THE RAILROAD PROBLEM.

As one of the centralizing signs of
the times, we publish in full this morn
ing the telegraphic report of the argu-
ment of the House Committee for Con-
gressiOnal action IN regulating railroad
rates. To regulate commerce Is one
thing, to fix freight charges is not ex-
actly the same thing. The Federal
Constitution authorizes Congress to
regulate commerce with foreign ma
tions, and with the Indians. But who
wolld dream of asking Congress to
regulate ocean fares from New York to
Liverpool, or freights to Bombay, or the
price of whisky to a Comanche
Indian? The House Committee cite
numerous authorities for the right to
regulate commerce between the States;
but when they come to prove that re-
gulating commerce means fixing the
charges of common carriers, their au-
thorities become few and misty. The
argument of public highways, in con-
nection with the States right of emf
nent domain, is rather against the
committee. Wherever the State has
exercized the eminent right Of domain
in favor of a railroad, the State
would seem to be the party
vested with eminent sovereignty over
the railroad. The citation from Judge
Cooley is equally ineonclusive. 1t is
true that steamboat companies, al
though generally chartered by States,
have always been subject to Congress
sional regulation; but we have yet to
learn of any law fixing river frelghts
from Nashville TO anywhere. As to the
question of expediency, We have III pre-
vious articles shown the impossibillty
of making a national law uniform and
lust at the same time. The House Com
mittee PROFOUND a series ofconundrums
about theresults of different legislation
in diffei ent States. Wemight repeat q
similar series in connection with the
differences Of State laws on the sub
iect of marriage-but would that be
any argument for Congress to enact
national laws regulating marriage
The committee assert that it has been
proven that State legislation cannot
control through lines. They
haven't heard Yet of the
Legislatures Of iowa, Minnesota and
Wisconsin comforting with each other
to secure uniform legislation. Thefact
is, these great monopolies have sprung
up only in the past decade under tho
shadow of Radicalism. They present {
question entirely new, which the States
have not yet had time to tackle, anC
nothing has been proven yet, except
the pressing need for reform.

sudden death of the celebrated Siamese
Twins, Saturday morning, the 18th, at their
residence at Mount Airy, in Surrey county,
Y. c. Chang was partially paralyzed last
fall, since which time he has been fretful,
very much debilitated and strongly adj
dicted to drinking liquor as 4 means Of al
leviating his sufierings. He had been quite
feeble for several days, so much so As tocon-
fine the brothers to bed. Friday night Cnang
became worse and expired suddenly about
1 O'Clock Saturday morning. Eng became
so terribly shocked that he rayed wildly for
awhile. This attack was followed by what
seemed to be a deadly stupOr, and in two
hours, it is supposed. from the death of
Chang, Eng breathed his last. The wives
and families of the twins are in the deepest
grief, the children, many Of whCm are deaf
mutes, expressing their sorrow i'll the most
pitiful manner.

Mr.. Maynard, from the Committee on
Rules, reported q new rule providing that
all motions to suspend the rules, except to
90 into committee Of the whole, shall, be-
fore being submitted TO the House, be
seconded by majority as in the case Of the
previous question:
The proposition gave rise to considerable
discussion, the new rule being advocated by
some as a means of preventing the House
from being forced to vote by yeas and nav
on buncOmbe resolutions, and being op-
posed by Others as an infringement on the
constitutional rights of the minority, which
would be thus cut of from the paVOu TO
haze q vote taken OF propositions emanat-
ing from it.
After an hours discussion, Mr.. Maynard
moved the previous question, but the House
refused to second it and the discussion was
resumed, HesSrs. Dawes and Butler, of
Massachusetts, occupying most of the time
in a personal debate.
