AND POTOMAC RAILROAD

The yearly meeting of the stockholders Of
the Winchester and Potomac Railroad was
held at Winchester on Saturday last. The
Oh "a ce!aiears were reelected
The grosg revenue for the year ending sep
TENDER 30th, 1854, was sos, 2S4 OF, 244 81
less than that of the year before. The pas
seugcr receipts, however, are $27 800 80,
against S27, $3.50 81 in 1858. The main item
Of dimuuition in the transportation receipts is
furnished by the article of -four; which has
fallen from $50, $50 barrels last year to $685.
700 in the present Of this loss of 81, $50
barrels, Al, 1874 accrued in the deliveries at
tho Winchester depot.
THIS decrease in flour has been almost en-
tirely compensated by augmeatations in other
articles of transport; leaving an actual differ
ence of not above Que hundred dollars be-
tween the freight receipts of the two years.
Thus coal has grown since 1858 from 2,32S
20 1924 tons; iron from S25 to l 902 tons
and guano exhibits a proportionato advance,
The floating debt of the company has been
reduced, during the year, from $23, Q94 So to
$l5,297 So. During the last five years,
"a. 500 have been paid in dividends The
meeting passed a resolution to apply to the
next Legislature for an act authorizing this
company to extend its road so as to connect
with the Manassas Gap Railroad at or near
SiarsJurg.

u The season has arrived for putting up
stoves,and making the necessary preparations
for winter. Great caution should be used
to guard against the destruction of buildings

CENTRAL ONO RAILROAD.

The Wheeling Intelligencer says owe
learn that the first locomotive passed over
the entire track from the Ohio river on Sat
urday, and that after Wednesday train will
run between the Chic river and Columbus.
As the time table and through arrangements
do not yet require greater speed, the time
between Wheeling and Columbus will be q
hours for short time, when it will be re-
duced to about four, making the time from
Wheeling to Cincinnati about s hours.
When full arran gements are perfected, the
time between Baltimore and Cincinnati will
be about twenty-four or five hours, the dis
lance being about 633 miles. This will be
the short line on the time table, and places
Wheeling in a convenient position for par
ticipating in the trade and travel Of the
Union, We loaefli ;.laat festival in honor
of the completion of the road will be held III
