Washington County R. R.
   We know not whether the military authorities are doing anything to help this road, but we are certain that it is very important to the service, and that it is in much need of repair. It runs through the richest portion of the State. A large lot of the finest bacon we ever saw, came down it yesterday, on its way to camps. Delays and failures to connect have been frequent on this road recently; should these continue, and grow worse, great inconvenience will ensure, not only to a large portion of country, but also to the numerous camps and garrisons which have been so largely dependent on this important link of transportation for supplies.
