,407 was for passenger fare, $428,961 for freight, and $147, 748 for express freight. The total liabilities of the company are $946,552. The company has twenty-nine locomotives, which can all be used or so repaired as to be useful, and 204 cars. The road committee make the following report: The bridge across the Cow pasture river, burnt by the enemy, will be rebuilt and ready for the trains early next year, so there will be a thorough line of travel to Jackson's river, as that across Wilson's creek, which was washed away by a flood in that stream, has been already replaced. That part of the road lying west of the Blue Ridge is in fine condition for the running of the trains, although very little labor has been spent on it during the past year, the obvious reason for which is that it was ballasted soon after the track was laid, which kept the road-bed dry and prevented the cross-ties from being depressed by the weight of the trains.

Destructive fire. --Yesterday morning, about half-past 7 o'clock, the large two-and-a-half-story brick building, immediately west of the large flouring mills of Messrs. Haxall & Crenshaw, on the north bank of James river, and used by the proprietors of that mill for klin-drying barrel timber, accidentally took fire, and in an indescribably short time the entire superstructure was one vast sheet of flames. The firemen being on their way to their engine-houses, heard the alarm, and were soon at work on the burning mass, every man exerting himself as if his life depended upon the effort. The steam-engine, too, poured volumes of water upon the pile, and prevented the flames from spreading eastward to the mills; but the fire had gotten such a hold upon the heaps of lumber that it seemed to be unconquerable. With the most commendable zeal the firemen set to work throwing out the charred timber, regardless of the dense clouds of smoke that filled every nook and cranny of the house. -
