SIR.
You would confer a great favor on a large por-
tion Of citizens, ii you would say something 10 stir
up the management Of the Harlem Railroad Com
pany, and also the proprietor Of the line Of stages
running through the Bowery and Third Avenue, 10
the hours of cessation from business in the evening"
aud in Indictment weather, IT Is next 10 impossible
To get into either of these conveyances al any
point after starting The rail cars appear to have
no stated periods of running, bu, each seems to be
entirely at the caprice OF the conductors, whose
only aim is to the cars to the utmsst extent OF
their capacity, without the lmost distant reference
to personal comfort or convenience, for, when
every seat is filed, the passage between the seats,
and the platform on both ends, they still continue
10 take on every passenger who may offer.
|, myself, live some distance up town, and the
sole nducement 10 ride 10 fatigue, and II is no &C
commodaton to be obliged to stand on the end OF
ous situation, subject, most commonly, to the an
noyance OF tobacco smoke, and having to make
way for the egress OF passeD gers often by jumping
off Nothing is gained in time, tor they travel at a
such a slow pace, and have 10 stop so often that
you may walk al a moderate pace, and net be
much behind. The cars advertise to start every
ten minutes, but have waited on the corner OF
Broome street and Bowrry. that time, and then
walked TO l4,h, 18th, and 10Th streets, without a
single car passing me up. So tar comfort is
concerned, the stages are much preferable 10 the
cars, and II an additional number was placed on
this rout at the times mentioned, and II they would
travel somewhat faster, many would prefer the
stages altogether, who now ride in, or on the Ill.
regulated cars You may hear curses, both loud
md deep, any evening IN the week, from the VIC
inns OF this state fittings but from some cause or
other, your paper Is the only one in which have
Observed any structures on the management OF ths

hold a meeting at Labatts \ Roads on

ter into consideration and thus we will be
enabled to cooperate with them. The
time is now drawing near when, If we are
going to "make fight" we should begin TO
buckle on our armour and prepare for the
contest. We have an active, yiglIani and
