NOYES. - Editor, HE EVENING STAR has the fillest Local Circulation of any Newspaper in the World. and as au Advertising Medinm is worth more than all the other yapers published __in Washington. Nothing practical can be gained by s discus sion at this time of the proposition to move the railroad tracks in South Washington from Maryland and Virginia avenues to K street, Congress is the only power which can effect this change, and Congress is not in session. Nobody is pushing that proposition at present, end the protest against ench removal, now filed with the Commissioners, is not wisely timed. If that protest is intended, as indicated fn some quarters, to serve as a counter-move- ment in behalf of the railroad against attempts by citizeus to compel the railroad to obey the laws, it is merely amusing. For either it is based upon a ludicrous misconception of the purpose of the present crusade against illegal tracks, or else it places a ridiculously low esti- mate upon the intelligence of the public which it seeks to confuse into believing that there is difference of opinion in South Washington in respect to that crusade. But there is no disin- terested person in South Washington, or any other part of the city, who will petition that the railroad may be permitted to break the Jaws with impunity, and to retain illegal tracks on the assurance that its friend, the Congress of the United States, will at some future time legalize its infractions of the law. Whether the railroad continues to occupy Maryland and Virginia avenues, or hereafter is removed by Congress to K or some other street, it is the duty of the local authorities to hold it to a strict | obedience to the law. Only the streets desig- nated, and the tracks anthorized by Congress can be legally occupied. Standing cars may not | block the streets. Trains may run only at the legal rate of speed. Grade crossings must be guarded as provided by statute. All these pro- ‘visions of law are at present persistently vio- lated Boulanger’s bolt from Paris puts his sup- porters in an apologetic attitude for a time. His military failure to prevent himself from being punctured by the duelling sword of a civilian was, however, forgiven; and his ad- Shirt waists galore, thousands of dozens of "em.

Such cases are rarely heard of now-a-days. The epidemic slowly wore itself out; for, there being no longer a harrowing daily record of cases to upset the Rerves of newspaper readers and stimulate morbid introspection, false or imitative cases @id not occur. Just now we are witnessing a tendency to collapse among leading actors, Mr. Booth is reported as the latest victim. How much of his misfortune may be due to the fact that his overworked brain could not with- stand any longer the influence of seeing one and another member of his profession fail by the wayside, it is impossible now to say.

A bill just framed by a member of the legislature provides that hangings shall take place before sunrise in the morning, and be witnessed only by the sheriff snd bis deputics. one physician, one clegyman, three friends of the prisoner and six of the sheriff. the sole restriction on the choice of gnests being that no one of these persons shall be a newspaper reporter. The publication in « newspaper of more than the mere mention of the event is made a misde- meanor. The author of this masterpiece does hot propose that the world at large shall know what has happened behind the jail doors. The prisoner's frie and the sheriff's friends may turn the oceasion into an orgie, if they like, and who is to be the wiser? The clergyman may preack the next Sunday a sermon of warn- jug to young men, illustrated by a narrative of the scenes he has witnessed at the jail, but the paper which ventures to report his sermon will be fined. The physician may incorporate in a boand volume, or issue as a phamphlet mono- graph, his observations of the condemned man’s nervous struggles, the discoloration, the twitch- ing of the muscles, the gradual decrease of the heart-beats, and all the other ghastly details of the spectacle, and go scot free; but.if be Ventures to print it first in gne of the medical Weeklies. he subjects the editor to # taste of the rigors of the law!
