Beautiful Star, all twnkling with light,
Out on the night shonc transparent and bright :
Beautiful Rose Bud, all studded with gems,
Bound loving hearts in rich diadems
In moment the Star went out in the night,
Fen the Ro:c-Bu so fragrant disappeared
from the sight!
But the Star took its place in far bright sky
Round it in columns bright cherubs did ifs.
Upon angel pinions the Rose Bud was seen,
Not enc of the white robcd but towards it did
lean
Each harp became silcnt-the name was then

TIE RAILROAD MEETING. The meeting OF
the Stockholders of the Washington and Ohio
Railroad Company, held in this city, yesterday,
was not altogether characterized by that har-
mony and uuasimity which it was Hoped would
have prevailed, and which are so essential 10
the successful prosecution Of The work. The
discussion, too frequently became personal, and
at times the proceedings degeneratedi ut' some
thing like "squabblc, very much to the re-
eret of the friends of the road, both inside and
outside of the meeting. As it was, aporlon OF
the Stockholders, not satisfied with the pro-
cecdipgs, announced their determination to take
no part in the election of Directors, AMI some
even withdrew from the meeting. 1t Is to be
lameuted that any unpleasant feeling was enter
tanned aud exhibited on this occasion, especially
when it was announced that under Virginia
auspices, more vigorous prosecution OF the
work was to be attempted, aud that 10 order to
strengthen The hands of the management, all
the aid, material, aud otherwise, is needed to
carry out their designs. MIR. Mckcuzle, the
President, has been reelected without oppo'
sition, new Board OF Directors chosen, aud II
is hoped that whatever discomfort was m"nl
tested at the meeting will soon be allaycd, anc
that the desire for the welfare of the road vii
be paramount to other considerations, and Ell
able the new Board to fulfill its designs, ant
thus harnouize all conflicting opinions.
