We have received from the president of the New Haven railroad the following let ter: l':ss ED1roHs OF HHARrH AND 9HoME:-On my return from a sunamer' trip, my atten ition is called te an article in your paper, r. eAecting upon this company, and also to -sn order which has been Issued prohibit ing the sale of your paper at the depots and on the trains of this rtal. Gaa
 ll!s' W hile I consider the article in many respects unfair toward the conapany, and unjust to qodr superintendent, who, I know, is laboriug with nntifing energy to meet all the reasouabie wants of the public, still I do not feel disposed to retaliate by en- deavoring to stop the sale of your paper -on our trains and at our depots. | Probably no railroad superintendent ia this eoun- try iabofs with hlmore zeal and fidelity than does Mr. Hoyt to make everything as sat-
 isfactory as possible to the public, and it
 is extremely discoufaging and mortifyiug to man in his position to receive unmer- itedi censnre from the public press. sr -.. o1 {" | regret that you should have found fl advisable to criticise us so harshly as you did, without full knowledge of the facts, and would suggest that hereafter if vyon

 esWs have ievef madee doubt of Che zeal and efficiency Of the Superintendent, but we have quessi ssioned Eif that zeal was not narrowed by Stooa ascrnpulous and exacting devotion to the economic interests of the tcoaporation, to the neglect ofiberal deai- ings with the atrsseling public.
