THE CHEsApEAKE AND Ono RAILS
ROAD CASE "A Richmond (Va.) letter
says the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad
case assumed new phase Oh Monday,
and the filing of a petition by the Hon.
James Lyons, trustee for the Virginia
holders Of bonds, in million loan to
the Virginia Central railroad in 1851,
the latter road being aferward merged
into the former This petition prays
that these bondhoders be made par
ties to the suit now instituted, in order
to protect their interests, which, they
claim, are paramount to all others, as
the one million loan to the Virginia
Central is first lien. This petition
was signed and was to be served on
the receiver and the counsel of the first
mortgage bondholders yesterday. On
the other hand the latter deny that the
bonds issued by the Virginia Central
railroad are superior or prior lien to
their own, and they further state that
the first mortgage bonds which their
clients hold distinctly conters upon
them first paramount and absolute
lien on the property Of the entire Ches
apeake and Ohio road. From present
indications there will be endless litiga>
ton, either for actual or technical
grounds, which will postpone any fore
closure sale to an indefinite period.
Meanwhile it is feared the meagre res
ceipts eff the road will be swallowed up
in legal proceedings. On Monday the
receiver inspected the Office, works
shops, the wharves on the James river,
and all other buildings belonging to
the company. He also opened bank
account, set corps of clerks to work
on the accounts of the road, and wound
up the days work by engaging local
associate counsel.
The New York Express saws: "Much
indignation was expressed Monday by
the Chesapeake and Ohio bondholders
against the sudden an unexpected ap~
pointment of receiver by Justice Bond
without any consultation with the
counsel for the great bulk of the bond
holders and creditors"
At a meeting of the Chamber OF
Commerce of Richmond on Friday
last, the day before the Chesapeake and
Ohio road was placed in the hands of a
rcceiver,) a committee reported that
after a full examination they had come
to the conclusion that, that road could
be made the most useful by completing
the connecting link from Huntington.

hands were gazing eagerly ahead to the
southwark, but Cd reaching Rouquette
Island the officers and men saw the
edge of the solid pack of ice, which
stretched across the strait from side to

1t was this same pack of ice that

In addition to this, either II primary

avoidably breed more or less bad blood

short to enable men to get over the
soreness of defeat and recognize the
claims Of their party, so that the party
would go into the fight divided aud
demoralized, and would be as likely to
be defeated as with .all three of the
