RAILROAD ACCOMMODATION ON
CANAL STREET.

To the Editor Of the New Orleans Crescent:
1t has doubtless occurred to almost every one
who visits Csnalstreet, that II new lines of street
railroads are continued 10 be constructed in the
same ratio as has been done during the past two
years, Canal street will soon be so blocked with
cars as seriously to impede public convenience,
10 say nothing of commerce. Yet the best in
terests of the city demands that no obstacle
should be placed in the way of the organization
Of new railroad lines whenever called for by the
populations Of distant sections of the city. The
consideration then is, how may all parts Of the
city be made accessible from Canal street. and
still leave that great central avenue free from any
obstacle to its commerce?
Without desiring to arrogste TO myself superior
WISDOM it appears to me that | can propose a
plan which will accomplish this without entailing
great expense. Suppose that the different rail-
road companies whose lines have termini on Canal
street, should unite in building line of road from
the Canal street ferry to Basin street and back
thus forming a circular track running entirely
around that part OF Canal street where its entire
business is located, and passing the entrances to
II of all those streets upon which there are ran
roads-the expense OF running this road to be
borne by each company in accordance with the
amount Of benefit received from it; no extra
charge being made for transportation upon II. By
this means every street road would be put in con-
nection with the ferry and steamboat landings,
the Custom House and Post Office, and with all
sister lines. For instance, say that person
should arrive from the country on a steam
beat, or from across the river by the
ferry, and desired to go to the upper
or lower limits Of the city, his baggage consisting
Of only valise. At present he would have to
take cab, at the expense Of dollar, or walk to
the station of the he wished to take, with his
vslise in his hand; no pleasant job, even when it
does not rain. Bat by the rosd l propose, he
could take q car near where he landed, pay five
cents into the box, receive in return check
which would entitle him to transportation on any
line be saw fit to take, to reach which he would
not be necesstated to walk further than across
the street. The accommodation which this road
would afford to the public in bad weather must
also be obvious, and the greatly increased in
come which would surely accrue to the compa-
nies would not only compensate for the expense.
but would add largely to their profits.
Will the presidents of the railroad companies
think this worthy Of consideration! 1 sincerely
hope SO. at
