mcnt of sympathy with the United States Gov

came zap for discussion on Saturday, April 10.
Mr. Pcllotan began an excellent speech in
support of the amendment but almost every
sentence was interrupted by the Bonapartiai
majority, and ultimately the amendment wa.
rejected by 1913 against y votes. The latter
embraced nearly al the members Of the Demo.

Both England and France appeared very
anxious to learn something concerning the
foreign policy now to be pursued By the United

Central Railroad 10 Increase is way fare by hall

! thus enabling their readers to judge fairly the
act complained Of We are quite confident

Veto thoroughly large majority viii approve d..
Gov. Fcnton's historical glance at our pas,
!, Legislation affecting the Central is a material
portion Of the case II it he true, a. he SETS
forth, that our successive acts Of legislation
affecting the Central have steadily favored its
stockholders and Managers, then the current
assumption Of settled hostility 70 that Road
IevinceG BY the porty now in power is shown to
he unfOunded. Yet half that has been written
during the late session in behalf Of the proposed
increase Of fare has assumed that The Republ-
can party arc hostile to tie Central, or at best
afraid TO treat it with justice
For our own part, We utterly disolaim both
the hostility and the cowardice. We know no
reason in the present, whatever there may have
been in tie past, for i'll will 10 the Central, for
we believe it now managed in q spirit Of
fairness and justice to all parties; and we ask
no more. We never wished it to favor our side
in politics; We only asked that it make no war
upon US; and we believe it now makes none.
We propose, then, to let bygones be bygones,
and to treat this Road like tie Erie or any
other, with impartial justice.
Nor have we ever believed or taught that a.
icOald no, do to letthe Central increase It's fare,
even though it ought TO have that privilege. IT,
will always do to be just. And, with no shadow
Of interest in the road but that OF a frequent
and paying passenger We say that we would
far sooner pay three cents per mile for being
carried safely and promptly over good road,
than TO be carried over a dlapdated, Iickety,
to us that an increase of fare is necessary to
enable the managers to keep the road i'll first
rate condition and pay fair dividends to it,
stockholders, and We will not only assent to but
advocate such increase.
Yet we think the managers erred in proposing
an increase of local or way fare. In fact, there
is tendency to this error on the part Of railroad
managers generally. They seem to consider
through travel matter for keen competition and
low prices, while rag travel is theirs any how,
so as not to need any nursing. This is grave
mistake. For the way passengers of a road are
not, as they seem to think, nearly all residents
Oh the immediate line of that road, but are
gathered from farms and villages for miles on
either side of it. Many passenger comes ten
miles by stage or private conveyance to reach a
station rides forty miles on the road, then FIVE
miles by stage again, to reach destination
which was not forty miles from bis starting
point; and even half cent per mile in railroad
fare may decide whether he shall go by rail at
all or proceed directly by wagon. Hence We
hold that railroads should always carry way

the Interior to know if the book should be ad-

referred the matter to the Empress, in the
temporary absence of Maximilian, and she
could not bring herself to refuse the admis-
sion of a book which circulates in every coun.

censed the clerical party in Mexico, and
heightened the suddenness of the rupture with
