Here merchants of Baltimore is the whole arup
meht against this discriminating policy of the Bal
tmore and Ohio directory Every word of that
argument tells on the mercantile interests of this
Slty. For the injury inflicted on Cincinnati; she
mas remedy. Other avenues gap to receive her
tohnage-other cities welcome her rejected COM
merce; out the wrong done to Baltimore is without
remedy and without recompense.
DUTY OF BALTIMORE MERCHANTS
IL Dehooyes the merchants of Baltimore to look
closely INTO this matter. They must examine it in
an ITS surroundings, Their road, the creation of
tnelr commercial ambition, has fallen under control
OF speculation, and unseen interests mould its
Potc'es." The creature is made to forget its
creator, and its energies now exerted to benefit
otner interests than those of its parent city
Merchants OF Baltimore, the subject is well worth
your attention. In another number | propose to
snow that this discriminating policy, in favor of
the ONO Central Road, not only drives the river
trade to other markets. but it is carried to length
as actually to benefit other cities BY discrimina-
tion against Baltimore.
