Falls.
On the afternoon of that day Blakeman
hired a horse and buggy, & returned to
Buffalo on Tuesday morning about 3
o'clock with a lady, and left her at the
depot, while he took back the horse and
buggy to the stable. He then took his
baggage from the hotel, and started with
the lady in the fast train at half-past
five, purchasing tickets for Cayuga
,Bridge.
MRS. MILLER ARRESTED !—The 'Ro
chester americart of Saturday, says that
Mrs. Miller, the Niagara Falls suicide,
has been arrested at Syracuse, in compa
ny with a young man named Blackmer,
with whom she was running away!
A PRETTY BEGINNIND.—The Boston
Post thinks that the debt with which the
Administration will come before Con
gress, will be a "pretty beginning." So
it will ; it is the beginning of the great
debt which the annexation of Texas, the
Mexican war, and the other measures
for the extension of slavery, have entail
ed upon the country—a debt which will
be coming up for years, in the shape of
new demands and doubtful claims of ev
ery kind. Millions upon millions will
be taken from the treasury in liquidation
of claims of this kind, which have not
yet been presented. It is a "pretty be
ginning," indeed.—Providence Journal.

Bristol, Barks con ni y,
leeptt 11, 1849.
Da. J. H. selOtttit, —lYear3ir,—l am induced
from a sense of justice towards you, as well as
duty to the public, to make known one of the
moat hopelesa and extraordinary cures, in my
own person, that you have ever had the pleasure
to record. Indeed, I regret me inability to por
tray, in truthful colorer, my consenting digettse,
and the remarkable chance which Selineck's
Pulmonary Syrup effected in eo ehort a time.
I was taken some lime prsvious to Decemllel
1848, with a heavy cold, producing incessant
coughing, accompanied with acute pain in the
right Fide, pains in the back, under the right
ehotilJer, having heavy night sweate,high fever,
&c., which made me so nervous nod restless es
to produce utter prostration. AII these afflictions
increased with such violence, that on the 4th of
January last I sent for my family physician. Ho
attended me feithfulle, end prescribed every thing
that medical skill could wigged, but without ef
fect. I found myself gradually growing w3/se.
and my hopes of recovery lessening as ray din
ease increased. My cough became distressing ;
my paina severe; and, ektremely debilitated, I
lost all ambition in life, and gave up to a melan
choly depression. My physician examined me,
end informed me I had an obsess on the upper
part °fray liver and lower part of one of my lunge:
Notwithstanding all this chill, I grew worse, but
with that tenacity with which we all cling to tile.
I concluded to leave nothing undone, and called
in a consulting physician, who fully concurred
with my own, end pronounced my case an ex
tremely critical one. lie thought I was in im
minent danger--saying my disease "was one that
is seldom if ever cured." All this time I was en
during aufferings that made life burdensome ; ex
periencing great pain in coughing; expectora
ting from a pint to a quart of nauccous firaftet
avery 21 hours, and gradually sinking under the
weakning progress of my diocese. At this siege
of my illness, my friend. in Moot suggeeted
the use of Schneck . s Pulmonic Syrup, but know
ing the many expedients resorted to for the pur
pose of draining money from the afflicted, I hes
itated. My friends, however, insisting, I won
prevailed upon to try its virtues. I commenced
taking the Syrup about the first of March, and
used several bottles before I had any confidence
in it. I then began to experience a charge for
the better, and continued it till I had consumed
ten bottles, when I was so far relieved as to he
able to visit Dr. Sehneek in Philadelphia. He
examined me, and pronounced My right lung af.
leered, but in a healing con lition. Ile recorns
mended the further use of the Syrup, which I
continued till I consumed 15 bottles, and found
myself once more restored to health. I will fur
ther add,that the consulting physician. Facing the
action of the medicine, fully approved its use.
To give the reader some idea of the severity
of my case, and the rapid cure affected by the
Syrup, I will state that my usual weight in
health was 177 pounds, which was finally re
duced by my sufferings to but 121 paint!. Yet,
on the first of thin month, (September) I weigh
ed 174 pounds, thus gaining Its a fetir months 53
pounds, and within three pounds of my heaviest
weight. It is not in my power to convey, in the
short apace of this certificate, the convincing
proofs of my remarkable cure, or the ' , articulate
of the aeoniiing afflictions throbgh which I have
passed ; but to those who will take the trouble to
call on one, at Bristol, opposite Pratt'. hot e l, 1
shall take pleasure in detailing every particular.
Is conclusion, I deem it toy duty to urge upon
every person who may have the premonitory
symptoms of this fatal disease, not to delay one
hour, Mit to call upon Dr Schneck immediately.
His skill in the treatment of this complaint, and
prompt detection of diseased parts of the lunge
by means of hie Stethescope, added to my own
mime ous cure, fully setiefiee me, that had I ear
lier 'submitted myself to his care, I should have
escaped much suffering; but restrained by doubts
and suspicion, which make us all naturally skep.
tical in regard to the virtues of a medicine when
first introduced, I resisted the importunities of
my friends till almost too late ; and yielded only
as a last resort, resolved to " kill or cure." To
those afflicted as I have been, again let me say,
i hesitate no longer, nay own case is presentrd to
you as convincing evidence, that When all else
fail. your lasi hope is in Dr, Schneck's Pulmonic
Syrup. I have also for tbe satlafactiott of those
who may be strangers to me, appended to this cer
awe the names of gentlemen well known in
the walks Of public and private life, arid whose
standing ill eyelets , admits of no cavil or doubt in
regard to their testimony.
