TRAVELLING FOR LESS THAN A FART111N,,,,,j6
MILK—The competition between the Forth and tivio
Canal Company and the Edinburgh Railway is so etr,.°
that the Canal Company now carry passengers TO*
Glasgow to Edinburgh, with profit, at less than s to

the public, when the opposing parties are in carp 0,
Since the reduction of fairs by the Canal Colorer
about a year ago, the increase of passengers near'Yof
ceeds belief, being 235 per cent. Increase upon tbe;co
through passenger trade, and 209 per cent, by the
boats. The last half-yearly report of the Con3,Psss
from which we glean these results, further states, 0,
all this has been accomplished " at an extra expenno.
exceeding thirty pounds." This great increase of ribs
sengers has again been exceeded by the returns for
last month, and we have little doubt that the Canal stis
pany will find that they never did anything more f"tios
benefit of the proprietors than the reduction they
made in the fares —Glasgow Saturday Post.
