A. About one o'clock Mr. Tucker and myself called at Mr. Turner's house, and asked there for some informa- | tion respecting the vote for Alderman; Mr. Turner raid he could not give us any, as one of their number was absent; could not fell whether he meant one of the board was absent or one of the clerks. Something was said about ““C. Tucker tickets,’ by Mr. Turner, who said there were about forty one of them; this brought up some conver sation in reference to the boxes.

MEETING IN ALBANY CovnTy.—At a meeting of the anti-renters of Albany county, held at the house of John Van Dusen, in Reidsville, on the sth day of May, 1854, Charles Hyndman, of Westerlo, was ealled to the chair, and 8. L. Anabel, of the same town, was ap- | pointed Secretary. Matters affecting the interests of the tenants on the manor of Rensselaerwick were then discussed by Messrs. Sigebee, Filkins, and Finkle, after which, F. V. Filkins moved that an organization be entered into by the ten- ants in Albany county, for the burpose of resisting, b; every legal means, the collection of rents by the land- ion of Indian title to said manor shall be settled by our courts; and that a tax of one cent per acre be levied and collected from all the ‘members of the association, towards defraying the expense of any and all suits that may be commenced for rent, against any of its members, which motion was unanimously adopted. On motion, N. Sigsbee, Jr., E. N. Filkins, ands. 1. pointed a committee to draft, rules and regulations for the government of the association, to be submitted for the consider On motion of F. N. Filkins, John Bassler, Caleb kins, Charles Hyndman, and Robert Taylor, were ap- pointed a committee to confer and correspond with Mr. Fadeock, the agent of the Stockbridge Indians. A motion was made and carried unanimously, that the anti-renters celebrate the 4th day of July, at the honse of John Van Dusen, Esq., in Reiasvillo, and that Peter Fin- lorda, until the q kle, Dennison Fish, and Gardner Udell, be a committee to | procure an orator of the day. The meeting then adjourned, to meet on the 34 day of June next, at the same place, at 12 M. We learn from the Worcester Spy that in the case of Jonathan C, Richmond ys.

IuporTant Trrau at Pirrspw An impor- tant case is now on trialin the District Court, before Judges Hampton and Williams. It is that of Pierce C. Pequignot vs. the Pennsylvania Railroad Company. It appears that in the winter of 1851, Pequignot and his wife and child arrived in New York, in company with a In that city, Pennsylya- y to convey them to Pittsburg. The emigrants, in pursuance of the contract, arrived in Phi- Indelphia,” where they were placed in emigrant cara, | poorly supplied with fire and fuel to withstand the ex. treme coldness of the weather. The cars were two or three days going from Philadelphia to Lockport; from this point the road had not yet been completed to this city. The cars arrived in Lockport in the evening—the weather was very cold, there was no fire in tho cars. and the only shelter provided for the emigrants waa in an old shed, with a stove in it. At Lockport, the emi- grants remained two or three days, during which time they suffered severely from the extreme severity of the weather. The plaintiff, his wife and child, were frozen badly during that time. At the expiration of the three days, they were put into common country wagons, with- out covers, and brought to this city. When the wagons frozen to dvath; the chila was badly frozen, and was tak- en to the Mercy Hospital, where, notwithstanding great care, it died ina few days. Mr. Pequignot was also badly frozen. The action on trial was brought to reco- ver damages for the death of the child, and the damages received by Mr. Pequignot. In this case, the defend- ant’s counsel entered ‘he plea of a former recovery by the plaintif, on the same cause of action. It appears whom he had employed, authorizing and empowering anh J sue, settle, or = ig em other action, as to him might seem proper. The lawyer brought aul United State Court, but settied Ge oetcee a power of attorney to the attorney as Lis share. The plaintiff in the action conteuds that the suit inthe U. 8. Ceurt was brought without the consent of Pequignot, and therefors the proceedings were illegal. Not long ago, a similar case was tried in the District Court, in wh'ch a German Beno Mathes, recovered heavy da- irg Post, May 2.

We have not heard | much about the movement lately, but presume the in- creasing duties of the management have for the time at- tracted their attention to other matters. If the advan- tages claimed by this improvement can be made by a moderate outlay, the interest of the stockholders would be much advanced by its immediate adoption. At the | time it was first introduced, it created quite an excite- rapid depreciation of rails, machinery, cars, &., and of rendering the motion of a train almost exempt from the noise which is now 80 annoying to travrilers. The earnings of the Norwich and Worcester Railroad | Company for April, 1854, amounted to $25,831 80, against $25,365 99 for the same month last year, showing an in- crease of $465 31. ° The carnings of the Woreester and Nashua Raitroad Company for April were $16,662 58, against $14,407 79 in April, 1868, showing an increase of $2,254 79. The New York Central Railroad Company earned $526,020 68 in April, 1854, against $413,407 04 in April, 1853.

Burrall, Wm. W. Boardman, John E. Thayer, John C. Sandford, Wm. A. Booth, Wm. E. Worthen. The New Haven Journal says that the annual reports showed the receipts for last year to be more than $900,000, of which about fifty per cent was net earnings. This amount was, however, ab sorbed in paying interest, extra expenses, &c., 00 that a small balance only remains on hand, and no dividend has veen paid during the year. $250,000 have been paid on account of the Norwalk accident, and $50,000 more is to be paid. In answer to an inquiry, Mr. Schuyler said the Board had not investigated the question of a dividend next August, and he would not say that one would not be declared. It was not generally thought, from the state- ment of affairs, that a dividend ought to be paid before February, 1855. ‘The avnexed statement exhibits the gross earnings of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company during the month of April, 1854.— BALTIMORE AND Ono RaiLroap.
