{Richmond &} York River Railroad
   This railroad has now before the General Assembly a bill soliciting aid to the extent of $100,000, in order to complete it. The State owns five-sevenths of the whole stock, and the Directory say that with that sum of money (for which they ask) the road can be completed in a short time, and placed on a paying footing.
