SIR AFTER consulting many persons interested in
the principal Rail- Roads in the United States, the
undersigned propose TO establish agencies 10 this
city aud in New York, for the purpose OF collect
ing full and authentic Railroad statistics and
such other information will enable them TO serve
persons desiring invest in Rail Road securities,
OF TO procure Information ofany matters connected
with the construction and administration of Raj.
Roads. They also propose, especially, TO urge
upon Congress modification of the laws relat-
ing contracts for carrying the mall so as 10 au-
thorlze the Post Office Department to contract fo
the perpetual use of Rail Roads, and, instead Of
paying, as now, quarterly on contracts for foul
years, 10 advance IN hve per cent. bonds of the
United States, chargeable upon the revenues of
the Post Office Departmental amount, the inte.
rest upon which at per cent. would equal q
payments now made.
The government now pays $500 per mile for
carrying the mail on first class Railroads. Tn -
is 8 per cent. on $1,000. The undersigned would
urge that, instead paying $500 a mile, per an-
mum, the Department should deliver, on acontract
perpetuty, five 81 900 bonds, bearing an inte
rest of i've per centum. At this rate the charge
upon the Department would be reduced from $500
to $3.50 mile, per annum, and the $50 per mile
saved would create sinking fund which will, in a
fewyears, pay ofthe Bonds, and give the use ofuuch
roads forever thereafter free of all charge there
by eilectng vast saving the present annual
expenditures of the Pc Office Department, and
consequent reduction of the rates of postage.
The effect will be no less advantageous TO Rail
Road Companies than to the government For
instance, such a contract would give to the Bati-
more and Ohio Railroad Company more than
$4,000 900, which would enable that complete its
road at early day, and greatly increase It's BUSH
ness and profits.
But to meet objections and impress the public
mind with proper sense of the benefits to result
from this measure will require concert of action
and continued active effort, through the press and
otherwise. The undersigned tender their services
to your Company, expecting reasonable COM
pensation, partly contingent upon the success OF
the measure and respectfully suggest the pro-
priety of your sending or more delegates to
this city, on the first "Wednesday in December
next, to confer with delegates from other Rail-
Road Companies, as to the details Of the propos-
ed arrangement and the best mode ofbringing the
subject before Congress.
Hoping to hear from you at your earliest con /.
venience we are, respectfully, your obj serv't
