Supplies from the Country
   The notice of the President of the {Virginia} Central Railroad Company, that everything shall be done within its power to facilitate the transportation of freight to this city when the trains are not preoccupied by the Government, will, it is hoped, have an effect to forward from the country the market supplies which are now so much needed. Farmers need have no fear of the impressments monster, for the laws now guarantees a fair compensation for all articles seized. Neither can they hesitate on account of prices, for they are now high enough to admit of some margin for reduction in the event that an abundant supply should lead to such a result.
