ANDREW JOHNSON.
Washington Jan. 7th 1867.

SOUTHERN pACrFC REuHoAD--We have
before us the "annual report to the stock
holders of the Southern Pacific railroad
company" for the year ending September
!, 1866, which shows n healthy state of the
affairs of the company. The report Of
Colonel Waskom, the president, is terse and
to the point, giving plain and unvarnished
statement of his stewardship and the con-
dition and prospects of the company. From
the treasury report VIC learn that the COM
pnny's assets, on the lst Of ofSeptember were
81, ,3G5,907 "a, and their liabilities 81 $780,
0l3 Is, showing an excess of assets over
liabilities of 6,S94 SO. The receipts from
all sources were $780, OF, and their ex-
penditures--fo the building ofthe fourteen
miles of new road, new cars, the repairs Of
the old road, &c.--were Sl9l, 1853 81, leav-
ing n balance in the hands Of the agents Of
Sc, 166 SO, and in the treasury 81, 1863 S5.-
This, we think, is very good showing
considering the vast amount of work done
oy the company, under SO many disadvaa.-.;;-
ages. The chief engineer recommends the
extension, of the road beyond Marshall in
which he is strongly supported by president
waskom. The Superintendents report
shows that he has had his hands full, and
that he has done ample justice TO the labor
imposed on him. The reports are every
way creditabe to their authors, and we
trust satisfactory to the stockholders.
Col. waskom, in concluding his report
with "P. s., says:
"The delay in publishing this report, has
been caused by various circumstances l.
The aston of the legislature of this State
was looked for with interest that might be
desirable to be known to you. Nothing
having been done bearing on cur interest
either favorable or unfavorable, 1t was de-
termined to publish. 2. Since our stock
holders meeting, 5th September, the road
and rolling stock kss been greatly improved
and increased, and the receipts over the
road, forty-two miles in length, is $500 per
day,' and no doubt will reach $50 per day
by the lstof December '-ShrerPort South

A Washington special to the New

York Sun. of the 25th says:
The President to-day. in conver-
sation with a friend, expressed his
unabated confidence in the final
triumph Of his restoration policy.
He also took occasion to condemn
the project that was being advocat-
ed in Congress for the overthrow of
the present State Governments at
the South, and declared thai il would
release those State Governments
from the payment Of their State
debts, and impose them upon the
United States. Mr.. Seward has re-

not the safest cure for the evils which President
Johnson is inhic,ing upon the country. II a

himself in our castle, while we may have an
undisruted right to drive him out if we pull
the castle down about bis ears and our own In
the effort, it may yet be wiser for US to patient

furious to ourselves. And while there may
be, and We think there is, no doubt of the legal
right Of Congress to remove President John

us that the better way is to bide our time, and
remove him twenty months hence by the un-
questionable verdict of the people at the ballet
box.

The Next Governor.

A correspondent of the Brattleboro PheniE
has suggested the name of Hon. John w.
Stewart of Middlebury, for next Governor,
whereupon the Burlington Free Press says
There might be worse names suggested; but
is it not little early to begin TO agitate in put
lie the question Of the succession to Governor
Dillingham;
Walton's Daily comments as follows
An excellent nomination, but there may be
other excellent ones, and as it is the turn OF
our western friends, are ready to hear from
them.
The next Governor, By the custom, will be
from he west side of the State, and that side
ought to agree upon its man. If it does the
east side will not interfere. We Judge, by a
hint in the Ph0nir, that Hen. John B. Page,
of Rutland, has been spoken OF favorably in
snme quarters. as snncsssor 10 Governor Dbl
ngham. and he as we'll as Mr.. Stewart would
undoubtedly be an unohj eetonabe candidate.
The Lieutenant Governor will, of course, be on
the east side, and probably some military
gentleman will have that place the ticket.
We have heard Major Rounds name meDtion-
ed frequently with much favor in connection
with that office.

RxnsAsTs OF SLAvEnY.-The Telegraph
brings US the following.
Two colored boys, who escaped from their
former master, q, Watkins, of Montgomery
county Mary land, were brought before Judge
Wylle, of The Supreme Cour; OF this district
yesterday, on d writ of habeas corpus, and at
ter hearing the Court ordered the children
to lie returned 10 their OLD master. The
ground Of such restitution was based upon
eviIeuce that the children had, under
Maryland statute, been apprenticed to Wat
KIDS after their emaGcp patton. The counsel
ior the relatives of the children pleaded Ill
treatment by the masier, and that the ap-
prentIclHg OF the children was in violation of
the Civil Rights bill, in that laws of Mary
land, the subject OF apprentjc,ng the chill
dIen Of emanci pated slaves. make q distinc-
ton between white and coiored that they
do not require the master 10 educate the lat
ter and, further, Tat these children were
apprenticed without the consent of their
natural protectors.
The evidence went to show that these cali
dren we're III 8 most destitute and deplorable
condition when they reached their father In
Georget0wn, berg covered with 7ermin, and
their clothes ragged and dirty.
The mother, who had been the slave OF
Watkins, had died since her Emancipation, Ia
the woods, from sheer neglect and hunger
These facts were test fed 10 upon the hesriog
Of the case.
Alter the orde, Of the court an appeal was
taken, but before service could be mad the
master departed with the children.
The Civil Rights act provides that there oe
no discrimination in the laws Of any state,
against persons on account Of color. Does any
one suppose If President johnson was inclined
TO enforce that their kind OF kidna ping (ior
though under the color OF law 1t was 10 bet
ter than kiinappipg) would be allowed in
sight of the executive residence!

The GREAT Snow SToRM.-Anothers storm,
and in some places the severes that has been
known for several years, has just De en- raging
over nearly all the New Eagland States, New
York and Pennsylvania, extending as far south
a. Washington, and as far west as Cincinnati.
IL began Thursday morning Jan II, and con-
tinued, accompanied by terrific gale, through
the rest Of the day. Ia Boston it ragged SO
violently that the horse cars we're obliged to be
Withdrawn, and sieighs used in their stead
All the trains running rortherly and westerly
we're thoroughly bockaded, and communioa
ton cut Oft generally. 1t showed until
Friday morning without cessation, and two
and one-half feet of snow lie reported to
have fallen. IN New York it was not quite so
violent and the trains, although they were all
behind time, managed to reach their destini
ton. At Providence, Ri ode Island, he street
and steam railroads were completely blockad-
ed, and business nearly suspended. AT Nor
wich, Connecticut, over twenty inches of snow
fell. Ga the Pittsburg road in Pennsy lvania,
in some places the snow was four feet deep.
The loss and accidents, upon the sea have not
yet been correctly ascertaned, but the papers
have accounts OF various wrecks along the
coast, and the loss OF many lives.
This storm came to US from England, where
in London the / inst. the snow fell TO such
depth 10 seriously interfere with busi-
ness, and make the Metropolis present most
dismal poearancs. 10 New England it has IN
doub,edly Gee t1e ssvtrest storm that ms &C.

In Vermont the storm was not severe, al
though there has been slight fall of snow aud
much wind.
