Baltimore and Ohio Railroad.

the annual meeting Of the stockholders
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad was
held this morning at the Office OF the Com
pany in Hanover street. At the hour fix
ed FOR the meeting, Gen. O'Donnell rose

Esq, be appointed secretary. The mo-
ton was adopted, when Mr.. Hoffman took
the chair and stated the objec. OF the meet.
ing.
Mr.. Harrison, the President Of the Com.
pany, then rose and addressed the stock
holders. He regretted that the report OF
the President and Directors of the compa-
~ was not then ready to lay before the
meeting, as the facts and statements which
it mus. embody would be certainly looked
for with interest by the stockholders. From
the press OF business on the road, the at
tention to which had engrossed the time OF
the Superintendent and the officers, they
had not been able to make up the state
ments till it was too late to examine into
them, and write and print the report so as
to lay it before the meeting. They had
now the materials on hand, and the re-.
port would soon be in the hands OF the
printer and laid before the public.
Mr.. Harrison, in his short but most in.
teresting address, referred to the affairs OF
the company, and the great amount OF
business the road had over it. He said
that the receipts Of the last six months
from April 10 October-exceeded that o!
the whole preceding year, and stated some

the company was only limited by the abil-
lty it had to transport the passengers and
freight that were offered 10 it.
Mr.. ii. said that the importance of in
creasing the facilities OF the road. by lay

est attention of the Directors, and tina,
they had decided that it ought 10 bodone-

GOULD to secure the borrowing OF the funds
wanted, On the best terms. To this end

thorities, at as early a day as possible. fol
the passage by the city council. of an or.
dinance. to guarantee the bonds that the

The remarks Of Mr.. Harrison were lis

by the stockholders present.

Bank Taxation,

On the 26th day of March last, GEO. c..
DODGE, Treasurer oil the county OF Cuya-
hoga, distrained for taxes assessed against
the Commercial Bank, the Merchants
Bank, the Canal Bank, and the City Bank.
in Cleveland, bank bills, to the amount Of
$38,981 90 and deposited them for safe
keeping in tine vault of the Cleveland In
surance Company.
AT about the hour of 10 o'clock the same
evening. the U. S. Deputy Marshal &C
companied by a "posse" Of Bank Presi-
dents, Cashiers and Attorneys. effected an
entrance into the office of the Insurance
Company and seized the several packages
Of bank bills, thus deposited by Mr.. DoDGE.
under a writ of replevin issued by the
Deputy Clerk of the U. S. Circuit Court,
who had been brought to Cleveland for the
purpose. The nominal plaintiff in this
replevin suit was JOHN G. DEsHLER. OIL
Buffalo, New York, who pretended to
claim the bank bills under a bill Of sale
on assignment made to him by the several
banks after the same had been seized and
taken away from their vaults by the Coun-
ty Treasurer. The bank bills were pu,
into the possession of DEsHLER, he giving
bail as the law requires to prosecute his
suit to effect.
The incident furnished at the time, food
for merriment to the Wing politicians in
Northern Ohio. and the bank attorneys,
Messrs. BIsHoP & BAcKus, and HORACE
Foor, were highly complimented in the
Wing journals, for their sagacity in con
irving a scheme whereby the law taxing
banks could be so easily defeated.
In this posture of affairs. the Treasurer
MIR. DODGE, called to his aid Judge SPALD'
ING, who is now practicing law in the city
Of Cleveland. This gentleman upon ex
animation, advised that exceptions be ia
ken to the Jurisdiction of the United States
Court in the matter. for the reason that the

provides that 'no assignee Of a chose ir

A German Incident.

1t appears, on the 31st Of March, last
year, a child was born at Seehausen, in
Prussia, which the father wished to be bap-
tized under the name OF jacob Waldeck,
each name being that Of a distinguished
democrat. The officiating clergyman re-
fused to bsptize the child under such de-
tested names The father was determined
it should be baptized as a democrat, or
nothing else, and accordingly was letting
it grow up without the rite. Such a hea-
flemish state Of things was not to be per-
mitted, and he was summoned before a
court, and a guardian appointed to the
child, who was empowered to baptize it
with or without the names desired by the
father, according as the consistory (of
~clergymen} should determine. They de-
cided that it should be baptized with the
usual names. The parents still refused to
send the child, and the guardian was pro-
ceeding to administer a forced baptism,
when the mother with her babe suddenly
disappeared, and could not be found.
A long search was made, and at length
they were both discovered by the police in
the neighboring village of Arendsee. They
were Immediately transported by the gems
d'armes to Seehausen, and put into pris-
on. From there, at the command of the
Bureermeister, the child was taken by the
soldiers, packed away in a basket. to the
church, and, with closed doors, the Bur-
eermeister and gems d'armes as Witnesses,
It was introduced into the great Christian
family; and in a few minutes was carried
back to its surprised parents a thoroughly
baptized christian child! This was not
the end of the matter. "The mother"
says the legal reporter of the Vossische

court, for resistance to an officer Of the
government. in the lawful performances of
his duty. and has been sentenced to two
months imprisonment" From later ac-
counts, it seems she has appealed 10 a

sustained! Nothing has occurred for years

and see that a just distribution of officers
was made between them.
You have a right by law to give instruc-
tons on many subjects connected with the
collection of the revenue; and such in
structions it will be my duty to follow; but
when you go beyond that and undertake
to direct in matters in which the law has
confided to my discretion no such obliga-
ton exists. As to some officers OF the

nomination, and the Secretary the right
of approval or reflections; and as to the
other officers, the power of appointment

ABLIND CoMposIroR.-The Greencastle
Banner gives the following account Of a
blind printer, now at work at the Chrome
type office, in Gosport, Indiana:
"One Of the gentlemen connected with
the establishment is a blind man, and sets
type remarkably well. He is the first blind
printer we ever came across. He stated
to US that his average days work was a.
bout FIVE thousand ems, and that he had
several occasions set from seven to
thousand. His letter is distributed
for him and his copy road by his partner,
his memory being SO perfect he can retain
from four to six lines; when this is finished
he cries the last word SET when another
is read. and thus continues on
through the day"
