There can be very little if any
grot at the movement whioh is said to
be going on to transfer the Delaware
Weetern Railroad to the Pennsylvania
Company. It is true that the first
named is a local road and to the citl
generally belong the credit of
bnilding it, and on this aooount there
may be some who would like to con
tinue it under the present local man
agement, but at the same time it must
he plainly evident that hemmed in as
it is by other great railroad lines.it can
be anything else than
reus
a mere
never
dependency living upon the favor of
corporations which control nearly all
the freight sent over it. For iu»tanoe
a large amount of coal is ihipped over
the road for use in Wilmington but ev
from off the Penniyl
ery ton comes
vania railroad, and as there are
psting lines far this part of the trade,
the little home company is oompelled
to aooept just snch prioes for carrying
freight as are doled out to it by its more
powerful neighbor that is In posses
sion of the approaches
mines. It is true that there It a great
deal of manufacturing along the line
of the Delaware Western road,the ship
ment of the products of which it con
trols, hut hero again it is met with the
same difficulty at this end of the line,
as all the kaolin, the snuff and iron
manufactured, in order to reach the
plaoe* where they are shipped have to be
reehipped at Wilmington. Thus is this
little local line of tweuty miles only
hemmed in and crossed by two powerful
com.
to the coal
corporations, the Pennsylvania Rail
road oompany at its western end and
the Philadelphia, Wilmington & Balti
more Railroad on the east. By great
effort and expense it might be extend
ed sixteen miles farther from Landen
berg to Oxford, hot even if this was
done it would be only a road thirty-six
miles long and would be hemmed in
the same as it now is, and would be
just as dependent ujwn other corpora
tions for freight as it now is with the
exception of a little addition in local
freight which would not pay the inter -
est on the expense of bnilding the ex
tension.
The annual reports of the road since
it was sold to the first mortgage bond
holders show that short as it is, it is
able to sustain itself, a handsome divi
dend being left for the stockholders af
ter payyig all the running expense,
and the interest on the first mortgage
bonds. The road runs through a very
productive section of country, romantic
in the extreme and abounding with
manufactories, some of them very ex
tensive ones, of various kinds, and for
a local road it is probably better sup
ported" with local freight than any
other short road in the country with a
terminus at a email country village,
and at a junction with another road
that has the power to crush it when
ever it saw proper to nse that power;
bnt no matter what these facilities of
trade have been, nor the advantages
which the road possesses, it conld be
made still more productive by having
inch an owner as the Pennsylvania
Railroad company, and Wilmington
wonld no doubt be largely beneiitted
by the change. What onr local rail
road companies,no matter how efficient,
has been unable to accomplish to in
crease the^carrying capacity of the
road and to benefit the city of
Wilmington also, the Pennsylvania
railroad is able to accomplish,
when it becomes the owner. Of oourse
in snob a radical change as is contem
plated, and with the influence which
such a monstrous corporation as the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company natu
rally possesses, there is a possibility of
expecting too many benelits fiom snch
» ohange, but it does not require any
'ong stretch of the imagination to see
tuat the company in taking control of
the road has more in view than the
profits arising from the carrying of the
local freight found along a line of twen
ty miles, and that arising from the coal
and lamber required in the trade of
Wilmington. The change wonld give
to the Pennsylvania Railroad Company
what it has never yet had—an eligible
and economical outlet and freighting
point on the Delaware. It is true that
after years of toil and expense the com
pany, by bnilding a branch of some
thirty-five miles from Pomeroy to Dela
ware City, became possessed of a good
•hipping j stint for coal, hut owing to
a lack of local freight support,
the road became a burthen, and was
■virtually abandoned. But in estab
lishing that outlet to the trade of
the Delaware at Wilmington tha
prospects
eanse here would be a Delaware river
■hippiug point backed by a rapidly
growiDg city of 40,000 inhabitants,
abonuding in large manufactories which
wonld 1m largely increased if the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company establishes
a shipping point on the Delaware river
front, as it wonld bo moat certain to do.
In the inception of tho construction of
promising, be
more
the Delaware Western, thaw the Wil
mington k Wes Urn rand, the building
of wharves and the eetabllahnsent of a
•hipping point on the Delaware river
front was contemplated, but owing to
the expense of building the road
through the rooky projection* of Red
Clay Creak, it was found that more
meooy would be required than the lit
tle local oompany could oommand, and
the enUrpriae was abandoned for the
time being. Thia, however, the Penn
sylvania Railroad Company would be
able to accomplish, and nnless they de
extend the road to the Delaware and
bnild wharves there the oompany will
not reap the full measure of profit that
would be brought within their grasp by
becoming the owners of the Delaware
Westein railroad. From these and
other reasons which might be advanced,
there is no cause for regret existing on
the part of the people of Witmiugton at
the proposed change.
so
The Clip Moepltel ■■«* Whlehep
Bills.
As the assistant editor of the " Oh
Mtte * fc is also a city official, and one in
whom we place much confidence, and
through his official relations has access
to the books in which the city accounts
are kept,we presume that we oan reason
ably rely upon the figurea Whioh it
uses in its expose of the amount and
cost of the whiskey bills of the City
Hospital sinoe January first 1679.
is a very well ascertained fact that the
patienti in the City Hospital do not
average three per month, and some
times there are not more than one in
the institution and yet it is remarkable
that for nine mouths it took 1221.76
worth of drags »nd *49.30 worth of
liquors, mostly whiskey, to either care
or kill them. It may be possible that
a considerable part of the *221.76speut
tor drugs covered whiskey bills also,
but whether they did or did not, is not
material, but the impartial reader will
be struck with the amount of drag*
and whiskey it takes to run a hospital
with less than an average of three pa

It
tionts a month in it.
wondered at, that there are suspicions
that much of that liquor was used for
than lor the relief of
other purposes
the very limited number of patients
sent to the City Hospital, and this oir
enmstanoe goes far towards strengthen
ing the declarations of Mrs. Ziegler,that
jolly times were of frequent reourreuce,
though we think that in some of her
declarations as to who participated in
theso festive occasions, she is slightly
mistaken. Besides this enormous drug
and whiskey bill, furnished gratui
tously by the City Council for an
of about two or three persons a
aver
age
mouth, it must be remembered that the
City Council pays the Superintendent
of the hospital *4 a week lor boarding
the patients, besides paying for the do
mestic help required. Hy a rule of the
hospital it is required that each patient
should pay for his own
friends who put him there were to pay
it for him. The collection of these
board bills seems to have been eulirely
neglected by the Superintendent and
the hospital committee, and according
to the way the accounts stand, not more
than about $1G have been collected from
them since within a year past. This
makes a very dear hospital for the tax
payers of Wilmington to support,
mitting that there are on an average
three persons in the hospital all the
time, which is a very large allowance,
the board bill lor the year at #4 per
week, would be $000. The drug and
whiskey bill in the same ratio for the
year would be $338.83. Two helps at
$2 a week and board at the same rate
allowed for patients would be $5.20
more including board, drugs, whiskey
and hired help. This amounts to
$1458.83. To be added to this is the
Superintendent's salary of $500, the
physician's salary of $200, and the fuel
bill ol not less than $150, incidentals
$100, and interests on $27,000 purchase
money $1020.00, and it will lie found
that it requires atxjut $4028 at the low
est calculation to keep up a city hospi
tal for the accommodation of about
three patients a month on au average.
This is paying dear for an experiment
whioh has not only resulted in an un
necessary expenditure ot inouey but in
the disgrace of some of the city officials,
and now the best thing that can be
done will be to abolish the City Hospi
tal altogether and that as speedily as
possible.

Thh "Gazette" would not publish
auoli newe as the city hospital expose
though it knew all about it, aud won
derful to relate it says it rejected Mrs.
Ziegler's affidavit. Yea, it had too

it to publish suoh a slander.lt wouldn't

doubt the reason why it did not publish

it wanted to shield its friends as

it had already shielded repeaters.
Jbkk. rtavis in spite of all that can
be said is a favorite with the Derao

their votes for Davis.

angle to the South when it reached
Delaware, had exteuded straight on to
the Delaware river, Wilmington would
have been some four miles north ot the
line and would have been elassed as a
prosperous and enterprising Northern
city. By looality, in business enter

A couhxkpoxdkst from New Caitle to
an evening paper in taking exception*
to our remarks in reference to the
prisoner Francisco Matron in New
Castle jsil who complained of harsh
treatment by the warden, takes occa
sion to say that Marron is a bad charac
ter and tried to escape from jail. This
may be all true, but that does not war
rant the ill treatment he complains of,
and whioh is not denied in the letter of
the New Castle correspondent.
Poi.mcai, Wkathkh Prohabii.itiks.—
Indications of a storm on Tuesday next
on the Atlantic coast from Delaware to
Maine, extending to the lakes, follow
ed by fleroe Republican thunder and
lightening. Great danger to be appre
hended to Democratic flats by Republi
can floods. The dead oalm in the Dem
ocratic ranks, is liable to be followed
by rising fieroe Republican winds and
rousing Republican majorities in New
York and Pennsylvania.
Vick-President Wueblbb is numbered
amongst the Republican stalwarts. He
says he has no notion of "voting in the
air," and he recently declared that:
"Mr. Cornell now carries the flag ot the
Union upon the skirmish line for New
York's position in the great fight of
next year. I follow that flag wherever
I see its folds, whoever may lie the
standard bearer."
Thk persecution of Mrs. Ziegler is
resulting about as we
predicted it would. U has brought to
her aid able lawyers to defend her and
plenty of bondsmen to keep her from
going to jail. The boomerang has
boomed.
