RAILROAD STATION AT RIcHLAND.-l hay
ing been reported that there would be no station
on the extension Of the Richmond. Fredericks-
burg and Potomac Railroad to Quantico, be-
tween Brooke's turnout and Chappawamsic
creek, a distance Of about twelve miles, we arc
authorized to state that such report is without
foundation, the company having ordered a sig
nal station and spur track, upon which to place
freight cars, to be provided at Rchland the
farm of Gen. Fitz Lee, about equidistant be-
tween the points above named similar to those
at Woodtord 5, Potomac Run, etc. This will be
of great advantage to the farmers and Others
living between Aqua and Chappawamsic, who
will thus be brought into easy communication
with Alexandria and obviate the necessity of a
round about way of reaching this city, Freder,
ieksburg or Richmond. Should business JUS.
tify it, regular station, including warehouse
etc: will be erected by the company.

A RAIN THEoRY-lf the theory that
early and heavy rains in South Aweric;.
aud .icxico are indicative OF wet season
in California may be relied on as correct,
We may expect an abundance OF rain here
the coming Win er. Private advces from
the interior Of Mexico inform us that up
to the 2lst Of August the rainfall there
had been unusually heavy, SO heavy in
fact, that all fears of failure of crops had
disappeared. Men who have paid consid-
cradle attention to thus theory are conf
dent of its correctness, and several of our
largest farmers are guided by it in PIT ing
in their crops. They say their observa-
tion has proven that when the rainfall in
Mexico (Which is always some two months
in advance Of our rains) is light, drouth
is almost certain here. One farmer in
Santa Clara valley will not seed his ground
unless his Mexican lain advices are salts
factory. One strong evidence Of the cor.
rectn-ss Of the theory is, that drouth
has prevailed 10 Mex. co during the past
two years, in consequence of which great
want of food is felt in many of the interior
sections of that country. We all know
what drouth has prevailed here, here
has been no rain either in Mexico or Cali
fornia for two years. In Mexico the
drouth has now ceased, and an abundance
of rain is falling. We may expect early
Taips and wet winter in alifornia,-San
