MATTAPoNI AND PAMUNKY NAyI-
CATION COMPANY.-An informal meet
ing of stockholders in this company was
held yesterday evening at the office OF
Thomas Branch & Co., with Mr.. Geo.
b. Stacy in the chair, and Mr.. w. NJ. Cary
as Secretary. "
The meeting was called for the purpose
of hearing from the President, Captain
Pollard, his report Of the condition and
prospects of the country, but their being
no quorum present, the meeting was con-
Quoted in an informal manner, and soon
adjourned to meet again at the same place
at O'Clock this evening, when business of
an important nature to the stockholders
will be transacted. ".
Before adjournment, on motion of Col.
Cunningham, q committee of three was ap-
pointed to draft constitution and bylaws
for the company, consisting of Messrs.
George A. Cunningham, G. A. Wallace.
VIM. d. Pollard and VIM. II. Allison.
A committee consisting of Messrs. Cary,
Slaughter and Myers-was also appointed
to notify each stockholder in the CITY per-
sonally of the meeting this evening.
1t appears that there is deficiency OF
about 81 800 in the amount of subscriptions
necessary for the purposes Of opening nav
igation, and when that amount is raised
as it probably will be at the meeting this
evenlng-the steamer "Clara,n which is
now on the stocks at Kensington Iron
Works, Philadelphia, will very soon begin
her regular trips.
There is some complaint of the back
wardness Of those rural districts which are
most interested in this scheme of naviga-
ton. The total amount subscribed out
side the city of Richmond is but S4,27O-
only 5000 of which has been paid up. The
contract for building the boat was for
$4,000, in addition to which the interior
arrangements will cost 81 900. Forty-fiye
hundred Of this amount has been paid over
to Messrs. Archer Il Bolt, who are build.
ing the steamer.
1T is presumed that the merchants oI
Richmond who have already taken owe,
50 900 of stock and who are largely interest.
ed in the valuable trade which this
steamer will open up TO them, will
promptly make up the trifing deficiency
needful to put the finishing stroke to the
enterprise. INE , 80 ~N1

AN IMPosTER.-A fellow has been
going the rounds of the boading-houses
and hotels in this city for the last two
weeks, laying unlawful hands on such loose
articles of clothing as came within his
reach. At one place he registered himself
as the Mayor of Baltimore. At board
ing-house nearly opposite Ford's Hotel he
was assigned to a room. In the morning
he was non est inrent,tS, taking with him
sheets, pillow cases, towels, and even q
cake of soap from the wash stand. As he
passed out the front door he took fine

Our Coal SUPPLg.--Richmond and
other points in Virginia touched by the
great Western railway outlet, the Chesa-
peake and Ohio railroad, will, we hope, ex-
perience during the present year some of
the real benefits which that nearly COM
pleted enterprise promises to extend to us.
10 it we are to look for future supplies of
coal. The regions through which it passes
are underlayed with the richest coal de-
posits yet discovered on the Atlantic slope.
In his remarks at the immigration meet
ing last night, Gen. Imboden Stated that he
had recently had an interview with Mr..
Huntington, president of the Chesapeake
and Ohio railroad company, who said as
soon as the road was completed from
Greenbrier to this city, he would COM
mence the shipment of coal, which could
be carried at three quarters of a cent a
mile per ton, or seyenty-fiye cents a ton
delivered at tide water, and that aadollai
per ton for mining was a large estimate.

FREE tMARRIAGE.--Nlr. Kincheloe, of
the House, offered resolution this morn
ing, looking to such change in the laws
regulating marriage, as will allow persons
under age to marry, without obtaining the
consent of their parents or guardians.
We have no doubt that this change will
be very popular with the young folks, who
believe old folks are fools, but it will hard
ly meet with the appreciation of parents,
whose experience has taught them that
the wisest and most experienced make
more mistakes in marrying at all, than
they are likely to make in remaining single.
We acqut Mr.. Kincheloe of any selfish
purposes in desiring the law to be changed
because of his own age, but we suspect
there are a couple of friends of his who,
impatient to be united, have asked his eff
forts in their behalf. T. su.......
