NEW ARRANGEMENT
Commencing first Of January, l849.

Various efforts, during the year 1S40, to
induce the Legislature to repeal the Charter
OF this well-know Company. having signally
failed the Directors have the pleasure OF as
suring their numerous friends and patrons,
that this Road to Ruin is now in a more pros
perous condition than ever Within the last
three months it has carried more than three
hundred thousand passengers, who have gone
nil the way Through" from the town of
Temperance to the city of Destruction. while
the number OF "way" passengers who have
been accommodated with very convenient
cliffs" has been almost incredible. An en-
ormous amount of freight, such workmens
fools household furniture, &c, has also gone
forward and from these and other sources of
revenue the receipts OF the year have been so
large, that the directors have resolved 10 de-
clare dividend of at least five hundred per
cent.
Meanwhile immense expenditures have been
made in various parts of the road to render it
a favorite with the travelling public. Many
ofthe grades have been altered, and SO reduced
that only practical eve can discern the diff
ference between them and dead level
Much Of the track that was away has
been relaid with Messrs. Satans q Go. pat
ent rail. Convenient Depots have been es-
tablished at different parts of the route, tor
the better accommodation of passengers who
NAV be waiting the arrival of the Trains
The Switches have been particularly guarded,
and numerous Turnouts have been made to
avoid collision with the Total Abstinence
Engine and the Temperance Trains, which
have lately occasioned so much uneasiness.
In short we have spared no exertion or ex-
pence to make it superior TO any other Road
to Ruin that has thus far been established.
1t further gives us pleasure TO say that e.
FL
ment of the Engines and the Cars. The old
and favorte locomotive Alcohol has beer
thoroughly repaired, and 10 the experienced
hands of Mr.. Bea (thc foreman of Satan:
g. Col we are satisfied that it will outstrip il
speed any thing on the road. To fall in will
the spirit of the times, the Whiskey Rum anC
Brandy Cars for forward passengers have beer
greatly enlarged, and the fare reduced to hal
price The new Cider Car that has been pu
on within few months has already began to
excite great attention, and are happy tC
say has been found TO run as well ou the track
ms any other. But the wine cars especially
are models of luxurious conveyance, as ever
ladies aud children can travel in them often
times without being aware that they trav
cling ut all. Passengers, however, who pre-
fertile Beer Car, Porter Car, &C.. can readl
" be accommodated % showing their ticket.
10 Mr.. Mix, our polite and gentlemany Con

known as the bar keeper of Drinkers Hotel, ,
