On an examination of this will be seen ihat in some cases, the mount- demanded by rMiroad companies for ti-rmsponatioD oi ihe mails is more than two hundred per cent, higher than is paid for coach service, upon roads for- mins connecting links between different rail road companies, upon the same i i route, and that too where the night service upon the railroads is less than that performed in coaches. Such demands deserve more consideration from the fact that, while at the recent lettings in N.Vorb and in tha six Eastern States, the accepted (service by coaches and other modes ot conveyance has been secured at an average saving of twenty txo percent, upon the cocln-cis of 1837, there are but few instances where tbe demands of incorporated companies have not been increased in such a as impoved upon me the necessity tf suspending the conm-cis.
