The Coal TRADE. W hats the reason that
the Lessees Of the Alexandria Canal are so
blind to their own interest, let alone the inter-
est Of Alexandra? Every one connected with
the coal trade kno Us that the advantages of
GEORGETOWN over Alexandria to compete tor the
shipping of coal is in the saving of a few cents
in freight and tolls on this canal. Yet the
canal company persist in the suicidal policy OF
keeping up the tolls to { cents per ton, when,
before the war q cents was considered ample.
Some of the companies which do their business
at Alexandria noag are contemplating moving
back to Georgetown, and if that is once accom-
plished good bye to the trade ever returning
again to its old position here. The direct dit
ference now in favor OF Georgetown IS cents
Der ton which to q company doing q business OF
from IS to 100, 600 tons in a season Is an item
Of Importance. Alexandria could afford to give
Georgetown 4 or 5 cents advantage IN freight
and tolls, but more that that throws the balance
too much in favor Of Georgetown. Would 1t
not be better for this canal to take 4 cents per
ton on 100, 900 tons of coal than E cents on So
600 tons. Some such proposition am credlbly
informed) has been made them but has been
declined. 1t was an evil day for Alexandra
| when the city was compelled to hand over this
public work to a company OF spectators who
| are so blind as not to see their W interest In
this matter. IL
