The present president and directors were, after the

more than that of the preceding year, and the
largest ever received by the road. Out of this, tho
annuity of $4,000 to the State, and two dividends
OF six per cent. each, amounting TO 1886, have
been met. The second OF these dividends will be
payable on the lst November proximo.
Thirty seven thousand one hundred and eleven
tons of freight have been carried the TOAD dur
ing the year. OF this q, 500 tons transport
ed from east to west, and 1851 in contrary di-
rcction. OF the important article of -four, the
amount has been 202, 49i barres-a decrease of
1864 from the preceding year. This falling of is
attributable to the extremely low prices of bread
stuffs which have ruled during the year, and
which have caused the retention by our farmers
of large portions Of their crops. There has been
decrease also in plaster and iron, and increase
in coal and manganese. The aggregate tonnage
movement, however, exhibits but slight diminu'
ton, while the receipts from passengers have ad-
vanced from S23 SCI 81 to $26,4S7 II.

own six engines in running order, forty large
freight cars, and lour passenger care. No person

Mr. Dallas's Letter.

The Frankfort (Ky.) Commonwealth, comment
ing upon the Hon. G NJ Dallas's late letter, re-
marks:
60 One of his positions is that the Compromise has
failed to tranquiliZe the country and in attempting
to ortify his opinion upon this point, he has been
guilty of gross misrepresentation OF the Whig
party Of certain States, which we not disposed
to poss without notice. Speaking Of the action OF
parties subsequent to the passage of the Compro-
mise, he says
''vermont, Massachusetts,, Ohio, New York,
and even Pennsylvania, exhibited in succession snd
proof that their respective portions OF the great
Wing party were unwilling to forego the customary
rallying outcry against the South
''Here ID downright falsehood, implied if not
expressed and which shows clearly enough
that the writer's statements not to be depended
upon in relation to political subjects. He says not
one word about the action of the Democratic party
in the States named in relation to this subject, but
the implication and intended impression that
the Wings, and they alone, opposed the Compro-
mise and raised the 'rallying outcry against the
South What is the TRUTH In Vermont the Demo
Gratis, not the Wings, united with the Abolitoniste
or Free soilers, and the Wings trumphed by beat
ing the coalition. In Massachusetts the Democrats
and Abolitioniss made great regular partnership,
and, in opposition TO the Wings, elected Rantool,
Free-soil Democrat, and Sumner an Abolitionst
who was once a Whig, to the United States Senate.
In Ohio the coalition between the Democrats and
Free -soilers is too well known to be denied; and,
VIC showed in our last the reelection of Cover
nor Wood is the result of their joint efforts In New
York the Free soil portion of the Democratic par
ty, amounting to more than one-half of the whole,
has been received into full communion with the
other portion, and in their recent State Conven-
tion composed of both factions, resolutions which
offered approving the Compromise were re-
jectcd by being laid upon the table. In Pennsyl-
vania neither party have directly sustained
directly opposed the Compromise, but the party
which has elected as Governor n man who support
ed the law of S47 TO obstruct the recapture of iu-
gitive slaves, and made Wilmot, the author of the
odious proviso, one of its regular candidates for
judgeship, justly claim superiority over its
opponent in regard to friendliness for the South.
What Importance can be attached to the opinions
of n man who is so unscrupulous as to facts? And
why. especially, should man of Mr.. Dallass high
position disgrace himself by uttering such SLAM
der upon the Whig party?''

The people are beginning to understand, too
that the various Syrups of Sarsaparilla are little
better than moIasses, and that il is madness TO

Thus hore, so necessary, an ally to medi-

Sarsaparilla a good purifier! DR.. Cullen's
Panacea contains its extract in its most concen-
trated form. Added to this are other extracts
more active and powerful, and which effect in
combination with the Sarsaparlla, what the lat

poisons, cannot alone accomplish.

and this in multitude of cases-not in Europe
or in the moon, (where so many great cures

ESSENCE OF COFFEE.

A BOUT two years ago new discovery
1Awas made in Europe, consisting OF a
substitute for the ordinary store coffee, called
Essence of Coffee, which has gone INTO gen.
eral use with astonishing rapldity, not only
among the poorer classes, who at once DIS
pensed with the use of the celebrated Chick
ory Coffee, but is now in general use in the
wealthiest families and the first hotels, aud
Is highly recommended by the medical fac
ulty.
II is extracted from pure, wholesome veg
etables, and excels all similar preparalo ons
that have ever been offered TO the public,
either in this country or in Europe. Its SUI
perior quality has already been attested 10 in
the cities by some of the most eminent phys
icians, and number of The most distinguish
ed of the cleray and other highly respectable
citizens. Coffee made from this essence ac-
cording TO the prescription obtains more
delicious and pleasant favor than the COM
mon store coffee, and is certainly more
wholesome, especially for persons in deli
cate health, which will be admitted by eve-
ry physician who will take the pains TO test
the natuIe and properties of this essence.
