TuG ALEXANDRA AND WASHINGTON RAIL
ROAD lMDnnGLiO.-NOtwith that tho
railroad between this city aud Alexandria Is
In the hands Of receivers, and Is likely to re-
main so until the ownership of the road is de-
cldch In the supreme Court Of the United
states, the litigation upon the subject stu
continues. Some time since, Judge Thomas,
OF the State court, gave judgment In favor OF
the right OF the old road (James =. FRENCH to
ownership OF the road but the execution Of
that order was suspended until few DAYS
since, when the sheriff OF Alexandria served 4
writ OF possession upon the lessces and took
nominal possession OF the road bed tsiN miles
long, for Mr.. French's company. The re.
eeiverS, however, paid no attention to Judge
Thomas writ, but continued 10 run their
care as usual: They however filed an applica.
tion with Judge Underwood, setting forth that
an interference had been made with their con-
troll as lessces, and asking the protection OF
the court, and the punishment Of Mr.. French,
and OF the sheriff of Judge Thomas court,
This question is still pending before Judge
Underwood but will be SETTLED by him after
argument, at Alexandria on Monday next
Meanwhile, Mr.. French procured warrants
from an Alexandria magistrate against the
engineer, &c, of the train for runnlng the cars
over his road. These warrants, however, have
not hcen served, and the case remains Ia siaiu
quo until Monday.
