IT has long appeared to us that the means
of land travel between this city and Phila-
delphia or New York are more fit for the
Dark Ages than the present day. Delays
by the cut-throat squabbles of great corpora
tions, shabby through-cars apparently with
drawn from the Podunk Branch, swindling
rates of fare ingeniously devised to bear
heavily against Washington, and general dis
regard for Washington passengers as to their
comfort, safety, and convenience, mar and
ing in the United States. This is greatly
due to the sinister influence of that en-
trenched monopoly with long name, the p.
w. b. r. r. If the Government wants to
make beginning in con6scating misused
railways and running them itself, it cannot
find better or more lucrative opening than
the routes northward from its own Capital.
Short of this, the only effective remedy,
however press and people may denounce and
complain, is the opening of the badly needed
| competing line between Baltimore and Phila,
| delphia. The methods which have been
taken to defeat this project so often at
tempted, would i'll bear investigation. II
still remains as a chance for fame and fortune
to some enterprising man who will call in
the aid of publicity and the force Of public
opinion to aid him at every step. In tn,
mean time, stage line would certainly
afford more satisfactory accommodation and
would pay some one, say Col. Delaney Kane
| who would undertake 1t.

On the eternal subject of the Coutts-
Bartlett marriage Mr.. Labouchere says: - America
viii deprive the poor of the vast benefactons which
the Baroness has annually contributed to their wants
out OF the income derived from the bank. Were such
a marriage contemplated In America by an American
citizen is only fair to say that public opinion would
pronounce itself so strongly as to render 1t impos-
slble. '-Er.
The clever editor of Truth Is grossly mistaken about
public opinion In America. No one here would pre~
tend that the public has any rights which should In
terfcre with the marriage Of any elderly splnster,
rich or poor, who chooses to mate. Not even the
American 'poor - would whine at such an event as
1t seems to he thought the marriage OF Mistress Coutis
to Mr.. Bartlett would be to the poor OF England The
stuff that is written about this affair sounds II the
writers really believed that the Baroness's "bene-
a. faction" " had given the English people vested
right to the wealth they have been long enjoying
through her bounty. MIR. Labouchere Is rich: the
| rest OF the London snobs who are aghast at the
Bartlett- Coutts engagement are probably rich: bu,
the tenor OF their comments shows that they
enough to want the poor who belong to them made
comfortable out Of the wealth OF old woman, and
that they get mad at the thought Of her not continuing
| to do alone that which belongs In duty to them ALL

Tue quick response which the people OF
this city have made to the appeal for the
suffering poor is matter for congratulation.
This city is a place toward which drift a
large proportion of helpless human waits
old soldiers come to look after pensions they
may never get, great mum bers of men and
women hoping TO get employment in Gov
ernment Offices, when they are literally
unfit for any responsibility, and swarms o
negroes, who somehow get the idea that the
Capital must be the Paradise of their race
Though all these classes Of paupers on ghi
by right to be supported at their former
places Of residence, they cannot be left tC
starye and freeze.

TuE misguided gentlemen who have started
a crusade against Providence Hospital do
not know how badly their course will seem
TO those who know what an admirably
managed institution they are assailing and
what a benefcient work it is doing. The
possession of this Hospital is Justly subject
of pride to the people Of Washington, and
those who have seen II growing up from the
small beginnings Of less than twenty years
ago will feel that such attacks ifnot inspired
by the very worst motives, are at least the
fruit of the most unreasoning and intolerant
bigotry. The Surgeon General has made a
sufficient answer TO all the material allega-
tions contained in the letter OF Messrs. Mason,
Ciapp, etc If the appropriation is TO be
taken away from Providence Hospital, will
the gentlemen who are so Mortified at money
being given to a Catholic charity be kind
enough to tell us where the poor patients
with which the public wards OF Providence
Hospital are filled are 10 be put Have Mr.
Clapp and his party made any arrangements
which can take the place Of those which the
