PETERSBURG, December 4, 1861.

PETERSBURG, December 4, 1861
Tho meeting of bundholdcrs OF the
sonthside railroad was held again to-day,
pursuant to adjournment yesterday, but
the number was still too smali to justify
any action committing the whole body. A
further adjournment was therefore re-
solved on.
The annual meeting Of the stockholders
of the Southside Railroad Company TOOK
place to.day in the Council chamber. The
report Of President Malone on behalf OF
the Board of Directors is an interesting
document, and contains many passages l
would like to quote. A brief reference,
however, to some of the most important
points is all that time and space will per-
init.
The financial condition of the road of
course claims the first notice. In round
numbers the funded debt, iDcliNing the
CITY Point branch, is o little over mil
lion and half of dollars, the interest on
which, say to the 1st of July, 1868, will be
s226, OPS. If this is added to the principal
sum, it would make the entire funded debt,
as of that date, $l,Sl6,925; OF which, how
ever, the company yet holds unlssued
S632, 900 OF first mortgage bonds, obtained
by transfer, as provided by act of Assem-
Div. 1t is proposed, with the consent of
the bondholders, to form one mortgage OF
1000, 900, the bonds of which to be made
payable at intervals, and at such dates III
the future as would afford the company
the opportunity Of acquiring the power
and accommodating the means Tor maintain
ing the integrity of those issues, without
any fear of default, while the company
would be placed in possession OF the means
of adding value and permanent lilo to the
property.
The years operations are given in de-
tail, which scarcely admit of analysis. A
great deal Of work has been done on the
road, and the expenses nave been heavy,
but the receipts show balance on hand of
$S,25l.l2.
AT the meeting to-day General Malone
was unanimously reelected president, and
r. D. McIlwaine and Joseph +. Venahle
directors on the part Of the stockholders.
A resolution, offered by Mr.. Wallace,
was adopted, plcdging the company to
urge and further in every way the prompt
and speedy completion Of the Virginia and
Kentucky railroad.
On motion of Colonel Boiling, COM
mittee was appointed to confer with like
committees from the Norfolk and Peters
burg and Virginia and Tennessee roads,
for the consolidation, or more perfect
plan of associated management of this
road with the same, and that said commit
tee be instructed to report to the stock
holders of this company at the earliest
practicable period.
At halGpast the meeting adjourned till
o'clock. ,.

A New MISUNDERSTANDING the many
enterprises recently commenced III our
prosperous city we notice with gr3tiiica-
lion that OF MessrS. J. j. Bowen & Co.
This entcrpriSing firm lave leased Il portion
Of the workshops a. the State prison, and
hired the services Of sUmo iiftccn or twenty
OF the c0nviCtS lo- the purpose ~ mauui;ic-
turing bedsteads on la.Se scale. Undcr
the supervision Of Mr.. Anderson, an Eng
lsn artisan Of large experience and much
mechanical skill, the convicts already
'eyince marked familiarity with the Dcw
aud improved machinery introduced, and
the establishment is how turning out some
twenty hedsteads per day. This number
may be Increased to an almost indennlte
extent. Such specimens as We have seen
compare most lavorabiy in all respects
with any We have seen from the North.
They are all supplied with the popular
"patent joints" which are manufactured
at the Sloat foundry, in this city.
Heretofore Messrs. Bowen x Co. have
purchase nearly all their lumber, chiefly
maple and walnut, from dealers in this
city; but in order to obviate all difficulty
in this respect they have succeeded in
purchasing extensive timber lands near
the ChickahomDy, and erected a large
saw mill contiguous to the York River
railroad. With such facilities, their lum-
Der supplies viii be ample for many years
To come.
The bedSteads manufactured by Mcssrs.
Bowen s. Co. are equal in all respects to
those brought to Richmond from the
North, and are furnished at prices quite
as low, to say nothing Of the saving in
freight. We trust, therefore, that the en-
terprise will receive that liberal encou-
ragement which it olninently deserves.

LOCAL MATTERS.

ATTEMPTED ROBBERY IN CHESTERFIELD
Two OF THE RoHBERS WoUNDED-oNE OF
THEN SEvERELY.-O On Tuesday night three
men attempted to rob the store of Mr.. P.
A Chalklcy, at the Halfway station on
the Richmond and Petersburg railroad,
Int their purpose was frustrated by the
coolncss and bravery of Mr.. Alfred Carey,
salesman in the store, who shot two of
tbem-one q white man, possibly fatally,
and a negro, who, with third man, also a
negro, made his escape. The clrcum-
stances were rs follows:
A white man came TO the store about
O'Clock and requested that. the train be
stopped. This was done when it arrived,
and the man got on; but the conductor
states that he jumped oil before he could
pass through the cars 10 collect his fare.
Soon aftcrward this man returned to the
store and informed young Carey that the
conductor had put him off, and he begged
for light to look for his pockct-book,
which he said he had dropped. The light
was given him, aud he went out with It,
but did not return. About II o'clock at
night a negro knocked at the door, and
stated that he had very sick child and
wanted some pavcgoric for it, protesting to
live some four miles distant.
Young Carey was entirely. alone; but he
opened the door, and the negro came IN.
After reccvingt the medicine be paused a
moment, and second negro came in. lie
in turn was followed by the white man who
had visited the store twice already. Ga
rev felt somewhat suspicious at this. He
was seated on his bed, aud requested the
uo Late lnn nf the
negroes rushed upon him, seized him BY
the throat and threw on the bed but fall
ing near the pillow he was enabled to reach
his hand around it and get his pistol from
under it. TIE white man threw a rock at
him lust before he shot-Garey having
succeeded in freeing his arm and firing
upon him. The explosion OF the pistol
disconnected the negro, who released his
hold upon Garey's throat and rccedcd a
few steps; bat before he could seize him
again he received q shot from the pistol,
which fcllcd him. He got up Immediately,
and with thelother negro fled. He is be-
lieved to be wounded somewhere about
the head.
The white man, who is now in the county
Jail, and may die, appears to be about
twenty to twcnty-four years OF age; is
Slight built; has light hair, inclined to
curl, but black-dycd moustache. He says
his name is James Jennings, ard that he
is from York county. He was shot in the
abdomen. His purpose in his first two
visits to the store he confeSSeS was to have
killed young Carey previous to robhing
the store, but his heart failed him.
Steps have been taken to arrest the
negroes.
Great credit is justly awarded TO young
Carey, who is not yet twenty-one, for his
seIr-possession and bravery in his perlous
situation. A brave department under such
circumstances adds to the peril Of the rob
her class and increases The security of the
community.
