penpsvIvania Railroad. /.

/ The annual meeting of the stockholders
of the PENNSYLVANIA Raiload Company
was held at Philadelp pha on Monday last.
From il we learn that the receipts from the
stock in payment Of instalments amounted
TO S8,IO3.465, and the disbursements TO
81, ,978, ,O89.82; leaving balance of $l25,-
375.lS. The interest accounts, it is stated
exhibit results equally gratifying. OF un-
conditional subscriptions to the stock, the
total amount is $8,326,050, and the con-
tingent subscriptions amount to S75O,OOo.
The subscription by the corporation ol
! the Northern Liberties is $250,OOO, ana
the stock payable TO contractors amounts
to the same, viz: $2j0,000. Thus the
aggregate of all subscriptions to the stock
/ is S9.576.00O. TO fill up the capital
/ stock to the present limit, the report states
| that further subscription OF stock will be
necessary to the amount of S423,950.
The cost of a single track from Harris
burg 10 Piusburg is estimated al Sl2,OOO,-
600. and an additional track is estimated
10 cost S3,G00,000 In August last, a
section of the Western Division Of the

port. distance of twenty-one miles, was
opened; the whole of that division is now
in use, through its entire length, except
from Beatty's Station to Turtle Greek, in
Westmoreland county, distance of twen-
ty-eight miles.
The report states that the Board con-
fdently anticipate the completion OF the
whole of the road, 10 be ready for use
before the close OF the navigation IN the
year 1853. To DO this, however, the
slock of the Company, II Is stated, must
be increased. or j debt incurred 10 the
amount of about S6,0OO,OOO and as the
whole policy Of the Board, since the com
mencement, has been, and is, in opposition
to the incurring debt. they recommend
that an application be made TO the Stale
Legislature for authority to make such an
increase Of the stock Of the Company as
may be necessary for this purpose. The
election for Directors was held on the same
dav. and resulted as follows:

CoNcERT.-The Druid Horn-Players
intend giving two concerts next week in
Lewistown, of a kind that is said to be
something decidedly new under the sun.
They bring the very best recommends
,ions from the press, and musical critics,
everywhere, and are represented as pro-
ducing with odd instruments of ancient
design,-being neither more nor less than
some seventy OK horns,-the sweetes music
imaginable. The novelty of the affair
will doubtless attract large audiences TO the
Hall--and we are certain that no one who
attends their concerts will be disappointed.

THE PARDoNING POwER.-Governor
Bigler has been considered somewhat I'M
fortunate in making his appointments, and.
from present appearances, he will fare no
better in exercising the pardoning power,
his first act in this respect being the pardon
Of a notorious Kidnapper, George F. Al
berti, Of Philadelphia, who was sentenced
year ago to tie Eastern Penitentiary for
ten years.
The Democrat of yesterday, We per-
ceiye, justifes this pardon on the ground
that his conviction was owing to the Sc
verify OF Judge Parsons, and says its
recollection Of the case is that Alberli was
sentenced for kidnapping a siaue. This
impression is entirely erroneous, the person
kidnapped being fire. in every sense OF
the word
