A Few Question. for "veritas.o

WnMIsoTos, DEL, July 9Th, 1866
Dear Commercial II read with much pleasure
the labored article in Saturdays paper, signed
VERITAs, and was SO much delighted with his
unanswerable arguments that have searched the
Directory for his name and residence. To my
utter dismay have failed to find them registered
there, and must therefore ask an introduction to
the gentleman through you and request him to
answer few questions for my edification
let. Will he explain why the cities situated on
the North and East Rivers that have been tor
mented with Opposition Lines and low fares since
much prosperity and increase as rapidly as any
cities In the country?
"a. Why Newark, N. j., under the pernicious
influence OF trains or boat conveying her citi-
zens to New York every hour at the low fare of
Ing manufacturing citya
3D.. Nearing home, why has Chester tormonted
with half fare to Philadelphia, completely out
stripped us In manufactures?
4th. Which is of the most importance to Will
mlngton, the merchants doing business of 3d.
$15,000,O00?
9th. Whyis 1t our merchants cannot sell as
cheap as Philadelphia merchants?
9th. Can he name merchant that does not sell
cheaper than the most reasonable Philadephian !?
7th Would 1t not be advisable to tear up the
Railroad and blow up the Steamboats,, in order
that wilmington may be walled out from the
sth. Does not the Atrial remind him of the
tabled spider trying to coax the fly into his par
9TH Does he think the fly will walk in for
10th. Why had the Atrial ffty-fvc passengers
twenty-nine?
These things l cannot understand and hope
"Viritas" will tell ME all about it.

Fred Douglass at NORFOLK.


among the passengers by the Annamessic Line
through Wilmington on Friday was Fred.
Douglass, who has just been to Norfolk, and ad.
dressed there, yesterday, large meeting, of some
5000 or 1000 people. About one-third Of his au-
aienee were white, and the reception given to
inc distinguished New Yorker was quite cordial
ne was invited to speak, yesterday, at Easton, in
Talbot county, but was obliged to decline he
invitation. The recollection of that town has y,
him a rather peculiar interest, derived from an
incarceration within the Jail there, while waiting
TO BE sold at auction, previous to his escape from
slavery. ''o'4
While Mr. Douglass was in Norfork he received
= telegram from New York informing him Of the
arrival OF his brother in that city, and on this ac
count he hurried home. :
inns brother was sold into slavery about forty
years ago. and Mr.. Douglass has not been able to
hear from him until very recently when he learn
ed that he was in Texas. - 49, =

lars dlsbursed monthly by 1t here for materials,
new work, repairs, &C., &c.
Now, We hold that m Incorporated city is a
limited partnership, each one Of the corporators
having pecnninry Interest equal to the value of
his property Yet if we are to receive as just all
the anathemns we hear pronounced against the
Rail Road, the soonerit is expelled from the linz
Its Of our corporation the more prosperous we
shall be. ,,ii EHF
One of the many accusations made against the
Road the persistent discrimination in the fares
against the interest of this city. We do not pro-
fess to be entirely posted upon this subject, but
will state what we know. The fare from Phila-
delpha to Baltimore Is $3.25-15 cents goes to
pay the u. 8. Government tax, and 10 cents our
State tax leaving nett 80. The Road Is 98 miles
long and 1t requires but little calculation to show
that this is rather more than Q cents per mile. A
package Of coupon tickets between Wilmington
and Philadelphia costs 62lS cents for each ticket
"a cents goes to pay U. s. Government tax. and
10 cents our State tax leaving nett 90 cents.-
The Road from Wilmington to Philadelphia Is
called 28 matchmaking the fare less than cents
per mile, or one-third off in favor of the Whining
ton passengers. Take rs cents fare, of which the
Rail Road netts just 81 cents this Is less than ~
cents per mile, being over u cent per mile in ia
vor of our citizens. The only other point upon
which l have any knowledge is he fare from
Washington to Philadelphia, which is $5-to our
city, 1850; being just the difference the Com
pany gets on coupon ticket. Now, If 1t is dis
advantage to pay one third lower fare per mile
between here and Philadelphia, this Is discrmi-
mating In fare against our citizens" VERITAs.
