Rut the Baltimore. American concedes very frank!y, what we have heretofore asserted, that «if the Baltimore and Potomac railroad had professed to be a direct road to Washington, 1 wo mever har been chartered.” Ts obtain its addi- ional rights it had to straggte both in Con- | gress and the Legislature of Maryland, and | the upholders of vested rights came galJantty | to their support. The interests of the people of the two cities and of the country in’er- vening, were regarded as of no importance. The imerican is dommg good service to the people of Maryland by opening their eyes to the fact that the obstruction policy dictated by | the Bsitimore and Ohio Railroad is really mos! disadvantageous to their interests. Railroads that follow the short-sighted policy of neglect- img way-trade and travel in the pursnit of through business sre of little advantage to the country through which they pass. Under . | system of healthy competition for way-trade _ and business, such as woald grow up with the establishment of a net-work of competing rail- roads in Maryland, that State would double its population and wealth within the next d ie. Instead of being the most <parsely settled State im the Union north of Washington, it would Bave flourishing villages at stations a mii ‘apart op every road, as 1s the case im the States further north, that are grifironed by rarlroads But the Senators of Maryland aad others who undertake to speak in her behalf seem to pre- fer that her territory shall remain old sedge. fields for the next hundred years, rather than possible competitive harm shall come to the monopoly railroad interests of that State or to the phantom called “States Rigi —1t isa hopetul eign that the people of the West sre kicking against the burdens Ini’ upon them by the great rarlroad combina. , tions. The managers of ihe leading railroads of the country bave, year after year, been effect- ing combinations by which competition was desiroyea, and the rates for the transportation of freught and passengers were advanced. ‘Thus earniugs were increased, stocks watered. dividends declared, and the railroad managers generally were making an amazingly good thing of it at the expense of the people. In the North west, however, the consolidation’ screws have bern puton ina way to arouse opposition ‘The Tiinors Legisisture has passed a law reguizting the charges on railroads in tuat State. It has gone tbrough both branches by decisive majorities, but having been amended ‘ma the Lower House. ithas gone back to the Senate for concurrence. This is an indication of the feeling that prevails on the subject in that State. The people have been oppresse:i by most powertal, dangerous and unscrapn- lous monopolies. Hence thie legislation ‘This toreshadows the battle that i< to be fought throughout the country. Now you see it,and now yon dont. Ths inaugeration Ball, we mean. First, it hove im sight beautifully, and very plainly: then i! faded away. Then it appeared again; and then it disappeared. And now it is just above the horizon once more. But whether it will rige to the zenith of full fruition in a blaze ot glory. or sink sgaim into oblivion, remaius to | be seen.» We bave already chronicled the faci. as it was generally understood. that in consequence of their imability to procure a suitable place for holding it. and for other reasons. the orizi- nal committee who proposed to provide the ball usually given on the evening of inangura- tion day bad about concluded to omit it on the cccasion of General Grant's induction into office. Acting on this supposition, a number of Prominent ertizens of the District. irrespective | of party, who were not willing that 4 usage whieh came in with the early days of the K public should fail in the days of its strength, de- | termined to supply the omission, and to thrs end | they bad taken some effective steps, incind- ing among other things the raising by subscrip- tion of a considerable sum of money and the partial promise of the use of the north wing of the Treasury building as the place in which their ball or reception should be held. But 2! this point comes word that the original com- mittee were not dead, but only sleeping, and that they held meeting yesterday afternoon. atwhich, it was concluded to make an effort to get the Senate to reconsider its action re- iusing the ure of the Capitol for the affair, and, if that could pot Be done, to ty tor the Tress. ary building: but, at any rats, to properly mark the event by some sort of su entertain ment of the character originally contempiated Wander these circumstances, it is likely that the citizen's committee will retire from the field and await events, and should the effort tail & second time they will probably step in again and try to put it turough Of course there will be no rvairy and no divided effort im the matter. As we under. stand it, one party simply proposed to do what another may omit or tail to do. And to the public it matters little by whom it is done, so it is vet done. But we admonish ail hands cou. cerned that there is no time to spare if it is 1 he @ success. As the political papers say aboat election umes: «The time for argament bes passed, the time tor action has arrived.” a eceiecaesceeiind ‘We see it stated that Mr.S.N.

At latest accounts, Mr. Cushing bad left Bo- gota for Panama, and it was expected that he would leave the latter piace for New York by the steamer of this week.
