The houso com niitteo on Internal Improvements Hint .Inst (veiling purposing lotal;6 aomo action on the various railroad bills now offered and numbering twelve or fifteen of various linos ami colors, but Governor Drown, Col onel Hoxio, Major Cave and otheis liml just arrived and secured time to prepare tliolr statements as they had Just soon tho bills. To-niKut Major Cave will resent bis argument, to bo followed by overnor llrown on Monday. Tlio haste with whicli the bill, as talegraiilied to von, was passed day belore yesterday by both senate and bonne, limiting passenger tare Jo three cents per nillo, would seem to Justify tho criticism that the emergency lor the call ot this eitra session was not so much the important business of rcilistrictinir the state as to pay attontion to railroads. There hud been two bills pending: In tho re spective houses on tho question of reduc tion of faro, but the house having been no tified by tho senate Hint it had passed its owtit immediately adopted that as its sub stitute. A question Ims been since broached as to whether this is constitutional legisla tion, inasmuch as threo readings in tho ltouso wore not hud Hut I tako it that tho substitution, that is to say, tho acrcptauco without any change whatever, is legal, 11. U.L..I.I.. tl.ut Inuf nl Inn.. O m n:illBinui n.v j ww ....... J....W ture when tlio people are quiet on the sub ject of any alleged grievances whatever by tho roads, I hut this legislature should be so bent on "doing something," and In such unseemly haste. They huvo by their ac tion cut down the eurnings of corporations about which they nro uosolutely In tho dark. They worn without even tho light of such data as the comptroller'! report, not yet submitted, might furnish to them. For aught they know they liavo ilonu a most serious injury to institutions that hare built up their state to what she is to day in the general estimate; that have done moro to unify u statu sentiment and pride and so break down the idea of division intonepurato sections; that have done moru to ilevelon our resources, to liring immi grants into our borders, to prochiim our ad vantages to tlio world and so inuko Texas what indeed she therefore is, tho best ad vertised stale in this 'Jnion; to enhance tho valuations of uli kinds of properties, and lienco to reduce taxation, slate and county. All this they huve done, and now in hur ried haste that is at once lllSt'KKIUTAIII.K ANI1 MSUt'STINil, without waiting oueday or at most two days to "aHdi alteram partem," hear tlio other side, lest the li,hl of truth mid power flffucts should foil soiuu scheuio, our legis lature has done its do. This is tliouppeur nnce of things, at least, to tho calm and liberal looker-on. Momu of tho excuses offered would be amusing if they weru not so disheartening, I. a., they Jliavo legislated for the Interest of the roads, says oua, since they will gel more business at the price we tlx because the governor announced the advisability of doing something as per his call: because these corporations are growing too strong, rich and powerful, tind so an ad libitum. To mo it is a mailer of surprise that the bill did not embody the emergency clauso and inuko tho act operative at once. This would merely havo been of a piece of tint dark lantern work already done, llesides all this, there are now tillered over one doen bills, some of them undertaking to regulate and fix freight, one of the most intricate and complex problems that even puzzle skilled railroad experts. Hurely, suroly, hero is a case where "yooLB l""11 1! WIIKUR A&HKI.S rKAn TO Tlllt.Ul." AVhat uilschief will bo ollcded beforo ad inurnment 11 Is Hard to lire diet.

Have thev benelited tho people, their constitu ents? Will not tho companies Increase the prices or Irelglit, so as lo make (lie l.iriucr, the merchant and others pay moro than tho amount of dillereneo between tho ;) cents and the 6 cents, and so make those who remain at homo pay for those who ride about for pleasure, business or otherwise 7 Will not tlio cotton aim mo Hour, and me corn and tho bacon and beef producers and .consumers stiller ny tins txit. itii' 1 1, ni'u iiiitut'eiiv 4 Bntno politicians will only too quickly learn, when truih shall assert itself, that this effort toward cheap, populur lavor was moro, wi worse than an uborliou. Again, the result may be that hereafter the com panies will put on but one train per day, tbo mail, witti only one passonger couch, or perhaps not that one. ISsaeiigers will havo to tako tho "mixed trains." and thus con sum twenty hours, instead of tun hours, to got between points, and to save the dif Inriinea of two cents per mile, lose ten hours. which hitter, however, to the average legis lator, may not be of much value. On the tamo principle wo had bettor abolish the use of telegraph, and transact business re- 2 Hiring dispatch through I ho slower mails lone. Tho inlluenco exerted abroad will be most Injurious. Foreign capital that had been pouring In upon us, that kept our pooplo alloat and happy whan our crops were short ami when other souuiern states were 'inter, ing, will cease to How hither under tins niscoiiRAUi.ta blow ash iu.ioiit. . Kor the same reasons, manufactories that may In the luture be established may bo . similarly treated, ilia Impression goes abroad that capital is uniaie ot investment here : that our ixoula are hostile to Im provements ami advancement when they thus aeei to uriva "tno great civituer ' from our limits. Attention was called in tho abort and , quick discussion ot tlio measure, to tho :act that Texas was vet but snarselv settled, nd tbo present figure would scarcely pay the roads, especially beyond tho louih meridian. No comparisons with other states were inadu to show the facts. Let ua now look at aomo that might have hern lined : lletween New York and l'lill. ailidnliia some 1ft or luoie passenger iraina runs each day, each way, and they all no crowded, being In the very heart of popula Hon. The cost is 3 cents per tulle, and there iw two rninnettllvo lines, as we all know. lletween Haltiniorn and Washington City, a stream of human beings is constantly pour Inn tnand fro. and vet the litre is 3 cent! per mil. I. myself, paid on both Mutes last month this faro. Hptwcen New York mi' Irian Krancisco, the faro Is 3 cents pel mile for 3,'.M0 inllet. Theo urn facts as re mird heavy travel nnd long distance, an ilm T'ctis It'uUhitor demands tlui where conditions are reversed thf fare shall Imj the siune. And this, too, In Ilm face of the liberality of our roads that sell t Ml mile tickets at tho 3 cents figure. What can wo hope lor our slate when such dis rtelinn and views are seen to prevail at tlr cmiltol? We must merely fold our arm for Ilia time being, and consolingly mur mur tn ourselves a they mirsuo their mad methods to extremes, "They know not what they do," and ma iiofk or iik ath is aiui-sssmoit. but it would seem to be elsewhere than in this session that we must look for such realisation. , , J' F' E lOMMllla, Meilee, - AtrNasooitaMof tilt Herald.
