d Consolidation, What Wrongs are
Committed in thy Popular Name!
[FrOm the Norfolk Journal OF yesterday.

From the Norfolk journal or yesterday.
Let one word OF censure be expressed in re-
gard to the Southside railroad management
and the raw head and bloody bones Of the
Baltimore aud Ohio railroad are paraded out
to fright the souls of poor Virginians. Let US
put on our spectacles and look at the facts.
What is the charge against this forelgn cor
poration? That it controls the Orange and
! Alexandria railroad. and seeks to carry trade
through and from Virginia, over this road to
| Baltimore. How is this done? BY cheaper
ing freights to Baltimore. This, We under
stand, is the head and front OF their offending.
Yet, Tell it not 10 Gath Publish it not in
the streets of Askalon - The Southside roads
to. day arc carrying freight through ana from
Virginia, 10 Baltimore, cheaper than it can 60
by the Orange and Alexandra railroad line
IF carrying freight through and from Viz
| pinia to Baltimore is hostility to our dearest
Interests, who is the greater offender the presi-
| dent of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad or the
president of the Southside railroad?
Consistency, thou art a jewel.
Let US wipe our spectacles and look ct some
statistics. .
Turn to pages 81 and IS of tho tenth annual
report Of the Norfolk and Petersburg railroad
company. We there find that there was re
ceived over the Norfolk and Petersburg railroad
from its own and connecting Southside lines
during the fiscal year ending September 30,
1868 For Norfolk, G,94l ,909 pounds of
freight ; Tor Baltimore, 5,554,013 pounds of
freight.
Behold the change in the second year Of con-
soiidated management.
The following receipts over The soushslde
line Tor 1869, We fiod ii the Richmond wing,
an organ of the Southslde management;
For Norfolk, 4.530, j9l. pounds Of freight.
For Baltimore, G,7l5, CSC pounds of freight.
Showing a loss to Norfolk OF one third of her
business, if the statistics Of the Wing are
correct.
o consolidation, what wrongs are committed
in thy popular name!
