Loudon and Hsmpshire road. Mr. Samuel Bacon called the meeting to order, and on his motion, Alderman J. A. Tait ‘was called to the chair. Col. Tait said be would much prefer that some business man should occupy the chair. He suggested that oue of the George. town delegation be cal'ed tothe chair. George- town was perbaps more deeply interested in the road than Washington. The meeting re- fused to excuse Alderman Tait. Recorder C. M. Matthews of Georgetown was chosen Secretary. The list of committees being called, the fol- lowing named gentlemen answered :—Samuel Owen Thorn, and James L. Barbour, rd of Trade; James A. Tait, T. 0. Connol- y- A. P. Clarke, Robert Ball and S. Baker, of the Washington City Councils; Sam’! Crop- ley, Benjamin Darby, Levi Davis, and O. M. Matthews. Georgetown Councils: William H. Tenney and George Waters, of the Corn Ex- change of Georgetown. Mr. Connolly suggested that some gentleman give a description of the country ard some of the plans proposed to make the connection with the road. ‘The Secretary read the resolutions adopted vt the Leesburg meeting. Mr Bacon ssid Loudon county w: the one of richest counties in the State of Virginia, if the people of this District could open ade with that county it would be of immense alue. Thenearest point where the road could connect was four miles distant, bu: as to the cost of the road he could give no information. ‘The condition of the Alexandria, Loudon and Hampshire road was very good, and they Nould soon liquidate their devt.’ As to the Corporation of Washington, it was so situated that no subscription could be made on behalf of the people, and they would have to ask Congress to be allewed to subscribe, or the | subscription must be by the citizens of the | Tustrict. As to Georgetown, they were differ- ently situated, and could increase their debt it they thought proper. r.Wm. H. Tenney said the Alexandria, cudon, and Hampshire road was graded some 10 or 12 miles beyond Leesbarg. and be bought there was a beiter country on the other side ot Leesburg than on this side. Already a ount of freight was brougk? down to Leesburg. He was not aware jon ot Washington could not aid Georgetown could increare funded debt, but it would be proper to first refer to the people. The debt could be in- i, but they would have to go to Won- ftess to get power to levy an additional tax to } ypida-e the inerensed debt. When the sub- scripion Was made to the Metropolitan road i) was ona petition from the people, and the corporation afterwards obtained authority trom Congress to levy additional taxes to meet He had ne doubt that Conress ld grant the power to both corporations to vy additional taxes for this purpose. He ncugh’ the proper thing was for the commit- -e to confer with the railroad directors. He suggested that a sub-committee of one from exch committee here be appointed to confer with the railroad authorities. Mr. Thorn moved thata Committee of one from exch Committee represented be appointed to confer with the Railroad Directors. Committee was large. and a Sub-committee could attend to the business and report ata fa- tore meeting.

Dulin: Washington Board of Trade, Samuel Bacon: Georgetown Alder- mep, C. M. Matthews; Georgetown Council, Benj. Darby: Georgetown Corn Exchange, Evan Lyons. ‘The Secretary was instructed to intorm the President and Jirectors of the road of the s ot the Sud-committee to meet them. The Sub committee was instructed to report to the full Committee at a future meeting, and the meeting adjourned to meet again at the call of the President. ——————— First Co-orerative Burtptne Fcnp As- socraTION —A called meeting of the First Co- o-erative Building Association was held last night st Potomac Hall, corner of Maryland avenue and 1th street, South Washington: the President.

The referee at the time he gave bis decision was obliged to do so under fear of personal injury 8 man at that moment standing with a big club in hand threatening to Knock bis brains out ifhe did not so decide, and after he got on the boat he piscea himeelf under the pro‘ection of Mr. Bigley who protected him until his arrival ere. —————— THE FRBEDMEN AT KENDALL GRBEN.— Statements have been made in the city pa. pers that there was much soffering amongst the freedmen at Kendall Green, in consequence of the Government having ceased to give ras tions, and the officer in charge enforcing the peremptory coliection of the amount of rent charged to them for their occupancy of the public buitdings—#2 per room per month. That suffering exists among them as well as other Poor people there is no doubt, but their pres- ent destitution cannot be directly owing to the causes assigned, for the reason that al! issues of rations {o the freed people ceased, not re- cently, but as long ago as the 20tb of April last, and the reasonable charge for rent of $2 per room per month has been collected for two years past, without apy similar complaint. In Teference to {he statement as to the summary collection of the rent, the official statement fer October shows that of the amount due the Gov- ernment for rent for the month (8995.50,] only 255.50 bas been paid. gee ‘Tae Stor 1m ALEXaNDRIA.—The Journal of !his morning says: ‘The Potomac nad not made such a watery exbibit as it did Monday night tor six years before.
