We understand that there is much
dissatisfaction at San Rafael at the
manner in which the people there are
taxed at the custom house on the Tia
Juana. 1t is likely Governor Villa
grana will go to the Capitol to use his
influence in having the laws so ar
ranged as to establish better trade
in that direc tion, as the whole people
of Lower California, and indeed this
State also, are concerned in the mat
ter. We do not understand that blame
attaches to the gentlemen in the Gus
tom house, as they but do their duty
in obedience to law; but the custom
laws of the Republic are so stringent
as to need the change sought for.

The Railroad War.

THE READING AND LEHIoH TEAR UP PORTION OF
THEIR TRACK TO PREVENT THE WILMINGTON AND
READININa FROM CARRYING OUT THEIR PrR-
POSES.
Some days ago the officers Of the Wilmington
and Reading Railroad gave notice to the otiicera
of the Reading and Lehigh Railroad, that st the
expiration of that time they would take poss,
sion of the latter's road in accordance with the
terms of contract said to have been ell
tered into with the Berks County Railroad,
Yesterday evening these ten days, expired
but early in the afternoon President Baei
issued an order that the track should be discon-
nected for short distance above Court street,
to prevent the Wilmington and Reading Com
pany from carrying out their purposes. The
track for about twenty-five feet was torn up and
an old engine was run of the track into the
space where it WAS disconnected. guard was
also placed there who remained on duty al
night. The order of President Baer WAS quietly
carried into effect, and there was but little eI-
element. Reading Times 18th.

SHERIDAN 1NsULrED BY BAYARD.

We suppose there are Few men IN the country
whose right to insult or even criticise General
Sheridan is less than that of Senator Bayard
sheridan's services to the Republic have been
great his courage, his patriotism, his military
skill rendered to the United States, in a time of
the sorest public trial, value that can scarcely be
over-estimated. On the other hand, Mr.. Bayard
has never done anything of Importance to the
Republic his record is one Of criticism, COM
plant, and pretension but neither in the field
nor in the forum has he performed any service
that deserves or is likely to receive an enduring
record.
When, therefore, Mr.. Bayard assumes to de-
eide that General Sheridan sis not fit to breathe
the air Of Republic" he forces the answer that
he is neither qualified by his record nor by his
avowed theories to sit in Judgment on the gal
liant commander whom he thus .assails. MIR.
Bayard never defended the Union though he
was drilling troops, while the clouds Of REBEL
ion were gathering, they were not meant
to serve the united Republic. Mr.. Bayard,
neither then nor since, threw the weight of
his influence or the force Of his efforts
against the rebellion while Phil. Sheridan did
much to preserve free government, he did
nothing, and when, after the patriots and soldiers
have saved the Republic, without his aid Or sym
patty, he assumes to decide them unfit to
breathe its air. his offence against propriety is
too great to be quietly passed over. The insult
il simply infamous.
The Senator pretends that Sheridan meant to
call the people of the Louisiana all bandits. He
knows better. But on this pretence, he assumes
to say that Sheridan would make himself the
only free man, all others being SUBJECT to his
will. If this were just charge how i'll it BELTS
Mr.. Bayard-he whose theories are all against
universal suffrage, against popular rule, whose
ideas of government, again aid again avowed,
demand that the masses of the people should
neither be educated nor permitted to vote Gen.
eral Sheridan has uttered no such idea rs
Mr.. Bayard imputes to him, but the scandalous
and proscriptiye doctrines which the latter
breaches are known to every one who knows
him at all, and can neither be denied nor de-
Tended.
Sheridan was educated at the Republics OK.
pense, it Is true. And when the hour come to
serve the Republic he did serve her. Mr.. Bay
ards friends did not. Yet he never blamed
them, never denounced them. They, in his
sight, are SIT to breathe the air" of the Union
which they did not help maintain but sought tc
destroy.
