Colonel Shattuc, of the Atlantic &

up and no mistake. Think of it: tickets
by that line to Philadelphia and return
S24, and to New York and return only
S25. These tickets are good for sixty
days and passengers enjoy all stop-over
rights. A schedule OF corresp spondipgly
low rates is issued, embracing points all
along the line. The traveller who de-
sires to be posted must not fail to keep
up with Colonel Shattuc's bulletins.
When he goes in there's business ahead
and the public is sure to be benefited.

the Result Of Our Deliberations;

And we Beg Leave to Report the following 81
the Result Of Our Deliberations
THAT the main object of tho railroads
i should be to carry the largest number OF
people, both to aid the Centennlal and to aid
the roads.
The population Of the United States is now
over forty three millions. What portion oi
that vast number will attend the @the
country embody fewer OF the very rich, or Of the
very poor than those OF any other country.
There are few rich who can 60 at any rate of
fare and there are many poor who can not go
ut all The great body, however, composed OF
farmers, merchants and mechanics, can, and
generally will go, at moderate rates Of fare.
That class of people in the West called Gran
gers, and who are now embodied in large So
cieties and organizations, would be disarmed
of their jealousies, and doubtless attend in
large numbers,if they found the policy Of roads
liberal and patriotic. There can be no cry OF
monopoly, when the railroads have come
within the limits Of q moderate profit in order
that the people may 90 up to the
great National Festival-see and enjoy the
glorious results Of a hundred years Of free
dom. Another. and q more practical thing be-
fore us, Is to consider in what manner and
with what objects these people are likely to
come. They will come from al quarters and
directions, and they will come with desire to
see other places and other objects than those OF
the Centennial Every railroad in the country
will have something to do IN the carriage OF
that vast caravan, which during the summer
will be moving on to the Centennial. 1t be-
comes us, then, to harmonic as far as possible,
both the wishes of the people and the mutual
interests of the roads. We are convinced that
good policy indicates reduction In the Cen
tennial round trip tickets, and complying with
tho views of the public,
