cAPTToL-soUARE LABOR.
The bill making an appropriation TO en-
ploy honest labor on the Capitol Square
and TO do away with convict labor thereon
came up on its passage.
Mr.. Kent said he could not see how the
State could save money by keeping the
Capitol Square in order by paid labor in
stead Of working the convicts thereon. lie
thought some mistake had been made in
the statement that this bill was necessary
because it would be an economy to the
State.
MIR. Curtis argued to show how tho
money would be saved by hiring the con-
victs out and employing other labor TO
work on the Square. He asked that this
measure be passed, as 1t would not only
save money to the State, but would re-
move from our midst disgrace to tho city
and State.
Mr.. Hay moved that the bill be referred
TO the Finance Committee. Mr.. Curtis
said ne was willing and the paper was re-
ferred.

THE CHESAPEAKE AND OHIO NORTHERN ROUTE.
When the bin to incorporate the PotO-
mac and Piedmont railroad which Is IN
tended as a route to the North TOR the
Chesapeake and Ohio railway, came up on
its passage Mr. Rowe, of Fredericksburg,
moved TO recOmmit the measure To the
Committee on Roads. He did this, he SAID,
because the people of his town desire TO
send representatives before the committee
TO show that It wOuld be wise to have the
road pass through Fredericksburg or TO
make that city theterminus.
Mr. Hay, of Madison. opposed this refer
ence. He had heard that the road as at
present contemplated will PAYS through
his county, and it will open up, he de-
clared, one Of the finest sections IN the
State. He urged the immediate adoption
of the measure.
Mr.. Hudgiu, of Caroline, made quite an
able speech in favor of MIR Rowe's motion.
He was no enemy. he said. to railroads,
and was not opposing the granting OF the
charter. but he wanted to give the clti-
zens of old Fredericksburg q fair SHOW
ing. 1t was but few years ago,
he declared. when that old city was boom
inc. but her industries have been crippled
nv railroads passing her by, some of tnem
beng almost near enough for the whistle
of the locomotives to be heard. II this
road should start from GordonsVuie ana
pass through Fredericksburg, tne spedAct
said. he had learned that the citizens OF
that CITY would contribute literally to
build the line. Mr.. Hudgin closed with an
oloouent plea for the citizens OF patriotic
Fredericksburg.
Mr.. Mason. of King George, also spoke IN
behalf of Mr.. Rowe's motion and urge ,Hrgsed
that the people of battle-scarred trede-
be given hearing.
The subject provoked lengthy discus
sion. d. &c
Loudoun, Saunders of Franklin. and Gard
well all opposed the motion OF MI. Rove
on the ground that if this privilege was ac-
corded Fredericksburg any other city or
town could ask the same and IT would cause se
a war between the sections in order 10 get
tbe line through their respective sections;
MIR. Rowe's motion was lost ana the OIL
was passed.
