The Chesapeake and Ohio Company have
behaved very badly about this matter
Enquirer.
We know that the disposition Of the En-
ou,rer is not to be unjust; but IN this ill.,
stance it has permitted prejudice or passion
to get the better of an inclination to be fair.
In what respect have the Chesapeake and
Ohio Company stbehaved badly? They
have not asked Richmond to build the tun-
mel. Their communication to the City
Council asked for the right Of way to the
river. That was all.
The people of Richmond seeing the Her.
culean nature of the undertaking OF the
company, and the vast sums OF money they
were expanding in pcriecting their connec-
tions stwardly-inspired with admlra-
ton and qualification at the manner IN
which they were pressing to completion
work which without them there was little
prospect would be finished for twenty years
to come---felt that 1t would be q handsome
and proper act in Richmond TO take holo
of the terminus here and give 1t shape and
CaciIitv-that shape aud facility that should
in the best manner mature and perfect the
advantages of the port of Richmond for
shipment. With this view they considered
the question, and determined That the tun-
mel was the best way both for Richmond
and the railroad-but especially for Rich
mnnd--to conduct the road to the river.
Aud they further determined that it would
be the safest course for Richmond at once
to make liberal appropriation to its con-
structlon.
That is oil. The measure is wise for us,
and it has not been pressed nor rudely
forced upon us. The company has not be-
hayed badly, and there is no ground for
The charge. We trust our ncishbor will
not manifest illiberal sentiments towards Il
company which is accomplishing so much
more than we ever dreamed OF for our adj
vantage. 1t deserves better of Richmond
and at the hands Of her press than that.

General Amnesty.
