An advertisement in this paper, offering employ
ment to five hundred laborers on the Mobile and
Ohio Railroad, has been treated with suspicion by
one Of the city papers, as though II were political
trick and not genuine call. The suspicion is un-
just. The contractors, Messrs. Riddle & Co., are
responsible men and are ready to give employ
ment to laboFers as advertised They are not only
contractors for The Ohio and Mobile Railroad, but
also on the Western and Atlantic Railroad. Their
contract on that road amounts to nearly five hun.
bred thousand dollars, and the number of men em-
ployed is very large. The idea that they have
political objects in view in employing 30 many
men, is not at all reasonable, particularly prom
inent partner in the contract, is a very ardent
democrat, and would not be likely to suffer his
means 70 be wasted, in the injury Of his political
friends.
We make this statement at the request Of. one Of
the partners, who expresses very strongly his be-
lief that great benefit, instead Of wrong, would
be conferred upon the people Of New Orleans, if
steady employment could be given to few hum
bred immigrants and others who need it, and that
no distinction is made or thought of between those
who have or have not votes The road on which
thesemen are to be employed is as we learn, to be
pressed vigorously forward. Ground has been
broken about thirty miles from Mobile, which by
water is beyond what is called the Thirty-six Mile
Bluff on the Alabama river, and wilfbe in the first
place worked to the city. The projectors feel con-
ident that they can carry it through into the Mis-
sissippi cotton region by the funds in hand, and
they have assurances that once there, Eastern CAPT
talists will take it through to the Ohio river.
