Tho rates on the rallronds are confessodly nnprofitable to the compauies, and yield barely sufficient to cov- er tho cost of moving, The margin, it will bo seen, is & largo ove, It is sufcient to show that in tho acason of mavigation the competition betwoen tha railronds and the water routes §a n hopeluss ond.” It is hope. less so far s ylolding any profit to the rall- ronds engaged int.
