   The Manassas Gap Railroad Company receives many undeserved comments and complaints from some persons in Rockingham county. These persons talk as if it were not the duty and the interest of the President and Directors to push the work on as rapidly as possible. We have every reason to believe that the work is conducted as rapidly a it can be, under the circumstances. The President, Directors, officers and contractors, all exert themselves to go ahead. But the complainants will please to recollect the times, the difficulties, and necessity for funds. Have patience and do justice.
