this evening. Colonel Carter, the. Viz
ginia Railroad Commissioner, was present.
The reply Of Baltimore and the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad was received, declining
the proposition OF the; Valley stockholders
for dissolution of the co-partnership. The
reply reflects pointedly on those corpora
tions in the Valley which have not, paid up
their subscriptions, and the Valley proxies
warmly resisted its being spread on the re-
cords as unjust to the people OF the Val
ley. but were outvoted by the Baltimore
and Ohio and Baltimore proxies, and it was
put on: the official record. Thirty days,
however, were, given the Valley proxies 70
prepare and send in an answer, to be also
recorded. Messrs. Dorrnan and Anderson,
OF Rockbridge, and Ransan,' OF staunton,
warmly defended those corporations.
A resolution was offered by Mr.. Ander-
son appointing a committee OF five (who are
not to act without the concurrence OF FOUR,
and to whom was given full power to lease
the road for twenty and not more than
thirty years, at $1,000 per mile per year for
the completed portion, and the same rate
for each additional five miles completed,
the lessees to give good security. The reso-
luton was adopted, and William Keyser
and Henry Duvall, of Baltimore, W. A.
Anderson and j. B. Dorman, Of Rock
bridge, and John Echols, Of Staunton, were
appointed to constitute the committee.
