Our railroad system at home is as yet limited, but
the stepping stone to future Importance has been
gained. The administration Of our roads has been,
up to the present time, markedly characterized by
strict observance Of rule and discipline We look
forward to the future, and may fairly suppose that

10 all who are connected, either directly or indi-
reetly with our railroad interests it is certainly de-
rabe that the causes Of accidents upon other roads
should be made apparent SO that they may properly
take measures to guard against disastrous casualties
The measures to be taken, in order to obviate the
possibility of accidents upon railroads, are most diff.
4 sficult to point out.
The New York Commercial Advertiser well says
that neither legislative enaetments nor supernten-
dents instructions do this, if employees Wilfuy
set both at defiance. Yet simple enactment, making
disobedience of written or known instructions from
\ the proper source Of authority criminal offence,
with sufficient penalty, would, we cannot help think
ing, be salutary measure inasmuch as the fear OF
the penalty might operate where other motives would
be Intellectual
The best data that we have been able to obtain,
prove incontestibly that the larger number of &C
eidents have their origin in either carelessness
or disobedience of orders. To this stop can
and should be put. Now, that the public mind is
awakened to the Importance of the subject, we hope
that the fullest investigation and the heartiest CO
operation upon all sides will be lent to the remedying

consumption foreign sugar for the year ending
the both June, 1856, cannot be known until the pub
LEGATION of " The Report of Commerce and Naviga-
tom is made in December next. The consumption
of foreign sugar in the United States in 1856, was
100000 Of pounds OF domestic sugar, crop of
1854, 1872 1000 900 Of pounds. Total consumption of
1854 and 1866, s22 100000 Of pounds
Assuming that the consumption of 1855 and 1856
was as large as that Of the previous year. the import
and consumption of foreign sugar would have been
559,0OO0O0 Of pounds. Taking this as the basis of
calculation of consumption in 1856 and 1857, and
assuming product in Che United States of 100000
O00of pounds the quantity to be imported in 1856
and 1857 would be 722 10000 of pounds.
The import and consumption of foreign sugar of
the United States was, in 1896, 4400OO00O. If
an import of 722 100000 is required in 1s5G'57, it
will exceed the imports Of 55, 332 100000 or
rs per cent more will be required from abroad than
heretofore.
1t is assumed that the crop of sugar made in the
United States, in 1885, will not exceed 900 of
pounds. Owing to the diseased condition of the SUI
gar cane Of Louisiana the crop has fallen from near
5Oo,O0O0O0 of pounds in 1858 to 250OO000o in 1866
and no well informed person can think the crop OF
/ 1856 will go over the estimate Of l00000O00.
i The diseased state of the cane for several years
past, andth very long, cold and wet winter, has
eradcated the rattoon cane. There is very little
RATION cane made in 1856 in Louisiana as to make il
unnecessary to take into consideration in estimate
of the quantity of cane necessary mat for planting
in 1857. Many will be compelled to put in mat al
of their crops Of 1856 Few or none will make as
much sugar as in 1856; and ninetenths cannot make
the onehalf Of what they made in 1855. These ar,
fcts patent to all who informed upon matters re
lating to sugar in Louisiana.
1t is quite common practice to oyerrate the pre-
duct of sugar in the United States. 1t will be yer,
difficult for any to underate it in 1856 If al
the cane now growing was saved for planting in 1851
the crop of that year would not amount to the pre-
. duct of 1868.
/ High prices tend to diminish consumption. TIL
capacity to consume was never so great owing t
the general prosperity A rapid increase of popul;
ton will also have tendency topreyent much redu,
ton in the importation of sugar. ALBEMARLE.

| We called upon Mr. Brooks yesterday in relation tC
this matter he pronounces the letter forgery. We
claim to be particularly guarded in what goes in the
Crescent, yet do not assume to be infallibe. ON
aim has always been to make the Crescent journa
in which the community could place reliance. W.
have never allowed party zeal to carry so fa
as to make publications for mere party effect withou
regard to correctness.
Sometimes, although not often, things get into on
columns that should not be there. In all such case
we are prompt to make amends as far as it is il
our power to do so. Had Mr.. Brooks taken the trou
BILE to inform us that our publication was erroneous
we should at once have corrected it, which woul
have rendered this, perhaps unnecessarily length
explanation, uncaled for.
