War Interest.

The House bill disallowing war
interest on old debts, failed in the
Senate on Friday last by tie vote.
1t seems to us that to deny this four
years Of interest TO those who have
been SO indnlgent as not to have
already collected their debts is rath-
or wrong. Such a bill ought to
have been passed immediately after
the war. But now tire Shylocks
have gotten their money and it
would he very unfair to impose
FL III a bill on those Who have beer
lenient.

The Rate of Interest.

The Virginia Senate on Friday
last "went back" on itself and on
the House, by ENGRAVING on the
House bill an amendment allowing
eight per cent by agreement, but
hitting the forfeiture to the excess
over six. 1t appears to us tl.at if
the House should concur it will
practically make the rate eight per
cent. We have not had an oTpor.
tunity to read the bill, but we can
not see how the Legislature can al
low and yet not allow two per cent
over the old rate. The Vine SAYS
a most remarkable change has come
over the Senate on this subject, as
that body recently favored six and
40 more.

THE LOCAL EXPRESS

The introduction of system Ct
quick aud cheap transportation, which
supersedes the Necessity of those grind
ing monopolies known as EXpres g
Companies is new feature in Rail-
road management.
The Local Express" connected
with the A. NJ. & o. Railroad, and in
augurated by Gen'l Nahona some ten
month ago, has fully vindicated the
wisdom of its conception, and realized
the most sanguine expectations of its
protector. 1t has proved itself fully
competent TO meet all demands made
upon it: and SO rapidly has it grown
in favor that any attempt ut its aboli-
ton would receive the unqualified
denunciation of all, save tie pr euliar
friends of the companies aIrendA allu-
ded to. The Local ) is indeed an in
estin,able blessing, not only in the
dispatch but also in the cheapness
with which it affords transportation
! for all ARTICLES usually forwarded by
Express Companies. Its rates of
charge are about one-half of those
charged by the Southern Express
Company, and I'm point Of dispatch. it
loses nothing by garrison. The
old rate of Sl.25 per. l0W pounds from
Bristol to Lynchburg has been reduc-
ed 70 65 cents. and of $500 per hun
dred from Bristol to New York to
50 10. This is u wonderful difference !!
And it shows how the public have
been imposed upon and Aeeced by the
excessive charges of the old monopoly.
1t was glorious day for the consun-
ers and producers of fresh meats. veg
etables, fruits. oysters and fish, when
the old regime was abolished and the
Local substituted in its place
These luxuries are thus placed in the
reach Of the distant consumer almost
as fresh and almost as cheap as at the
points where they are produced or
caught. If the Lynchburger finds it
TO his interest to buy his breakfast
steak in Bristol, there is no hindrance
in the way OF expensive rates of trans
portation.
Will not other Railroad companies
follow the example of the y. NJ. &
o, road, and adopt similar system
of cheap and exp dit.ou, trangporta-
ton?
The f. Tenn. Va. & Ga. Road and
roads connecting with it might in this
way do an invaluable service to the
trade and commerce Of East Tennes-
see. The climate and soil of this sec
ton are admirably adapted to the pro-
sluction of garden products, fruits and
vegetables that find their best market
i'm the southern cities. Nothing is
wanted to stimulate their production,
but cheap aud expeditions transporta-
ton. Will mt the managers of these
roads take this matter into serious
consideration, and do for East Ten
nessee what Malone Inns done for S.
w. Virginia?

GEN. MAIIONE.S SPEECH

Ina few days we will issue to-onr
readers, in an extra, the speech of
Gen. Malone bcfoi e the Senate com-
nittee on the proposition tosharter
free rail roads throngheut the Com
monwealth. The S4sAject is han
died with an ability which will be
accepted by The yrading community,
as it has been by the Legislature, as
coaefusive of the subject. The fact
that il would at once place the sub
icct beyond the control of the peo-
pie of Virginia is forcibly illustra-
ted Ky the allusion to the finding
bill. The fact that it would give
TO a mighty and corrupt corporation
the power to 50 envelope the state
in its powerful coils that all of its
power would be utterly inadequate
to disengage it therefrom is fully
shown. The fact that it would
lead TO the distraction of property
for those who have done much for
Virginia, by those who have as yet
done nothing and would never do
aught for her development is made
plain. But the most powerful idea
in the speech is the downright de-
monstration that it would thorough
ly paralyze the internal improve
mentinterests Of the commonwealth.
1t wouM ignore the policy of pro,
lection and inaugurate that of de
struction. AS well might tile fed
eral government withdraw its pro
h:hition upon free trade, which
would Immediately crush out those
American manufactures which have
made OFT country independent Of
the world. Our fathers having
planted and ourselves watered, shall
Pennsylvania reap! But these
mighty reasons for the strangula-
ton OF this impudent intruder are
perhaps less patent than another
we shall mention. The Lancaster,
Pa, INTELLIGEScER is our witness
that the Pennsylvanians have made
one honest admission, viz: that they
aim at the monopoly and control of
the THROUGH business. That Jour
nal states that numbers of their
passenger trains thunder through
that town without stopping at al,
and their citizens can only travel Oh
those trains which they chose to
call LOCAL trains. Are Virginians
prepared for this thing! We think
not. -H
