Gur attention has been attracted of late to the rapid at vance in the stock of tbe Baltimore and Obio Railroad Company, especially a it has occurred at a time when al) sccuritios—and particularly of this class—have suffored materially in public estimation. We were at a lors to sccount for this marked exception in our railroad list, un Ul, upon cenferring with well informed parties, we were mace acquainted with a plan which, for boldness of cou ception and for a steadiners of purpose in carrying It out in all its phases, execede any effort of the kind it hae beon our duty to ebroniele, In the year 1852 thie company found its final in such @ condition as 1» compel thy huspension of dividends, which, it ta fair to concede, were ever earned prior w this date. During this suspension the steck has born variously valued in the Baltimore market, selling, we believe, as iow as thirty-five per cent, and as high ss eighty ; bat it was sooa destinec to take fis piace among the unproductive rail road cnterprites of the day, when this bold schome ‘Was Iptroduced to some of the moveyed men of Baltimore, and then followed this extraordinasy resurrection, To say that the Baltimore and (io Raiiroa! is not one of the #reat onterprines of the day isto say what is not tr To say that the projection of it and ite faa! completion aruinst the mont trying obstacles does not reflect great credit upon |'s sanagert, i# to withhold jast praise, Te ay that ite business has not largely increased upon ite ex ension to the Ohio river is to ay what the immense Dosipess upon lines tapping the same vast and thriving territory, does pot werrant usin saying. But to say that this coacern has, within six or eight month: emerged from its acknowledged embarrassment into +uch @ state of prosperity as to warrant tho payment of two cash dividends of three per cent each, anda farther dividend of thirty per cent, heretofore tald to de earned, but absorbed by construction account, is to eay what we have wot the credulity to swallow, and what we should deny, (if for po more substantial reason) fram the stadi 1 but transpareni efforts of certain stockholders, as dis. cloned in the report of the directors and the proocedings thereor, published in the Raltimore papers of last woek. If the declaration of this 30 per cont dividend were a matter of such manifest justice to the stockholders, why has the language of the former presidents of the compa- ny been eo conepieucusly spread out im the discuasion 0! the stockboiders as a warrant for their prosesdings’ Terms employed to meet the exigencies of the oscasion, to sustain the drooping energies of the friends of the concern: and to save it from utter abandonment. It is the device of men who Geliberately set about the perpetration of « rom wrong—we ray deliberately, not doubtful of their own aote but fearful of their effect upon the public to whom they are reeponsibie. [et us ovasider the circum. stances under which tho resolution recommending the di- vision of the net carnings wae passed: Mr. Barnes, a city director, opene with @ proposition instructing the Board of Directors to make early provision for the recognition and payment of the not balance of profi exhibited in the accounts of the company. Ile is followed by Mr. James Donnel), who is frightened out of his coasistncy by the possible tax of the State of Virgioia, when the company’s ¢ividends ehall esscod #'x per cent, and he arges the division to preclude the possi- bility of @ diviaend to exceed six por cent for all time to come, Whata subterfuge, Mr. John W. Garrett agues very heartily on the objrct, but not the terms, of the re. solution of the city director, and proposes the follow. we Resolved, As ® sense of the coon stock bolders of the Baltimore and Ratiroad Com, a tha’ the Board of Directors are hereby ¢irected to e provisic or the payment by dividend, in bend, or other wiee, of the net vided balance of exhibited b; Se ene te Se such to. be made A on early @ period. sa sald Board of Directors may deem judicious. Mr. Garrett prefers thie language because of the recog nition of « principle, which he sets out by saying was never disputed, and because it refers the matter to the jo‘gmoent of the Rosrd of Mireotora, rather thea tt | immediate consummation as Mr. Barnes’ resolution contemplates, Mr. Garrett, with a commendable show of honesty, deprecates the appropriation of money to the stockholders, ‘‘ a8 ong as doubt hangs in the horizon as to the value of the assets which appear in the baisnce sheet of the company,” but with much complaisance submits to a substitute submitted by Mr. Donnell, which fixes the date of this division on or betore the Ist day of April next, which means to-morrow, or any other day between this aud the firat day of april next, thas may suit the purposes of certain stockholders who themselves the Directors recommend to the Directors such course as shall meet their common object. It is in this view that Mr. Garrett is eloquent about the harmony that pre vails. It is in this view that Mr, Barnes is not tenacious of what form the meoting gives its decision, It is in this view that Mr. Garrett withdraws his resolutions, and gracefully accepts Mr. Donnell’s, which answers bis pur- Pee better, It is in this view that the old Board, them- selves the tstigators of an unparaileled fraud upon the rights of the bondholders and the best interests of the road, the controliers of the stock, clect themselves for another year, and that unanimously, Without admitting for an instant the expediency or honesty, under any circamstances, of making a dividend Buch as is contemplated, the facts connected with th increase of business, ag statec in the last three years, do ot warrant the belief, that a prosperous future ties before tbe company. The road is located beyond Cumberland through a wild and unproductive country. The loca! trailic ia a mere bagatelle, so that the immense increase, in three years as stated, is the through traitic, consequent upon the extension of the road to Wheeling. Now iti geverally conceded that our connecting lines with the West must for profit depend upon their local trade, until the through trade shall become so large as to destroy the active competition that now exists; and we venture the assertion that it i@ upon this assumption that the heavy increase of receipts upon our great through lines of railway have produced no impression upon the market value of their stock. Of all our great lines, the local traftic of the Baltimore and Ohio is the most meagre. Besides this, great addition to their trade has been done over @ new line of road, with new equipments, with heavier grades than any other main line of road in the United States; and to assume that the cost at which a three years trade has been done is ascertained by strik- ing @ balance between receipts and ordinary expenses, is simply absurd. There are very few roads, if any, in tae country that have not commenced to declare dividends under a faizo idea of the'r expenses. How many, under this procees of deception, have gone on accumulating debt until they were overwhelmed, the long list of non- dividend pay ing lines ton plainly tells. With these circum. stapces before them, the Board of Directors of the Balti- more and Ohio road was not justified in resuming cath dividends, much less in recommending the divisicn of a sum whereby the bonded debt of the company would be increased over three millions of dollars, mani- feetly to the detriment of all other interests, save to the stockholders of the day, who, before the con- summation of thie mopstrous outrage, will bave parted with their stock, pocketed their protits, and left the con- ding public to stagger on with an accamulated load. But the resumption of cash dividends was indispensa- ble to the accompliehment of the objecta of these model directpra, They coula not, until they had resumed divi- deuds—and in this way conveyed the ‘dea of opening prosperity—suggert the dividerd of net earning, the moving lever of the whole scheme. Now we do tay, that if the affaire of the company were in euch condition se to justity @ return, in some shaps, to the old parties #bo sustained this great work in its long struggle for ex: istence, we should rejoice to see it done; but, that new apd reckless men, shall, for speculative purp3ses, with wuch unbecoming haste impart new life to this concern, that they may the better rob it of its last clomont of vi- julity end then throw the dead carcase upon the commu. nity, we enter our solemn protest, The Trearurer of the Commonwealth of Virginia has submisted the followiog synopsis of the financial opera- tions of bis department for the fiscal year ending Sth September, 1£56:— ‘The aggregate dalance in treasury on the morning of the first day of October, 1865, aa per last anqual snep, “io credit of the are Commonwealth Literary fund..
