The Parallel Railroad.

Probably fewofour readers are unaware of the object of the proposed Parallel srail- road. The New York and New Haven
 Railroad Company now have g practical
 monopoly of the freight and passenger
 traffic by rail, between New Eaglapd and the City of New York. How far this Com-
 pany has victimized the public, we cann not say; probably, after the manner of -monopa olies, just about as far as they have sup posed the public would, bsars fThea road oaed| was originally an expeasivs' one ;th@ stock of the Company has been heavily "water-
 ed :" and the Company now have to pay annual ten per cent. dividends on near ten million dollars. The =sdveeates of the proposed measure say they can build "a railroad between New York and New Ha- ven, nearly parallel with theipresent ons, at an expense greatly below what that con cern is costing the public. if not its ownersi They say that the inevitable 1c3aaasse 1caaasseqAHahnf s
 of the building such 9a;read wiH be aigreat reductiou1.i in the tolls on throagia ,traf- fc. besides the deyelope ment of of large local business. ssodr-aNh2s-.1 oEf Io ~s
 We believe that these representations age substan ntialIy rorreetl;; and we would advocate most heartily the passage of a
 General Railroad Act which should alloy the construction'of iust such aiine as8the Parallel men desire; but that is not what they seem to want! E They hage,justl join ea the inanagers ofthe New York 1and New Haven Company m having tue Whol sub jeet of General Railroad I Law pdefnitely postponed. G9nsequently taeyn are iasisin g not for fair play and open conpatlsiosf, but for another 'nbnopoly! What viii tue pnb- lie gain by gran ting sHah La lreqaasta'dThe promoters of bhe inew 1soIe,ne hasetpsvi- dently gone into this business for ths, mo- ney they see iu it. Gfapt taemtp T seaarter aud they wilkseH it to theq old dn compeay, the next moment. if that will bring the most cash into their individual pockets.

ssT On Thursday aud Friday of last week, President Woolsey of Yale, lectured before the Senior class on the Alabama question. He holds that the British gov eernment were justified in issuing their proclamation of neutrality, but negligent in allowing the Alabama to escape, He thinks they are clearly liable for the direct damage resulting from this negligence, i.e.
 for the destruction of property probably to the amount of fifteen millions, but not for the indirect damage to our commerce.
