REPORT OF THE PENNSYLVANIA
RAILROAD.
We received a copy of the Twelfth An
nual Report of the Board of Directors of
the Pennsylvania Railrood Company which
forms a pamphlet of one hundred and fit
teen pages. We take :from Mr. Thorn_
son's report, the following totals of the bu
siness of the road : •
"The total number of persons who passed
upon the road during the year was 1,012,803
first clam - passengers, and 16,862 emigrants
" The earnings of the road from passengers
for 1858, show a decrease from the previous
year of $75,213 for the first class, and of $7,
073 for emigrants; a total decrees of $82.280
The falling off in the passenger travel is prob.
ably not greater than will be observed on
model the railways of the Union, and is doubt
less due to the general prostration of the ac
tive buseness of the country. When it is con•
sidered that the Lumber of immigrants that
arrived at our ports in 1838 was less than half
the number in 1857, the percentage of dsmin_
alien in this branch of business will be deem.

"The amount of coal delivered in the city of
Pittsburgh du iti g the year 1858 was 99,540
tons, being 1.921 tons more than in the preced
tug year. The total number of tons of coal
transported during the year 1838 was 140,007
in the ears of the Company, and 200,531 in
the cars of individual ttannorters.”
The Canal Department of the tompany's
service has, during the pest' year, been
most successfully administered by T. Has•
bins Du Puy, Esq., as chief engineer.—
In his report, Mr. Du Puy gives the total
receipts and expenditures as follows:
Total teecipts $179,100 OS
Expenses 124,078 32
Nett receipts $ 55,041 it;
Th,: canal was in bad repair at time
of i:s purehaSe from the State, but under
\l r. Du Puy's skillful direction, has been
greatly improved. The depth of "eater is
greater, and fewer interuptions in the nav
igation have occurred during the last year
then for many previous seasons.
Mr. nu Puy having entered upon the
duties of acting President of the Pittsburg
Port Wayne and Chicago Railroad Com•
pany, felt compelled to resign his position
es Cheif Engineer of the Canal Depart
inent of the Punnsplvania Road, and has
been succeeded by Thomas T. Wierman,
El., a gentleman eminently fitted for the
post.
The Pennsylvania is ungustionably, in
all its departments, the best managed mil
-1 road in the country, We refer to the in•
Iformation and statistics contained in thus
r eport, as full evidence of this fact.
