From the Richmond Dispatch
 
December 13, 1861
 
Richmond & Danville Railroad Company
   The stockholders of this company reassembled last night at Metropolitan Hall, the lack of a quorum having prevented the transaction of any important business previously. The main subject of debate was the proposed connection of the road with the North Carolina Railroad, alluded to as a military necessity by President Davis in his message to Congress; and among those who participated was Ex Governor Morehead, of North Carolina. There seemed to be a decided sentiment in favor of the scheme, and it is probable that the President and Directors of the road will be authorized to co-operate with the Government in the matter.
