On Friday night last, r. B. Noble, a
farmer who lives four miles from Grafton,
returned home from Iowa, where he had
been to sell a lot of sheep. Mr.. Noble had
twenty-five hundred dollars in his pocket
all in greenbacks. He arrived in Grafton
at 8 o'clock p. M, and when on his way
home, walking up the Toledo track, he
was attacked by a man who no doubt in
tended to rob him, but Mr.. Noble being
well armed with a revolver, which he fred
twice at him, the man fed.
Mr.. Noble saw no more of this man.
When he arrived home, he retired to his
bed with his wife. At one o'clock Mrs.
Noble awoke in great distress. She was
unable to awaken her husband. The
room was full of chloroform. A Doctor
was sent for at once, and when Mr.. Noble
restored to his senses, he discovered
that his pocket book and the twenty-five
hundred dollars had been taken from un-
der his pillow.

sign in consequence of the passage by the

of the accusations against him was that
he permitted his son, a dissolute young
man, to dispose of offices for his own
benefit, receiving therefor large sums Of
money. The affair has caused not a lit

ssWe are gratifed that a meeting OF the
stockholders Of the Orange 4 Alexandra bail.
road Company is about to be convened--other-
wise q few nersons in Alexandria would soon
come to the conclusion that the whole concern
heloneed exclusively to them. The corpora
tion Of Alexandria owning stock to the amount
of $3.50. OOO-oyer So, 900, 900 being owned by
other parties-recently undertook, in the most
solemn manner possible, to pronounce how the
road should be managed and by whom opera
ted. without bestoWing thought upon the IN
terests of anybody but themselves. This was
nothing but sheer impertinence.
We take occasion, in this connection, to ez-
press the hope that the stockholders, when
they meet, will unanimously re-elect to the
presidency of the road, John S. Barbour, 5r.,
who has been President of the Company tor
the last thirteen years, and had nearly the
whole line constructed under his admlnlstra-
ton. By bis diligence, efficiency and accom-
modating disposition, he has won alike the
confidence of the Company and Of the people
residing on the line of the road from Alexan-
dria to Lynchburg. No better selection OF
President could be made, and we trust 1t may
be the pleasure Of the stockholders to re-nstate
him In a position to which he has been annually
reelected by a unanimous vote Tor the last
thirteen years.
In reply to the above extract; which IS taken
from the Richmond Wing of yesterday, we
inform that paper that if there are In Alex
andria "a few persons who VIII soon come
TO the conclusion that the entire Orange
and Alexandria Railroad belongs exclusively to
them, " these few were elected to the positions
,hev now occupy in March, 1865, when the
whole vote poled in this city was two hundred
and fifty three. MANY.
