Resolutions were passed, requesting the corporators to call a meeting of the stockhold- ers at the earliest possible day under the law, for the organization of the company. It was deter- mined to build and stock the road in the best manner, within the time prescribed in 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 ¥ ork, two from Philadelphia, and four from the District of Columbia ; which, it will be con- ceded, is very liberal in view of the fect that the District is largely in the minority as respects the amount of Its subscription to the work The citizens of Washington, whoare so anx- iously looking forward to the completion of this road, will note with satifaction the purpose of the stockholders to push the enterprise forward with energy. ———— «+2008, CONGRESSIONAL. ——_o—_——.

Sotpiers Growine Cavriovs.—The great number of soldiers who have been robbed of their money by the thieves, male and female who have followed them to this city for that very purpose, bas induced some to act prudently and place their money in safe hands. One who bi received a considerable sum a few days ago, mentioned the fact to a friend, and bis fears that it would be stolen from him. His friend carried him to a wealtfy merchant, who at bis request took the money and deposited it in an iron ssfe, giving the soldier a receipt for the amount. An- other, last night, with about eighty dollars In his pocket, finding himself beset by land sharks. went to the Second Ward station, and asked th privilege of remaining there till this morting, which was granted. This caution is ‘commena able. The other day a soldier went to the guardhouse crying, and complained that he entered a house with a considerable amount of money, took a single drink; and was soon in- sensible; and when he recovered he had been thrown out of doors, and his money taken from him. It is to be hoped that the efforts of the Provost Guard to protect soldiers and citizens from the operations of these sharks, may be en- tirely successful.

Nutsancg.—Near the old Paper-mill bridge, on the road from Kalorama to Georgetown, there are two or three slaughter-houses, the stench from which bas become intolerable, and caused com- laints from the residents of hood.
