It was desirable that the del- ezaiicns of the two cities sbouldactin harmony. | li was unfortunate that Washington and Georgetown. separated cnly bya creel, should be two distinct corporations, their interesis being identical. In 1560 the proposition was mace by Georgetown to unit? the two cities, but it fell through on one point, and that not projee The two cities should be one in name a#siniact.

There was apother question o be met. Mr. Ricbard 8. Cox wished a branch of this road to Aldie. He did not believe that the Loudoun road would consent to make th branch, and 1t was a question for us to con- sider whether it will pay 03 to subscribe to make that connection. The Loudoun and Hampshire road is now complete from Alex- aneria to Leesburg: is under contract for 12 miles further, and it is proposed to extend it Piedmont to the coal fields. Mr. H. B. Sweeney said he would inquire ifthe Lcudon road had the right under her charter, without further legislation, to make ibis braneh Mr. Tenney answered affirma‘ively. Mr. Sweeney thought the best point of cross- ing would be at Great Falls. ‘This would aid ington.

Mr. Tenney said that Maryland would be | Much better accommodated if the read crossed at Great Falls, but probably there would be objection on accoun’ of the increased expend. ture. It would cost much more to construct the road ria Great Falls than it would by the nearest connection with Georgetown, which was about four miles. The language cf the President of the road in bis offer was to make the connection “at the nearest available point.” he thought they should not now undertake to settle the point of connection, but come to some understanding as to the amount ot their sub- scription. Georgetown, he would guarantee, would raise more than ber tenth part. If suffi- cient money was raised he thought there would be no objection to crossing at Great Falls. Mr. Thorn called attention to the fact that the Loudon road now discriminated against Washington by refusing to allow cars to con- nect with the Washington and Alexandria road, but forcing all to go to Alexandria. Mr. Tenney said the point must be settled that no discrimination should be made against the District, as was the case with the Balti- More and Ohio railroad. Mr. Kidwell said that some months ago he hud conferred with the Engineer of the Wash- ington Aqueduct upon the feasibility of using tbe Aqueduct roaa for a track for the railroad to Great Fails, and he was of opinion that there would be nodifficulty, except perhaps, in the interfering with the use of the manholes on the Aqueduct. Mr. Randolph Coyle here expressed the opinion that it would be utterly impracticable to use the Aqueduct road for railroad purposes unlees the tunnels were greatly enlarged, and the radins of the curves much widened Mr. Kidwell said that Mr. Evart,had m: a survey for a crossing at the “Three Sisters.” Mr. Coyle said that it was within his knowl. edge that Mr. Charles Manning, the former Engineer en the Loudon road, had favored the the crossing at the “Three Sisters.” Mr. Kidwell, in answer to a question,said he belieyed that the railroad connection trom Great Falls to Drainesville wovld be about four miles, and that the direct connection from Georgetown wiih the railroad at the nearest point, would be about four miles. Mr. Coyle asked if, by their charter, the com. pany bad power to discriminate in tolls be- tween different points. Mr. Kidwell said tnat Mr. McKenzie had told bim they were ready to make the connec- uop, without any discrimination in any way wha'ever. By ‘charter, the company was privilezed to muke connections ten miles from the road. If Washington and (Georgetown make @ subscription, this branch becomes a part of the Loudoun and Hampshire road; ana it would ® question worth looking into, whether the branch would not be liable for Any mortgage bonds on the main stem, and whether the branch could be saved from being subject to mortgage Mr. Elvans suggested that the bonds would cover theentire road-bed. ‘Mr. Merrick said they might have some diffi- culty with mortgage bonds, as they are made to cover all tue road-beds and rolling stock. ‘The Supreme Court of the United States bas decided that mortgage bonds are valid liens upon all branches made. and all subsequenti' acquized roiling stock. The liens would a! to the branch the moment it was consiructed, and they could only be got rid of by atranging with the bondholders to release the liens on tbat particular branch. Mr. Teuney thought they could safely risk whe len question. The main point to guard against was discrimination, especially'as the controlling power woald not be in our hands. Mr. Mermck said if ower exists in the railroad ci tion te regulate dgmen:. ‘The only way wan td exercise their ju ‘he only way wonld be to make a contract with them: the subscrip- tion being dependent upon a guarantee against discrimination. ™M: VEivansseidtnere seomed tobe an una ‘mous opinion that on per showing bei made on the part on the roach it would be ane. to-enter upon !the enterprise.

The msn seemed to be utteriy dumb, and but little better than an antomaton. On raising his hands, he let them stay in the same position to which they were litted: and upon examining his mouth it remained expanded. as if he could exercise no control over his muscles. Not a syslable could be drawn from him, and the only sign of life was a silly leer of the connte- nance and a perpetnal shiver ot his whole frame.
