Wheeling and the d. & o. Railroad

wheeling and the u. d u. Railroad
From the Cincinnati Gazette.
The city Of Wheeling is making loud
complaints OF the management OF the Bal
timoru q Ohio railroad, which, since the
completion Of the bridge over the Ohio
river at Parkersburg, has taken of two
fast trains running from TINT city and
now start them from ParkcrsburE, and
the trains connecting with them at Graf.
ton stnrt from Columbus and run through
BenwOol, without touching Wheeling
The Wheeling lNTELLldENCER claims
that Wheeling ia now on II switch, and Il
certainly does look very much rs Il this
was lis position. But Is the fault entirely
with the Baltimore 4 Ohio railroad, and
ought the citizens Of Wheeling to expect
that road to sacrifice It's interests and its
ability to more thoroughly accommodate
its great East and West traffic to the local
accommodation Of Wheeling? We are
well aware that where great corpora
ton possesses q monopoly Of the business
of any one place that II Is disposed to use
it without much reference to the best in.
tcrCst Of such place, but we believe that
the management of the d. Il o. Failroad
will furnish full facilities for the business
Of Wheeling, although that city can no
longer enjoy the advantages derived from
being the terminus Of that road. The
lNTELGOENCER suggests the REMEDY Of
building u short connection with the
Pennsylvania railrond ut Pittsburg. II
this quarrel should result in waking up
Wheeling to the necessity Of more raii.
road facilities, and squirting her up to OBJ
tain them, i would probably be the best
thing possible for her future growth and

Concerning Government Bonds, Old
and New.

/ ""A %N~"N
MGssrs. Fisk y Hatch, Of New York,
have issued a circular the object of which
is to induce the national banks to ex.
change their Five Twenties for the new
iiyes, Some Of the reasons urged are The
following, which win interest others as
well as the banks
"tTsi-The exchange is only a question
of time. All Five.TWenties, without ca.
Ception, will soon have to be exchanged,
and n longer delay may compel the Ma.
tiOnal Banks TO put up with the Al or 4
per cents, II is useless to disguise the
fact that there is prevailing belief, which
is constantly gaining strength, that the
banks are having TOO good a thing o! i"
and that all [, S. Bonds held as security
for circulation should be ordered to be
changed for the A per cents, except the A
and o per cents already deposited, The
early passage ofan act Of Congress Tor this
purpose would not he surprising, and
would be popular with the people,
Sc0Hdly-There is no certainty that
any more Five per cents will be issued
except with equal amounts OF the Al and
