STOPPING A TRAIN.—The Cincinnati Inquirer
states that on the evening of the 30th ult. a passen-
ger train on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad was brought
to a stand a few miles from Cumberland, in consequence of
guerillas having removed two of the rails. There were some
200 passengers, none of whom seem to have been seriously
hurt by the sudden stoppage ; but about a hundred guerillas
immediately made their appearance, and relieved them of
some 30,000 dollars in money, besides watches and rings,
not to mention an exchange of hats and overcoats. Some
military officers in the cars were required to surrender. The
train was fired, with the exception of one car left for the
shelter of the ladies, the night being wet. The fire, how-
ever, was soon extinguished, and a train procured from
Cumberland,
