Railroad Resuiasion.


Mr.. Aliens bill to in,errup, and enba.rsss
travel on our Railroads, under the specious pretest
Of protecting passengers from imposition, sleeps
quietly in the House, but we fear no, soundly. 1t
can only pass by surprise and it is from fear OF
that that allude TO it.
An esteemed friend writes Us from Albany, ad-
mitng that the bill has many defects, but insisting
on the necessity of some legislation on the subject,
asking what objection we can have TO the clause
which compels the Railroads to give man his
baggage and restore him the balance OF his money
at any stage of his journey.
We answer that we have very serious objections
to any legislation of the kind Ii does BOT become
the Legislature be making provisions for childs
bargains and contrac,-breaking. No man Is under
the least restraint pay mile farther ahead than
he chooses. II going West, he may pay to Schenec-
tady, then to Utica, then to Syracuse, and 30 on
But if he chooses to pay to Buffalo, and does pay,
then the Legislature has business to step in and
break the bargain, leaving it obligatory on the
Railroads but not on the passengers. Should one
take whim to go some other way, it is unjust to
all the ether passengers as well as the Railroads
to compel the latter TO overhaul whole cars OF bag
gage to their sore Inconvenience and the injury OF
the property, in order to give him his stuff at
place where they had made contract AID no
arrangements to deliver it.
But we are equally opposed to another provision
OF the bill-that which requires all the Railroads
to cushion the seats of all their cars, both surface
and back Primarily, they might as properly
prescribe tina, every landlord shall roast turky
and venison on his dinner-table every day. But
the object is still more excePuonabe, being clearly
the breaking up of the lower-priced cars. For, II
all seats are to bs cushioned and every thing to be
furnished in drawng-room style, nearly every body
will travel BY the cheaper cars and SO destroy the
distinction. The Companies must then return to
the price system and this necessarily higher
than the second-cess price; and this will send the
poor passengers back to the Canals, which we
cannot doubt is the end aimed at.
As to the talk about orergrown monopoly,
&c. we swallow very little of that sort OF iog.-
Right along side of tie Railroad runs one of the
fines, Canals in the world, open all the emgrating
and most of the travelling season. carrying passen-
gers very cheaply and very comfortably. When we
have time, the Canal is our favorite route. Then
there is Lake Ontario, running opposition to the
Railroads half way-affording beautiful route,
traversed by splendid steamboats,. The Railroads
must behave themselves well, if they want to carry
most of the passengers as of course they do. If
they commit any iniqnties, we delight to expose
them, and 80 do most Editors. Half dozen
~ ,b,,
twice as many Legislatures. Just give US authen-
tic reliable information Of any Railroad abuses
that may henceforth occur, and we III blszon it to
the world and stand the Ceeperage. Why is MT
this better than making absurd laws at them
