LAST NIGHT, Browns Hotel was besieged,
taken and overrun, by the passengers via Orange
and Alexandria Railroad, which failed to connect
with the Northern train. One after another of
Latham's coaches arrived, depositing at the Ia
dies entrance Of the 90 marble palacen their pre-
cious freight, OF manhood, youth, female beauty
trunks band boxes, etc, uhtil there really seemed
a pecessity for having the ladies' entrance of the
hotel temporarily widened for the accommodation
Of the crinolnian influx. Then followed los d
after load of baggage, which was piled upon the
sidewalk until pedestrians were compelled to
take to the paving stones to get past In the ex-
citement attendant upon this crisis, the abilities
Of the veteran porter of the hotel (Wm Slade)
were called into active requisition and he super
intended the transportation Of those small houses
commonly called ladies' travelling trunksl 10 the
rooms allotted to their use. In less than an hour
the street in front Of the hotel resumed its wonted
appearance, End persons who desired to do so
could again pass without Inconvenience. The
Orange and Alexandria Railroad must have re-
ceived an impetus. very recently calling for an
instant increase of passenger and baggage cars for
the accommodation Of the travelling public.

AFTER the dispatch says Culver assigned. Now, in
the name of common sense, what is to be made out

incongruities. Who is this Mr.. Banker Culver? Is
he one that traded in the South some twenty OF
twenty-five years ago? The latest dispatch dated
yesterday from New York says the money market
opens cheerfully, which, we suppose will be followed

money is worth per cent, per month. We SHOULD
like, however, to see something of the $2,500,00t
that the British Bank of North America had ordered
to be shipped monthly. This sum, with what othe
Banks and Bankers might order, would make a fin
| basis in six months. We give no credence to thes
monthly shipments. That gold will come from
