THE C.LOSEOF THE RAILROAD WAR.
The great railroad contest which has been
going on for some months past, has closed. The
foer great linen between the 'seaboard and the
'West have entered into a new a3reement as to
fares and „freights. The details hare not yet
,reached us, as the 'matter was only concluded
'.Saturday, , but the fact has been officially t7O-
graphed by Col. T. A. Scott; Superintendent
of the Pennsylvania Road, who has ordered the
restoration of the old rates.
The New York Herald, of Saturday, says :
The cost of the quarrel thus terminated is the
best guarantee for the permanence of the pre
sent settleffient. Few railroad managers will
have the courage to undertake to renew the
game of suicidal competition in view of the
enormous losses which the late two months'
fight hare involved, and of the wide spread
mischief they have occasioned. Not only have
the four great roads themselves been running, if
not ; at' loss, at. least without profit, but all
their connections East and West have, under
the system of "prorating' now in vogue. shared
their sacrifices. Roads in_ Ohio, Indiana, Il
linois, Michigan, and even in New England,
have lost money - - in consequence of the con-
Additioral discredit has been thrown
upon the railway system, and the natural re•
covery of the railroad interest from the cri.,is of
18,57 has been retarded. The natural cberse
of traffic has been disturbed; goods de4ettelied
from New York to Men This, Tennessee, have
traveled over the. New York Central, while
other good destines] for Ohio have been taken
from New York via Philadelphia. Tin
ce ca
tion of this unnatural state of things, and the
restoration of prices to n scale which, while,
fair to the public, will enable the railrealt
earn moderato dividends, will naturally exerl
else a favorable influence over our financial .
markets.
The effort made by the New York Roads tc.,
shut out the Pennsylvania from a fair and equal
competition for the Eastern budneis centering
in New York, has thus signally W -. Its su
perior advantages as a through line, in connec •
tion with the Pittsburgh. FL Wayne and Chi
cago Road, have enabled it to carryon the con
test with less injury to itself than the • other
routes suffered, and it finally brought the New
York railroad .managers to, a , realizing sense
that there was ne.use in contending against
such odds to maintain a position commercially
wrong, by a reduction of fares to such a rate
that they were compelled to give in, and, agree
to a fair system, which is all the Pennsylvania
Rend ever asked. .
Since the above was written, we have receiv
ed the New York Evening Post of Saturday,
with the following :
We have official announcement that the rail
road quarrel is at amend, and that portion of
the public who expected to travel and export
goods at the eicpenseof the companies, or rather
the stockholders; are suddenly disappointed,
all the,olllees this morning putting rates to the
old titfinattiii.'. 'The Ttrie Ritilretul "COMPanY

St: Nicholas last' night, bet upon the . basis of

only remains the preparation of an advanced

.
Since my communication addressed to'
you on the 3d- instant , in relation to the charges
preferred agOritt Gideon G.: Westeott, post
master at Philadelphia, he has filed in this Do- , :
pertinent various affidavits and a printed lir
guMeat in his defense, which have been thor
oughly examined intPcorisidered: As the case
is now regarded as closed,' I beg to express.
briefly, the views which lentertain of it. The
.papers submitted since the ditto of my former
letter ''do not change the aspect of the facts
as then presented, nor. in an any manner weak.
'en tho moral .and legal inferences to be drawn
therefrom: - •
- The.accusation against Mr.'Westcott,lLS then
recited, is this: That at theelose . ef the second
quarter of the year - 1857, he discovered there
was a deficit in the cash on hand, as compared
with the accounts. of:tiie receipts of the office,
or $'1,52.5 How or,by whom this suin had
been abstracted was nut: shown, nor could it be
ascertained. =- 1 n :what , ilirection. or, with what
vigilance or skill the investigation was pursued
does not appear. It does appear, however,
that -the inquiry did not result in attaching
suspicion to any one employed of the_ otlice
more than another. Mr. Westeott, in hi letter
'to this department of the 9th of February,
1859, speal:iugof the deficit, uses this language:
"It then became clear that considerable sums
had been abstracted from the tills, but whether
by tho clerks in charge of, them or by others,
it aces inip,,ssia/c 14k tell in an office where the
money is nece.sla •ilr much exposed, and where
more than a hundred persons had frco access.to
it before it was returned to II1Q."
Having thus hi owledgo only of the amount
of the loss, but uo knoWledgo whatever of the
thiet or thieves by whom the money had been
stolen, he determined to hold his clerks, and
other employees responsible in a body, except
ing therefrom thirteen in number, Mr special
reasons given, which reasons seem to have bad
no connection with the supposed guilt or inno
cence of those thus excepted. Ile accor.litigy
retained the larks of those—fifty-sewn to
number—upon whom the contribution was to
be levied. This end was accomplished, mind the
facet concealed from the ILliail.inent, by having
receipts signed—some of tio:2m.blunk, to b e af
terwards tilled up—for sums anfOunting Tn.

conduct in preparing and presenting to the

bo,false, : claians attention .118 grave offense
againstthe ;servico..' , .'Ttiii; is: , growine,etill:
for the repression of which too much solicitude
cannot be felt, 'or too much vigilance exercised.
From the 251st section of the Rules and Reg
ulatlon's 'of thOPOst offlce:Dap&tariont4hei knew'
that he was entitled to no "allowance or re
muneration for losses by fire, robbery, or
,theft."
He was aware, therefore, that if he reported
$1,525 as lost by " theft," his voucher would be
rejected:: Hence; instead of 'reporting Abe'
truth—the theft—ho chose to report a false
hood—the pretended payment to the clerks. It
is wholly unnecessary for the purposes of this
inquirk to ascertain whether he was personal
ly concerned in having the receipts signed in
blank. This was but a convenient means for
the accomplishment of a given end; and this
end was not only directed, sanctioned, and
adopted by him, but. is now sought to be vin;
dicated in his - defense. Too whole-adminis
tration of the. government r as heretofore sta
ted, reposes upon the integrity and truthful
ness of the vouchers furnished by its disburs
ing officers. Such a subterfuge as that now
under discussion, if tolerated, while tending
to destroy all faith in what has been hitherto
so implicitly confided in. must open the widest
door to fraud and peculation. The principle
involved in its character is so important and so
sacred as to oxcludo from view all results
merely personal' and private in their nature
whioli may follow its assertion.
• Neither the proofs nor the argument offered
by thodefensealter very essentially the original
aspects of the case. The first point attempted to
be . maintained is that Mr. Westcott was not
responsible for thesl,s2s stolen from the tills
of the office, because in fact it. had never reach
ed his hands. It cannot ho required that such
a doctrine as this should be gravely refuted.
The money, in legal contemplation, was as
much in his posthssion while in his drawers, as
if tt had been in his pockets. The clerks were
his agents. held their offices from him, and he
was liable for their conduct. Their receiptof the
funds was his receipt, and their custody of
them his custody.• Such was his own judgment
of the transaction when it occurred, As in the
largest. post ollices of the country the moneys
are handled entirely by clerks, if the principle
under which Mr. Westcott now claims to shel
ter himself could prevail, nearly all the reven
ues of the department would for a time be in
hands absolutely irresponsible.
The next position is that he haa a right to
compel his clerks en 711(1ASO to contribute to make
good the alleged deficiency. Of this •I have
sutliciontly spoken. It will be observed that
these two positions nro in direct' conflict, and
may well be left to destroy each other. If he
WIN not responsible for the money, then most
ehatrly he had no mural or legal authority to
en fore., its restoration by the means adopted.
If he had such right then it must have been
on the express ground that he wits so responsi
ble. In truth, neither the one position nor the
other is at all maintainable.
It is not alone the legal aspocts of the defense
that are thus confused and contradictory.
When the Department communieatexl to Mr.
Wi:itcott the charge preferred against him, his
respotrai was a stout and eniphatic denial. His
letter t,, the Postmaster tlenerul, under date of
ed February, ISO. opens with the following
language:
•-$11:: I received your letter of 3lstult. saying

ground thus boldly taken, and r<su that of
