BALTIMORE & PoToMAc r. R.-In connec-
ton with the subject Of the proposed Baltimore
and Potomac Railroad, the Baltimore Gazette,
speaking of the lateral branch Of the road to
Washington says: There is another connec-
ton which could, be readily obtained, and
which, although not so Immediately remuner-
ative as q connection with Washington, would
be Of vast Importance. This is a connection
with Alexandria Such a connection would
effect a direct communica ton with the Orange
and Alexandria and the Virginia Central Rail
roads, and as the latter will certainly soon be
pushed forward to its terminus on the Ohio
river, Baltimore would thus not only secure a
second route to the Ohio located widely apart
from the present one, but would have access
by rail to the heart Of Virginia, and to the
richest portions of Tennessee and Kentucky"

ANOTHER STARTLING DEVELOPMENT. =.

. ANOTHER STARTLING DEVELOPMENT. The
Washington Star Of yesterday states that
among the facts brought to light by the blow
ing up of that burglarious concern, the Mer
chants National Bank Of Washington, is that
of surreptitious and fraudulent issue of the
stock of the Alexandria and Washington Rail
road Company,t to the extent of some three hun
dred thousand dollars It is stated that the
president and secretary Of the company signed
the certificates in blank, to be issued legti-
mately by Huyck, the treasurer, and that the
latter filled them up for enormous amounts,
put his own required signature to them, and so
disposed of them as that they could be used
to enable I. P. Bayne & Co., to raise money
on them in New York, where one house is said
to hold one hundred and fifty Thousand dollars
of them, on which they advanced one hundred
thousand dollars. Of course the road is res.
ponsble for every dollar Of this fraudulently
issued stock, as it bears the undisputed sigma
lures Of its president, secretary ard treasurer.

the courts this seems to be one
