RIVAL or THE TRUNK LINES.
THE POSITION OF THE BALTIMORE AND
OHIO man


OHIO ROAD.
s. H. Dunan, for many years connected with
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, and familiar
with the workings Of the road and the views of
the president, John W. Garrett, makes the fol-
lowing statement concerning the position Of the
company:
To any one familiar with the many difficulties
under which the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company has labOred during the paSC eight years
in securing Chicago connection; the refusal Of
Mr.. Garrett to Join in the combination of the
other trunk lines leading into the city to spool''
earnings under the Saratoga contract will not be
a surprise. His company since the war has been
entirely at the mercy Of the Lake Shore and the
Western connections Of the Pennsylvania rail-
road, being compelled to use the line from Mon
roeyille 800 miles east Of Chicago, and the c. O.
weary at last Of the many annoyanees to which
his company was subjected in its efforts to build
up for his city direct trade with Chicago deter
mined to build an independent air line from a
point on his Lake Erie division to Chicago which,
1t is officially announced, will be open for trafic
throughout It's entire length in a few days It
has been built and equipped entirely out Of the
surplus fund Of the Baltimore and Ohio Company,
without increasing the capital stock Of the com
pany single snare, and Is 200 miles long, or q
saving in the distance to Chicago Of so miles In
years past the other trunk lines have not been
so DESTROYS OF pooling their earnings with the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad. Now. however,
when 1t is about to open an independent line of
after Mr.. CARROTS return from Europe where
he has been sOiOurning for his health, In hasten
ing TO Baltimore with a proposition to pool -
He appears, however, to have had merely a good
deal OF advice TO give them in return.
Mr.. Dunan exhibited the following table, show
ing the capital and bonded debt OF the New York
Central and Lake Shore railroads, as compared
with that Of the Baltimore and Ohio:

charged with the duty Of arranging for the grand
ratification meeting in honor of the recent vic

stated the committee agreed bya large vote that
the proposed demonstration was not feasible, and

Brown raised it to twenty-be-

We are glad to hear that JEFF
ferson Davis, OH account of the
manner in which his speech,
last fall, before the Southern
Historical Society, at White
Sulphur Springs, Virginia, was
perverted, has come to the de-
termination to make no more
speeches. This is wise. MIR.
Davis has done the South great
injury by his speeches since
the war, in which his language
was uot perverted, and if a per
version keeps him from the
rostrum, then we can afford
not only to pardon the author
of it, but thank him for it. Fol-
a half dozen years we have
regularly had a speech from
Mr.. Davis, which was exten>
sively used by the Republicans
as a campaign document.

Two Bales oI CJLscn OIL Uue kcr6.
Thomas II. Sandidge, near
Brownsville, Kinds county,
Miss, put sixteen one-horse
cart>loads of a compost Of
scrapings of the cow-lot, cot
ton seed and decayed vegeta-
b!es from the bottom ola pond,
Oh one acre of land. When
preparing the land to plant, he
scattered sixty bushels of green
cotton seed along the centre
furrow, and bedded on them,
cultivated in the usual way.
He planted the common seed
he had been using for eighteen
years. Result: The first pick
ing, which was finished on the
10Th of September, 2OS5
pounds, leaving at least 1000
pounds to open by the next
picking. The yield will be over
two bales to this acre Of land,
at a cost for extra labor and
manure not exceeding six or
seven dollars. The surrounding
land Of the same kind (ordi-
nary Kinds county hill land
| will make about half a bale
without manure.
With such examples as the
above coming every year un>
der our observation, what utter
folly to plant four acres to yield
the same result.
