Quick Work
   The Virginia Central Railroad Company commenced on Monday the erection of a temporary railway, between the Central and Fredericksburg {Richmond, Fredericksburg & Potomac RR} depots, for the purpose of removing their engines to the latter, and on yesterday had nearly completed the work. The employees engaged in the undertaking pitched in with an energy which looked as if they had been spoiling for a job of that kind for some time, and were determined to immortalize their bone and sinew by an exhibition of alacrity unusual to the sight of the citizens of Richmond.
