THE RAILWAY OFFICES TO REMAIN.

The efficiency Of the Chamber OF Com
morce IS showing itself upon every occa-
sion in which the interests Of Richmond
are involved.
The most recent instance Of this was
the prompt action taken by the Conc
mittec on Inland Trade-of which Mr.. A.
II. Christian is chairman-upon the pro-
posed removal OF the Offices Of the AS
ISOLATED Railways Of Virginia and the
Carolinas from this city TO Baltimore
The reflection upon Richmond as rail-
road centre, not less than the actual IN
Jury to her by the removal of these Of
fees. stirred the committee TO show the
improperly Of taking the headquarters
OF the Associated Railways Of Virginia
and the Carolinas 10 Maryland.
Richmond has been saved this unmerited
slur, and we believe the railways Will
never have reason to regret their deter
mination 20 remain.
We hope now our Legislature will pass
the bill for the reorganization Of the
Richmond and Danville railroad system,
and so bring here the Offices of that great
railroad combination. The restoration Of
credit to our southern railways now in
the hands of receivers. will promote the
welfare of the country served by them
intellectually.
Capital for the development Of all sorts
Of industries along their lines will follow
investments in the railroad securities and
such investments will not be made until
the railroads themselves are in condi-
ton to render the most efficient service
at the least cost.

nlcation which we publish this morning

is Il careful and reliable gentleman, and
he no doubt had good reasons for all his
statements; and truly they do make a
very astonishing case when we think Of
the roads that the State has.

The New York Sun has evidently been

time and martial literature There was
time not many years ago when our
brilliant contemporary took n deep in
terest in the proves of our oyster navy
and some of its exploits.
We believe that on the occasion Of the
famous expedition against the oyster
pirates, which Governor Cameron headed
about 1852, the sun had a special cor
respondent on board of the latters flag
ship. At any rate, that paper contained
the most graphic and accurate account Of
the war published in the country.
We have a dim recollection that the
sun even Praised in poem and prose the
daring resistance of Admiral Skeggs.
whose supposed stubborn defence of his
stronghold on the Chesapeake won its
admiration. The gay old pirate must have
long since followed his wooden legs to

MIR. CARLIsLE's EMbARR AssMEN

The interview which Secretary Carlisle
had on Monday with the New York bank
ers is somewhat discouraging to his
prospects OF negotiating the loan that
he has advertised for.
one statement of the obje ction raised. 20
the loan 10y the bankers Is that the bonds
carry no commission, as in former issues,
and are sold at too large a premium for
short term bonds.
There is nothing in this. With the enor-
nous mass of idle money now in the
country government per cent. bond
(Which is the lean offered would be
snapped up like hot cakes If this were
the whole case. The bankers who assured
Mr. Carlisle that if the legality Of the
issue was shown to be beyond question
there would be no doubt that the entire
amount would be subscrib "a foi immedi-
ately ana at the upset price in New York
city, put the case upon the exact basis
on which it rests. 1t is because the Sec
retary's power TO issue the bonds is called
in question that any difficulty is made
about the subscription to them.
The question put to Mr.. Carlisle by
Mr.. Tappan, president of the Gaiatin
National bank, is the important one for
every citizen Of the United States to be
now considering Said he, "What will
you do, Mr.. Carlisle, if your proposed issue
Of bonds is not a suocessg' and this IS
what it behooves every American to be
asking.
what are we going to do about it? The
government is on the eve Of going 70

gold any day now without ability to re-
srord? What is to haIpen If this occurs?

see that 1t is the opportunity OF the
Democratic party.

opinion of the conservative people of the |
