   An Executive communication was sent into Congress yesterday stating that the Government had made a contract with the Richmond & Danville Railroad Company, under the style of the Piedmont Railroad Company, for the completion of the railroad connecting the Richmond & Danville with the North Carolina railroad. The company has secured the charter and commenced operations, but the War Department is not informed of their progress.
