Ington City Ratlroad was held yesterday (four- fifths of the stock being represented), and we are glad to say that the fullest disposition was man!- fested to do full justice to the residents of this District in the construction and manzgement of the road. Resolutions were passed, requesting the corporators to call a meeting of the stockhold- ors at the earliest possible day under the law, for the organization of the company. It was deter- mined to buiid and stock the road inthe best manner, within the time prescribed tu the act granting the franchise, and also to confer upon the resident stockholders a controlling influence in the management of the road, by giving them four directors out of the seven to be chosen. One of the directors will be selected from the city of New York, two from Philadelphia, and four from the District of Columbia; which, it will be con- ceded, is very liberal in view of the fact that the District is largely in the minority as respects the amount of Its subscription to the work The citizens of Washington, who are so onx- fously looking forward to the completion of this road, wiil note with satifzction the purpose of the stockholders to push the enterprise forward with energy BENJAMIN T.
