The RAILROAD CONSOLIDATION QUESTION.
1t is reported that the committees of the
Western and Boston and Worcester roads
have agreed upon the terms of a union of
these these two corporations; but what the
terms are they have not made known. That
committees appointed as they were should be
delightfully."- harmonious takes no one by sur
prise. That result was the end and aim Of
their creation. Now Gas was also inevitably
the proposition has been made in the senate
for an enabling act, by which the needed legal
power to unite as the Albany and Boston road
may be given to the stockholders of the two
roads. That proposition was made by Mr..
Shaw, who is a senator from Suffolk and one
OF the directors Of the Western road. TWAS
referred to the railroad committee, of which
the same gentleman is member. In few
days it will of course reappear, and receive,
we hope, that careful and dispassionate con-
sideratioa which its importance demands.
Our own views upon the general question
have been expressed heretofore, and we have
seen no reason to change them.
We are entirely opposed to any such con-
solidation at this time. We oppose it because
of the spirit in which it has been and is sought,
and because there are no public reasons what
ever to urge in its behalf. On the other hand
a corporation of such magnitude as that pro
posed would be, ought not to be thought of,
unless required by an imperious public ne
cessity. That any such necessity exists, no
body pretends. We ask our Legislators to
inform themselves fully on these points, and
especially to be instructed by the experience
Oh o'her states, If they deeisively reject this
scnehe OF consolidation, the exp citation of
iurther legislative interference will end. and
vne principal stumbling block to equitable set
'ieinen'S OF JOINT earnings by the two roads will
be removed. --' an

New YORK, April 1.-THE New York
Evening Post says, we have been handed the
following dispatches received this morning by
a naval officer =
''WAsnNGToN, April lis A. M.--Your
friend Lieut.. c., of the army of the Potomac,
telegraphs to me that president Davis receiv-
ed, late on Thursday night, dispatches from
commodore Ingraham at Charleston, which do
not appear in yesterdays Richmond papers.
The nature of the news is not known, but it
is supposed here that if it were favorable no
secret would be made of 1t. Our authorities
are also nervous as to the result. The power
of our shot is matter of grave dispute be-
tween professional men. j. W.. 5.
''The above would seem to be. confirmed by
the fact that the. rebel sympatlizers in this
city are greatly depressed for some cause or
other'

From Gen. Hooker,s Army.

HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE PoToMAc,
April 1l.-President Lincoln, accompanied
by Mrs. Lincoln and attorney general Bates,
left Aqua Creek last night for Washington.
During his presence in the camp president
Lincoln reviewed the whole army Of the Po-
tomac, including the cavalry and artillery.
But one opinion has been expressed in rela-
ton to the discipline and efficiency Of general
Hooker's army, and this sentiment the presi-
dent fully shares.
1t is a significant fact that the dispatches
from Charleston make no reference to'the
rebel loss in the recent conflict there Had it
been slight this fact would probably have been
noted.
The Fredericksburg correspondence of the
Richmond Whig dated the Sth, says "All
is quiet as usual to-day except the firing of
salute of II guns in the direction of tine Po-
tomac. A report from the other side says
that Hooker's army continues greatly demor-
allied, and that fears are entertained for the
safety of the federal army in the west" The
same correspondent says that the late
confederate success seems to cause great dis
couragement to the federal troops.

for, if they did, he would capture them; and
if they wanted Washington to come and take
