If the privilege so grant- ed iy o right of way shrough a public street in prdor to establish a railwsy-tiack Lhereon, the public has an unquestionable right to demand that those who travel on that railway shall have $he beet accommodations in traveling that the uaturo of the case will admit of, Tho right is cleazrly » mutual one, and tho road is to bo ran, not in the intorests of tho Company mevely, but for the advautago ond good of tho public as well. 'Fho mioasure of righis and pquity nnachiug to cither party flopends on cir- cumstunces, Frow roads on which there is a gioat nwonnt of profitable travel, it is reasona. blo to demand a higher staudard of conveniciice and n botter sccommodation than iy oxpected from ronds whore tho runuing exponscs are equully s groat, whila the profits ara loss. Wo are led to speak of this in counection with the South Bido City Railway Company, and the managetont of its alfulrs.” Weo are swuro {lat tho cuss of mnintaining such o lue, with its sey~ cral branches and conncetiony, 18 expensive ; that “the perplexity attending tho control of ity Dusinees matiors mnust be great, and that it would bo quito impossible to arvaugoe allits moaemonts i & way to meot tho appro- Lation of the entire communily, but we are as fully convinced that the prolits acorning to its tronsury aro 80 remunerative that fow of ita ntockholdors cun bo found desirous of dispos. ing of their shares in ordor to rid themsulves of ity burdens, 1n viow of what has been sald, we vonture the opinfon that that there s ot ono man in the City of Chicago, outsido of the list of atock- holdors fu the institution, who will not pro- nounce the course adopted by it in introducing cn its lines tho ona-lorue, or ** bob-tull cars,” ny thoy aro called, un imposition on the public, aud [ ?nfrlngoumntar rights that woro iutandod to De secured to onw cluzens whou its ehurter way prauted, Iv is mot nocossury to enumerule the owvils and aunoyRuces incident to thin vystoin, Noono who haa beon unfortunate enough 10 Le abliged to uso this mode of couveyanca ean full to appreciato the truth of whut wo say, 1t s poulutvely refroshing to ride iu the cars of tho Madigou aud Clurk strooct lines aftor uuder- roing the nuisance of this onc-horso system, By o Iutter method, paseongors aro srowded i a rhort and narrow oar until thoy are nearly suf- focated, and are ouliged cithor to clbow thele way throngh the ciowd to the driver’s window to ey their fare, or else they muat subjoct some other passenger to the insovenienco of doing the work for them, making tho chnuge with ono lund aud hanging by the strap with the uther, And, wo ank, {4 It just to tho publie t0 compol thom to ‘endura such ianoyances on Jiney ro livgenlly patronized 2 Is M just by eyt the Laaolu. =2 Sunilion (Who aro oflon obliged toride In these cars in tho evening) totho ovile ariniug from irude and drunkon rowdies, who take advantago of pns. seugera in a oar_unprotectad by a conduotor ?

As is wellknown, tho thres Chieago toiok lines tapping the Union Laclfn ot Omahr—tho Chica- go & Northwestern, Chicago, Durliugton & Quinoy, and Chicago, Rock Island & Pacifio— some years ago formed u pool dividing all their onrnings both from feight and passougor traffio to that point. Thin poolis gwencrally known as the Jowa pool, and numberloss timos has its downfall boeu predicted, but every timo it proved tobe acannrd. Many offorts hnve niready beon mode by various compelivg lines to break up this monopoly, but all wore iu vain, The pool was o strong that nothing but an extraordinary occurrence could break it up. A diiflenlty has now arisen botwoen two of tho pooling lines—the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy and the Chicago & North- wentern—which may flually rosult in tio broak- ing up of tiio combination. A regulur war has begun between thess two roads ovor the con- noctious at_Clinton, la., in which tho Chieago, Chnton & Dabugue Roud is the main bone ot coutontion, 1t is known tat {lie Chicago, Bur- lington & Quincy hos uot only docided to build s pontoon bridge at Chatom, but has let the contract for it to be fimshud witbin ninaty days, The Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Iately submitted these propositions to the Nurthwesiern, und asked for portaission to crows the ruilrond bridgo airondy constructed, or, in caso this pormissiun was not granted, to allow tho use of the isluud in operat- ing the pontoon bridge as part of the rondway, Lhus 1sland beiug owned by the bridgo company ; orto lense. or grant the use of the Midland Ttoad, siso coutrolled by the Northwestern for 8 miles tlus side of Lyois, us now used by the Chicago, Clinton & Dubuque, Last Saturday the Northwestern msent in an answer rofusing all three of tho propositions, and also refusing any and all other propositions tho Chicago, Buriington & Quincy had to mako. ‘The use of the bridge was expacted to ho re- fused, Bus tho refusul to give, sell, or leaso the ugo of tho island will probably postpone the building of the pontoon bridge for sumo tiwe, und perbaps for au_indelinito poriod. Nor will the Chicagoe & Nust; westorn allow the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy to use the Midland toack at sll.

(Oct. 30), Correspondencs of the New York Herad, On Baturday lust su itinorant peddler entercd the houso of Jamos Tolin, living uoar this place, aud procoeded to display his wares to Mrs. Tolin, despita hor assertions Liat sha did tot wikh to buy suytmg. v, Volin was conlined to his bed, and lind boon 8o conlined for many years, h“i"!r’ 80 crippled with rhowmotism that it bud been long imponable for him to leave bis bed unloss carried fram it, After showing bis goods, and M. Tohn not buying suything, the poddler commouced n conversstion, i thu course of which e learned te Liolpless condition of D, Toliu. Fiually La made an insuliing proposal to Afrs. ‘Lolin, and she ndignantly ordersd him to leave the house. Instead he appronched her and selzod nold of her, suying, with an osth, that sho wos ic bis powor, as her husband wus as good as dend, Mrs, 'Woliv, being o delicate woman, ran scream- iug into anotlior room. T peddler tollowed her, and, before she could escape by tho door, canght hor again. A desperate steuggle ensued between them, and Mrs. 'Lolin was thrown violently to the floor by the powerful vitlain, Mr. Tolin had beou all the time o witness of the struggle, lying powerless in his bod. At tho sound of hia wife falhug on the floor, however, uud her frantic whrioks for nid, he soomed to bu endowed' with supuroutural power, buder the wuiluence of that power ho sprang from tho bed he had boecn unablo to loave for years, Hoizing » heavy oratch that stood near tie bed, he rushed into the room whero the struggle was going on. Mrs, Toliu bud suceeoded in regalnweg hor feot, but tho pedaler hnd grasped bor aronnd the waist, and was endenvor- ing again to throw ber. As Mr. Tolin ontorod tho room, tho singular spectacle of a bedrididen cripple bLastoning to tho defensa of his wite seemed to parulyze the scoundrel, and ha stoud uiating a8 1f in a trance at the approach of tie Lusbaud. ~ Mr, "olin, norved by unualural strength, brought the cruteh down over the hoad of the podd-er, aud fellod hitn ik un ox to tho floor. Tho noxt instant the oxcitoment and superbwunan clfort chut had supported the hus- bund loft lnm, With a shriok, that told of the intonse ugouy of the relupee, he elusped his tolus forchead, and diopped to the tloor, and almost justantiy oxpirod. Ars, Tolin suceeeded in gatling the body of bor husband baciitu the bod and then staited for assistance. Sha was obliged to go over o milo bofore she was bl to obiaju any, \Yion sho roturned with sovoral neighbors tho peddlor was goue, 1o Lind recovered consvionsnoss sud fed, leaving his paelk in the housa, When the newd of tho atlempted outrage and the iragic death of M.
