BEB OUTSIDE FOR INTERESTING TELA- GBAPHIO AND OTHER MATTEB. The Inst namberof the United States Railroad end Mining Register discusses the question of the want of rsilrosd facilities by the National M+. tropohs and takes decided ground in favor of Congressional action to the extent of giving charter aid to Washington, Thecapital city of the ( nited States, built on territory ceded to ihe Geveral Government, ts under the jaris- cpot the National Congress: and, there. enlike the cies im the States, bas no ture to appeal to, for to buil railroads, wo be op Pinte Leese: of im- ved | corporat an v's Deb! Warhington is the most populous city be- | iween Baltimore and New Orleans, and rank< an the first class of Américan cities: but Wash- e only city of its size that bas no | od operated from it as a base, for the von and expansion of its trade.

Washington is a revenue o fthe Ralimore and Obso Railroad Com. b, of course, will carry food supply auonai Capital and passengers to and om the Natioual Capital. This, thoagh, is not the policy which expands a city imto-m= irepol importane+ aud gives it commercial incependence, (m thteontrary, it is the policy Which keeps acity it subyection, making it simply & revenue customer of a railroad corpo- zation that is pervaded with higher aims and er results for a neighbor city, whose com- al domination it spreads from year to yeer, over new acquisitions of intertradmz werritory. Washington has in Baitimore a precedent | and an example for ber own course in asking Congress to incorporate railroad companies to Giverge from Washington asa railroad centre— | Washington, the potitical centre of the Union, being without a railroad of ner own inany di- Tecticm, from the National Capital. From Washingtoa south the raiuroad to Alexandria is of exceedingly small commercial account, in a comprebeusive sense, since it is oaly seven miles jong, the Or Toad. reaching through to Lynchburg, and constituting * link in the Southern mail rou:e, beipg 'u BO respect & commercial arm of Wash- ington, since it is deminated by an influence interested in the commercial development ot | ovher loealiues. Tbe Richmond, Fredericks- burg and Potomac Railroad begins at Aquia | (reek, fifty-five miles distant from Washiag- ton ‘The Reptsier, Teterring t these facts, and | noticing im the same connection the series of | M bile Tecently introduced in Comgress to iacor- | porate several railroad companies, holds that of these several projects the “Natieaal Rail- rond North” and the «National Ratlroad South” are ot the widest significance, and would the | better reimburse Washiogion city, because they would make ita veritable railroad centre, ia the network of iron which connects all th értreding eitues of the Union. A railroad from Washington due north, mto Penatylvania, | Would make Washington independent of Balti. | tf more over communications of great “ogi and ecusequence, stretching north and east. A yollroad from Washington south, to connect with genuine and hearty ally of the Chesa- | peake and Obio railroad, would give Washing- ct communication with Cmeinnat: and ibe Obie valley, also with Richmond and lines Teaching into tha sontharn seatuerd Eiates | ow e and Alexandria Rail. | Onur correspondent “(o-operation,” gave in Thersday's paper some of the reasous for the fa:lure of co-operative establishments, bat we do not thik he went over the whole groaad, To our mind, one of the most serious defects 18 the system lies in the fact that those charged with their supervision oF Management do not feel that vital interest ia their success which is felt by an individual whose all ts invested ig. his bu-iness; and, hence, that the Gare im buy~ ing and the effort to extend business, by adver. fusing attractions ana polite attention to custo- mers, are wot exercised vo the same exteat that they are by the mau in busicessentirely on his accownt. ‘This latter point was illustrated very forcibly in the experience of a gentieman of our ac- quentance with the grocery store intely in operation om Ninth street, in thiscity. When the effort to establish it was being made he Was called upon and persuaded to «ubscride to thestock under the inducement that he would not only be largely the gainer in the cost price of bis purchases, but also in the protits of the concern, which were ceritin to be large and divided regularly. Believing that the prin- ciple mvolved was correct, and that certainly ore or the other of the promised results ought to be accomplished if the establishment were properly managed, he took one share of the k, oud paid im bis tea dol ia: In due time the store was under way, he called im 4 inquired the price of several staple ard. cles, with the view of comparing tt with tnat 2 for the same goods by bis old grocer & what the saving id be, ba’, to disgust, he was anable to get a ree ful or satisfactory reply any of his absequextly he called again and light purchases, but, not recaiving Aitention oF seeing the accomm). caning disposition to whwh he had bean ac. cusiomed under like circumstances, he bade adieu te bis tem doliars and shook the dast of the establishment from his shoes forever. Whether tbe experience of any other cus- tomers or would-be customers tallies with this ease or not we have no means of knowing, but we Lave no doubt the tailure of many of the co-operative enterprises is to some extent farrly chargeable to the causes suggested above, or to thers of like chara, Rows 4 jAINST CHAISTIANIT te ine shows that the Japanese have com- d & W8r againat Christianity.
