R.Ir.rr.Y MANAGEMENT.

Many have regarded the Germans as
nation Of dreamers, but their success
in dealing with Bonaparte and France
in their late war, and in their public
schools and railways, is changing the
opinion of the outside world. Welearn
from the SIesiGa Gazette that the rail
way department for the empire has re-
Gently adopted new set of rules to be
laid before the Federal council for APP
proval, to regulate the conveyance Of
goods and persons, and for the profes-
sional training Of engineers and others.
In order thoroughly to discuss the still
more important question Of the securi-
ty Of the lives and limbs Of the travel
ing public, a conference is now being
held In the rooms Of the railway depart
ment Of the Ministry Of Commerce at
Berlin. This conference which held its
first meeting on Thursday. was con-
voked by the Minister of Commerce to
consider ali the various questions con-
nected with the safety of passengers.
The cooperation Of the directors Of
the various lines was invited. and
a programme drawn up in advanced
shows the general character Of the
anticipated discussions. The pro-
gramme embraces thirty-two separate
qaestions, which are divided into four
leading categories: l. Works on the
line and at the stations. Under this
are included the construction Of
switches, the means Of repairing them,
and their maintenance and control ,.
Signal systems, with a view to increas-
ed security, particularly stopPage sig
mails IN the possible case Of Interrupt
ton Of telegraphic communication 3.
Means Of control. Here will be con-
sidered questions as TO the brakes, pre-
cautions to prevent wagons that are
stationary from being removed by the
wind, the possibility Of prohibiting
certain locomotives in fast travelling in
express trains, the control of the rate
of speed, the nature of the goods,
wagons, and the avoidance of accidents
in coupling carriages. 1. Manage
ment. Under this head viii specially
be considered how far the defective
training Of the officials is responsible
for accidents, and What changes in
their education might be adopted; how
far the overworking of officials has con-
to accidents, and 4 number of
similar points.
1t is close and thorough study of
any bushes matter, with practice, that
brings Improvement, safety and ulti-
mate perfection. Railways have grown
up to be most important public insti-
buttons, in the care encouragement of
which human life and property are
deeply concerned.

IT has been apparent from the first
that the farmers movement in the West
against railroad monopoly would event.
ualiy assume broader ground. The de-
velopments of the last two or three
weeks 20 4 considerable way to sustain
this position. The Ne5g York EUeniRg
Post recognises this fact as follows:
THE farmers, if We may judge from
the proceedings Of their convention IN
Illinois, aye getting wiser with time.
They are beginning to discern the real
causes of their distress. At the outset
they laid it all to the railroads, which,
as oppressive monopolies, they proposed
to hand over to the Government for
discipline and correction. But now
they see that the railroads are not the
only offenders. Indeed, in their reso-
lutions the railroads are scarcely men,
toned, while the tariff, political par
ties. politicians, unjust taxation, and
an ill-regulated currency, come IN for n
due share Of condemnation"

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-Articles of
impeachment in the case of Judge Bus
teed, of Alabama, viii be prepared and
presented by the week after next. 1t
is thought the charges will be that he
has never been, and is not now, resi-
dent of Alabama. that he is guilty of
receiving a bride, the specification be-
ing that he was paid fifty thousand dol
lars for throwing the Meridian Railroad
into bankruptcy, and that he has ap-
propriated public funds to his own use.
IN that on one occasion he procured the
payment of a thousand dollars of fines
and penalties, the property of the
United States, In the hands of the
United States Marshal, to settle a suit
brought against him
There are great many other charges
equally susceptible of proof, and
equally criminal, which might be
brought against him, but it is believed
that those mentioned will be sufficient
for the purpose. When the Alabama
and Chattanooga Railroad was thrown
INTO bankruptcy by 5usteed, he requir-
ed of the State a deposit of ninety
thousand dollars to secure the interest
of the State. Ready cash not. being
available, the Governor deposited one
hundred thousand dollars of State
bonds with Judge Busted. Busted
took these bonds to New York where he
deposited them as collateral for a loan
of sixty thousand dollars from one of
the thirty banks, with which he went
ON tour to Europe The State was af-
terward compelled &c redeem the bonds.
Busteed's home is in Staten Island, and
he remains there when his court is not
IN session. He has written a magnilo-
quent letter lately, declaring his inten-
ton of coming here 1t once to face his
accUsers. 1t is not now believed that
he viii resign. He prefers rather to
brave the storm. Ele is said to have
made all his arrangements, however, to
resume law practice in New York city,
which is taken as evidence that he ex-
poets to be impeached, without doubt.
