| The government has taken into
its possession the cars at the depot of the Orange & Alexandria Railroad,
containing a quantity of musket stocks and two boxes of highly finished
tools for the construction of implements of war, each valued at $2,000. |

| The Orange & Alexandria
Railroad, which is made the continuation of a military line, is rapidly
being repaired by the Federal forces under charge of competent
engineers. There are at the depot here one good locomotive, two old
castaways, one passenger car, fifteen baggage
{probably "box"} and five gondola cars. |
