ou- Kai,road-An Infamous Proposition

a writer in the CHAELEsTo NEwa. over tho
signture OF Taxpayer, under hypocritica
pretence las it seems to us. OF promoting the
interest of the State, urges the compulsory
sale OF several railroads, among them the
Greenyie ard Columbia Road: The latter
road under good management is now DONG
remarkably well, and has commenced to pay
off interest OH The State guaranteed bonds. Yet
this writer would force Il sale to damage i~rgc
number OF bondholders- in the aSS-
gresate-for no other purpose, we verify believe,
Than that OF plundcring the unfortunate and
to enable some designing and hcart!ess CAPT.
talists and spectators TO seize the road for
their own miserly purposes OF greed. 1t Is
very probable If the Grecnviilc road was forced
to sale, that the TowE OF Grecnville would actu-
ally be deprived of it altogether, as the purely
selfish spirits who would be active Ill forcing
the sacrifice might conclude it would be Il
saving Of few dollars, to shorten the road, no
tellin. how much. Nc are satisfied that there
are some men, and capitalists 100, so utterly;
selfish that they would, to add one hunderd
dollars to their tens of thousands OF income,
shorten the road down to Frog Level. The
writer in the NEWS appeals to the Legislature
to MD h1s schemes by suitable acts. We 90
not believe that the Legislature, il it has the
power, is inclined to respond to such vile
proposition, endangering heavy loss 10 the
State itself, ard smashing ruin 10 many cltlzens,

while the people of Virginia do not believe
that the negroes, in their uneducated condl-

the expression of public opinion in the recent
national election, and in restoring harmony
and union, they are willing to accept universal
suffrage, coupled with universal amnesty.

THE RAILROID QUESTION.
TO THE EDITOR OF 1HE NEWS.

TO THE EDITOR OF BE NEWS.
We have read with some surprise an article
which appeared in your paper OF the 2SSh ult.,
on ssThe State and our Railroad System, sign
ed "Tax-payer."
The writer sets out with the complaint that
the State and the City Of Charleston have in
curred at least onc-half of their debt by sub
sctlptions to railroads. 1t might We'll be qucs-
toned whether the State or tue City of Charles
ton could have confc.reda greater benefit upon
it's citizens than they have done by their wise
and liberal policy towards railroads, and we
shall certainly not attempt to re-write the cpl
taphs Of those departed worthless VINO have left
us this legacy. There may have been misman-
agement; there will always be discomfort with
any management; but this arises perhaps
ottener from the constitutional infrmity of the
grumbler than from any fault OF the railroad
or its managers. 1t has been the history of too
many large and meritorious enterprises at the
South, both public and private, to struggle
through years of toll and anxiety, only to be
sacrificed at last to some unworthy prejudice.
1t is scarcely valid objection to an iustltu-
ton or corporation, good otherwise in itself,
that it's bonds were bought during the var
with Confederate money; but this, so tar as
the interest of the writer in this road is con-
cerned, is not the case. Some OF US ut least in
vested in these boads when the road was brst
COmmeuCeQ, anu We ulu IL COuSCleutiouSiS, W
aid an enter prise which we believed would con-
fer benefit both upon the city and the State,
and We protest against being sacrificed to ap-
pease the pique or prejudice OF any one.
The editorials OF rHE NEWS, Oh the subject
of the Savannah and Charleston Railroad, have
not been answered., and il the majority CT the
Legislature can and will take the trouble to
read them, they will sco what Tax ypayer has
failed to see that the aid solicited for the COM
pletion of this road from tho Legislature is not
to increase the liability of the State either di-
rect CT contingent, but to enable the company
to complete the road,a ,and thereby confer avast-
ly increased value upon a security row in .
most unsatisfactory condition. We know very
little of the plans or purposes Of the Boald OF
Directors of the Savannah and Charleston Rail-
road Company, but VIC are incllued TO think
that Northern capita! will not be intimidatcG
or discouraged by the course thoy will pursue,
if their memorial is granted By the Lcgisla-
ture; indeed it has been intlmatcl to US that
there are parties who will readily undertake
the completion of the road TO the advantage Of
the State, to the. best interests OF the city, to
the great convenience Of the travelling COM
munity, and to the infinite satisfaction OF those
whose money helped to build the road;
