By Oiler of tie Board Job. Smith president. the report of the Secretary nud treasurer referred to in the foregoing report varies but slightly in the sums total from that published at the last annual meeting nine month ago Diat meeting having been deferred from the regular time it is not deemed necessary to publish it. Í5y once in a while a hard customer whose sub. Ascription a expired and his paper been stopped tolls us when to comes to renew it that he dont like on paper that lie is suspicious of our polities but a the old Anil the Quot Young ones wont give him any peace and he must take it in self defence. Our verdict is that it serves him just rights his wife and children Are better and More unprejudiced judges on those question than he is and if he follows their advice he will always be right. Now that a a fact the ladies All like in read the Letco motion. And the Young folks wont do without it and that is a Ioor. Unhappy unfriendly family that is not cheered by the weekly Visita of the locomotive. If you want a Happy Home and wife and children that will love Ami appreciate you the first Stop is to take our paper. Ask your neighbor s if this is not so. Ever lie Able to resume the work and construct the Rood. At the time the contract for the construction of the Roar was let to Wilbel oar enter amp co., the firm consisted of messes. Will nil Carpenter of Evansville John i it Ove of Indianapolis awl Peter Latimer of Norwalk Ohio. Messes. Carpenter and love afterwards disposed of part of their interest in the contract to m. Sirs. N. H. Amp e. S. Alford of Hartford it. And took them into the firm of Willard Carpenter it co. When a Call was issued for a special meeting of the Boal to be held on the s8d of March 1858, notice was Given to each of the said persons Beu composing the firm of will nil Carpenter amp co., of the Tontoni plated meeting of the Board and Liat the Boal would then accept a surrender of the Contrael and agree to the i Ancel Bitton of the same and proceed to make a settlement with the contractors for the work done upon just and equitable terms As stipulated in the contract. It was understood at the time of making said Call and giving said notices that the contractor were willing to surrender their contract and Settle and adjust All matters Between them mid the company. At the Merting of the Boal on the 23il of Man a Meir Carpenter a love filed with the company their surrender in writing of the con tract to far As they could surrender it the messes Alford refit cd to surrender and or. Latimer was not heard from. At thu time the contract was Jet Willard Carpenter held five tenth of the interest in the contract John love four tenths and Peter Latimer one tenth and they were the persons with Wixom the company contracted. On the 23d of March. 1858, Cali Enlar and love Neh held three tenths Latimer one tenth Anil the two Alford jointly three tenths. The Boal Are of the opinion that under the circumstances the surrender of messes Carri enter and love was and is a Good surrender of the entire contract. But to obviate All Cavil it was through prudent to serve notice upon the messes Alford that the Board would at its present annual meeting declare the contract forfeited. As the fact exist and have for some time existed an Thori Xing the company to exercise i hat Power reserved in the contract the new Board May take Liat Conree i they deem it necessary. Propositions were made of the Board on the 8d of april. 1858, by or. Alfred Clapp of the City of new York on behalf of himself and not Loci ate to Lake a new contract for tie construction of the entire Roar a cad for the rolling Stock. The Board agreed to accept it with considerable modifications giving air Clapp and i associates time up to this meeting to accept or reject the proposed contract As modified. Since or. Cupp a written that be is making Progress among his associates in raising the funds to take the contract Bat that he will not be ready to close it up by this Day and wishes an Extension of time for accepting the pro position of the Board. He seem sanguine of final Suc Cesa but intimates in his last correspondence that the plan of operation should be changed from i original pro orilion and the proposed modification of it by the Board. No definite conclusion can be come to at present As to what will be the re ult of the negotiation. By direction of the Board suit was brought last fall against Tho City of Evansville for the unpaid 8100,000 of her subscri5ttoti. The cite has made a vigorous defence. Setting up everything Fiat her Able Ami urge unions counsel soul in think of. Or conceive of is a bar to the suit the two terms of the court that have Biassed since the suit in brought have bom used m discussing Anil having derided by the court upon demurrer to the pleadings the Varimbi questions raised by the objections of the cite to the right of the company to maintain the suit. The decisions of the court. Taken All together clearly establish the right of tie company to recover. The principal questions raised and decided in the Progress of tie cause arc these 1. That the air or of the City was authorized by the order of the City Council to make the Suh scrip i Tion that the subscription was Tho subscription of the sky. And not the individual subscription of the mayor i and that it was Legal and constitutional. 2. That Tho contract was not illegal for usury for As the City Bonds were made payable m new York where the Law allow 7 per cent interest tie City might legally contract to Nav 7 per cent on her Bond payable there and Liat the agreement of Tho Zompa 1 or to pay in the Stock of the company 7 per cent Pur annul non tie Stock issued to the City on her subscription until the Road was completed was not interest it simply an agreement to give that Tureh More Stock for the City Montla than the Fuce of the Bonds. 3. Liat though the Sulu Cristion itself under the City Seal did not Estop the City from denying Liat two third of the free holders of tie City Luid petitioned the City Council to make tie subscription Taitl thereby empowered the City Council to make it yet As the record of the cite Council shows that More than two things and nearly five sixth of the citizens had so petitioned and that tie City Council had so adjudged and decided at and Leforc the making of the subscription the City a stopped by Klinl record from denying that the pm or number had petitioned and that he issuing Lvi us Kris Alai a Axiak for june has already been received by Stewart amp Bowen. It is a capital number.

Ere it not for this immense demand outside the City we Koukl now have them at 1 Anil id cents each. Ascription and is bound by it. I Here being some issues of fact to try in the canse it Ivy thought Liat it would be imprudent to try them in the City and the Venne was changed by the company to git Ion county and it is expected that the in Many will obtain a judgment there at the fall of the court. Various suite have been brought against individual subscribers for dues to die company a pm their sub c3?&Quot it will be seen by an advertisement in another column that the Bolling Mill has been turned into n.

The settlers Are organizing into Viand to prevent speculators from entering units on which they have claims. Company have succeeded in almost All Tho cases and have a fair pro Cert of succeeding in the remainder. The Boal very regret Liat subscribers to the Stock of the company have refused to pay their Suu script Unis and thus have compelled the Board to resort to Cograve be Vaures. But being Well rate vied that it was the Plain and imperative duty of the Hoard under the circumstances to use coercive measures they have taken that course.
