' ' - .. .V-.VV:8c A;vyV ' iiliBi; We notice among the bills, passed, by the Legislature this week, one Ithat if applied to all the roads in -thef State, would save the lives of -many cattle We refer to the bill that makes engi neers and conductors on the Carolina Central Railway liable to indictment for running oyer stock. ;We do not think it just, however, to make this law apply to the Carolina Central Railway only as we presume quite - asi much care is taken by its employes as by those of any road, to spare the lives of the stock- of those living on the road. 9 A law requiring a jf airer and more prompt settlement of damages for killed and crippled stock would be nearer what the people need. Monroe Enquirer. Some of the above propositions! accord with our views ; from others we dissent totally. We do not agree wth the spirit of . the bill as originallyf intro duced There Is neither rhyme nor reason in endeavoring to hold engineers and conductors responsible to the law for animals ; killed by trains of J which they may have charge. Conductors are back in their trains and have no more knowledge of what is ahead than the passengers, and no more ability to pre vent the killing; of a cow than one of these. As the supposition, manifest in this bilListhat engineers kill cattle from pure wantonness, the most charitable construction that can be put upon this is that it proceeds from pure ignorance. Any man ought to know that there are few things which an engineer dreads more than to run over a cow. To do so is to run a heavy risk of ditching his engine if not his whole train, and to take the attendant risk! of losing his own life along with that of numbers of passengers.' Cattle are frequently killed and no damage results to the train, but great risk is encountered and accidents do often result from this cause. Conductors have no more to do with the killing of cattle than the man in the moon; engineers, however . wan ton they may be, and however little they may have at heart their companies interests, will always have an eye to their jobs and to their precious necks and kill as few as possible. But if the law is fair for one set of men it is fair for all. To single out the Carolina Central Railroad and apply it there alone is unjust and looks spiteful. Such legislation should be beneath the dignity of a General Assembly. The bill, we believe, has not passed the House ; we hope it will not. We are quite well aware of the fact that it is both fashionable and popular to legis late against railroads, and unfashion able and unpopular to say a word in their favor; nevertheless, we lift a voice against any uch discrimination and for the credit of the Legislature trust that it will put on our books no such puerile statute as that proposed. Our Monroe contemporary, speaks of the need of "a fairer and more prompt settlement of-damages" for cattle kill ed or injured-on railroads. The rail roads might insist with some cause for more " fairness." It is notorious that they have to pay largely in excess of its valne for everything killed on their tracks. When a $10 cow, too weak from starvation to be able to step off the tracks is killed by a train, she in stantly becomes a blooded animal worth, $25 or nothing. The owner summons his neighbors and they put an extrava gant value upon her, and the railroad has to dance up with enough money to buy two better cows. This is a solemn fact. We do not mean to say ihat this is always the case ; it is too frequently so, however. - The railroads may ami do sometimes bear down very heavily upon jthe jpeopjt Jbutj therev are some people who, wtin they have the oppor tunity, do not hesitate-for ti moment to "dig" the railroad and.rtbAt mercilessly. As to this matter of paying for cattle killed, the jgorsuitv pf forcing railroads to do it "is" be doubted anyway.

The "real remedy;; for j the existing s wrong, if wrong exists and a remedy' is sought, is onVwhlch; will1 confer many other benefibt this will be one of the least of them. We refer to the gen eral introduction of the stock law.' Un der its operations no stock is killed on , raflrpads; tod ycxrase nosettlcments to be madel between the people andthese companies.'. 1 .; ' ; ; Hot statistics of yellow fever in New Orlean show -that three men; were-; taceiiuiQ:teQrti . death, rat among jthemaff'per'eeht greater than .among ) the ; women. : The children, howeyer auff ered-even "worsa. than the male adults, for.while'only one adultr.in, twelve Mck, jdied, one out of every nine Bick-cnudren-teU victims to the epidemic .The most remarkable difference, liowever is icxhlbited in re gard to color.- The percentages of whites takexi"li(W&l?,V) negroes I t wasohlyj & per, -cent, j the death rate Of the whitd population1 Va of the negroes 2.5 per cent.: 'ine negroes ap psar also ta have beenrattackje4 lb.y the disease later on tnan tne wnites.
