ALEXANDRIA AND WAsHIHGToN RAMwAY.-The
injunction obtained by Major Tochman of Po-
land" TO arrest the construction of this work,
was yesterday dissolved. It is not likely that any
other impeachment win be placed in the way of its
speedy completion. One mile of the track will
be laid next week, and the whole work completed
in September.
The city government on Monday, granted the
company the privilege Of laying down a track from
the Baltimore depot to the Long bridge The
authorities Of Alexandria will probably grant a
similar privilege in that city. Then, on the COM
pletion of the road, passengers be taken up at
the Capitol gate and set down in the centre of AL
eIandria, after a passage of fifteen or twenty
minutes. Excursion parties can also be accomnio-
dated daily over this road; and, by arrangement
with the Alexandria and Orange road, be
transported to Warrenton, Charlottesville, and
Staunton
SECRET Associations Our foreign popula-
ton, and more especially their native sympathi-
zers, pretend to have particular horror to what
they are pleased to term "secret associations"
Now it is well-known to some people that there
exists not only in this but in several other of our
principal cities, a society termed the "Daugh-
tiers Of Milesia,n or Mlesian Daughters" com.
posed of Irish females, who hire out as nurses,
servants, or in other words, helps" and who, by
the rules Of their association are bound TO protect
and succor each other In time of need that lie,
should Que or more of the association be out OF
employment, or have been discharged, and without
the means OF living every individual member ofthe
association Is bound 10 subscribe literally towards
his or her support until such time as their unfor-
tunate brother or sister can be provided for from
the income Of some verdant native, who can appre-
ciate the attention aud care bestowed upon bis
household by an unexceptonabe member of the
"Milesian Daughters" Should any verdant house.
wife, born on the sol suffer an unaccountable d.
minution In the resources of her pantry, don't
blame this secret assocation-of course not.
ASTONISHING MANY readers Of the Or0an and
