The follow iiiff Regulation*rcepoctf ng the turns-
inlaloa of scaled papers to Cuba, recently made
by the Government of that Island, have been
communicated to this Department by the Lega

for the benefit and information of all whom U may
concern:
(im'trnmtnt nnd Captaincy General of lha tter-
faithful Island of Cuba, .
Thd great mjury suffered by the royal revenue
from (he mails, in consequence of the transmis
sion of correspondence otherwise than by mail,
or in \ho packages sent by the administrators or
despatch agents, although such transmission is
punishable l>y law, and also from the introduc
tion by pi ivate iudividualsof correspondence from
abroad, in lontravention of the csistiug royal
or.h rj and dispositions of the Government, lias
« mued me to dlrectmy attention specially to this
important subject, for the purpose.of adopting
Mail ii..->triuro*iui may tend to re-establish in force
the regulations which have now fallen into neg-
v lect or disuse; and to this efibet, having examined
the i . port of the general administration of the
mails, in order to prevent all contraband trans-
mission of correspondence in future, which is not
only done by many from ignorance or uiistakeu
kiudncii. but also by many others, in order to
conceal Utters and printed papers, circulated
with malicious and criminal intent, I hnte de-
. termined to use the powers which 1 possess as her
Muj ••sti'i Captain General and General Sub-Dele
gate of (he Department of tho Post Office, *nd do

AnT. III. The concealment of letters or papers

diminutive size, the engine turned the light pad
dle-wheels of the machine witli ease, and kept iu
motion os long as the water lasted. Tho rudder
was set to fly the balloon in a circle. It was start
ed from tho cun tern door of tho Rotunda, and went
up steadily, propelled by the engine, In a regular
gyration to the roof—making two full circles on
tu way. Here, a weight having been attached,
It descended iu a spiral, following the set of tho
rudder, and landed safely. This experiment was
repeated a second time with a lika result, and so
for os flying in a quiet atmosphere goes, the loco-
inolivo may be considered fulty successful. It re
mains to bo seen, whether a large machine, simi
larly constructed, would safely resist tho violent
commotion* of the open alt. There was a largo
number of persons present yesterday, who testi
fied, by a hearty applause, their opinion of the ex
hibition.
SAVANNAH, GA.
TUESDAY MORNING, BIARCH 87, 1949.
Tub Nkw Steamer Tennessee.—Wo were
shewn through this splendid steamship yesterday
by her polite and gnllant commander, Capt.
Collins. Wo had a view of every thing, from
tho cabin to tho locker, and are without sufficient
terms with which to express our admiration both
of the elegance and comfort which reign through
out every part of her, and of her massive Umbers
and powerful engine. Every thing seems to be
in its place, and a very secure and nice place at
that. Tho cabins and state-rooms are better
lighted and vcuUlated than usual, and especially
the former, for which much credit Is due to Capt.
Coluns, who superintended her building and
suggested the improvement. They are spacious
and fitted up in a high /tyla of elegance and
taste—every thing having an airy and graceful,
but substantial, appearance.
Tho 7>nnn«rt is built after the model of the
Cherokee, which is regarded, as the stoutest and
safest sea-boat on our waters. Her dimensions
aro 210 feet length, breath 35, and hold 22 feet)
wheel 31 feet diameter; cyllndct 75 inches; stroke
of piston 9 feet, and measurement 1275 tons.—
The engine, from tho Novelty Works, is one of
the most perfect pieces of mechanism ever con
st! ucted at that celebrated establishment. It work-
ed.admirably and almost without uolse on the
passage out. Her state-rooms are ample and com-
inqdious, and her arrangements sufficient to ac
commodate witli easo and comfort at least 200
passengers.
We should not omit to mention that this excel
lent craft is named after out* sister State Tennes
see. It is a compliment of which our .friends in
that noble commonwealth may well bo proud;
and we have no doubt that they will shew their
apptedaUon of the compliment thus paid, by
making this their favorite vessel in their com
mercial transactions and their trips to and from
the fcorth. We are now placed weekly com
munication with New-York and the South.
Wing evident, the directors of such enterprises,
nnd the consignees of such vessels,shall especial
ly enjoin upon tlicjr dependents not to consent to
any ubusf* I tlnt'Jcioa which they may observe,
or of which (hey may be informed; and they shall
fix a notice of tills prohibition, for the knowledge
of the public, nt all the places on the way at which
there are post offices, or dispatch agencies; for the
neglect of which orders the Directors shall be to-
up >n«ihle.
A nt. VI. Captains of vessels and individuals of
their crews, and pvsjcnger* sailing from ports of
- the peninsula, shall not admit for transportation
to this island nny letters or papers not Loaning the
•SAl Of the respective Post-Offices.
Art. VII. All correspondence brought by ves-
eels which arrive in the island, whether national
i or foreign, shall be delivered to the collector of
the mail i m the act of his visit by the captain,
supercargo, passenger, or member of the crew, in
- whoso cure they may be.
Ah r. VIII. In the ports in which there is no col-
l«'t.»r <>f mails, the captain, supercargo and pas-
scugera aro obliged to deliver to the Post Office or
di* patch agency all the correspondence which Uicy
in ty Lave brought immediately after the vessel has
i ael anchor.
Art. IX. In the act of delivering the correspon
dence and packages, ns directed tn the preceding
articles, tho Collector shall pay as remuneration
. for each piece, whether a single letter or a double
letter, or a package, coming from the United
Hutcs or the indies, one cent, and two cents for
<h' ho from any other country. If the correspnn
donee bo in bags or sealed packages the said pay
ment shall W made at the Post Office; and in
each case, on a receipt for tho number of pieces
and the amount paid to the person bringing them.
Ast. X. A fine of one dollar shall be laid for
each single letter, and of two, three, four, fcc.
dollars in proportion for each doublo, triple, quad
ruple, &c. letter which shall not have been deli-
• vend to the Collector or the Postmaster within 21
hours after the vessel has cast anchor in.the port,
. «stvl ip order that no one may plead igHhance, a
..copy of the articles containing this cXHJgition,
■ written in Spanish, French, or English, snail be
delivered to each captain at the moment of the
visit.
Tiie Collector is authorised to take measures
. for having the fines imposed immediately paid;
r.nd in case of resistance, which is not to be ex
pected, he shall require the arrest of the party
making it by the Captain of the port, or the Ad-
jutant charged with visiting vessels, and shall in
form the local authority of the same, who may
double the fine on tboso who resist, or ffder them
•. to lie kept in prison two days for every letter
brought by them, in addition to any proceedings
which may be instituted, accordingto (he circum
stances and tho tendency or object of the ccnceal
ment.
Art. XI. AU the correspondence end newspa
pers arriving are-subjected to the payment of
postage, according to the existing tailrts, except
ing lliwe ttclonging to the consignee of the r
which brings them, and those of the co
UxroRTUNATt.—The Baltimore American learns
from Philadelphia, that two of the crew of the
schooner Charles C. Stratton, of Savannah, were
knocked overboard on 21ct from that vessel as
she was going up Delaware Bay, and drowned.
sg
Thb Methodist Church Property Question.
Wo learn (says the New-York Express) that the
Baltimore Annual Conference of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, the first in rotation, has unani
mously passed a resolution authorizing and re
commending that the property question, in dis
pute between the Northern and Southern branches
of the Church, he submitted to arbitration. Should
the other annual conferences follow the example,
and it seems to be generally expected that they
will, the constitutional difficulty will be removed.
The South having made preparations for com
mencing a suit to establish their claim, will have
incurred some expenses, but probably these will
be made matter of arrangement should an ami
cable adjustment of the other difficulty be agreed
upon.
09- The Georgian of yesterday contains an ao-
count of a very miraculous marriage. It says—
' “The widow of the patriot Theobold Wolfe
Tone, the friend and companion of the martyred
Emmett, died at Georgetown on the 18th inat., in
the 81st year of her ago.
“She afterwards married the late Thomas Wil
son, of Scotland. 1 *
Arbest or one or The Supposed Rossers or
the Government Jewels.—A telegraphic des
patch from Philadelphia on tbe22d, to the Balti
more American, says: '*A notorious character,
named Jacob Shuster alias Tom Hand, has been
arrested in this city, upon suspicion of being con
nected in some way with the robbery of the Gov
ernment jewels that were taken from their case
in the Patent Office hot longaince. He waacom-
milted to jail in default of 010,000 bail.**
The Mayoralty or New York.—'The Barn
burners held their Convention to nominate a can
didate for Mayor, on the evening of the 21at, at
their head-quarters, eorne.* of Broadway and Lis-
penard-sta. The attendance was full, and the bal
lot unanimous in fovor of nominating bis Honor,
Wm. F. Havemeyeb, for re-election. The Hun
kers met at Tammany Hall and organized, but
did not succeed in making any nomination.—
John J. Cisco, and Mike Walsh, are talked
of in connection with the office, but their chances
have not yet been tested by a ballot. The Hunkers
will have to try again.
Q9» Mr. Benton’s speech on the Protocol in
Executive Session,'the Washington correspondent
of the Philadelphia American states, it is his pur
pose to publish in extenso after the adjournment,
it is the privilege of every Senator to apeak of
his own acts in executive session, providing they
do not violate the injunction of privacy.
CT The Senate adjourned on Friday last, the
f the consuls,

GONDE DE ALCOY.
Havana, March 1,1849.
ilt * Tiie Aerial Locomotive Started.—The New
York 'JYibune gives the following account of tho
,l " experiments with this machine, on Tuesday:
'•’An exhibition of the model of Porter & Rob-
john’s icriul locomotive wns made yesterday after-
noon in the Exchange, ami wns perfectly success-
■ 4ul. The float, or spindle-shaped balloon, mado
til fiild-bcnter’ii skin, was about tan feet long, to
which was suspended a atcain-cnginc in nunia-
tore, weighing—fire, water nnd nil complete—
* L,,UI Uirca or Tour pound*. Kolu-ilhslamling it.
Trouble iu Canada.—L hi. boon staled that
thcro Iiavo been Iniporlent dlspntchc received In
Washington by the BtlU.lt Mlntiter, touching »r-
fairs in Canada. Tho present excitement over
the border h is grown out of an attempt by the
Canadian Parliament to indemnify thoeo persona
who took part in what is called tho Rebellion, in
1837. The bill for their indemnity has passed the
Upper Houso by a small majority, but not with
out tho most violent opposition. A protest was
entered by the minority, and strong appeals
mado, iu which a Convention and Independent
of Die mother country were, hlutcd at. Great
anxiety is felt in regard to the probable course
of the Governor General. It wss not known
whether he would give the bill his sanction
or not; yet a rumor was in circulation that
he would reserve it for the assent of the Queen.
In consequence of this uncertainty, addresses
have been sent in from all parts of tho provinces,
the tone of some of which is reported as being
rather revolutionary. The metropolis Is still
quiet, and no movement will probably bo made
until the Governor General’s course is asccr-
tained. Should ho sign the bill, it la thought
that tho next step by the people would bo to call a
Convention at Kingston. The Montreal Courier
publishes the proceedings of a public meeting, at
which resolutions to the same effect were passed
with tremendous ehecra. " But one feeling, says
the Courier, '’animated the meeting and is shared
by the whole country; and that is, never to submit
to the payment of the rebels. Let the Parliament
puss the bill, let the Governor sanction it if ho
pleases, but while there is axe and rifle on the fron
tier, and Saxon hands to wield them, these losses
toill not be paid.”
A writer in die ICingtton Chronicle goes against
tho domination of tho French party under tho
Union with great bitterness, and contends for re
peal. It says lliat three alternatives are presented
to tho people of the Province*:
Tho first is a return to the pre-existing system,
witli the exception that the principle of responsi
ble government should be continued.
Tiiesecoud is severance of the constitution with
England, and annexation to tiie United States.
Tin? third, a federal union of all the British
North American Provinces under tiie dominion of
our beloved Sovereign.
With regard to annexation, the Colonist of the
6th Inst., makes the following announcement: •
"Nov* as the North American Colonics are at
present situated, they are on tho evo of making
new commercial connections, which must ne
cessarily be followed by new political connections
also.
• • Wc have no longer, it may be said, any
interest in rontinuinga connection, which, in time
of pcacd offers no perceptible advantage, and in
the event of war would expose us cruelly to the
belligerent operations of our neighbors. * • •
Circumstances now betoken Umt it •will not be
long before commercial preference on the one
hand, nnd colonial nnd imperial differences on
the other, will carry into effect what has been so
solemnly predicted.
* * We shall have no cause to regret that
change, whenever it shall take place, be it sooner
or later.”
In the speech made by J. G Vansittabt, Esq.,
at a public dinner given him at Hamilton, we
find the following sentence as reported by the
Ilnmilton Gazette:
'Petitions should at once be sent, not only to
tho Governor General, but to our most gracious
Queen, against the Representation bill, which
would give us into the hands of the French, when
there would be nothing left us but to conquer the
French race again, or to seek a more irieudly
government.’'
The Montreal correspondent of the Toronto Pa
triot says:
•‘The only 'on dit' of the day, worthy of credit
—you must uot give dny to thu*#. 1 mentioned in
the newspapers—refers to tho ’under current’
leaning of the Anglo £axpns here toward an an
nexation with their brethren of the United State*,
unjustly and untruly attributed to them by Lord
Durham iu hit time, but true os the go«pcl note.”
The Montreal ll'itneu has an article in which
the advantages and disadvantages of Annexation
are discussed. It refers to the large majority
which a union with the United States would give
to the free States in Congress t Ono object of that
journal, among others, seems to be a desire to in
crease the non-sla vcholding States aud to crush
the institutions of> the South.
BnHMtUNU
accordingly." ...
Since the abovo was in typo wo notice the fol
lowing tn-(he Washington letter of ‘‘Indepen
dent,” In tho Philadelphia North American:
"The President has directed the recall or Mr.
... W. Ellsworth, as Charge d'Aflaires at Stock-
Iwlm, upon tho evidence of his participation in
tiie affair which ixu| recently been tho subject of
much just' and indignant comment m tho
.The Question Settled.—The “Union" car
ries its carping against the new Administration
of the Government, (says the National Intelligen
cer) beyond all bearable bounds. In that paper of
Friday last, for example, the attention of its read
ers is called “to tho moral effect” . f the fact that
the appointment of Mr. Penrose to the post of
Assistant Secretary of the Treasury has been de
clared to be not “on appointment of tho Admin
istration, but ono made by Mr. Meredith,” (tho
Secretary of ihe Treasury ;)-wbcrcat the venerable
Editor expresses his horror of such a "shifting of
responsibility” from the President upon his Se
cretary, and asks the question, "And is this real
ly the doctrine which is to be preached up by the
Administration?" To which wo reply, Yes,
really: the doctrine “preached up” by the present
Administration is thstof implicit obedience to the
laws. In the very number of Uie Union in which
this question is found was published at large tho
Actof Congress containing the provision by which
the office of Assistant Secretary of tho Treasury is
established, the terms of which arc literally as
follows:
"Sec. 13. -And be it further enacted, That an offi
ce! shall bo appointed iu the Treasury Depart
ment, by the Secretary of the I'reasury, to be called
the Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, whoso
salary ffinll be three thousand dollars per annum,
&c., nnd who shall perform all such other duties
in the office of the Secretary of tho Treasury,
now performed by some of ins clerks, as maybe
devolved on him by the Secretary of the 'J
Mobe Pipe-latino.—The following resolution,
adopted at a political meeting in King George
county, Vn., the other day, looks like pipe-laying,
as we never knew that a voter was entitled to
more than one vote:
'Resolved, That each one of us, determines by
activity and zeal, to do more than cast outvote for
A. R. Holtaday; and that by such means through
out (he District, we. will not only elect him, but
as wc hope an(Tbelieve by a decisive majority.”
A Long Pas*age.—The brig Howard, sixty days
from New Orleans, arrived at Boston oil Monday
week. ^
STEAWSEsaiE*.—Thd Boston Journal says a-box
of Rtrartbr-rics—the first of the season—has been
received the Tremont House. Cost 08. They
were raised at Brighton
AabonBusb Revelations.—In a search made
in Madrid among the papers referring to the his-
toryof Louisiana, when that Siato was under
Spanish rule, a number of papers was discovered
containing many important matters throwing
light on the Buaa conspiracy and the conduct of
General Wilkinson. In due time, it is presumed,
the public will have possession of these interest
ing facta. • .

celebrated Methodist Protestant Preacher, Tho

issued a decreeordering bresdstuffs, and particu
larly corn, to bo admitted through the porta of

imports.
Statistics of Montheal —From tho -general
statement of the baptisms, deaths, Ac., in the
District of Montreal, Canada, for the year 1848,
we find that there were, during Uiat time, 19,868
births; 3,119 marriages; burials, 9,318; number
of parishes, 137. ■ -
North Carolina Fibiiehum.—'The "Old North
State," published at Elizabeth City, N.'C,, says
tltat'Uia fishermen have commenced operations in
that vicinity. Mr. Wm. Charles 'caught 1,100
•had and 13/X10 herrings at one haul.
sury," kc.
Under this plain and positive enactment, who
but the Secretary of the Treasury could have ap
pointed the Aaoutanl Secretary ?
Let the Union be reassured. The last thing
that can ever be truly alleged against President
Taylor will be his shrinking from any responsi
bility that his station devolves upon him.
The Diplomatic Smuggling Case.—We have
published the item from the New York Commer
cial, (says the Baltimore Sun) alleging against
tho American Charge to Stockholm, a disgrace
ful participation', under the sanction of bis official
character in the smuggling of goods into the
Swedish port of Stockholm. In the Ilaity Journal,
published at Lafoyctte, Indiana, (the home resi
dence of Mr. Ellsworth,) we find the following
explanation, tending to remove the stigma which
otherwfw* attache* to him. The Joivval say".
"We have been shown a private letter from Mr.
Ellsworth, doted at Stockholm, October, 30,1818,
from which we are permitted to make an extract
that would seem to exculpate him entirely, and
fix upon another the reproach with which he
stands accused. The extract is substantially in
these words;
"He (says Mr. E., alluding to a gentlemen
whose name is purposely withheld,) bad tho im
pudence to forward all the purchases he made du
ring his journey, to my address; and io exj
that I would reclaim Ihe same, free qf duty! H
a collection was never got together before: sweet
meats, silk curtains, petticoats, new linen, maps,
and a go-cart for children; carpets, liarns, flour,
and perfumery, contained in about twenty trunks
and boxes. My refusal to aid him, as he bad ex
pected, aroused his avarice,and led him to employ
ungcntlcmanly language in a note he wrote to me.
My answer was conceived and expressed with
more feeling than his own, and admitted of no re
ply. As soon as I received his communication,
•imply answered it as follows:
" ‘Sir: With the assurance that your polite note
of this morning Iws received all the consideration
It so eminently deseves, I am, kc.,
" *H. W. Ellsworth.
"These few words threw him into a most vio
lent passion; and ho is. welcome to continue it at
bis pleasure. My whole action in the matter was
right: and I have therefore determined to let it
stand, without any attempt at reconciliation. It
iMi in fact*, a good ‘finale* to the series of disagreea
ble interviews I have had with him.
"Bo much for pel ty quarrels, which copsidering
the person* who offended me, are hardly worth nl-
1 udingto.”
- Tho Wnahingtor. Union says on this subject:
"Wo aro unabla to ascertain tho facts of the
case; but we are satisfied that the lato administra
tion had no official information td diicct them n
the consideration of Its merits. - Jt is due, . how-

The Mexican Protocol Difficulty.— Corres*
jxmdencebetwirn the (too Government.— 1 The Wash
ington comapomlcnt of tho Now York Express,
says:
Oftho "Mexican Protocol,” Ilearnbeyond what
. have before said, that it has been a subject of
controversy betweeu the official representatives of
thaAwo Okvornmenta, but tho correspondence has
decided iWlhtng, and tho subject hns been be-
.. ‘ J -’-’-*“**““ y the late
Icate, per-
*” The ^lexicon Minister claims that to all intents
aud purposes the so-called "Protocol” is a part of
tho Treaty, and that without the explanatory pro-
visions It could never have been “approved and
signed” by the Executive and Ministers of tlio
Aft-xican Government.
Tho answer is, that the Mexican Congress ap-
irovcd tiie treaty independently of tho Protocol,
and before the Protocol was signed, and that the
explanations were sn after act. Tho response is
that it was no treaty without tho official signa
tures, and that Uie Executive wns a part oftho
treaty making powtr, and tho only negotiator
known to the Alexicaa Government.
The replication Spain is that tiie treaty, as ap
proved by the Senals and Executive here, is left
open only to tho lair construction of the original
text by both Govcrnncnta.
There nro points enough to msko the contro
versy interminable. Tho 8cnate hero, however,
never knew anything of the Protocol until it was
recently brought k> light. They arc, therefore,
called upon to dhavow it, nnd tho construction
—* upon it by the Alcxlcan Government. It has
_...i deemed necessary by some to raise this ques
tion before the payment of the second instalment
of tho 015,000,600.
09* The people of Alichigati do not liko the idea
of reciprocal trade between the United States and
Canada. Notice has been given in the Legisla
ture of an intention to bring in a joint resolution
instructing tho Alichigan Senators and Member*
of Congress to oppnsj the passage of such a bill
as has been before Congress during the past ses
sion. It is urged in support of such step that such
privilege to the Canadians would be suicidal to
tho interests of Michigan,
The Canal.—At the tunnel on tho Chesapeake
and Ohio Csnnl, 75,000 bricks aro mnnufuctured
daily. The Hagerstown Netot says:
Four inontlis constant work at this rale will be
required for the completion of tlio tunnel. Tho
friends of tho work confidently anticipate the
opening oftho canal to Cumberland by the first of
October.. The funds in hand are more tlmn suffi
cient to carry through the work, and in view of
its completion boat* arc being built all along the
I ne, and contracts bolug entered into for the de
livery of coal.
Gun Cotton as a Locomotive Power.—A late
English pnper announces that experiments had

It appears that this explosive material, when
twUtctt or matted, burns slowly, or at any rate os
•lowly as wished, depending on the tightucss of
the twist, or the extent or compression. Thus

From Yucatan.—Return qf the American Vol
unteers.—The ship Tennessee, Capt. Watts, ar-.
rived at New-Orleana on the 15th inst., from
Silas, with a dctachincnt of 250 men of the Auier-
can volunteer regiment, which had been dis
banded. The Ncw-Orleaus Delta says:
The disbanding of the regiment, iu the manner
n which it was dooe, is disgraceful to the author-
tice of Yucatan. The regiment left this city un
der a solemn promise from Governor Barbachano,
that each private should be paid 080 a mouth,
should receive a suit of clothes every three months,
and, at the expiration of the term of service, 320
acres of land. The regiment was between three
and four months in service. During that time,
hey had several severe engagements with the
niiiuus, nnd from Tekax to Tinosuco and Valla-
dolid, drove the enemy before tliem, until they
now have paesetdonor no position of importance,
except Bacaisr, near Ballzo, Honduras.
The regiment was besieged eight days in Tiho-

extremity that officers and privates had nothing

Cotton.—Fair American Cotton, at the close of
the week ending on the 3d instant, not only
maintained its ground, but reached a point above
tiie price* offered nt the time of tho sailing of the
America. Tho sales of that week amounted to
60.000 bales.
Tho following week, however, ending on the
10th Inst, tho disastrous accounts from India, and
U>e advices of the Niagara, that thero was a large
®*ce>i of receipts of the article iu this country, at
the principal Cotton receiving porta, caused a de

full farthing per pound took place.

1’olltlcal Intelligence,
ENGLAND.—The British Parliament, by a
large majority, Iravo decided against the reform
and retrenchment project. The proposition for
tho abrogaUon of tho Navigation Laws meets with
very genoml favor throughout Europe, and a fa
vorable response was expected from this country.
FRANCE.—Theexistmggovernmentcoutinues
to rather strength, and a growing disposition was
oviliccd on the part of other nations to crush any
attempt at public disorder. Taking all circum
stances into consideration, tho prospects of contin
ued tranquility aro more favorable than has been
exhibited for the last year.
INDIA.—The accounts from the East Indies
are, as it stated, disastrous to the English. A
great battle with the Sikhs hndftaken place, in
which tho English army, although claiming a
victory, bad sustained a loss of over two thousand
men, among whom they counted nine-three offi-
ccrs Four pieces of ordnance, and four or flvo
regimental colors are also said to have been aban
doned, and the acknowledgment made that two
more sucli victories would bo injurious to their
arms.
. CONTINENTAL AFFAIRS.—The warlike at
titude taken by Russia, Ptussia and Austria in
reference to Italian mutters, had caused an uneasy
feeling, and materially affected commercial af
fairs, in connection with the East India news.
Tho English funds hod recoded fully ono per
cent wituin Uie last fortnight in consequence.

At a meeting of tho Board of Directors, the
following Preamble and Resolutions wero passed:
Wherxas, The Capital stock of this Company
subscribed is only 02,550,000. of which is paid in
the sum of 02,649,165, while tho cost of con
structing andequippiug Uio Road, stands upon
its books at 02,660.000, after having charged
account for depreciation or over cost, tho sum of
0218,814 29, which has at various Umcs been ta
ken from the Reserved Fund or earnings of the
Company:
And, Whereas, There is still a Reserved Fund
of 0160,861 25, of which at least 0100,000 hus
been invested in tho Road and its equipments,
showing that tho sum of 0319,814 29 has been of
necessity taken from Uio Road earnings for want
of an auequuto capital, instead of being divided
among (ho Stockholders, a system, which in tho
present condition of Uiings should cense;
And, whereas, this Board considers that tho said
sum of 02,650,000 nt which the investment now
stands upon tho books of the Company ns below
the fair cash value of tho Road ana equipments,
without further additions to them J
And, whereas, Uio rapidly increasing business
of the Road has mado it tno duty of this Board,
asit is the maqifost interest of the Company to meet
it by contracting for 6,500 tons of rails, to relay

The TclegrapiT ra Germany.—Two great
telegraph lines which were begun last year, are
now to bo completed, one of theso lldcs goes
from Berlin, by Alagdcbourg, Hanover and Min-
den, to Cologne, and from there to the frontier of
Belgium. The other extends from Berlin, by
Cocthcn, I In Ice,'Eisenach nnd Csssel, to Frank-
fnrton the Main. The establishment of three oilier
telegraph lines will fcn begun shortly, viz:—1.
From Berlin to Stettin. 2. From Bcrirn to Ham

Whio and Toar.—Macaulay, in*his history of
England, page 240, in referring to tho conflict
between Uio adherents of tho Duke of York and
the Earlof Shaftesbury, when every couuty, town
and family.Was in agitation,and Uie civilities and
hospitalitlcsofncighuorhoodf,werc?intarruptcdand
even school boys were divided into angry parties,
•ays at this time were first heard two nicknames,
which though originally giv.ra it, insult, were
soon assumed with pride, which are still in daily
use, which have spread as widely as tho English
race, and which will last as tongas tho English
literature. Ho remarks it as a curious circum
stance, that one of the nicknames was of Scotch
and the other of Irish origin.
•Both in Scotland and in Inland, misgovern-
ment had railed Into existence bands ofdcsparate
men, whose ferocity wns heightened by religious
enthusiasm. In Scotland, some of tho persecuted
Covenanters, driven mad by oppression, had late
ly murdered (lie primnte, hod taken arina'aguinst
tho government,^had obtained somo advantage*
against the king’s forces, nnd had not been put
down till AlonmouUi, at tho head af some troops
from England, had routed them nt IJoUi well
Bridge. Tlicso xealota wero most numerous a*
mong the rusUcs of tho western lowlands, who
were vulgarly colled Whigs. Thus the appclla-
tion of Whig wnj fastened on tho Presbyterian
zcnlqtaofScotland, and wns transferred to Uiose
English politicians who showed a disposition to
opposo the court, and to treat Protestant Noncon-
formUts wlUi indulgence. The bog* of Ireland,
at the samo time, afforded a refuge to Popish out
laws, much rcKcmbllngthonewhowcreaflerwards
known as Whlteboys. These men wero then
called Tories, The name of Tory was, therefore
given to English men who refused to concur In
excluding a *Koniwi. CaUiolic Prince from the
throne.’

whereas, it is manifestly unjust to Uio
Stockholders, if it can bo avoided, Uiat
io said expenditure (being for conatrucUon and
pcrinatncut improvements, nnd a far different
matter from repairs) should fnll on them by tho
absorption of the earnings of their capital, in
stead of dividing Uie some, more especially *o,
when tbo present investment is worth fully dollar
for dollar, the sum at which it stands charged; •
And whereas, it is evident from the past and
present, that tho road on its present footing, can
annually earn at least eight per cent on a capital
of 03,000,000, having earned 9 1-2 per cent on its
present capital lost year, and ns so far the raUo of
incrcoso this year snows still better things;
And whereas, when its capabilities are increased
and its condition improved hy tho new iron, thus
leracuing wear and tear of machinery, cost of ro
pairs, and expediting business, Uie ratio of nett
earnings must bo still greater;
Resolved, therefore. That tho Board suggests
the great advantage of, nnd hereby recommend
to Uie stockholders an increase of the capital stock
of Uiis Company, whereby the proposed improve
ment of Uio Road, and the new investment in

ings of the Road or its present means, and with
out foregoing fair ana proper dividends of its

Resolved, That tills Hoard recommend that the
said increase of capital shall be to a total of
