Editor Agitator : There is a species of argument
very much in favor with some, which can not be too
strongly condemned by any fair minded man. Its
strength is Jn its falsehoods. Those are not the down
right lies which affirm that to be tme which la not
hat the skulking suppression of the truth which cre
ates a false impression and deceives as completely as
-the boldest lie ever uttered; An example of this kind
of argument was fhrnished the people of this county
by one of Mr. Magees* advocates over the signature
of u Improvement.** He gives a letter—evidently the
first of a series—containing'* proposition from Ma
gee to* ran a train over the road, twice each way
daily, excltuively for passengers and miscellaneous
freights. This was certainly a strange • proposition,
and it no doubt occurred to every reader that it must
have elicited some reply, but none was given ns.—
How tbe proposition was received is left for inference,
with the evident design on the part of the writer that
jthe public should infer that It was flatly rejected.—
Now, it is true such a letter was written. It is also
true that it was answered. Mr. Magee when he fur
nished his letter had the reply on bis flies. Why did
he not give the reply? Simply because he wanted
the public to he misled by the suppression of half the
truth. It is speaking very mildly of such a course
when we say that it ia unfair and lt is not
saying too much to say that we do not expect snob a
coarse from any man who makes the slightest preten
tions to candor. Tet it is in most admirable keeping
with all tbe arguments made use of by the half dozen
writers who have interested themselves In Mr. Ma
gee’s success. In order th*t the pnblio may have,
not half the truth, but “ the whole truth and nothing
but the truth** in relation the correspondence be
tween Mr. Magee and. the Tioga Company, we sub
join the correspondence itself, which we commend to
the perusal of every reader of the Agitator and to
the'pnblio generally.
“ Honesty is the best policy** is a maxim which,
though trite, is yet true. The Tioga Company do not
want to mislead or forestall public opinion. They do
not want to suppress a fact, or a letter. They only
ask a candid and impartial hearing, relying upon tbe
fairness and justice of their position in this contro
versy and not upon tbe petty arts and devices which
seem to be the sole reliance of some people.
We give the letters in their order.

L. H. Shattcck, Esq., Sup’t., Dear Sir —We do
not think the pnblio can be accommodated as they
ought to be under the present system of running the
Blossbnrg and Corning and Tioga Railroads, and be
ing anxious on our part to do all in our power to fur
ther their convenience as we have no doubt you are,
propose to unite with you in a separate* train, ex
clusively for passengers, mails, and miscellaneous
freights, to be run over the roads, twice each way,
dally. It would more desirable te have the
trains run through without delaying to change en
gines at Lawrencoville. If your Co. are disposed to
do it we will unite with you in the purchase of an
engine to be used exclusively for this train, and in
its running by such an arrangement, we certainly
could do tho business most satisfactorily to the public.
Please let me hear from you* Hastily and truly,
[Signed] ‘ D. S. Magee, Supt.
Office Tioga R. R-, Corxing, Dec. 15,^lSfi2.
D, S. Magee, Esq., Supt., Dear Sir —Ytfurs of the
12th is before me, in which you say we do not think
the public can be accommodated as tbey ought to be
under our present system of running the Blossborg
and Corning and Tioga Railroad Ac. In reply, have
to say, that our present system of running the roads
can doubtless bo improved, so as better to accommo
date the public, which we are anxious to have done.
But instead of adopting yonr proposition, viz: To
run two trains each way, daily, exclutively for passen
gers, mails, Ao., and thus incur a heavy needless ez
peose—we propose to unite with yon in running two
trains eaoh' way, daily, for jiassengers, mails, Ac., and
only add such an amount of freight as can be run
through without risk of delay or detention, and give
the public the amount saved by running mixed trains,
by reducing the rates of faro an 4 freight We pro
pose to unite with you in a course lumber,
lime, plaster, salt Ac., similar to the tariff proposed
to Hon, John Mageo last spring, and not agreed to
by him. We also propose to furnish excursion tick
ets to all passengers going to or from Coming and
returning the same day, at a reduced price, either at
half fare or a deduction o'f 33 per cent. We think
that low fare and low freight* will bo more satisfac
tory to the public than exclusive trains. Teu say “it
would be still more desirable to have the trains run
through without delaying te change engines at Law
rcnceville." In reply, will say, that arrangements
can bo made to change engines without any delay,
more than is necessary to receive passengers, bag
gage Ac., and as both parties doubtless have enough
motive power for the present business of the roads.
Instead of purchasing a new passenger engine, we
propose to pnt the expense into low fare and low
freights. I shall be happy to meet yon at Coming,
Bioss or Lawrenceville, and consult ?n reference to
adopting any-system of running the roads that will
be advantageous to tho companies or the public, if you
will give me one or'two days notice. Truly yours,
[Signed] L. H, Shattcck, Supt.
Andrew Beers, Agent, Supt., Dear Sir —l have
yonr favor of 15th inst. in reply to my letter of the
12th, and must say that we have yet to bear that the
people along the line of oar roads complain of rates
charged on passengers or for freights since Oct. 15,
when we commenced to operate our own read, nor do
I think they have any cause. No advance has been
made to cover the increased expenses, taxes, Ac.,
caused by the war, while other roads in this section
have put up rates from 5 to 25 per cent, to meet such
increased expenses. We have reduced the rates over
our road upon coarse lumber and other property of
■small value to the point which we proposed to the
Tioga R. R. Co. some few years since, say about
one half the former rates, which we understand to be
perfectly satisfactory. Complaint is made, and I think
justly, of irregularity in the running of our passen
ger trains, and especially of the detention caused at
the State lind in breaking up trains, changing en
gines, Ac. It was to avoid this cause of complaint
that I proposed to unite with yon in running two dai
ly trains specially, and only for passengers, mails,
and miscellaneous freights, 'between Corning and
Blossbarg, thus excluding coal and Itynber, encum
bered with which, and the changing of engines at
the State line, I think we cannot fully remove this
cause of complaint., Ratos over our road we will
regulate so as to avoid any just cause of complaint.
You can regulate them over yours in like manner,
and upon each party will rest the responsibility of
its own 1 shall, of course, be glad to coufer
with you in reference to improving the present mode
of running, and in regard to lowef rates in freights
over your road. Truly years,
[Signed] D. S. Magee.
[COPT.]
Coktotg, Bee. 1?, 1862.
B. S. Magee, Supt., Ac., Dear Sir — Your favor of
the 16th is received. In reply, I will say, that we
have yet to learn that the public complain of any de
tention on our road above Lawrenceville, and as we
before said, the detention at that point can be easily
remedied. Wo will engage to have an engine always
ready at liawrenceville on the arrival of every train
from Corning carrying passengers, (if they arrive
within an hour of your schedule time) to immediate
ly attach to the train, if yon wilt do the same on their
-return. By so doing all caus.e of complaint from that
source will baremoved. The delay caused by changing
engines ought and need not be more than threo min
utes. In reference to the proposed tariff for coarse
lumber, you say, ** wo have reduced the rates over
our road upon coarse lumber and other property of
small valne to the point which we proposed to the
Tioga E, E. Co. some years since, say about half the
former rates.” We have been connected with the Ti
oga ft. R. Cfi, for ten years past, and been pretty well
acquainted vrith all the business of the Company In
the transportation department and never before beard
of any such proposition as the above coming' from
any officer connected with the B. A G. R. B. Co,—
But we are aware that a proposition was some years
since made to the President of the E A C. E. B. Co.
to reduce rates on hemlock lumber and objected to
on the ground that such a reduction would cause dis
satisfaction with rates of freight on pine Inmtezi
Truly yours,
