Save the Old Ship.
The rumor that the old 11 ig-shlp, Hart Hart
eord, which carried the psnnant of Ad
miral larragut, en the Mississippi, is te
be condemned and sold, has aroused a great
deal of sentimental interest, and the S m
Tranclsce Chamber of Commerce Is clrcu
Utlng a petition urging that the old ship
should be kept as the Knglish kept the
Nelsen's llig-ship, the Victory, and, as we
have preserved, the frigate Constitution.
Ye only have a hundred years of history,
and should certainly mike the most of
what we have. All the old war ships
should be saved, and in every great harbor
of the coast, both North aud Seuth, there
should be found some battle-scarred old
hulk as a constant reminder te Yeung
America of the gallant figure that their
fathers made in history, and the high
standard of courage that they may be
called upon te maintain. A formidable
war ship, badly crippled, arsues a biave
fee as well as a brave crew, and the rising
generation of both sections may some day
be called en te manifest the sams br ivery
against the enemies of a c m u m country.
It will net de te laugh at this movement
te save the worn out ships as mere senti
ment, because all patriotism is of the same
nature ; aud great thing h ive been done
for nations and mankind with no ether
guiding motive than this sun a sentiment.

ATltin Expltnatlen uttbe Effect et tbe Inter
state Cutumerce Law.
The following deliverance from the Inter
state commerce commission concerning the
workings of the uew law will be read with
interest :
Congress has net taken the management
of the railroads out of the bands of the rail
road ceuipr.!c. Itib simply established
certtlu general principles under which inter
state commerce must be conducted. It has
enacted in section 1 that all charges for inter
state transportation 'shall be reasonable and
just'; hes prohibited in section 2 all manner
of unjust discriminations; has forbidden in
section 3 all undue and unreasonable
prelerencea and advantages ; has required
In tbe same section reasonable and equal
facilities for tbe inter charge of traffic
and has prohibited in section r tbe
peeling of freight. Tbat, In substance,
is the inter-state commerce law. There is
nothing novel in these previsions. Tbey
simply bring back the business et the com
meu curiers te tne wen settled principles or
tbe common law. Yet no one can deny that
there was urgent need et tbelr statutory for
mulatien. Alleged difficulties in putting I
theia in operation only disclose, examples of I
me exieni te wmen iney nave eeen violated
In the past Tnese sections of the act are ex
presed in plain words. A construction must
be given te tbem in the first Instance by the
carriers and tbelr patron?. Gejd faltb exhib
ited in an honest effort te carry out tbe re
quirements of tbe law will lnvel e reasonable
aud fair-minded etlicials in no danger of
damages el tines. The elasticity of the statute
in their favor Is noticeable. Throughout the
act as It new stands in confessedly experi
mental form, there is exhibited an obvious
and a generous purpose te allow te tbe cor
porations ample scope la tbe conduct of tbelr
business as common carriers for tbe peep'e
and fair consideration of every reaaonaele
claim, while insisting upon just, Impartial,
open and consistent rates of charges te which
every citl7)n shall be subject alike whose
situation is tbe same. Surely the people
could net ask for less.
11 Tbe ltnguage ad tbe tenor et the act
wholly fall te Justify railroad managers, If
any such there be, who refuse te accept rt rt rt
sponielllties, decline te eiler rates, neglect
te announce conditions of trsillj, embarrass
tbe customary interchange of business and
impose stagnation upon trade while they
' stick in the bark ' of tbe phrases and ex
pressions of the law, Inventing doubts and
imagining danger?. It Is still mere unjusti
fiable for railroad companies te make use of
geueral clauses of the law, Ignoring its modi
fying and enlarging words and formulas in
order te Impose additional burdens upon
localities, trale, professions manufacturers,
consumers, cla-ises of travelers or empleyes,
straining and repressing every construction
in laver of tbe corporate treasury and quot
ing tbe new law as their authority for all
manner et petty exactions. The powers of
the commission are entirely adequate te cope
with such conduct, tbe existence of which is
net allirmed, although It has been somewhat
publicly suggested. The same statute which
enacts tbat charges for like service shall be
uniform te all also provides that charges In
every case aud for every kind and class of
service shall be reasonable and Just."

of soldiers, horse, feet, artillery, and even en

et the sovereign is exposed te various perils,

galloped about in every direction. The psrty
were fetched at tbe station by one of tbe
imperial carriages, which started etr at full
speed, and, alter crossing a bridge, strongly
guarded, arrived at a huge gateway, at which
the writer and bis companions had te ahew
their papers. Thence they were conducted
te a wlug of the palace, where the same cere-
uauuiu was gene inreugn, alter which they
were taken through a perfect labyrinth of
