From present appearances there is
probability of vigorous railroad war in
New York state this winter. 1t is claimed
that the charter of The New York Central
railroad company will soon expire, and an
effort is to be made, as in this event the
property will revert to the state upon pay
ment of a sum equal to the improvements,
to have the state purchase the property and
operate the road, as it does the Erie canal,
in the interests of the people. The state
has the right, it is argued, to assume con.
troll of the railroads, even if the charters
have not expired, by simply giving fair
equivalent value. If they have not this
power. il is claimed that the legislature
might grant away the Whole state and
compel the land owners to yield up their
property to the construction of railroads"
The business men of New York state are
determined in any event to prevent dis
elimination in freight rates, and as the
state authorities have the power to control
the railroads. 1t is the intention to make a
determined fight to procure for the people
their rights in this matter, even If it is nee
cssary to GO to the extreme of putting the
roads into the hands and under the control
of the state officials. 1t is notorious that
two or three men control the trunk lines of
the country aud have it in their power to
rob tho people by crushing out opposition
and compelling them to submit to extor.
tionate rates of transportation. The action
of the New York legislature will be
watched with interest as it is but the com
mencement of war on the railroads, that
will extend throughout the length and
breadth Of the country.

In Ireland the condition of things is very
grave and there is but little chance OF quiet
being peaceably restored. Such is the ex
tent of the agitation that even the leaders
of the land league are using every effort to
keep the people within bounds and pre-
vent an open rupture, which they forsee
would end only in disaster to their cause.
The startling intelligence has been received
out the III; ltia in England to fill the posts
made vacant by the troops sent to Ireland
aud the Cape. Some idea of the number
of MALTA needed is evident from the fact
that in Ireland alone there are now nearly
10000 troops. Business of all kinds has
suffered severely and should the present
deplorable condition of affairs continue to
exist for any length of time, serious EN-
barrasments will result in financial circles.
The people of the country are becoming
tired of the turmoil and petitions are being
them to enforce order, Resolutions de-
nouncing the league have also been
adopted, and it is asserted that large
number of the intelligent classes who see
this movement is championed by horde
of political demagogues for personal pow.
er and influence, have become thoroughly
disguised with the whole agitation and will
exert their influence to assist the authori.
ties in any effort to restore peace.
