A Correction.

Mr.. F. B. Sanborn, of the Springfield
ReDu5ZScan, writes US that the statement
that "he pretended to have obtained the
q" information which led to his disclos-
cures from the attorneys engaged
ssagainst the managers and trustees . of
the Vermont Central Railroad, is false
and without a shadow of foundation.
And inasmuch as we published the state
ment in that form, we feel it would be
only Justice to Mr. Sanborn to give his
denial. We found the statement in some
of our State exchanges, and published 1t
as found, and we gladly take occasion to
correct the error, so far as we can, by
giving the disclaimer of Mr.. Sanborn.

RUNAwAY.-As Capt. Hitchcock and
Mr.. Dan. P. Peabody, of Pittsford, were
out riding together, on Monday, solicit
ing subscriptions for fund for repair
ing the Methodist church, they met with
quite an adventure, which, happily, had
no serious results to the gentlemen,
though their escape may be considered
aim st miraculous. They had stopped
to water the horse, a strong, high
spirited animal, which they had to drive
with a double chain bit, and as the ami
NAL would not drink with the bit in his
mouth, Mr.. Hitchcock removed it and
stoed at his head while he drank. Look
ing back the horse saw Mr. Peabody in
the buggy, and thinking something was
wrong dashed away, knocking Mr..
Hitchcock down and bruising him Sc
verely. Mr. Peabody jumped out and
thus escaped any noticeable injury. The
horse ran about two miles, completely
demolishing the wagon.

Danger of Carrying Concealed Weapons.

The Evansville (Ind.) journal is respon-
sibe for the following.
"There is absolutely no safe way to carry
pistol except to carry it without charge.
A young man lost his wife, recently, by
trusting to the directions of friend who
told him how he could carry pistol with
out danger"
"His Mary Jane resided some distance
from the city, and he had great horror of
dogs, so he put his revolver in the hip
pocket of his Sunday clothes, one evening,
when he started to see her. The prospec-
tive mother-in-law met him at the door and
told him to take the rocking chair, and as
he did SO, the report Of firearms caused the
old lady to scream and fall to the floor,
while fire in the rear claimed Charles
Henry's attention, and consumed a portion
of his best doesk in smalls.' The old lady
swooned the girl ran in, forgetting her
disordered dress and hair, and followed her
mothers example. The old man and his
double-fsted boys ran in, and, seeing moth
er and daughter lying on the floor, went for
that young man, and he went through the
window, carrying sash and glass with him
as he went. A big dog, aroused by the
noise, made for the fugitive, who in his
turn made for the city, about mile, and a
half or two miles distant, emptying his re-
volver at the dog as he went. The dog was
dead for that young man in more than one
sense; for he dares not approach the house
now, lest the old man may revenge the loss
of his dog on him. The old man says he
will never forgive the murderer of his dog.
If any one asks that young man how he
likes Mary Jane, he says that her nerves
are too delicate for country girl, and be-
trays an anxiety to drop the subject but
he coniided TO friend that in sitting down
the hammer of his revolver caught upon
the chair, and it was in that way dischar-
ged, whoreupon that house and his clothes
became too hot for him."

A Movement In Congress to Regulate
Railroad Charges.

Resolutions offered by Mr. Stewart. OF
Nevada, in the Senate, with regard to
regulating rates of fare and transportation
on railroads between the States, and in
structing the Committee on the Judiciary
to inquire into authority OF Congress on
the subject, have been adopted and referred
to the committee. 1t is under the
provision of the Constitution which au-
thorizes Congress to regulate commerce
among the several States that these reso-
lu.ions were offered. is to tc hoped the
Judiciary Committee will thoroughly in
vcstigate this matter and propose the leg
islatlon needed. The railroads have grown
to be stupendous monopolies, and tax the
people OF the whole country and of all
classes more heavily than the Federal
Government can venture to tax them. a
railroad that costs twenty millions inila;cs
its stock to forty, fifty or sixty millions
and then demands fares from the travelling
public and rates Of freight from our farm
ers and merchants 10 pay interest on the
inflated or watered stock. This is 4 more
burdensome and inisuitous tax than the
Government imposes, and goes far 10 re-
tard the development and business of the
country. The railroads, like the great
rivers, are the arteries of commerce among
States, and Congress has, no doubt, the
power 10 regulate their charges. We
know Of no more important and necessary
measure than this of Mr. Stewart, which
has been referred to the Conmittee on the
Judiciary. and We hope that Congress vii
act upon it at an early day.
