BUSY SCENES PRESENTED FROM THIS PLEASING
PROsPECT-INPROyEMEN BY THE RICH
MOXD AND ALLEGHANY RAILROAD COMPANY.
Looking from the beautiful prospect OF
CANDLES Hill the scene presented is varied
and charming, and one which would de-
light EQUALLY the eye OF the artist with that
OF the more matter Oi.fact student OF ma.
terial progress. The great irou-works OF
the Tredegar Company spreading them
selves along the river.bank, Belle Isle in the
distance, and the bridges spanning the
river like huge threads, not 10 speak Of
many industries industrioUsly pursued, and
within reach OF the eye, on both sides OF the
James, form a tout ensemble at once pleas
ing and indicative OF business that Is to
come in the near future as well as that pre-
sently existing.
The location OF the track and the other
improvements by the Richmond and ALE.
ghany Railroad Company add much TO the
busy scene presented. The company has
nearly finished laying the track which is TO
run along the southern bank OF the canal TO
Byrd street, and from thence on TO Tenth
street, the present location 81 the c0mpany's
freight der6'. A force OF hands has been
engaged for several days past in altering the
trestle OF The Connection Company so as to
give room for the engines TO pass under.
The company also intend TO erect passen-
ger depot on the north side OF the
canal near the foot OF Sixth street, and
some OF the timbefs have already been
placed in position for that purpose. The
dredging. m1chines are also at work lust be-
low the old Armory bridge deepening the
canal for the purpose Of giving the mills
below that point a greater force OF water,
and the dirt therefrom is being dumped
into the basin, which at no distant dav will
he entirely flled in and used for del OF pur-
poses.
AZ the old canal.boat yard all i hustle
and activity. There the company intends
10 erect q rOuGd.hou>e. workshops. and
turn-table. At that point wOI kmen gre en-
gagged with pick and shovel in charging
the space and smoothing over the rough
places. and ere long this once unSightly
hole will be occupied by handsome and sub

It is expected That arrangements will be
closed in day or two by which the Rich

will become controllers OF the Jamcs.Rycr
Canal.Packet Company. The company will

and local traffic beyond The present termi-
nus OF their road that have been much

they can issue through tickets to Lynch

lar schedules.

days, when the blooms sink TO the root,

They bloom best under two 10 three feet OF
water. About the middle Of March is the
season for planting them in this vicinity.

A Hanging at Newgate.
Isl. James' Gazette, London.J

DECEMBER 13.-This morning, to New
gate. to see TWO poor wretches hanged; and
now at evening in no delight with myself
at having done so. An awful sight. and
vet more miserable than awful. From the
moment when passed from the gray, cold
street within the gray. cold walls. all
through from first to last. it was rather rs
if company OF dogs had come together
to hang another dog in close back
ward Something more there was in the
reading of the burial-seryice in the ears OF
the male factors yet alive: and something
more in the tollng Of 81. Sepulchre's bell; (;
but as for the rest, no sign or token was
there Of the terrors or the majesty OF law
nor OF the dignity OF human life, nor OF
the dread responsibility OF eXtInguisbing
IL. A kitten cast 10 drown in a pitcher
is dispatched with as much cere-
mony almost. Here is a narrow stony
court enclosed IN high stone walls,
and barrier across it fencing the
door through which the criminals are
brought, and thereby bright structure Of
wood not unlike loose boX-nOt unlike a
cabman's sheller-but the sides OF 1t only
waist high. This shed is the place Of exc
cution. The murderer is taken within 1t
and hanged from a beam under the shed
roof, he and his executioDers and the wit
nesses OF his death standing all upon
q level, and all in the little space
between the pitiless walls. While |
walled 10 an outer room, dreadful IL was to
see little knot OF workmen scuffie by, be-
forehand, with spades and pickoxes, and
one with bag on his back with lime In II
these to prepare the grave. More terrible
that 10 me than all that followed. Hurriedly,
in sbambllng, furtve, silent way, the two
that were TO die were brought into the court
not very terrified, it seemed-glad perhaps
that there was so soon 10 be an end; one
of them of sinister look, the other and
the greater villain boyish and marked with
the criminality of born fool. When all
was prepared, "Good-bye." they said;
Goodbye" between them and their exc
cuiioner, and then in an instant they dsap-
pcared; for beneath the shed Is a pit. No
more. Much wish j had gone TO see the
Baroness Burdett.Coutts's pretty show Of
flowers and her Hower.brigade OF girls, in

the stoye in the back room OF Galveston
saloon, and somehow or other the subject ol
newspapers came up for discussion. One
man said that editors were more jealous OF

never had good word for each other, &c.

THE MOZART LAST NIGHT-THE OPERA -
Mozart Hall was completely filed for
" opera-nlght" last evening, in spite OF the
heavy rain; and we may fairly say but
few OF the large audience regretted having
braved the inclemency Of the weather. The
whole programme was we'll, indeed pecu-
llarly well, rendered. The music was good
and the acting vigorOus-in some parts even
thrilling. We noticed with particular plea
sure that Mr.. HOtf was able TO sing Wi h even
more than his usual patLos and sweetness,
Notwithstanding the severe cold which we
are sorry 10 learn is now annoying him.
When the sweet notes OF "Abl | Have
sighed to Rest Me-" were heard, there was
decided stir in the audience, clused no
doubt by adectionate memories OF one
lately lost, but not forgotten, with whom
that melody had almost become identified.
The duet between di Luna and LeonOra in
the last act was particularly good in both
music and acting. The trio in the same act
was very pleasantly rendered. Indeed, the
selections from Troyatore were given in
such manner as TO crafty most critical
audience, while the comlcll little bit OF mu-
steal fun from Chrlspino la Comare, which
concluded the programme, was Just what
was needed 10 relieve the tension produced
by the tragic scenes OF Troyatore. We
hope that in future the "waiis" between
the acts will be shortened. Last night they
were YEARLY long.
