TyTA BLlsHED AUGUST "a, 1852


Within q short time lately several cheap
excursions have been advertised in our
columns, particularly those to Niagara
Falls, Chicago, &c. The rates at which
passengers are carried on these excursions
is astonishingly low when compared with
the regular rites, and particularly with the
rates that obtained few years ago. We
take it that these surprisingly low rates
mark the comingof new era in railroad
travel. The day Of high rates on railroads
is gradually passing away, Travel for
pleasure is luxury that people can dis.
pense with. Few people can afford very
much OF It at regular rates. Hence
at least 90 per cent OF the travel on rail.
roads is on business. Whole families do
not travel on business, and in only very
small per centage Of instances do the indi-
vidual members ofittravel save when call.
ed ly duty or business. Hence it has be-
come necessary for the railroads of the
land in order to make money out OF the
passenger business to offer extraordinary
inducementsto people to leave their homes
andinvesta little Of their spare earnings
in pleasure trip.
To this end they are putting down fares
to about three-quarters OF cent per mile.
For instance, an excursion is advertised to
Niagara Falls and return for s. so, and the
round trip distance is about 700 hundred
miles To Chicago and return, nearly
1000 miles, the fare has been put down to
81. In addition, arrangements have been
made in some Of these cases whereby the
excusionists are entertained ut materially
reduced rates at the hotels, thus adding to
tie inducement Of cheap transportation
the indueement of cheap board andlodg-
ing, which Is matter OF moment to those
who desire to avail themselves of these
excursions. We have no doubt that in the
course OF another season or two still more
extensive arrangements will he made in
the way OF holding out inducements to
people of moderate means to join in these
excursions. Their tickets will secure them
admittanee to all places of public interest,
and thus enable them for very few dol
lars to sec great deal that as a rule costs
the ordinary traveller large ootlay of
money. ~ s.is. l..'.
The tendency OF the times is to active
among railroads for business,
and since the Introduction of steel rails
and the consequentgreat reduction in the
expense OF maintaining road beds, the cost
of rail carriage has been and will still fur
ther DO materially reduced. And inas-
much us it is now about rs certain rs any
thing in the future can be that We shall
never again see the high prices of the past
for anything, We may be well assured that
cheap excursions will become more and
more great feature of railroad business.
Freight transportation has fallen from two
cents per ton per mile to half cent per
ton, and why should not large excursion
trains be run at tstill less than three-quar-
ters OF cent per passenger per mile? |.
