pay six per cent, on l-12th part ofthe ORR
ginal cost of constructing it.
Nearly the whole amount OF stock ne

this company have the right to keep the
public perpetually upon this road, whether
they have forfeited their charter by allow
ing the road to remain in its present intole-

can be effected with thcm,by which plank

this magnificent public nuisance can be a.

the merits of this important subject, in the

PITTsBURG, Jan. 2I.-The kossuth re-
cepiion ceremonies took place this morning,
at the St. Charles Hotel, on the balcony
About eleven o'clock, after kossuth had
received and replied TO the depu,ations
from several places, he was presented to
the people by Hon. w. w. Irwin.
Col S. w. Black then welcomed the dis
tinguished Hungarian in one of the most
chaste and effective speeches ever derv
cred by him.
The Colonel was replied to by Kossuth,
in a manner fully sustaining his high re-
putation as an orator and patriot. His
speech was listened to with great atten
ton, but frequently interrupted by enthu-
sasiic cheers from the excited multitude,
who were loath to dispersc.
At the conclusion of the ceremonies
Col. Black again came forward. and sta
ted that the people were the Jurors, and
asked for a verdict against the Russian
Bear and his Austrian Cub, which was
loudly given.
Kossuth then replied that courts of law
were usually invested with power TO sus,
tain their verdicts, and he hoped The verdict
of the jury would also be sustained.
After some music by the bands, the
crowd slow ly dispersed.
