W. & 0. r. R.-Our people have much rea-
son to congratulate themselves upon the pro-
yress made In the extension westward of the
Washington and Ohio railroad, and much
room for congratuation on the excellent man
agemeut of the portion now 10 operation, aud
its popularity with the farmers and business
men remote from its liue.
The severe discrimination made By the Bal
timore and Ohio road against local trade has
become SO oppressive that the people in many
sections do not feel like submitting to it any
longer, and are looking hopefully to the further
extension of the Washipgton and Ohio road for
relief from its exorbitant rates and charges

writes: "Mosby has declared himself a caudi
date for Congress in the Loudouu District, and
is at present carrying on the canvass in his pc
culiarly active, energetic and da>hing style
Hc does not propose to 90 into convection, but
to fight it out on the Independent line, swoop-
ing down upon his opponents unexpectedly,
and defeating them while detached, after the
most approved style of the military art. The
Colonel has assurances OBJ the warmcst support
from President Grant, and proposes to run 90
his we'll known platform Of placing the Couser-
vative party of Virginia in accord with the Adj
ministration. He anticipates opposition from
the extreme Radicals of his district, but cx-
poets to triumph by handsome majority over
all his antagonists.

The Alexandria Bible Society

To the editor Of the Alexandria Gu=ette:
| was sorry not to be able to attend the meet
ing of our Bible Society. 1t was held at
time which made it impossible Tor NE to be
present The purposes of the Society appeal to
every Chrisian heaft have been life men-
Der of il, aud constant contributor to ii for
more than twenty-five years. Feeling deep
interest in the Society, | have been mortified
at the waste Of its fluids: and rs editor Of the
Southern Churchman have said 50. 1t was
this fact that caused my name to be mentioned
by one of the speakers at the meeting on Thurs
day evening" whose language judging from the
sport in the Gazette, was very Incorporate.
The facts are as follows: During the past year
the Society received IA little over $4,000. 1t
took of this sum 5000 20 pay lis agents; Its
agents spent for incidental, 81 800 more, leaving
only IS 900 to be Appropriated 10 Bible work.
In other words, if any person gave $40 20 tEls
Society, the agents put So IN their pockets
| they spent 81 more Tor their travelling ard
| other expenses aud So only uut Of Tic $50 went
to the cause for which SO bad been contributed.
These facts are printed in the last report. II
any one desires to see the report Mr.. Geo. II.
| Robinson, Mr.. Edmund L. Wilmer, and Mr..
Jas EnwiSle jr.. have copies, aud they viii,
no doubt, take pleasure in showing them. Ii
any person wants TO give so to this Society,
he can, Of course, do 50; do not lDtcud, how
ever to do it until this shameful nrlsappr0prla-
| ton OF tunds Ceases. ID. +. SPRlGG.
