Orr’ arpose into consideration the feaaibility of con- otru @ branch of the A., L.. & H. Raitroad, from some point along the line of ee to Leesburg, running through the southern por- tion of Loudon. As great undertal must have a beginning, we see no valid reason for passitig this one by merely because it pro- poses to do what has never been done before, viz—Plact the people of Loudon in direct communication with the Federal Sh apa affording her citizens additional tacilit for reaching the great center ot commercial activ- SS fps ge to some extent offering them a choice of markets. A stem from the main line, branc! ng off five or six miles this side of Alex- andrif. would in five miles reach the District of Columbia, which, in addition to shortening the, distance for persons traveling eastward, ‘would at the same time obviate the changing of cars, the uncertainty of water communi. cation, and the many other annoyances and delays to which Row subjected. ‘The.construction of such 3 branch, however, ‘would do more. It would make Loudon thi suburbs, ‘were, of Wi n and town, when the fertility of ber soil—t! healthiness of her location—and the hospitality of her people, would attract the man of busi- ness or of pieasure, seeking a country resi- dence for bis family, that would incre: the demand for houses, and thus stimulate the spirit of improvement; it would open the door to a ready market for all that we raise to eell— at reduced ratesof transportation—and thus enhance the value of.our lands, and these things combined, always infuse a business life and energy to & community, that must ulti- mately result in its material prosperity. The subject is already attracting the attention of the people of the District, and the two branches ef the Common Council of Georgetown have united in appointing delegates to the meeting on the 23d; it was also determined at the meet- ing of the Board of Direotors of the A., L.& H. railroad, held im this place last week, to ap- point delegates to represent the company in said meeting, to allof whom free passes over the road will be tendered. It is believed by the friends of the branch road, that the last dollar necessary to its construction can be easily raised inthe District, so that instead of retarding the progress of the road westward, it will greatly facilitate the work on the main line. At all events, it is a subject apon which a free interchange of opinion can do no harm, but may result in decided benefits to our peo- ple, and as the meeting of the 23d promises to be one of interest, a general attendance of the citizens of Loudon would be especially grati- fying. Sa ees REORGANIZATION OF TH REPUBLICAN OLUE —A m licans of the Seventh Ward was held last night at Hyeon Hall. F. A. Boswell, Esq., was called to the Char, who stated the call of the meet- ing. 2ud appeinted Dr Wm. Boyd tamporary chairman. J. L. N. Boswell was chosen secre- tary.

VENTH WARD of the Repub. RaR0ad DELEGATION. — The following parties—the male members ct whom were del- egates to the general railroad convention re- cently in seesion at Niagara Falls—arrived here ‘this morning, and are stopping at the Metropolitan Hotel: A.A.

The delegates this morning visited the Pres- ident and various localities and buildings of public interest, after which they returned to the Metropolitan, where a special dinner was rovided for them. They will leave Wash- Ington on their retarn trip South this after- noon by the Orange and Alexandria railroad —— es . A Live Busrxess Man.—Among the things necessary to make a successful business man. three of the most essential are enterprise, fair dealing, and low prices. It is these requisit added to @ quick comprenension of the re- quirements of the public, and business tact to supply their wants, which bave made George C. Henning prosperous. He has gradually built up a flourishing trade, and is now doing At bis establishment, No. 5¢5 Seventh street, a yery heavy business, as evidenced by the crowds which are generally in attendance at his store. From bis new advertisement tn our paper to-day, it will be seen that he has in- creesed bis stock by # large supply of fail and winter clothing for men and boys, which it ‘will be seen he is offering for sale at prices al- most as low as those which prevailed in the bard-money times before the war. There is certainly po reason why any one should be ebabbily, or uncemfortably clothed, when they can bave neat, substantia’, fashionably cut, and well-made suits, manufactured of the best goods, for about the same amount as the material would cost them at most of the retail stores. oe Tas Hich Tent oy RECHABITES.—This body which convened on the 8th instant, at Barr’s Hall, adjourned last evening to meet on the 2d Tuesday of October pext, in Portsmouth, ‘Va.
