Cemetery Meeting. -

The meeting adjourned to be held this
week Wednesday evening, at Ely’s Hall, has
been adjourned to meet there on the 16th,
so that the committee may have more time
to examine locations. This is a most .im?
portant matter and ought not to be incon-
sideratcly acted upon.

The committee appointed for Upper Nor-
walk, to -.confer with. the South Norwalk
committee, are Messrs E. C.’Bissell, J. P.
Beatty, Asa Hill, Charles Sherry, A. H. By-
ingtou. We think locations may very nearly
be determined upcn by the committee, and
the enterprise so far mapped out. as to be
submitted to the meeting of the 16th, when
a general meeting of the whole town'should
be convened, and doubtless will be.

- - THAT’S MEAN-The HartfordPosl has a
very tantalizing Way of poking in.its Legis-
lative conundrums. For instance; it asks
“how many members ‘of the Senate and

House, have law ‘partners,"‘retas'ned” for-

ths great railroad fight i The next we-know
it will propound the query. of how many,
lawyers and bummers have bccn'hs'red to
get four senator-hi vctes, and how much
money, does the New Haven Railroad pay for
’em? Also, how many members have free
passes over the New York & New Havan‘ do
Naugatnck Roads? we warn,our friend
Bromley, that if hc.persists5in this course,
the dignified-President ofa monster monop-
oly corporation. will scrape up some private
letter he has written to sOmebody in New'
York, and have it read to the Railroad com-
mittee. The Post isn’t posted as to the;
umenitiesand delicate breeding," governing
our Bishop-ric. Gentkmon will differ, you
know, on questions 'of taste. . 3, ,. '

were-made by President Bishop of the New

edt. His mosteag‘er ‘questionings all termi-
nated in this assumption. That-in his own

rest assured that they will‘rcert‘ainly have
the opportunity of continuing this disgrace-
ful waéte of ' treasure. The assumption al-
so,-cf an air of invaded rights put on by the
dapper president, also challénged remark. '
One listening to the trial and unscquainted
with the merits of the case, would really
suppose that the petitioners had been guilty
of some gross impertiuence towards the
New Haven Conipany‘in daring to make
such an application to the‘ people’s represen-
tatives. But. to an epitome of the testi-
mony, .

Ex-mayor Sterling, of Bridgeport, Mr.
Plumb, of«‘Derby, Wm.‘C. Street and A. ~11.
Byington, of‘Norwalk, Senator- Shelton-and
others testified as to the inability ofthe-New
Haven road, tied dovvn as it is to the: Har-
lem, and only permitted to use that when
not occupied .by its own trains, to accommo:
date the business now pressing upon it.
That ' a new road could- be built, which
would cause an immediate expenditure of
five millions Of dollars in Our .‘state, and in--
crease the value-of the adjacentlands, more
titan that amount, and that without perma-
nently depreciating the revenues of the New
Haven road. The; most dCfinite and con-
clusive evidencp - given was j that a from Mr.
Culver, who testified on Thursday. Mr. 0.
now of Jersey City, a .civiliengineer, had
been engaged'o'n New YOrk road for Sever-
al months during the double tracking of that
road, and had examined the. Coscob bridge
at the instancs'of a legislative committee.
He made a survey from New RoChclle to.
New York, of a line nearly the- same as
that proposed in this project. On that l'nc
no draw-bridges were required, it 'bemg
very nearly-an air line. ‘He is nowengag-
ed on- Hudson river building 'the New York
and Fort Lee road, and is now connected
with the organization buildin’g the New
York Midland, from 03wego toJersey City.
‘There are .out of New York, on the Jersey
side, the outside route to Long Branch, the
Delaware and Raritan Bay, the Central Rail
Road, the Camden do Amboy,‘the Newark &

ittee. to their evident ‘

& Essex, the Midland, the Eric, the North-_
am of New Jersey, the New York -&. Fort
Lee, the Staten Island and Perth Amboy
and Woodbridge—all 'in operation or build-
ing. There is also the Dummy road of J er-
seyCity tO*_Bergen Point. Another road
the Western road of'NeWJel-sey, new build_
ing, will terminate at Hoboken. He de-
scribes the numerous branches operating in
connection with these roads. The Fort
Lee road would compete with the Northern
for about twenty-five miles; the greatest
distance between them being , but two miles;
the Midland— and the Erie would compete to
Patterson, being side by side, but a few rods
apart. He described other similar cases of
competition, several as long as the New
York. The Amboy and the Jersey City
compete to Philadelphia. There were three
parallel fines, not over three miles apart at
any point, competing for the business of
Newark and New York. The fares on
the New Jersey road,,wherc the travel was
large, was comparatively low. For a trip
from New York to Newark and return it
was two cents a mile; the average of the
whole lines being about two and one-halt
cents per mile. Between all the principal
.stations trip tweets are issued at reduced
ratcs,which has aided materially in build-
ing up towns in New Jersey. Cummuta-
tion was also cheap, and that policy had
doubled the local travel on the Erie road.
Elizabeth had doubled. its population in six
or seven years, owing to increased facilities
for travel. Other pointshad felt the same
influence. The local routes have bpilt up
trade and travel, and it has been estimated
by a careful statician that the population of
New Jersey has been increased 200,000 in
tcnycars, by drawing from New York and
Philadelphia. 'Had been connected with
six Organizations for the improvement and
sale of lands. The price of land along the
roads had increased fabulously ; theygreat-
estincrease, waswithin a radius ,of— them
3,000:to 4,000 feet of the depots—or Within
easywallring distance. Beyond that point
the land does not appreciate so rapidly.
Thetendencyis to build up3.towns and villa"-
ges around those depots—certain to do so
with the continued growth of New York.
This applies to points sixty miles distant
from New York, but at a. less ratio than
nearer. The increase of population comes
from young men newly in business, mechan-

ics'and clerks, who-are engaged in New

York, but wish to live more cheaply

than they can in thccity. From the opera-

tion of these {natural laws, should say that

with another line as proposed in this case,

supposing it to be economically built and

properly operated, Connecticut will get an

addition .of from forty to fifty. thousand, in.
addition to what will be drawn by (the con-

tinued influence ofthe New Yorkroad. He

thought the business of the New York road

Would continue toincrease. Thought the

land- lying a mile and a :half each side of. the

new road would increase in value more than

the costof the road. . ' ‘

Mr. Bishop conducted the-cross-examina-

tion. The Delaware and Raritan and Long

Branch roads compete only fer-the Long

Branch summer travel. The Camden and

'Amboy, and the New Jersey Central, .com-

peting to Philadelphia, have , been consoli-_

dated. The :Morris and Essex road, competg

ing for coal and other trade at Easton, has

“been leased perpetually to the Lackawana

and the Western road, so that thcyare practi-

cally one road, but the Lackawanua and its
connections would-comeiu compctltion with
.1110 Midland from Oswcgo. The examination
was with a view to showing that there was

no case to be found comparable with the pres-'

cut, and that'the competitions of lines, like

the Harlem and Hudson River, was ruinous

:to the stockholdersfin the latter case the
roads having passed into the control. of a.
single person. In the course of the examina-'
tion the witness said he did not know Ofany
place the same distance from New York .as
Norwalk, which had so many trains, as
were furnished by the New York do New
Haven road. He thought Norwalk'hud no
reason to complain ofthc read on that ac.
count“, '

‘John C. Campbell is the engineer who
surveyed 'the Portchester & Hurlc1u3fs'oacl,
which is to join apart of the purallel ling, and
is about twenty and one halfnlilcs long; At
Harlem river it was expected to connect
with the Second avenue dummy road, by a
bridge now building. The Second avenue
companyds now using steam down to 03d

route of thePort Chester road were unsui-
'lrtously‘ in favor of the road. It» was, 'pro-
posed to crOss under the‘New York road’at
Byram river so that there would‘be no dc-
tention oftrains.. He thought the building
of 'the’ proposed road wOuld increase , the
population Of Connecticut not less than 50,-
000. -' The“ draw-bridges would have to be.
about 80' feet wide, there were scarcely any
vessels going above them. ' Had 's'ccn . but
one pass in eight months. '

William DOe,‘ a earman in New YOrk,
had run nine teamsL- Been in the business
nine years. The freight depot of the N. Y.
road had not proper facilities for the recep-
tion of freight, being able to receive but one
load at a time, and the police were constant-
ly interfering to prevent crowding. At the
Camden Depot you can back up eight teams
at once, five at the Central, and at the
Hudson a great many. At the New Haven
but one team could. get up, and goods had
to be weighed on hand trucks; In the win-
ter if a man gets his load in in a day, he is
lucky. Have stood .there all~ day and then
paid for the chance. Had paid for a cOncern
in whose employ he was, as high as $30 a
day for teams standing. A team would ship
two loads a day. Thought that was doing
well, On the Central we could ship five,
and as many on the Hudson. Have shipped
ten tOCamden before three O’clock. Car-
men didn’t like to take business for New
Haven road if theycould' get anything else.
Have seen a line of trucks. waiting reaching
to West Broadway, full half a mile. Had
gone into the line in Duane Street, and af-
ter waiting all day, pas'd tho man an the depot
twenty shillings to get his load in. Had
paid out but little for delays at other points.

Frederick Block, of New York, 9. osmium,
gave substantially the same view of the lack
of facilities for receiving freight at the New
York 85 New Haven depot. Had ‘ paid to
get unloaded. '

Ralph Meeker, a New York reporter, had
given the subject of the rates of- Commuta-
tion, and the number of trains running from
New York to a distance of about forty
miles, considerable, attention, the result of
which had been twice‘published in the TM-
bane—Feb. 8 and April 12, 1869. He had
travelled on the different roads leading out
of New York, to obtain the fares, and ob-
tained . tables and- other information from
the ofiicers of the roads. Made a 'table
showing the comparative rates, etc, which
was carefully revised. A number of instan-
ces were given from the table showing the
commutatiOn rate of the New'Haven'. road
to be higher than on other roads out of
New York, and that in some instances few-
er trains were run to points inside of forty
miles. 'Mr. Meeker admitted that some of
the New Jersey roads had adopted the cou-
pon system for commuters, but he had been
assured by officials that it would soon be
abolished, and he was urged to stop pub-
lishing about it. As a specimen gave the
commuters rate to Rye, $94, 22% miles. To
a town on the New Jersey Central 21 miles
commutation was but $16. ‘Notified Mr.
Bishop that he was once promised a free pass
on a New Jersey line, but the railroad oflicial
lied to him and he never gotit. Mr.’_Bishop
did not introduce any pricatc letter, on the
subject however. '

The defence opens today and continues
through this week.

now charged by Insurance Companies so
high as to allow of any material‘decrease in
them? Are the profits of the Insurance
capital now in the field, so great'as tOjustify
any material reduction 'Of receipts?

If it should appear that Companies which
are now and long have been in the field, are
scarcely living on their receipts, would' not
a proposed material reduction of rates, (or
receipts pro rate. on amounts itfiured) depre-
ciate the value oftheir stocks ?

And if it were evident that for a Company
to do much business it is necessary to do
business less than-it costs, would‘mot the
public hesitate -tO do business with such
Company? Nay, in our proposed new se-
ries Of Insurance Companies, would our
capitalists and sound business men see in-
ducements to. take and pay for ithé stocks,
unless there were a fair certainty that it
Would pay good dividends l I am led to'
these queries and remarks from the recently
published Statistics of the: Insurance busi-
ness in New England and New York for the
last nine years. These statistics'have been
very carefully gathered and the result is to
me at least,’ surprising. I leave a copy at
your office by which, you will see that the
average net earnings during the last nine
years of the Insurance Companies doing
business in N ew' York and New England is
1.23 per cent lv—f‘A figure,“ says the com-
piler, “utterly. insignificant in view of the
nature of the business and the risk pssumed.”

The fact, Messrs. Editors, is that with a

profit of less than 1% per cent per year, no
Company can safely reduce rates as a rule;
and the dividends paid by present Insurance.
‘Companies, arise almost wholly from the'
earnings of their capital. This capital was
mainly invested in U. 8. Stocks at a low
figure. The market value has greatly in-
creased and they show large assets in conse-
quence. It is because the Insurance Com-
panies arc “ bloated bond holders” that.thcy
pay respectabte dividends, and not because
the Insurance business is or can be done at
suflicicnt profit to earn them. * * *

GRANTVILLE, May 20, 1869.

Mussns. EDITORS:

The readers of your valuable paper must
by this time be well assured that the inhabe
itants of this salubrious part of the town,
are a wonderful people; that we are not at
all backward in sounding our own praises
abroad, and letting our joys as well as our
sorrows be known. We have the nicest lit-
tle river—the prettiest scenery—the most

pleasant drives, barring the roads, the
biggest Hotel and the most unique Rail
Road Depot in the vicinity,-—and we must
not forget the Post Office, named by “'direct
interference” of the General Government,
which can’t be said of all the offices in the
country. We are also a good natured people
giving and taking pretty severe jokes with
perfect equanimity; but I am free to confess
that that little joke in your last weeks’ issue, ,
was rather too much for our capabilities.
After discussing the Gazette as usual, with
their. Tuesday morning coffee, it was highly
interesting to the student of human nature,
to note the effect of. the medicine upon dif-
ferent eonstitutions,—as the people assem-
bled as usual. One honest individual
“ couldn’t see the point’.’ atoll, and Ihought
the matter quite serious, proposing to ball
upon all the infants in the place (as is cus-
tomary here) to sign a. petition to the Grand
Jury and have the matter investigated in
the course of a year. or two, and see if the
facts were really as “ Mr., The People doc.”
stated. Another, who admired Burns said,
“we had a chcil taking notes,"-but this was
put down at once on the ground that notes-
were too scarce here to make it pay. 3

One pugnacious little fellow tried to fasten

it upon our honored X.‘ P. Andy, as he said

PROTECTION
3 ‘ , . T O . .

HOME INDUSTRY.
The NEW YORK TRIBUNE will commence; On
or about Junelst, the publication, in weekly chap-
ters of a treatise by its Editor on POLITICAL Econo-
Itr, designed more especially to‘elucidstc and defend
the policy, of PROTECTION TO HOMEINnus-rnv. 'He
expects to bring the work within. the compass of
twenty to twenty-five chapters of three or four, col-
umns each, and to treat the subject with such sim-
pllcltyand'drrsctnessthat few men can read the 'es-
says without at least realizing that the Protective
policy is either grossly misunderstood or deliberately
misrepresented by the champions of Free! Trade.
Thcpnbllc shall, at all events, realize tuatiwe,'w'ho
stand for Protection, habitually read and try'toKCOt'u-
prchend our adversarieuw'hile they ignon our wri-
tings and grossly caricature our arguments.

These essays will ultimately be printed together;
but, in view of the desperate sfi'orts of the Free 'Trs-
ders to forestall opinion and try to wrest a verdict
from a public which has not heard the case argued,
we ask the friends of Protection to aid as in giving

these, as they originally fall from the press, a gener-
al diffusion.

The Free Trade League, organized in this city, by
and in the interests of foreign manufacturers, is is-
boring assiduously through newspipcrs whlch it con-
trols, and by the distribution of tracts and pamphlets
to destroy the Tarlfi’ and surrender-our markets to the
importers of foreign manufactured goods. Their ef-
forts can best be counteracted by the dissemina-
tion of journals intelligently and continuously devo-
ted to the protection of American labor and the fos-
tering of American interests.

We shall print more than Two Hundred Thousand
of each in our regular editions; but we hope they
will receive still wider dissemination through the
formation of new clubs, (which we supply at a frac-
‘ tion over the cost of white paper) for Tun anu

Tums. _'

We believe that it will be for the‘ Interest or every
establishment in the country, of whatever nature, to
see to it that each workman is supplied with Tut
Tnlnlm: during the coming year. The question of
Protection to Home Industry is soon to be all ab-
sorbing, and it is of the utmost importance that eye-
ry voter shall be well informed on the subject.

Whoever would have these essays from the outset
must transmit their orders by the 1st of June.
