tended that It would be ruinous to do business
IN that way. SO they ceased TO use the tun-

An set was passed by the General Assembly
granting to the Western MARYLAND the right Ia
transport passengers through the tunnel by
paying to the Baltimore and Potomac at
cents for each passenger and six cents per
ton. The last named company determ;ne,l
not to allow the Western MARYLAND the right
to avail itself OF the tunnel at that rate. The
Western Maryland did not take ADVANTAGE Of
the act of Assembly, and showed no disposi-

to Canton was apparent to the company. and

The Outrage Mil Must Cease to Rum
True to their instincts and following

True to their instincts and following
out their .paltry and narrow ideas, the
newspapers which favor the third term
and swear by the Administration at Nil
hazards, ere pouring hot shot into Hon.
w. D. Kelley. This gentleman has dis
played the bloody spirit till he has
become ashamed of it,, and with the
politicians keen scent, he has discerned
that the tide. is turning, that humbuc
and misreprcsen as regards the
South, are notany longer potent instru-
ments of rule and influence. He has
sung his recan tat;on, he regrets his sup
portof the Force Bill, he has travelled in
South Carolina and Georgia, and talked
with Confederate aoldiers, Northern
men, negroes carpet -baggers and tra-
velers, and he was surprised at the good
feeling existing" He has announced
his purpose to take no more stock in
Southern outrages. Thus we have IN
eother striking testimony to be added to
sthat of 7Messrs. Phelps and Foster at
New Orleans, that the South is as peace
ful and quiet as the North. But this is
just what wretched faction of place.
seekers and offioe-holders are unwilling
that the country should believe, and
they hasten in full cry after those who,
sas correspondents of respectable Jour
nails, like the Tribune, Herald and Times,
of New York, or as members of Con-
. gress, dare to tell unpalatable truth
eOf course, as the New York Tribune
observes, these dishonest criticisms upon
honest witnesses have no importance in
themselves, but they may have serious
significance as Indications of the temper
'of the Administration. When Mr.. Will
iiams surrendered his seat in the Cabinet
. to Mr.. Edward Pierrepont, the country
! breathed more freely, in the belief that
outrage campaigns were over The
nnanimity with which the official press
is belaboring Judge Kelley for saying
:. that the Force Bill was entirely uncalled
for, hints, however, at the purpose of
Chose in power, to try once more the ex-
pertinent which ended 30 badly last No.
yember. If that is their purpose, their
final overthrow is certain. Of course,
!that is their purpose, and we are rejoiced
ito have the strong words of the Tribune
in condemnation Of 1t, and in the predic-
ton that it is destined to disgraceful
failure. We heartily echo its sentiment,
that the renewing of ancient friendships
and strengthening of national ties be-
tween the different sections of our
country, arethe most marked phenomena
of this centennial era. The celebrations
which we have had and are yet to have
F.: in connection with it, will do much to
make force bills, military elections. and
the whole recent policy of the Admins
tration towards the South, impossible for
1.-The future.
