THE PACIFIC RAILROAD DENOUNCED The
Railroad roundly for announcing that the pas
senger fare will be ten cents mile, Its sug-
gestions seem to be just. We quote:
There is no excuse for any such rates of fare
In the first place, the road has not cost the
the money of the nation. The Central Pacific
Railroad Company has built six hundred and
ninety miles of road, and the government has
issued to it bonds to the amount of $23, 1854 900.
1t has received in addition donation of public
land which at this moment is worth in cash
$4,000, ,000 making total subsidy Of $43, 1884,
900, or over $62, 900 per mile. In addition to
this the company has issued bonds to the
amount of $23, ,000O00 for which it has mort
saxed the road. The stockholders have in one
selves very large portion of this sum, perhaps
$4,000 COO or $15,000,000. This distribution of
pIofiLs has taken place even before the compile
Jion OF the road. In the meantime the COM
pany has T. fused or neglected to pay the inter-
est on its bonds. The road itself has been con-
structed ia a very loose manner, and the money
which the managers have divided should have
oeen retained to put the track in a substantial
condition. Having literally made away with
the bounty of the nation, the managers, assu
ming that they have monopoly, and that
travel and traffic must pass pass over their line,
now propose to charge ten cents per mile, in
gold, for passenger fare over their share of the
road. 1t is an outrage and an extoriion to
VII ch the American people will not submit.
1t is the strongest aid which has yet been given
o the scheme of building another road, and if
t shall lead to an intervention by the general
government in the affairs of both companies.
md the enforcement Of every condition at
ached to the grants of land and of bonds, it
will prove of great public service. The coun-
try knows that it has been robbed in the
cost of constructing this road, and that it
) dsposed to forget; but If the robbery is to
. a continuous one it may be as well, in taking
measures TO put etop to it, to overhaul affairs
rom the beginning, and have accounts adjust

OGDENsBURG AGAIN. Buffalo seems in dan
,er of being removed several hundred miles
East. The anticipated building OF the Niagara
Ship Canal and a conviction that the great
route of the future for freight transportation
% the Atlantic is that which gives the longest
water and the shortest land carriage, has
tarned all eyes toward Ogdensbure. Portland
aud Boston are already competitors for the
honor of the new emporium's hand in COM
nercial copartnership. Portsmouth, N. H.,
has suddenly entered the lists, as appears
from the following paragraph which we find
10 the Chronicle: .eG
A movement is on foot to secure charter
from the Legislature at the present session, in
cooperating the above named Railrord Com
pany The proposed charter provides that the
Portsmouth and Dover, Dover and Winnipise-
ogee, and road from Alton Bay to the Weirs
n Meredith, shall be consolidated as the Ports
mouth and Ogdensburg Railroad. II the p. &
D. r. r. refuses to accept the provisions of the
charter within one year, then the charter OF
The P. & 0. r. B. shall be null and void. If
the d. & W. R. r. reiutes to consolidate, then
the T. & o. r. r. has the right of way over
their road.
But while others are talking and projecting,
the Portland and Ogdensb lrg Company are
working and will soon be fairly under way
with the construction of their road.

Fiuance-A Word DIore.

1t is only in the abstract, and from the stand
point of what we have believed to be better
plan that we have criticized the new Secreta-
ry's financial policy. In the actual situation,
for which he is no more responsible than other
of his former fellow members of Congress, as
we have already said, there was little else he
could do besides buy with his surplus gold the
bonds of the United Skates, for Congress had
taken from him the power to redeem the de-
mand notes. The only other thing left open
was to accumulate gold. But the accumula-
tion of gold, with no indication or declaration
of what was to be done with it, while it was
thriftless throwing away of six or eight millions
year in interest, had no tendency to
strengthen the currency, and depreciate the
premium on gold, because there was no pledg-
ing by Congress of the fund of gold to the fu-
ture redemption of greenbacks, that is the
very thing which Congress most unmstakably
refused to do. So that the treasury accumula-
ton Of gold was mere miserly boarding,
which made gold scarce and dear, in the mar
ket. The New York Tribune saw this, and
began persistent denunciation OF it as prac-
tsed by McCulloch and continued by Bout
well. Its repeated censures at last had their
effect, and Mr.. Boutwell,, hampered as he was
by the law, buys what of the government debt
he can. The Tribune applauds. though its ad-
vice is only followed in part, for it has been
Just as clamorous for immediate specie pay
ment which the new policy Indefinitely post
pones and makes impossible, as it has been
against boarding gold The obvious objection
to the Secretary's policy is that it strengthens
the national credit only VI here it has never been
assailed, and weahens it where it is really en-
dsDgered; it aggravaies the already too great
advantages of preferred creditors; it adds to
the interest paid them, besides exemption from
taxation, the increased premium on gold: it
enhances the speculative value of government
securities, thereby giving them preference
over all other forms of loan and enhancing
the current interest on money; it is virtual no.
tice to the holders of demand notes, that the
government never intends to pay them, while
itcan speculate in buving up its bonded debt
at a discount on the gold value, and thus il
gives gold-gambling and speculation a new
lease Of life to the encouragement of produc-
ton and legitimate trade

A CURIOUS CASE OF NATURAL VICIOUS

age q beautiful, married said to be the child OF
a wealthy father,who was sentanced,a f-w days
since, in the Court of General Sessions. in
New York Tor the crime of grand larceny.
Her father simply requested the court ito do
something for her," which the court did by
sending her to State Prison. She has Leen
there once before. She has been once in the
PeniIentary for the same offeDse. and eloped
from that prison with the keepers son. This
is certainly remarkably checkered career to

simply "vicious" One more fact completes
the stat meut. The reporter informs US that

The ENcLIsH PRESS ToNiNo DowN.-Cable
dispatches show that the arrival of Mr. Mot
ley has acted as a very efficient sedative upon
British nerves. So far as the cable gives us
any idea of the nature of Mr.. Motley's re-
marks in reply to the various addresses that
have been presented to him, ne has given to
the English but slender pretense for SO de-
cided modification of their tone. We quote
the leading papers:
The Daily News says that it is glad to be
able to conclude from the speech OF Mr.. MOL
ley that he has not come without speclnc IN
structions, and that it is satisfactory TO nnd
that on the question Of the relations oet"een
the Utited States and England fresi,ent
Grant has a policy of coDcilia,ion ana peace.
One clear gain likely to result from Mr.. MOT
Lewis nresence in London With definite insiruc-
tiOps from his government VIII De me removal
of d ficult question from the region OF uroi-
ficial debate and rhetorical exaggeration into
that of a business statement and diplomatic
negotiations. The English people are content
to leave our side of the matter in the hands OF
Lord Clarendon, and the country will accept
any plan OF settlement which he and Mr.. Mot
lev may arrange, and should be glad to be
equally sure Of its acceptance by the Senate of
the United States.
The Star publishes highly complimentary
article in which it says that the character OF
Mr.. Motley is in itself a sufficient indication
that the United States will treat the pending
subject honoraby, while the presence of Mr..
Bright in the EngHsh cabinet with Mr. Glad
stone at the head of the ministry constitutes
an equally sufficient guarantee that England
loves peace and that determination TO be just
animates the ministry.
The Times understands that no new demand
has been addressed to England. Mr. Motley
enters upon his duties without any prospect OF
controversy, but at the same tina says that the
English government should examine any new
propos ais and see il they promise just and
equitable solution: IT the neutrality procla-
nation is made the subject Of grievance we
are bound to listen to the arguments adduced
though it is improbable that any good purpose
would be served by raising such discussion.
The Pail Mall Gazette, as usual, has snob-
bish article on the subject, boasting that
America has backed down before British
pluck aud that under these circumstances the
arrival of the new minister is of small impor-
tance and the best result they anticipate from
Mr.. Motley's mission is that his duties will af.
lord him sufficient leisure to prosecute his his
torical studies.

DULL TIMES IN LIvERPooL.-Froma an inter-
esting private letter, recently received in this
city from Liverpool, written by well-inform-
ed gentleman residing there, we are permitted
to make the following extract:
All branches of business in this country, i'm
porting and manufacturing, shipnwning and
shopkeeping, are one and all to-day equally
deprrsse aud unless it be the brokers don t
believe any firm is covering expenses. Even
during the crisis OF 1866 business was better, SO
far as possibility to sel produce was concerned
No one Gems to have entertained the remotest
conception of the advent of such state Of
stagnation, and while hear no one attempt
to assign cause for it, no more can hear of
any of my friends that can feel their way to
amendment. The consuming powers of the
country would seem to have gone backwards;
they say there is almost no demand for manu-
factured goods and, contrary 20 all precedent,
this untoward state of affairs has come to pass
with cheap bread and, till lately, with cheap
money. No doubt the 1866 crisis brought ruin
aud desolation 10 many thousands, and though
the money so lost was not lost altveether to
the country, yet it was lost throughout the
consuming population, whose resources have
thus been impaired, and went to swell the cof-
fers of such men as Rothschild, and their ex-
penditure or consumption has not been there
by increased for the good of trade.
