game went to the Carlton team by twelve

Prospectives by but three pins. ! the
deciding game the Cartons were beaten
all the way and were overwhelmed.
The Hours won the first game of the
second series from the Prospeetives in a

Plymouths have been looking for a couple

Richmond, Va, March 13.-Widey
published statements to the effect that
work could not be begun on the F'edc-
raj building ut Newport News. for
which an appropriation was made by
the last Congress. owing to the site not
having been ceded by the State Legis-
lature. arc Incorrect.
The Legislature of 1SS3-'Si passed an
act ccdins to the general Government
one acre of land in Newport News. or
SO much as may be necessary for the
purpose of erecting 4 public building
thereon. The act was approved April
il, 1854.
There was n general impression that
the General Assembly had not taken
any action in the matter, but Governor
Tyler thought otherwise and Il diligent
search Of the rolls by Colonel John
Bell Bigger clerk Of the House Of Del
ego;es ana Keeper of the Rolls proved
that His IXcellepcy was correct 4 GER
titled COPY of the act was sent to Sec
rotary Gage, Of The Treasury Depart
mcnt. today. The latter had written
the Governor notifying him OF the APP
preparation made. and. asking if the
Legislature had made the necessary
ccsson. Work will probably be begun
OH the new building in Il short time.
MAY RE-ENTER THE SERVICE.
Governor Tyler is about ready to per
nit military companies which desire to
do SO to rc-cntcr the service of the
State, they having been DISCHARGED
when they entered the Federal SER

A Reasonable Request.

Considerable dissatisfaction is ex-
pressed with the last change of the
railroad schedule.
Train No. II on the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad was refrigerated about
one hour 50 Us to reach Cumberland at
about $50, or exactly the time when
the Cumberland and Pennsylvania
No. | leaves.
AS trains generally leave more
punctually than they arrive, in vast
majority of cases No. will be out of
Cumberland before No. Il comes in
sight.
But should the latter be "on time, -
there is no margin between $3.50 in the
one case and $50 in the other for
transfer of mails.
In consequence, the railroads, to
save few minutes to promote their
own convenience, practically take an
average OF hours from the satiStac-
ton and pleasure of their Georges
Creek patrons.
These latter, therefore, aggregatiug
Il population of about % 600. ask for
change that will bring No. II in at
least ID minutes earlier, or defer th.
leavlng-tlme of No, | at least Is
minutes later.
