FREIGHT CHARGES on THE VIRGINIA CEN
TRIAL RAILRoAD.-The Richmond Enquirer
Copies our article 10 reference to the charges
90 Freigh. on the Virginia Central r abroad,
and subjoius the following remarks:
1--WE know nothing of tho above charges
made BY the Alexandria &c zette." We
are very glad to see the &c zstte" turning
its attention to Railroad affairs. We may
ask if the Orange and Alexandria Railroad
does not discriminate 10 Its charges in favor
Of freight going to Alexandrial We know
that there is general complaint against
nearly every road 10 the State, for high ates
Of freight. This, We may say, is a uniSer-
sal complaint made against our roads,
Whether the Central discriminates against
Alexandria or not, We cannot say. Let the
Gazette" point out the kind OF discrlmins.
ton. Such discrim alton is unjust to the
farmer and unasked By Richmond Our city
enters fair field of competition in trade,
and does not deserve or desire any Fictitious
aid from unjust Discrimination. We would
like to Zee tue Gazette" call the attention Of
the Orange and Alexandria Railroad 20 the
Discrimination made against freight coming
to Richmond. How is it that there is so lit
tie harmony between these two roads -
Whose fault is it7 Complains are being
made against to.h. Cauuot fair tariff vi
tor rates be fixed by all our roads? Such
tariff would greatly increase the business OF
the roads, and can be made perfectly fair to
Alexandria as we'll as to Redmond. A full
bill Of complaint against our roads, wonld
embrace many reforms that now initiate
greatly against their freight business"
The Enquirer will 6nd upon investigation
that the DETERMINATIONS complained Of by US
d. exist. We have made enquiry in the pro-
per quarter, ard learn that similar discriuins-
tions are made upon the Orange and Alex
andra Railroad, and we see by the toll sheet
of the Danville Road that like policy is
pursued upon it. All we have to say is, that
We consider it all wrong, AID trust that the
Board of Public Works AID the State proxies
will do their duty by the State, aud apply
the proper corrective, should this course be
persisted in by these or other Companies
To illustrate the system, as pursued by the
Central Road, We give the following table,
from q source which happens to be at hand:
