BALTIMORE AND WnEELINc.-We learn
that the application by the city of Wheeling,
for an injunction against the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad Company, for restraining it
from working the Northwestern (Virginia)
Railroad, &c, and which has been for some
time pending in Virginia Court. has been
denled-at least, that in view of the multi
tarious subjects embraced in the bill. the
court declined to act upon il. In addition to
the desire to restrain the Baltimore aud Ohio
Company from working tie Northwestern
Road, the bill asked for an I'M JUNCTION 10
prevent the crossing ofthe Ohio at Benwood,
the paying interest on the bonds oi the North
western Company, the expenditures oimeans
thereon for repairs. &c. Ii any further pro
ceedlngs are taken 10y the city of Wheeling
in the premises. as All aggrieyed st0ckho der
in the Baltimore road, they Will have to be
commenced de noco.- WhecIiay inteiiiyencer.
HUNTER AND WI>r-From the indications
in their respective issues Of Yesterday. it
would appear as ifthe Enquirer and Exami-
ner had set IN ioI II systematic and prolonged
controversy The Enquirer is for "intcrven-
ton for the sake Of protection" while the EX-
aminer is for the Cincinnati platf rIn without
addition or amendment. The Enquirer is in
favor of the nomination of Wise for the Presi-
dency, and the Examiner comes out boldly
and unequivocally, for the first time in favor
of the nomination of Hunter. And here is
the real cause Of the controversy between them
"a controversy, which is destined to be wag-
ed necessarily and vigorously until the meet

Why.
The RICHNoSD MARKETs.--ln one sense OF
the term we may say that all business Is sus-
pended till after 18th of July. Tobacco is
somewhat lower; so is -four. Bacon still goes
up little. The mills are preparing to re-
ceive new wheat, which, doubtless, will be
coming in rapidly after the next fortnight.
In the retail provision market all edibles,
except vegetables aud fruit are very high, and
most of the beef sold there seems strangely
and fearfuliy of the "lean kline" sort, and
tough. -Richmond Eng.
