MONDAY MOKKINO.MARCH 14 - Br CrpBtr StatmcmU . In compliance with what seems to be & general demand from the public, Mr. W. Carpenter submits the following statement of the disposition and condition of the assets of the Straight lane Railroad, as far as he is responsible for them.; He has been ready at all times to make this expose, and has only waited for a call from his fellow-citi-' sens to answer it. It is known to his friends that he has been urgent that a meeting might be held before - which he could gire an account of his stewardship, in order to satisfy public opinion. For the truth of this statement we can refer to many indiriduals by name, with whom he has frequently consulted on the subject, and by whose advice he was guided. The following statement is as full and explicit as he can make it, without the possession of the contractor's books, which hare been carried off by his partners, the Messrs. Alfords, who still conceal them. The firm of Willard Carpenter k Co., composed of W. Carpenter N. R. k E. S. Alford and Capt. Lore, as contractors, received from the Straight Line Railroad the following assets, out of which they were to raise the means to construct the road in part. The contract was, that the company should pay $30,000 per mile for building the road, and the assets were to be taken at par. But the road guaranteed that the bond should sell for at least seventy-five cents on the dollar; in other words, the road was to be $22,500 per mile, taking the assets at seventy-five cents on the dollar. Under this arrangement the contractors re ceived in Evtmsville city bonds...- -.8100,000 Real Estats bonds of (1,000 ach 248,000 ileal estate bonda of 8300 each 90,000 Conveyances of lauds at the stock price.... - 89,000 In eaeb from the Company 25,00 Total.-... 662,000 The above is every dollar of property of anv kind that ever came into the hands of the contractors, as far as is known to Mr. Carpenter. He does not include in the above the Laraasco bonds, aa they were repudiated and made unsaleable, and were never used. The contractor have transferred for good . and sold (generally at the rate of 65 ota. on the dollar) one hundred and thirtythree thousand dollar! of the citT and real estate bonds $133,000 Tbey hare pledged aa collateral security lor -their own notea given to banks and bankeri for loans, one hundred aad aev. only thousand dollars of the same bonda. The were nledeed for about 40 cents on the dollar 170,000 The A I fords have in their hands unacconn ted for to the comnanv er their itartnen, bonda to the amount of. 123,000 Ic the hand of Willard Carpenter in bonds $12,000 Only about 16,000 or 18,000 of the lands have been aold, and these the purchasers . refuse te pay for, on the groand that the company's title is not good. Those not -sold are conveyed in trust to O. H. Smith to aocure him as endorser for W. Carnenter A Co 89,000 The cash received from the comDanx hiUi . i $562,000 The above exhibits the disposition and the condition of all the assets of the road which have been under the control of W Carpenter k Co, or Willard Carpenter. . Out of these assets. Carpenter k Co. have received, in available means, the following, viz: Cash from the company . 25,000 8133.000 of bonds disposed at au averuge of tiö ceuts on the dollar 86.450 Note and cash for lands lB.OtW $12ii,460 The total amount of actual means the firm of .Willard Carpenter k Co. have derived from the assets of the railroad company, sold and transferred by them, is as above stated $1 20,450. The other assets have been used as above stated. A portion of the bonds, pledged as collectual for the notes of the contractors, have been sold by the holders and sacrificed for ten and fifteen cents on the dollar. The bonds of the city being virtually repudiated, and the title to lands on which the real estate bonds were predicated, being iu dispute, the sacrifice of these assets was inevitable, , . Whilo realizing only the small sum of $126,000 from the assets of the company the contractors W. Carpenter k Co. have gone on and completed, according to the re port of the engineers, nine-tentbs of the work on 55 miles of the first division of the road. The expenditures on this work very practical engineer who has been over the road will declare mould not have been less, uuder the most favorable circumstances, than $350,000. The difference between the amouut received from the assets of the company, and the cost of the work nearly all of which has been paid to the. men who did it has been raised upon the private credit of the contractors, and by the individual contributions of Willard Carpenter, de. rived from his privaterreaources and borrowed by him on his private notes from his friends. His individual advances exceed $103,000 and there is a mortgage besides upon his property for $38,000 to secure liabilities incurred by other parties for the railroad. Besides these sums there are outstanding about $170,000 of Willard Carpenter k Co.'s paper; for which he is sued and will be obliged to pay as far as he can. No other person beside himself has yet advanced one dollar to the road, except as a stockholder ; his partners did not advance. No one but himself, as far as he is aware, has performed a day's labor for the road, that has not been paid for. Hs has devoted near four years severe and incessant labor to the road, to the great neglect and injury of his private business, for which he has not received enough to pay his traveling expenses on journeys made for the road. It is a cause of deep regret to him that so many of his fellow-citizens some of whom have suffered severely from the loss should have made so unfortunate an investment. But his own sacrifices are convincing proofs that ; he was sincere in his assurances of the ultimate success of the work origuially took nearly $60,000 in its ;tock ; as contractor be has advanced and

expended of his own money and that of his

friends, which he borrowed, about $140,- : . ' - . ' i ". - 1 000 be allowed niS ; partners iu ; issue i $90.000of the amount still unpaid? At the 1 betrinninsr of this enterprise he was out of debt, and possessed a fortune sufficient to .o;af - nutonnnhlo man TTa tit now borno I I - --r ' I down with liabilities incurred for the road for he owes no other debts and has been obliged to submit to an act of bankruptcy, and place his affairs in another's hands to prevent his property being sacrificed for a fraction of its value. If others have suffered severely from an enterprise in which all en gaged under delusive hopes and prospect he has made wreck, in the decline of life, of his peace of mind his credit and of an ample fortune.. Some of the public papers along the road have stated that his appearance at some of the points on the line had been the occasion of popular excitement, and that he had left by star light to avoid popular violence. There is not one syllable of truth in any of these stories. Mr. Carpenter has been most of the time for several weeks attending to business in the counties where it is said this popular feeling exists. He has never, on any occasion, been more kindly received or hospitably entertained ; he. has not received an insult or an unkind word from any indi vidual be has had no occasion to to leave any place by any other light than that of the broad day, and at Newberry, where it is said he too's French leave, he remained a part of three days and two nights, rind met the kindest, hospitality from its citizens. It is alleged by his detractors, that Mr, Carpenter designs to make an immense for tune out of the wrecks of the Railroad Com pas j. He. begs his fellow-citizens to scru tinize the above statement, which contains a list of every dollar of assets that ever came into bis hands, or those of his part ners, as far as he knows and sqe how it can be possible that he can ever realize from them, even - the amount of his actual ad vances to the road; to say nothing of com pensation for the time, labor, and incidental losses that he has incurred. . i . : No one who will go over the road and ex amine the work actually done, can have any doubt it must have cost at least $350,000 Ouly $126,000 of that sum has ever been realized from the assets of the road. No other person has ever contributed a hundred dollars to pay for the work dorfe, except what has been obtained on the obligations of Willard Carpenter k Co.. There, mast, therefore, have been raised on his credit and means at least the sum of $224,00, to accomplish what has been effected. That amount, at least, is due him from the road. . Would any citizen take an unconditional assign ment of the remaining assets of the road, and pay his cash advances? .- Deducting the $173,000 of assets sold, there are $379,000 of nominal assets, complicated by pledges and liens. The city bonds are repudiated by the city; the title ou which the real esia urcpui ed ; the $74,000 worth of lands unsold, are conveyed to 0.: II. Smith, Esq., to secure him for liabilities, amounting to less than $50,000, and they are suiiject to be sold for these liabilities. In this condition would any . prudent man take the risk, '. and pay 25 ceuts. on the dollar for the whole batch of $379,000. If they were all under Mr. Carpenter's control, und could lie sold for 50 cents on the dollar, lie conld not get the actual amount of his advances and liabilities out of them, to say nothing of the heavy damages and sacrifices he has incur red, amounting to more than $00,000 in in terest and shaves, to raise the money to sus tain the work on the road. w But of this $373,000, there are pledged as collateral and beyond his control, except by redeeming: them at forty cents on the dollar, bonds to the amount of $170,000. His partners have embezzled and withhold from him $123,000 more, and the lands be ing conveyed to Smith, he " f stands to-day under liabilities of $170,000, and with ad vances to the amount of $140,000, with nothing iu his own hands to. compensate himself, except about $12,000 in dishonored bonds. Was there ever a more unwarrant able and malicious suspicion conceived, than that which charges hiin with au attempt to convert that which belongs to the road to his own personal use. All that he now has in his hands, obtained from the road, will not pay the lawyer's fees in the suits Which the road has entailed upon him As contractors, there is due, according to their estimate and construction of the terms of the contract, $650,000; besides, there is due on the coupons of the bonds, $40,000, making the entire indebtedness of the road to the contractors, $690,000. If charged with the entire amount of assets received by them at par, there would be due contractors about $140,000. But they have resigned all hope of payment under the contract; Mr. Carpenter seeks only for a partial remunera tion for the heavy sums of cash that he ha3 actually expended in the work done on the road; work that has been well done, and will endure, and will be converted finally to the advantage of. the public, though he may not reap any of its benefits. It has been said that he hus refused to come to a settlement with the Alfords. - He will make the refutation of this slander the subject of another communication. A bill has passed the Missouri Leg islature to enable the city of iSt. Louis to 1 purchase the Gas Works of thy St. Louis Gas Light Company. A bill has also passed that body to exclude free negroes from the State. " The first section di dares that no slave shall be deemed to be emancipated jn that State, until the person rinancijiating bim shall give bond, with three sureties, that the siave snan leave the Ktate, and never remove to it. A 11 tree negroes who may be residents of the State iu I860 are declared to be slaves, and the Sheriff is authorized to He ( sell them under the provisions of the act.

The chains of the negro are being stretched to their utmost tension. They may snap asunder more suddenly in that State than many are aware" of. - .". Gek. Joseph Lank. The Washington correspondent of the Atlanta American says: Joe Lane, of Oregon Territory, is the man fixed upon to run for President.

This, says the Columbus Ga.) Times would be a strong ticket. . Especially the election of Gen. Lane would we advocate with all the zeal of our humble ability. This old hero is one of the truest men in the country, and, in our judgment, stands con fessedly above all other democrats, as the most suitable tor the nomination, lie re presents ft free State is sound, reliable and brave as Caesar. ' He is the man for the time and combines the elements of strength and success Three cheers for the "Marion of the Mexican war!" " ' J That is the way "they, make great men out of sony of our most ordinary. Hoosiers, down South. Joe, Lane for President! The thing is truly laughable. The Democracy of Virginia, in the hand to hand conflict with thai opposition, in which they find themselves engaged, are forced to repudiate the Administration. The Richmond Enquirer says : "We have yet to see the' first Virginia Democrat who fails utterly to denounce the leading measures of the President's message." It adds that "an endorsement of the President's message would inevitably insure, hia defeat.".-Mr. Letcher has already, howeven endorsed the Administration. The Conven tion which nominated, bim adopted a reso lution pledging the Democracy of Virginia to "rally to the support of the Administra tion." We , may conclude, then, that Mr. Letcher is in a "tight place.''- ' A Movemest to be Imitatep.

The necessary repairs will be commenced immediately. The Terre Haute Express says : A dispatch was received at the office, in this place, on Thursday morning last, from Mr. Williams, informing the office here, that a company of business men along the line of the canal, hud raised $5,000 to be expended at once' in making repairs from liero Aorth.

Positions were laid down in this discussion, which are said to be in dications of the . course to be pursued by parties in the next Presidential campaign. Am American Editor ani an English Princk. The editor of the Utica HeraU, who is travelling in Africa, recently visited the ruins of Carthage, and in a letter to his paper, dated Tunis, January 6, relates the following: , , . " hue I was examining these vast rel ics of the past, my meditations were disturbed by the arrival of the youug Prince Alfred of England, and a lot of rolickinr lieutenants and midshipmen, whose ship was lying at anchor iu the ßay of Tunis. Travel is a great leveller, and I sublimely condescended to treat this beardless sprig of ropalty with just as much respect as it lie hadn't been a mere second son of a Queen, or I an honorary member of John Brown's Tract Fishing Association. As I happened to know a good deal more about the ruins of Carthage than either hia Royal - Highness or any of his companions, I played the part of cicerone for the party. As I may not have occasion to refer to him or his again, I may state that Prince Alfred is quite a pretty boy; small and frail for bis age, which is tmeen, and apparently modest and intelligent. He had lots of questions to ask about America, and said he would like hugely to visit it. Whereupon I appointed myself a committee of one on " Reception of Distinguished strangers, ' and pledged him a salute of thirty guns f out the gallant 4 Forty-fifth, ' besides an enrollment in the ranks of the Walton Fisbiug Club, should he visit u 1 am told by one of his brother officers that he is really popular among his shipmates, and is not disposed to take advantage of his station. The oilier day he called one of the mates: 'an" old fool,-' for which piece of impudence he got a box . on the ear that sent him reeling and blubber ing to his cabin. He complained to his servant, (who is a major of high standing in the army,) but no notice was taken of the matter. , B The Overl&nd Mail to California is not only kept up at an immense expense to the Government, but at great risk of life to those who are engaged iu the enterprise. It passes through a region of wilderness filled with Indian tribes hostile to our Government and ready for foray and massacre." Xothing has been heard of the November mail party. It is thought they were all massacred after passing Little river. Many of these mail parties, it is to be feared, will suffer the same late before an elucient military cordon shall have been established.
