WAsHNGToN. Feb. 22.-A couple of

Y, who served four years as an officer in a
Union regiment during the war, wrote TO
Gen. Boiling an x-Confederate officer at
Petersburg, Va, that he Che writer was
entitled to a pension from the United States
government because Of two wounds received
in action on Virginia soil; that he had money
enough without it, and that he desired To
transfer his pension to some wounded eN-
Confederate soldier, whose circumstances
were not as favorable as his own. Gen.
Boiling suggested the name OF w. G..
Mclaughlin of Luneuburg county. Viz
ginia, and the pension Of the Union veteran
IS now being paid to that person. Since
then five of the WatertoWn veterans COM
rades have drawn pensions for wounds re-
ceiyed in action, and being beyond the need
OF personal aid, have asked Gen. Boiling to
name five wounded soldiers Of the army Of
Northern Virginia to whom they may trans

RAILROAD LEGISLATION.

1t Is a curious turn in affairs when but a
little while ago the railroads were resisting
the right of the general government to in
terfere with their management and were
filling the halls of congress with lobbyists
to defeat legislation in this direction, yet
now are turning TO congress with AN APP
peal for legislation TO protect themselves
against each other. The system of rate
cutting inaugurated by the transcOntinental
lines has been a fatal movement for stock
holders, resulting as it does in the cutting
off of dividends entirely. The only remedy
that the stockholders now have is through
national legislation, and consequently they
are now invoking the aid of the power
which but short lineage they denied had
the right to be exercised in any contin-
gency.
In an interview with the GLOBE this
morning a gentleman who is well posted i'm
railway matters tells in a clear, succinct way
how this perniciOus system of rate-cutting
is not only detrimental to the stockholders,
but is positive injury to the public in that
il unsettles business. SO long as this rate
cutting system prevails the shipper and the
buyer, the manufacturer and the consumer
are all at sea and cannot regulate business
ahead with any degree of certainty. As
long as the railway rates are constantly
iluctuating-down TO day and up tomorrow
there can be no sort of stability in any
sort of business which is dependent on rail-
way transportation. As the stockholders
and the public are now united ia an appeal
to congress for legislation to correct this
evil. there can beno excuse for congressional
delay in the matter. And while congress is
fixing mp this part OF the work of regulat-
ing the railroads it might as well keep on
at it until the Whole difficulty il straight
ened ont and the railroads be made what
they Were designed 90 be-a public benefit

founded on the philosOphic relations which
exist between the different races that in

1t is limited at in the first clause of the

wouldn't be the polite thing for congress TO
say so. but that is the real meaning of it.
But it makes no difference what congress
may say; the law of political philosophy
remains in force. and tho expansion
of our republic is a natural law
Of its existence. To that construction of
our constitution which gave it its expansive
force, the nation is indebted for its present
glory and greatness. The valley of the Mis-
siSsippI and the golden shores OF the Pacific
would to-day be in the possession Of foreign
powers and governed by European bayOnets
but for this expansive principle of our gov
eminent. The spirit OF American liberty
and American progress is still abroad. and
our wisest craftsmanship is that which
looks steadily and boldly to this fact, and
shapes the policy of the nation toward its
lawful and inevitable expansion. And
thus it is we are brought to look upon Mr..
FRYE's proposition as the most practical
and statesmanlike measure that has been
introduced into the American congress for
many a long year.
