The Central and Hudson River Railroad
Fight.

The Central and Hudson River Railroad
Fight.
The fight between the Central and Hudson
River Railroads does not appear to be yet
adjusted, and the travelling public will to-day
be compelled to suffer from the serious incon-
veniences it entails upon them. The Legisia-
ture seems disposed to move seriously in the
matter, and several bills having in view the
protection Of the people against the whims
and caprices Of these corporations have been
noticed in the Senate and Assembly. 1t was
rumorad yesterday that an arrangement would
be likely to take place to-day; but all this Is
uncertain and dependent upon the viii OF the
parties concerned in the fight. In the mean
time every passenger who is compelled to take
the Hudson River or Harlem and the Central
railroads to reach their homes will be set
down at East Albany, to And their way
across the river as they best can, although
the. bridge, built under special grant Of
the Legislature, stands ready to take them
over the Hudson in comfortable cars. The
reason Of this Is shat the Hudson River road
refuses to allow the passenger cars Of the
Central to run on their tracks on this side Of
the bridge, even for the purpose of receiving
q transfer Of passengers. The public care
nothing about the squabbles Of the directors
of any Of these roads, but they will Insist that
they shall not be carried on ut their expense
and to their inconvenience. The Legislature
should act promptly In applying remedy for
the evil There is one feature of the freight
business, as heretofore conducted, which is an
outrage upon the citizens of this State. Local
freight going within the State is charged out
of all proportion higher than through freight
This should no longer be suffered. The freight
for places in the interior OF the State is now,
in consequence Of these troubles, shipped by
way of Bridgeport, and We are informed that
the rates by that indirect route are actually
lower than those charged ever the Hudson
River road, in consequence Of tho discrimina-
tion made on our own roads against our own
citisens. The Legislature should look into this
matter without delay. sa ra sFt

Now Phases ef the unf~rmInasie Mexican
infuddIe. n

Affairs in and with regard to Mexico
are constantly changing. 1t is difficult to
know what IL taking place or what is going to
happen. At one time we are Informed that
the Emperor Napoleon Il going to withdraw
all the French troops In good faith as promised
to our government; then We hear that portion
Of them will be left a. volunteers TO support
Maximilian. One day II is reported that Maxi
milan Is about to abandon Mexico, and the next
that he Is determined to hold on and igbt It
out to the last ditch and last man. One report
represents The national liberal forces as making
great headway, and another that they have been
repulsed and driven hack The complexion
Of these contradictory reports varies according
to the medium through which they come.
The last and most reliable news, however, IL
that with regard to the trick which Napoleon
n about to play upon our government Il mp
pears now that the representative Of the EN-
peror IN Mexico. General Castelnsu, has re-
ceived despatch instrucIing HIM MT TO mako
any effort to force Macmillan to leave, aud
telling him that those French soldiers who wish
to stay os volunteers under the imperial Mex-
lean banner are TO be permitted to remain.
II Is supposed That tempting inducements
will be offered and that large number Of
these soldiers will remain. Some coercion may
be used even under this pretext OF volunteering
Meanwhile there Is no doubt the liberals are
advancing to the principal cities and even to
the city Of Mexico, in every direction, as the
French command Is Withdrawn. Maximilian,
with all the French volunteers and native
troops he can muster, will hardly be able to
check this swelling tide OF the liberals around
him. II Is really surprising that so astute
man as Napoleon should not see this II he
were wise and acting in good faith he would
not only refuse to letany Of the French soldiers
remain as volunteers, but would insist upon the
departure OF the imperial puppct he set mp
with his own forces The establishment Of
Maximilian Is part Of the Intervention Of Ma
poleon, and nothing short Of its removal win
satisfy this country. Kthe French Emperor 10
going to play the tricky game reported he win
hear such . voice Of indignation IRON Con-
gress and the people Of this country - may

sake Of peace and 70 preserve good relations
