City Railroad.

The committees representing the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad and the Corporation Of
Washington, in relation to the application Of
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad to construct a
railway through the city, had a conference on
Monday last. We learn the Baltimore COM
mitfee propose to construct a road connecting
the Washington and Alexandria railway with
the Potomac river, from some point along Ma
ryland avenue, probably about Four-and-a-half
street. The object of the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad is to convey the freights from Balt-
more TO Alexandria, which now reaches the
latter place by boats, and also to have water
station on the Potomac. We understand this
conncxion will cost about $4,000. A wharf
and depot win be built Mt the river terminus.
