Presidents CARROTS address to the
Directors of the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad at the monthly meeting on
Wednesday is published. Notwith-
standing the decreased freight and pas
senger tariffs, the earnings for May OF
this year are nearly hundred thousand
dollars larger than during the same
month of 1874. Mr.. Garrett devotes
considerable portion of his address to
a review of the value and condition Of
the western extensions of the road, par
ticularly the Chicago line, the Pitts
burg ond Connellsville branch, and the
Marietta and Cincinnati division, all of
which are in frst~class order and transs
acting heavy business. Mr.. Garrett
shows that the company refused to put
out a half million OF its paper that was
asked for by leading New York bank
ing house. Some small amount of
obligation is out at three per cent, but
there is nothing in the situation to
warrant the impression that the COM
pany is under the necessity Of going on
the market to obtain money It's cash
Surplus is ample for all its needs at this
time. The Directors unanimously re-
solved to sustain Mr. Garrett. The

THE CONVENT ION.

Our neighbor of the Valley, pre-
suming that convention will be held
suggests New Market as the place and
the second Saturday of July as the
time for the holding of the convention.
We do not object to the place, New
Market would, in our opinion, be most
suitable. The time would be inoppor'
tune our principal objection is that it
would be too soon, and would give us
very protracted canvass.
AZ to holding convention, we have
opposed it, because we considered 1t
unnecessary. Experience teaches us
that conventions, instead of halmoniz-
ing the party, frequently create the
greatest discord. In districts where
the running of two candidates belong
ing to the same party endangers Its
success, conventions are sometimes
considered necessary. But even IN
doubtful districts we find primary elec-
tions substituted. In primary elections
larger number participate and tn e
voice of the people is more fully ex
pressed Does imminent danger
threaten the Conservative party in this
district? Are the questions at issue OF
40 great magnitude that they cannot
de submitted directly to the people 2
Are the people of this district more
incapable of making a good select
ion, than score or two Of persons
chosen at small primary meet
ings? These are questions which the
people are now asking, and until
they are satisfactorily answered, we
will find that conventions may nomi.
nate but they cannot compel the people
to recognize their nominations nor suDs
port their nominees. In one of the hard
est fought canvasses of this district, the
nominee of Democratic convention, a
man possessing eminent qualifications
supported by an exemplary moral char
acter, was defeated. Democrats voted
against him because he was the noml
nee of convention to which they
were opposed. IF the fight in this
district should be between conserva-
tives, we would be perfectly willing to
submit the entire question TO the people
without one word in favor of, or III
opposition to, either candidate but
we express what we believe to be the
sentiments of the great majority of
this district, when we oppose the call
ing of convention to take from the
great body of the people the selection
of our next State Senator.
We are in favor of extending every
courtesy to our neighboring county,
and are willing to give them a fair
chance in the contest, but are of the
opinion that the people of Page would
do themselves a great injustice, by
voting for Page man in preference &c
one from Shenandoah, possessing in
greater degree the requisite qualifca,
tons for the place. The position
is one of Importance, and we are de
cidedly in favor of the responsibility 81
the selection falling where it naturally
belongs.

Reports from southern section o

Reports from southern section OF
New Jersey say the heaviest frost
known for many years occurred there
Sunday night. A gentleman from
Monmouth county states at 3 o'clock
Monday morning in that locality the
ground was white as if covered with
snow, and so thick that it could be
easily scooped up in the hand. The
damage done to growing crops is
said to be very heavy. There was
frost in the vicinity of Morristown, n.
J., Sunday night and also at Binghame
ton, N. j., being very heavy at the
latter place and injurying the crops.
AT windsor, N Y, thin ice was formed
A dispatch from Grey Court, Orange
county, n. Y, states that a severe

leys along the Erie railway in that
county killed tender vegetables, but
the damage was not serious. Heavy

The war between the B. & 0. and
the Pennsylvania Railroads is about
being adjusted. A conference of off
GERS of the respective roads has been
held and basis of agreement deter
mined upon. 1t will be submitted to
the authorities of the respective roads.
It is generally believed that the basis
will prove satisfactory to all parties
and the war which has been instru
mental in giving the people low fares
and cheap freights will be at end
Whether fare and freights will be adj
vanced to the old rates, Or policy Of
over fare and cheaper freight rates
adopted is not yet known. Those VIII O
have bought railroad tickets as an in
vestment will soon be enabled to realize
handsome profits.

RAILROAD ACCIDENT.

New York, June 13.-The express
train which left Boston at 3 2. M. Sat
urday, while running at a rapid rate
was thrown from the track near Ire
mont station, about four miles above
Harlem bridge. In the parlor cars
everything was thrown into the greats
est confusion, the seats and sofas being
all wrenched from their places and fall
ing in 81 miscellaneous mass, with the
passengers underneath.
1t was soon ascertained, however,
that no person was severely injured,
although good many Of the passen~
gers received bruises and slight cuts.
Vice President Wilson, who was in
the second of the parlor cars, escaped
without any injury whatever. Speaker
Blaine, who was in the first car, was
thrown violently forward, and seat or
sofa falling upon him, created severe
confusion on the right side, but no
bones were broken, and only one slight
cut was inflicted. Miss Annie Louise
Carey, the opera singer, occupied a seat
near Mr. Blaine. She escaped with a
slight bruise on her right shoulder.
The accident was caused by horse
straying on the track, the entrails and
parts of which were found strewn over
the track for couple Of blocks. A
locomotive proceeded at once to New
York for a wrecklng train, but many
of the passengers who we're uninjured
proceeded to the city in the horse cars
The majority of the passengers, how
ever, waited for the train from New
York.
