THE PENNSYLVANIA. RAILROAD.—We
understand that the report of the Penn
sylvania Railroad company, which was
submitted to the stockholders on Tues
day last, showed a more favorable re
sult from the year's operations than that
of any similar corporation in the world.
Its total receipts amount to ten million
three hundred thousand dollars. Its
running expenses are only about forty
per cent, of this sum—a less rate al
most than that of any other railroad in
existence—and after deducting inter
ests on bonds, &C., its net receipts will
exceed live millions of dollars I Is not
thii a wonderful result for an organiza
tion with a tactic capital of thirteen
million of dollars, and that too, in the
midst of a terrible civil war ?
A PITIFUL BIGHT.—One of the most
pitiful and humiliating sights that has
yet come within the range of bur vision
was that of a drunken army Chaplain,
this morning, who came reeling out of
Strawberry alley into third street. Ho
was filthy and furious. Oaths leaped
from his lips with the seeming fluency
with which whisky must have run down
his throat. His was only a disgrace to
himself. Neither religion, valor, pa.
triotism or purity suffer by the action
of such men, b!cause they are brutes
that only need'-iieveloping, and the
sootier they alllknigwa and exterminated
the' bdtter for the cause of religion and
of freedo m.--Harrisburg nlegraph.

or A few days since, Mr. Edward S.
Terry was found dead at a low drinking
house of New York city, his death re
sulting from the inordinate use of ar

in good society and at one time he was
a law partner of Charles O'Conbr, a
leading lawyer of the New York bar.
Gir Paper from wood is no longer an
experiment, it is a success. There is a

which is in use upon the Baton Journal

QUITE LIDEIIAL.—Mrs. Glen. McClel
lan is the lucky recipient of such a pres
ent as even monarchs rarely give. She
received a neat little note from a num
ber of her husband's New York wor
shippers, tendering her a magnificent
residence up town, and begging her to
accept it as a testimonial of the estima
tion in which her husband's abilities and
services are held by the donors. The
house i 3 superbly furnished from top to
bottom—costly Tarkey carpets cover
the floors, rare pictures adorn the walls,
the cellar is fully stocked with the choi
cest wines, and everything connected
with luxurious housekeeping—even to
groceries—abounds in lavish profusion.
Astor, who was once on McClellan's
staff in Virginia, is one of the principal

THEY WON'T WORK !—A.New Orleans
letter gives the following instructive
fact :
"I have just met an old friend, - whom
I not only find a loyal man, but actively
engaged in aiding the government. His
father owns the estate on the river be
low the city known as the 'Magnolia
Estate'—the large brick building look
ing, with the sugar-mills, like a village
on the banks of the siver as we came
up. He says he is hiring the negroes
by the month, and they work day and
night in the cane in this the most dri
ving of plantation work. They need no
urging—they work too much. He says
the large hospital he has for the sick
negroes, which was always sure to be
filled at this season, is now without a
tenant, and all are over-anxious to
work."
Two SfIES TO BE HUNG.--It is report
ed, and we hope truly, that John S.
Boyle and Charles Powell, both cap
titins on the Rebel Stuart's staff, who
were arrested by our detectives near
Dumfries, a few days since, are to be
hung as spies. The evidence against
them is positive that they were at Dum
fries, in citizens' dress, mingling amongst
oar troops, and that they suddenly dis
appeared and informed Stuart, and con
ducted him on his last raid into Dam
fries; that they subsequently again ap
peared in citizens' dress, and were cap
tared while lurking about our camps,
one having in his possession important
information in writing. We hope the
governmens will execute the law upon
them.
How GAMBLERS Tuarva.—The rooms
in Cleveland occupied by Conlisk, a no
ted gambler, and one of those concerned
in the fleecing of Paymaster Cook, were
cleaned out by an execution lately ) , when
some curious dikienVeTiee w@ro Made.—
There were peep-holes in the walls,
through which an accomplice of the
gambler,
,stationed outside, could see
the hand of his victim, and a system of
wires and hammers under the floor by
which he could communicate to his prin
cipal the results of his observations.—
The,contrivance looks• very much like
an infringement of the patent of the
well known spirit-rapping machine.
TIIE PRESIDENT'S Wire.--The Wash

purse, to alleviate the sufferings of our
wounded soldiers ; and it is but just to
add that day by day her carriage is seen

FIRST NEGRO REGIMENT :—Saxton,
writing from South Carolina to the War
Department, says : "I have the honor
to report that the organization of the
First regiment of South Carolina vol
unteers is now completed. The regi
ment is light infantry, composed of ten
companies of about eighty-six men each,
armed with muskets, and officered by
white men. In organization, drill, dis
cipline, and morale, this regiment, for
the length of time it has been in service,
is not surpassed by any white regiment
in this Department. Should it ever be
its good fortune to get into action, I
have no fear but it will win its own way
to the confidence of those who are will
ing to recognize courage and manhood,
and vindicate the wise policy of the Ad
ministration, in putting these men into
the field, and .in giving them a chance
to strike a blow for the country and
their own liberty. In no regiment have
1 ever seen duty performed with so
much cheerfulness and alacrity; and as
sentinels, they are peculiarly vigilant.—
I hive never seen, in any body of men,
such enthusiasm and deep-seated devo
tion to their officers as exists in this ;
they will surely go wherever they are
led. Every man is a volunteer, and
seems fully persuaded of his importance
of his service to his race.
STAMPS ON PROMISSORY NOTES.—As
the season for sales of personal proper
ty is rapidly approaching, when large
numbers of promissory notes are execu
ted, it may be interesting to the public
to know the scale of stamp duties which
the law of 1862 imposes upon such notes.
It is as follows :
From $2O to $lOO $ 05
" 100 to 200 10
" 200 to 350 15
" 350 to 500 20
" 500 to 7bo 30
" 750 to 1000 40
" 1000 to 1500 GO
" 1500 to 2500 1 00
" 2500 to 5000 1 50
The penalty for violating the law is
fifty dollars, and the instrument is ren
dered invalid and of no avail. These
stamps can always be procured from the
U. S. Revenue collectors of the different
districts.
GEN. BUTLER'S NEW MISSION--Gener
al Butler has had several interviews
with the President and Secretary of
War, who have formally renewed the
proposition that he shall go back to New
Orleans to resume command of the De
partment of the Gulf; Texas, and the
troops which Gen. Banks will lead thith
er, but with additional powers and re
sponsibilities, including those attached
to the organization of an African army
on the Mississippi. It is said that Gen.
Butler now hesitates about accepting
the command in the shape offered, fear
ing that the means, to be given him are
disproportionate to the end to be accom
plished. , .
AFRICANS TO BE CALLED INTO SERVICE.
—There are fresh indications that the
government is determined to call into
the military service of the country the
fighting African population. G9vernor
Andrew and other Republicans in offi
cial positions have been requested to
recommend white officers to Gen. Dan
iel Ullman, who are willing and capable
to take commands in the negro brigade
which he is about to organize in the
south. Applications to organize col
ored Unionists come from several States.
one of them from Tennessee.
THE '_MISSISSIPPI . CUT-OFF CANAL.-
Gen. Grant has been obliged to dig an
entirely new canal opposite Vicksburg,
that commenced by Gen. Williams
last Fall having been planned on un
sound engineering principles. At last
accounts the water was flowing in rapid
ly and it was expected that the river
would soon malie itself at home in- the
new channel. Gen. Grant had sev
eralguns in position at the foot of the
canal, with which to silence a battery
planted by the rebels opposite.
A SOUTHERN PROPHET.—Mr. 110yee p
of South Carolina, said in 1851 "I ob

secession of South Carolina. Such is
the intensity of my conviction upon the
subject, that if secession shdtild take
place, I shall consider the institution of
slavery doomed, and that the Great

instruments of its destruction."

NEW ENLISTMENT 13F1.1..—lothe united
States House of Rvpresentativei oa
Monday, the bill authorizing President
Lincoln to enlist as soldiers as inimy
colored men as he may deem necessary
was passed by a vote of 83 to 55. The
strenuous and desperate resistance made
to the measure by the Democratic mem
bers of the House has attracted a great
deal of attention to it—much more, in
deed, than was called for, as the act
merely sanctioned by law what has been
for months past in process of accomplish
ment, under the direction of the War
Department. Indeed, the President
distinctly announced in his proclamation
that freedmen were to be enlisted as sol
diers. There are already some six
thousand of them enrolled, uniformed,
equipped, drilled, armed, and in active
service, under Gens. Saxton, Hunter,
Banks, and others, and thus far they
have proved excellent soldiers, standing
fire well, and preserving their discipline
under all circumstances.
GENERALS:—According to a report of
the War Secretary, which has just been
laid before the Senate, there were fifty
two major generals and two hundred
and eight brigadier generals in the ser
vice of the United States. The dismis
sal of Fitz John Porter reduces the
number of major generals to fifty-one,
leaving the total number of geaeral offi
cers in our army two hundred and fifty
nine. The first eight major generals
in the list rank in the following order :
McClellan, Fremont, Halleck, Wool,
Dix, Banks, Butler, and Hunter. The
first name on the list of Brigadier gen
erals is that of William S. Harney;
Michael Corcoran the seventeenth ; Ab
ner Doubleday the seventy-fourth. A
number of nominations are -pending in
the Senate. Mr. Stanton reports that
Gen. Fremont has not been assigned to
active command since August 12, 1862
nor McDowell since September 6,1862;
nor Harney since May 16, 1861 ; nor
Anderson (of Fort Sumpter) since Oc
tober 8, 1861.
A LARoI Haar,.—Jelf. Davis wilt
probably have to reconsider his deter
mination to band over all officers taken
prisoners to the rebel State authorities
to be treated—that is hung—as slave
stealers ; for, if retaliation is to be the
order of the day, Jeff's attachment to
his word will be very uncomfortable in
the matter of some hundreds captured
at Arkansas Post. Among the rebel
prisoners taken there were one general,
ten colonels, ten lieutenant colenels, ten
Majors, one hundred captains, nearly
two hundred lieutenants, and a lot of
adjutants, quartermasters, surgeons
and staff officers.
STATUE OF Wesnixorox.—A statue of
Washington, by Powers, has been
brought to Washington city and placed
in the rotunda of the Capitol. The stet_
us was captured at Baton Rogue, by
General Butler. It is somewhat dam
aged by transportation, but not to an
extent to peimanently disfigure it. It
is considerably. stained, but it is being
cleaned. It isjegarded by experienced
critics as being a most correct and stri
king representation of the Father of his
Country.
GROUND 800 DAL—There is a popu
lar superstition that the ground hog
quits his "winter quarters" on the 2d of
February, NO if he happens to spy his
shadow in• the sun he hastens back to
his hole, there to remain for six weeks
longer—as•the sun shine of this day in
dicates a continuance of six weeks more
of cold, freezing weather. If we don't
have- six weeks cold weather now, it
will not be because the sun didn't shine
on ground hog day.
LOCUSTS ESPECTED.—Joseph Harris,
writes to the St. Clairsvile (Ohio) Chron
icle, that the locusts will be on hand
this year, being the seventeenth year
since their last appearance. He says :
"This year there will be locusts in abun
dance. Prepare your small trees, by
tying them up with straw for twenty
five days and you are safe, if you do it
right."
