A good dial of censure Is being felt and ex; rtesed at the high tarlll schedules of the rallroade, regarding vlsltorato tho World's Pair, Tho rate u hlch has been ado ted from this city Is pronounced nit only excessive but nulrareous, and the ISmmi would Le glad If It had the means at Its com. maud to show lhat audi Judgment Is erroneous. It looks as though the comtlng llms had decided not to comlu from here, for this lattliular occasion, taking full advaula;u of t jo gnat crowds that aru tolerably suru to visit Ibuoiuolng of the l.xpoeltlou.
