Rail Road Discrimination.

If further arguments were want
ing to prove the necessity Of a rail-
road commission the following ez-
tract taken from q New Orleans
Journal should be conclusive -
In conversation with one Of our
leading merchants the other day
about the state Of trade, lie said !:
"Dr. | vii. give you one example
from which you may infer the whole.
A party bought Of me the other day
a little Of goods and ordered them
shipped to Perry's Bridge, La, via
the Morgan road. The quantity to
be shipped amounted to one dray
load, and consisted Of one hogshead,
one %tierce, two boxes and one bar
rel. With the bill of lading hand
ed the driver a ten dollar bill, think.
ing it would largely oyerpay the
freight charge. Judge Of my sur
prise when in a little while he re-
turned and said he needed fifty cents
more and the freight charge was ten
dollars and a half. Now | can have
the same load sent to Trenton, New
Jersey, for the sum Of three dollars
and a half"

The Abbeville Base Ball Club
came to grief again last Sunday at
the hands of the Rose Hills. The
game was a wretchedly one sided
affair and the result las put the
country boys on their mettle. The
Rose Hills played a good game, and
there were but two good players in
the Abbcvillc club. Beer held down
first base like a dandy and never
made an error. Vanslyke did eff.
fective work as catcher and at the
bat. The fielding was simply abom-
Unable. By some mishap O'Bryan
and Edwards the usually invinciblc
battery were out of sorts and worked
badly. When they get down to bu-
siness some one is salivatcd. 1t may
be in the town boys to clean up
the Rose Hills but they must use
their muscles more and their mouth
much less in order to do it.

While Sunday dissertation is be-
coming more and more prevalent in
many Northern States, and the day
designed for rest and worship is in
many cities given up to secular EN-
ployment and amusements, the State
of Louisiana, heretofore distinguish
ed for its disregard of the sanction
of the civil Sabbath, has committed
itself squarly to a policy on this
general subject which must in a
short time vastly strengthen the in
terests Of morality and social order.
A law passed by the Legislature and
just approved by the Governor, com.
pels all stores, shops, saloons and
places Of public business to close at
midnight on Saturday and remain
closed until midnight Sunday, and
prohibits the proprietors from sell.
ing or giving away any goods du-
ring that period the only exception
being in the cases Of drug.stores,
bookstores, bakeries, newspaper Of
fees, and some classes of shops
which serve in a measure, a public
use. No one who has ever spent a
Sunday in New Orleans, need to be
told what a vast advance in public
sentiment is indicated. and what
revolution will be produced by this
measure.

given the world a more satisfactory
