Virginia Central Railroad.

We have received II copy of the reports of
the President and other officers Of tho Cen
trail Railroad, for the current year, from
which the affairs Of the company appear To
be flourishing.
The gross receipts, which were estimated
last year az 5000, 600 have realized $685.

The entire cost of the road in use. with
equipments &c.,-l7s miles, is s., &c., &c.
80, on which the nett revenue of this year is
more than ! per cent. The present total debt
of the company consists of 81 ,4S8, 346 90 fun

can be extinsuished By the time it becomes
due, BY the accommodations of a sinking fund.-
without interfering with the future payment
of dividends, according to present calcula-
tons.
The road has not been extended since the
last report, and it is supposed that the stock
holders will be unwilling to appropriate the
nett revenues of the road for that purpose, at
least until the State work is completed from
Covington to the White Sulphur Springs; un.
less the Legislature will furnish aid TO the
Central, as it has done to the other railroads

holders Of the Orange and Alexandria Rail
road Company, held in Alexandria, and
mentions the labor and exertions of the

presses the opinion that editors of newspa-

late great guile on the English coast, and how
the Great Eastern rode it out at liolyhead.
Though brief, the gale was one Of terrific
violence. A large part of the breakwater
works at Holyhead have been destroyed. and
vessels anchored far inside, and sheltered,
compared to where the big ship lay, have
either gone down bodily, or been driven
high and dry ashore. For one hour or so,
the Great Eastern herself was as near des-
truction as she is ever likely to be, aud moth
ing but the unceasing vigilance and long ex-
perience Of Capt. Harrison, and the officers
under him, could have saved the vessel from
driving ashore with the others.
