FREE railroads seem to scare our esteemed
contemporary, the Richmond Wing, but surely
without reason. The present system results in
crushing charges for passengers and frelghts, and
almost any change would be for the better
So1HhSide FiTqinidn.
The two intelligent and t~horoughly.i in
formed gentlemen conducting The South
side Virginian have correctly characterized
the opposition to the free railroad law, now
before the General Assembly, by denomi-
mating it a ''scare." OF all the lrightful
bugaboos that ever stalked in the
brain of human folly, this is
the most supremely ridiculous. IL
is used just at this time, however, with no
small effect on the old Bourbon element Of
the State. It (the aforesaid clement sees
this bugaboo stalk, and its soul (what IT.
tie there is of i) is most horribly alright
ed. Virginia, according to this stalking
bugaboo, is to lose all that grand badge of
state sovereignty-almost the only one
now left her-known as the " right of
eminent domain" if this most iniquitous
law is passed.
And, then, that other and more terrible
"scare," affrighting the souls of all the
weakened Gaseous, known as "Tom
Scott" is not only spurred, booted, and
thoroughly armed cap-apie, but set on a
stalking horse Of the hugest proportions,
and paraded through the newspapers of the
State as a bugaboo of the first water.
What this terrible Tom Scott wants is to
gobble up all the "eminent domain" of
Virginia, and leave her the most naked, be-
reft, and thoroughly forlorn of all the poor
down-trodden states of the Union !! Was
there ever anything so perfectly frightful /?
But we have already shown that a state
cannot part with its right of eminent do
main IN or TO one foot of its soil Cf ten
times as sacred as that of the sacredest oil
all things--the g sacred soil =" Of Virginia.
except it be to a sovereign pooer; and we
have yet to learn that Tom Scott is more
mighty and potential than the Autocrat o.
all the Russias, since he tthe Autocrat
is no sovereign power" at all, but only
the representative of such power-the tenn
porary custodian of its right of eminent
domain.
But this great eminent domain '~'scare'
is the very thing that will defeat the FREE
railroad law, if its fate is to be defeat
And yet the supremest humbug eve
started is this hue-and-cry about /" eminen
domain" If Tom Scott, or any othe
man, were to put down ten thousand mile
of railroad in Virginia, he would no
get the right of eminent domain
to one foot of her sacred soil. Wit
a State tax of one per cent. on the capita
stock and floating debt of his ten thousan'
miles of railroad Gf built would pay tn
interest on the present State debt, an,
yield a surplus sufficient to meet the entir
principal at the end of thirty-four years
and that without compelling the State t
lift a finger except in the way of annual.
collecting such tax, which it could do at
cost not exceeding a single dimes draush
upon the public treasury.

THE GENET CHASE.

The Sheriff was yesterday at his office and re.
NAMED there up to four in the evening, when he
went to his home in Manhattanv1lle. Mr.. Judson
Jarvis, the Sherlff's Fdus Achates, also the
office. 1t was expected that something definite
would be ascertained during the day as to Genet's
Whereabouts, but II anything definite was ascer-
tanned the Sheriff did not deem it polite to let the
reporters get wind or the information. The same
rumors as to the ex-Senators flight which were
noticed In yesterdays HERALD were in circulation
yesterday, with the usually highly coaored .addi-
tional particulars;r but the Sheriff was as dumb
as an oyster as to whether any one Of them had
any foundation in TACT. A ridiculous rumor was
prevalent during the evening, at the Fifth Avenue
easct that, that tne , snerIn had peg rom the
with by Judge Daniels should he not be able py
Monday next to produce the runaway in Court. A
HERALD reporter ascertalned tnat the rumor had
been started first as joke by wag OF a politician
who exclaimed aloud, as ne and a lew friends were
passing out OF the doorway through the crowd of
lOungers that usually air their new clothes on the
nearby Sidewalk swell, never thought Sherifr
Brennan would run away as he has.v 1t is need
less TO state that this remark was soon afterward
quoted on all sides among the l0ungers as '.the
latest news about the Genet case and that as II
lore midnight there was some wseacre who could
have told Mr. Brennan himself. II he did not know
him personally that he had seen the Sheriff take
the cars for "parts UNKNOWN Mr.. Brennan Will
be down to his oflice this morning at his usual
early.bird hour, Notwithstanding the loungers.
