occasion to make him say great many
things,-among others the following:

The Baltimore and Ohio Bailroad will soon
be opened all the way to Wheeling, as the
Government are desirOus TO secure the coal
and beef of Western Virginia, and PrOyis-
ions from along the Ohio river. On the
Washington Branch, the business has IN
creased so rapidly as to require the employ
ment Of six hundred extra cars, in addition
to those used belonging to the various rail-
roads running northwnrd, which are now
run over it without dlscharging their car
goes. and reloading at Baltimore. They
have built eight miles of sidings between
Washington and Baltimore, or one mile II
every five. They will not lay double tracA
as has been reported, though the road hai
been graded for it, as the Superintendent
Mr.. W. Prescott Smith, considers reliable
line of telegraph worth more than an e1tf
track. The business is now fifty per cent
larger than it ever was before, exclusive
the Government business.
