The railroad—which has been taken up under the most favorable auspices of the State of Virginia—in- tended to connect the Westernport. coal fields with Alexandria, near Paddytown, on the Potomac, about twenty miles west of Cumberland, will be sixty milcs shorter and of casier grades than the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, giving to the Westernport companies adecided advantage over those sending coal from Cumberland. { ‘The Miners’ Journal of the 26th March reports the quantity of coal sent from Frostburg at 72,656 ~tons, and for the week ending the 2d of April 10,790 tons were sent down, making the entire aggregate receipts at Cumberland, for the quarter ending April 2, 83,446 tons—the whole produce of seven mining associations. ‘The special business of the Cumberland Company, for the week ending the 26th of March, was 3,648 tons, and for the week ending on the 2d April 3,124, exhibiiing a decrease of 524 tons, which is, beyond doubt, occasioned by the deficiency of coal ship- ping tonnage et Baltimore and Alexandria, notwith- standing the high rate of freight per ton, being two ; dollars to New York and Boston, and two and a half to Portland. The earnings of the Cincinnati, Hamilton anl Dayton Railroad Company, during the month of March, 1853, amounted to $35,678 39, against $19,067 29 forthe same month last year—showing an increase in the month this year of $16,611 10.
