The great Railroad meeti G took place
here on Tuesday last. at the City Hall
and was attended ~ quite large num-
Der Of very good looking, we'll Kept aud
we'll dressed individuals. How much
capital they represented We are unable to
inform you, not having an opportunity OF
looking through their pocket books Ihe
renort of the Committee was read by
fierce stout Old gentleman Of the Fick-
.ick;an style We listened to It with
pr,at attention and when it was Il iSh-
ed we did not SIC airy ctt'r chance Ga
railroad 10 Point Lookout, Point Of Rocks,
Boston, or the Devil, than We did be-
fore the reading Of the far fimsd doc
unept, tina. there has been such
cloud of mystery and secrecy hanging
over ter the last ten days. We eouid hot
help thinking the ~hols report was infen-
ded IS 8 slap at the Loyalty Of Mr. Jno-
" Gnret: and the people Of Baltimore
generally. What the l9ih of April riot
had to do With building thirty or forty
,silroals TO run out Of this city all over
the ci,i}is,d globe and 10 the nearest h1-
81 .tor. -e arc unable 70 discover. We
begin 70 think Il rcj OF: Wears somewhat
Of political cou pi, xion. AS Congress

rylard, IN the way Of rec D-tTucton, We
thought the document might te arranged

on Congress 20 hurry up the 1un, get h'id
Of the State Offices md then selEe The Bal
tiInore and Ohio Railroad As military
nec,ssitv-or a pock,t necessity, We doh
know Which. We are unable TO under
stand Whist could have caused the writer
of the report TO show his teeth st m''
Garrett in such volhsh way. That MIR.

can plsn and build roads and manage
item with such consummate skill as TO
command and moLopoliIe trade and travel
can Be no cause for bitter feeling or per
sopal af.. We would suggest 10 those
who feel SO strongly on this matter that
instead Of attacking MIR. CARROTS loyal
ty and ripping up the 10th Of April riot
TO hold their tongues, 60 10 work and
fight Mr.. G.. with his own weapons. Let
them dive down to the bottom Of thar
rockets, haul cut the greer. backs by the
million. build roads and manage them as
he does. We feel confident that Mr.. 6.
will have not the slightest o. lection to their
laying down half dozen roads from here
TO Baltimore or to any place that they
may be willing or able 10 put down. We
have not the pleasure Of CARROTS &C
auaintauce, we do not own = dollar Of
stock in .ny Of his roads. and when We
travel over Lis lines We have TO pay
our dollars IS other men do, OF get out,
