erection Ola statue Of Justice Marshall in
one of the public squares of Washington,

TRIAL OF A NEW ENGINE.,A new ten
wheel freight engine built entirely at the
shops ofthe Virginia Midland Railway de-
pol.in this city, made trial trip on the
road. this morning, and worked to the entire
satisfaction OF all interested. The engine,
is one Of the largest on the road, and
is equal to any made in the North. The fact
that such an engine can be turned out ofthe
Virginia Midland Railway shops, reflects
credit upon the mechanics Of Alexandria,
and especially those in the employ Of the
Railway Company. Why could not locomo-
Tive works be established in this city? En-
glncs are frequently passing through here
from the North for Southern roads.
