Let them also remember that while

Presiuent of a railroad, refused to al
low Ohio sick and wounded soldiers
to pass over his road on half fare, al
though he was urgently appealed to
by State officials to grant them that
small favor, and after the hard heart

One Of the SOphiStries OF Mr.
aa.ga BrOugh Exposed. ..,

Mr.. Brough, in his speech at this
place, attempted to make something
out Of the fact, that the Democrats
denounced those who opposed the war
with Mexico. That war, like that OF
1912 with England, was Waged in de
tenco Irrational rights against for
oign enemy. Now. Mr.. Brough may
believe there is no ditiernoe between
a family repoIling an assault from with
out, or aSeulting an enemy beyond its
own threshold in defense OF its rights,
and a quarrel in the family ltseIf
must come, no matter which side sue.
ceeds. In, the former instance, sue
cess strengthened; while in the case
OF civil war, every battle produced
weakness, and, if continued, must
end in national destruction. % ...
Every man Of sense can see why,
in the case of a foreign; war, a Demo
crat would desire to have }every.citi-
zen support the national authority,
aud in a civil war, to have the diff
Guilty adjusted peacaably and as soon
as possible among ourselves. In this
latter struggle, in which the country
is now unfortunately engaged, Dem
ocrats see that the wealth, the lives,
and, more precious still, the political
principles, which are the life Of our
Republican government, are rapidly
disappearing. They feel that all that
makes family great and powerful
in being destroyed by this iraternal
war. They therefore, are for peace.
Mr.. Brodgh, we repeat, may not
see the difference between a foreign
war anda civil war, but we'do not
believe the people can be blinded to
the distinction. They can under
stand and appreciate it. The ques-
tion is too vital to their presens and
future interests, for their general
good sense, to be misled by the cant
and epithet 30 freely used by Mr..
Brough to impose upon their judg'
ment. -EnQHirer.

~ A railroad monopoly project has been
headed of as summariy in New York as was
Judge Tenney's injunction few years since
against the Androscoggin Railroad, by the eff
ficient President of that corporation. 1t seems
the Legislature was about to give monopoly
to Geo. Law to lay down rails in Broadway,
for which he was to pay no revenue to the CT
ty, and leaving the city to keep the street in
repair. The City Council, getting wind of it,
took advantage of a provision in the charter
of the Harlem Railroad, and promptly grant,
ed that company the privilege to extend their
rails through the street, the company paying
TO the city one-tenth of all receipts, keeping
the entire street paved from curb to curb, and
limiting the fares to five cents for the entire
route. In three hours after the authority was
granted by the city, the Harlem Company
were tearing up pavements, distributing sleep
ers and rails, and had actually commenced
laying the track. An injunction was served,
but the company had gained mine points of
aw'-possession-an had efiectually exclud-
ed Live Oak George by vtalizing prior act
of the Legislature which had been allowed to
remain dormant.
