sufiyir~inia Transportation Charges.
4 resolution of inquiry as to our improper
railway transportation charges seems TO nave
boon aIopted by the House of Delegates and
referred to the proper committee OF that
hodv. That question is one Of the greatest
Importance to almost every interest OF this
commonwealth ; ard without the passage OF
an effective law to govern all our trtlisporta-
lion COMPANIES alike. and to compel, on Their
parts. q system Of uniform rates per ton per
mile for Ike serctce Utdcr Mc'F tocdS ana
tbyO,i1h tariffs, we cannot expect to sue
coed in schemes Of Immigration, commerce,
manufactures. or agriculture. y thorough
investigation Of freight SchednteS ana close
examination OF the transportation masters OF
the companies of this State by 4 committee
of the LEGISLATURE will make manifest the
fact that the present system OF long price,
per ton per mile for short hau!s, ana Slor'
prices per ton per mile Tor long hallS, WORKS
damage to all centre points on through nue.
and that with our poor soil ana want OF Ctli
tai we cannot reasonably hope to be ahle
to compete successfully i'll agriculture or fo1
immigration against the rlch-landed " est,
nor in commerce nor manufactures against
the abundant capital Of the East. VIII MOI
the General Assembly recognize the waning
condition of our State. and at least look into
this, perhaps, the most important Of all the
questions relating to our common veal, aho
do what simplc-nindedj usticc demands: Let
| us be- lust to ourselves before dispensing sllcl
advantages to our agricultural rivals in thu
West and Northwest, and 10 DIR commercial
competitors in the East.
The newspapers report such movements
or action in New York in Ohio, in Illinois
and in Missouri, and Il subcommittee OF tn
| United States Congress has been charged
with the duty of booking into the subject
| with power to send for persons and papers.
1t is hoped the moving member OF the
House Of Delegates will vigorously prosecute
the question before the committee and OF
the floor of the House. Blue RIDGE.

A GERMAN DIsCovERY.-When tie
Germans are scientific, then they are so
completely and fundamentally. The
forcthought and thoroughncss shown in
their recent great invention of fly. pa
per" elucidates those high qualities in a
remarkable degree. Without further
prelude we may state that this newly in
vented fy-paper is covered with nitro
glycerire, glue and molasses. The flies,
attracted by molasses, aight and are
stuck fas+ by the glue. Should any get
away, they proceed to rub their legs t. g.
gether in ecstasy, when the friction of
heir own skins causes the nitro-glycerine
adhering to their feet and limos to ex-
plode, blowing them to atoms.
