The bill allowing railroad and canal compa-
MES to purchase land along their lines came
up in the Virginia House of Delegates, Satur-
day, when Nh. Powell's amendment requiring
all roads accepting the provisions of the act to
surrender their exemption from taxation was
adopted. after. which the whole subject was
laid on the table by a large majority. The
Richmond Enquirer, says: The Orange and
Alexandria Railroad Company had a similar
bill passed some years ago, and while the road
has made no money by the operation, its pur.
chases of lands have enabled private parties 10
liquidate $3.50, 900 of their indebtedness.
