HIGH FREIGHTS.
NEW YORK, August IA, 1872.

NEW YORK, August IA, 1872.
To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD
In your issue OF this morning you call the alton
ton of our merchants and capitalists to the great
lack OF cheap facilities for bringing grain to our
market, also to the great rivalry which other and
much lesser cities are exerting to get this trade.
1t is well known that the rates OF freight from the
Far West to the metropolis by rail are so enormous
as to exceed In amount the price which tine pro-
Queer realizes for his grain when one-haf this rate
owing partly to the mOnOp0lies to which some OF
our incoming railroads are subjected, and partly to
the inactivity OF our business men to arise In their
might and use their endeav0rs to protect the West
ern shippers, which last should he our pride. for
they are most certainly our friends and those to
whom we look for success in the markets of our
city.
our boards OF trade should have committees
continually upon the alert to obtain the very lowest
possible reghts, making occasional reports OF their
observations and successes to the different orga-
nizatiOns which they represent, and by this means
we should not only benefit the Western producer
and shipper, but alike convince them that we were
attempting to work for their interests. We should
not then be subject to the derisive remarks as to
our utter indifference TO their welfare.
Perhaps but few have become aware OF the i'm
mense Amount OF grain and -four which other cities
have within the past lew years s drawn away from
matter. and all our journals should call public at
tenti0n to this state OF atairs and the immediate
demand Tor this great work-the Niagara ship
canal.
You call attention to the city of oswego. which
has large facilities for handling grain, having ten
immense elevators, with storage capacity OF
100000 bushels and has In past times been very
large shipping port from the lakes to New York
The Canadas are now mOnopozing this OswegO
trade. and 1t all passes through their own canal
the Welland-around Niagara Falls through their
own ports to Liverpool, via Quebec / am told that
in one elevator In OswegO, which last year received
during tho month OF Juno thirty-twO cargOes of
grain, this year received only two cargoes This Is
but an item, but must impress upon your mind the
necessities OF business men of New York looking
about them and exerting themselves to keep what
they have got and increase the Inducements for
Western men to pour the golden grain into our
hands, q,

Kingsbridge road, from Saul's corner to In

rock and go feet OF covering stone for drains were
used on Kingsbridge road during the season.
About four miles of roads, including Macomb's Dam
