Louisville has schoolmarm who
whacks her pupils over the head with an
instrument cunningly devised Of leather,
with forked end, which swishes down
upon the face, drawing the blood at every
lick. In extreme cases she lifts the child
from the floor by the ear, and in one case
recently the ear gave way and the rascally
juvenile fell to the floor.

MANY Facts and One Reflection

1t is probable that few of our citizens
appreciate the dangers which threaten them
from the proposed increase of power which
our Assembly is asked to give to the Pc
tersburg Railroad. The advocates of that
proposition have attacked what they call
the Robinson dynasty and have wisely re-
framed from saying anything of themselves,
beyond making vague general cry for
cheap rates and multiplied facilities.
Let us look into this a little.
The very first act of the Ragland man.
| ayers was to raise their rates on local traf-
| tic upward of ten per cent. above those pre-
vailing under the administration of Presi-
dent Collier. A fact of which our readers
may assure themselves by a comparison of
printed tariffs.
Moreover, the local tariffs on this Peters,
burg road, which clamors so for reduced
rates to stimulate production, are not only
in themselves excessive, but they are far
higher than on other roads entering Peters,
burg.
Here is the proof, taken from printed
schedules:
The Norfolk and Petersburg road for 80
miles charges per hundred pounds:
For LIST class 1G cents.
do I'd do IA do
do 3D. do IL do
do 4th do IL do
While for the same distance and same
amount the Petersburg road charges:
For LIST class IS cents.
do I'd do 20 do
do Sd do 30 do
do 4th do 20 do
On the Southside Road for 40 miles the
charges are:
For LIST class 81 cents,
do End do Is do
do 3rd DO 16 do
do 4th do ID do
While the Petersburg road exacts:
For LIST class 80 cents,
do End do 80 do
do 3rd do 26 do
do 4th do u do
Compare now the whole length of the
Petersburg road, 90 miles, with the whole
length, so miles, of that exorbitant despot,
the Seaboard, and we find that the Peters,
burg road charges its patrons as much for
its 81 miles as the Seaboard charges to its
patrons for so miles.
For their schedules, between their respec-
tive termini, stand thus:
