PIONEER MILLs-It was mentioned in the
Gazette, few days ago, that, provided release
or rcmttal Of the ground rent and taxes OF the
Pioneer FIGURING Mills could be effected it was
probable that a transfer OF that property would
speedily be made, and operations there be soon
recommended. 1t is now understood that at
the next meeting of the City Council, which
will be held on the nj ght of Tuesday, the 18th
instant, petition will be presented from Mr..
w. H. Newman, of New York, the owner OF
the property, praying for release of the rent
Of the ground on which the buildings are erect
cd, and an abatement Of the taxes. The petit
toner, it is said, states that offers have been
made for the purchase of the mills by parties,
who, provided the petition is granted, will COM
mence running them at an early day. The ad-
vantages to the city accruing from the labor
and money used in the daily manufacture of
eight hundred barrels Of four-the capacity of
the mis--would seem sufficient to induce a "a
vorablc consideration OF Mr. Newman's petit.
ton, and if conditioned upon the continual op-
Grafton OF the mills, might warrant the excmp-
ton it asks.

THE AoUEDUcT BR1DGE.-We have heard
it whispered that the project for bridge across
the aqueduct had failed, owing to the unwill.
ingness of the Alexandria Canal, Railroad, and
Bridge Company to ratify the proposition OF
their president and secretary, pledging Govern
ment bonds as collateral security for the pay
ment of the $25, 900 they proposed to borrow
from the corporation of Georgetown. We also
have it from the same reliable source that the
Bridge Company will proceed at once with the
construction of the bridge, provided the cor
poration will agree to proposition, which, IN
substance, is rather more favorable to George
town than any former proposition. The cor
poration agreed to lend the sum Of $25, 900 for
three years, without interest, which, allowing
that the interest is payable quarterly, would be
equivalent to 4 gift to the company of $4,000.
The Bridge Company now propose, if the cor,
poration will agree to give them bonus OF
s.. 900, to begin the construction of the bridge
at once, the money to be paid over when the
bridge shall be ready for travel They are con-
tident of being able to have it prepared for
crossing by the first Of January. This arrange
ment will require no security, and in case the
bridge is not completed within a reasonable
period, will cost the corporation nothing Its
expected that the above named proposition will
be formally submitted to the Georgetown Coun-
ellis this evening. Nat. Rpub.

THE VALLEY RAILROADS The papers IL
Alexandra and the Valley of Virginia announce
with much satisfaction the progress Of the
Manassas branch of the Orange, Alexandria and
Manassas railroad. This railroad was before
the war an independent railroad extending
from its since famous Manassas junction with
| the Orange and Alexandria railroad, to Stras
burg, Shenandoah county, county adjoining
Frederick county, in which, at Winchester, the
railroad from Harper's Ferry worked by and
in connection with the Baltimore and Ohio
road) terminates, short extension of which
would unite it with the Manassas. Since then
the road has become branch of the Orange
and Alexandria railroad, road which unites
Alexandria and Lynchburg and connects With
the Virginia and Tennessee road, and through
1t with the whole network of Southwestern
railroads. The Manassas branch of the Orange
and Alexandria railroad pursues course some.
what northwestWardly from Manassas juno
ton; crossing the Blue Ridge at Manassas Gap,
and traversing Warren county, and portion OF
Shenandoah, it makes turn almost at right
angles near Strasburg, and thence proceeds
enthusiastically almost through the centre of
the famous Virginia Valley The cars on this
road are now running to Mount Jackson, in
Shenandoah county, and the road is expected
to reach Harrlsonburg. the county seat OF Rock
ingham county, by the first of December.-
This place is twenty-five miles northeast of the
houriShing town of Staunton, the county-seat
of Augusta. The valley region penetrated by
this Improvement is one of the most fertile in
this country. The farming in it has always
been economical and judicious 1t was largely
settled at an early period Of our history by Ger
mans from Pennsylvania, and.by Scotch Irish,
both Industrious and thrifty races The open
ing of the road to Harrisonburg is to DO appro.
priately celebrated by the people of that place,
who have also extended an invitation to citizens
of Alexandria to participate in the festivities
of the day. The Alexandria Gazette anticipates
great commercial advantages from throwing
the bulk Of the trade of so fertile and favored
region into the shipping port of Alexandria, q
city which has naturally very fine harbor, the
river opposite to the town being nearly a mile
in breadth, with a good depth in the ship
channel, which washes the shore.-BaH. SIN.
