As we learn from the 1VItiminis
lines lion. (’liarles Francos Adams,
for >oars a railroad commissioner of
Massachusetts, spoke before a eon
gressional committee oil the subject
The Federation of the Railroad
System.” Mr Adams has given the
object more thought and thorough
investigation than perhaps any man
in llie eountry, anil his opinions are
very where accepted as impartial
ind eorreet. Mr. Adams is opposed
to legislation on the present system
of railroad management, lie admits
the system is ns bad as any ean be;
it it violates the first principles of
■omnion earners. We extract the
following from the Times:
M r. Adams says—
‘•There is neither equal it y nor sys
tem. law nor equity, in the mailer of
railroad charges. A complete change
in this respect is a condition prece
dent to any just ami equitable system
of railroad transportation.” Kill Iiow
as this change lobe elleeted, these
evils reformed ? The cause of the
vils he ascribed to “excessive ami
unregulated railroad com pet it ion,”
iml to nothing else. The rapid con
centration of modern business in a
few bands, the leading characteristic
of our time and country, is the result
of this intensity of competition. “The
railroad managements recognize this
just as distinctly as any one else, and
indeed much more so; and from it
flows the whole system of competi
tive abuses. Every thing concen
trates, and the struggle is for busi
ness at the points of concentration.—
Competition leads to increased con
centration, and their concentration re
acts in the form of increased compe
tition: the result is simply the auni-
hilatiou of the weaker.*’ What is to
he the result ? “It can result in but
one thing,” says Mr. Adams, “the
roinplctc and absolute supremacy of
the one or the few.’’ The cure for
coin petition and the inevitable con
sequence of it is combination or
amalgamation. Railroads are now
etlecting both with surprising rapidi
ty in all parts of the country. The
weaker go under ami are absorbed,
and the stronger combine. Then-
arc ten great railroad combinations
now in the country, controlling prac
tically all its transportation, ami
these combinations will soon he re
duced in number and augmented in
•ope. Mr. Adams admits that this
will result in wliat is practically mo
nopoly, but denies that it is danger
ous and that it will advance rates—
On the contrary, he thinks that the
oinpletc confederation of the rail
road sysftm will lower the cost of
transportation and cheapen railroad
iratlie in every way. ami lie points to
the history oftlie Northeastern rail
way of Great Britain, the most com
plete monopoly in the United King-
loin. for the proof that amalgamation
is not injurious to trade and does not
tend to put the railroad system out-
ide of legislative control. The rail
road system now, according to Mr.
Adams, is like a mass of eels in a tub.
and you cannot tell which head or
tail belongs to which body. “Let it
• organize and federate,** lie savs
I. whether it means to do so oi
not, it render'i itself amenable to eon
I It comes out into the open,
where it can be go! at.”

The chief reason why men arc
ready to buy mining stocks is their
ignorance oftlie fart that mining has
never been a paying business in it
self. Any man who is worth listeu-
to in California will sav that the
vast fortunes, or the moderate protits,
that milling men have made in that
late, or in Nevada, came not from
the gold and silver ever found ; but
trading in mining stocks, from sell-
ug I hem to men, women and chil-
Ircn all over the United States. All
the earnings of hordes of laboring
men and women, the suviugs of me-
•liuuics and clerks, the profits ol
fanners and small traders. Hie fees of
law>ers ami physicians ami thesahi-
of clergymen that have been
poured into this mining-stork sink
iml Io*l would far outweigh every
lollar of silver and gold that has
been honestly found in working
es. This is why there are such
hordes of begging, half-starving men
Hid women in the'ami-lots ami r.ll
•ver California. Most of them have
•al lied money enough to he well oil
o-da> . and lost it on milling stocks.
The hahil of hoping to live by the
in such stocks has killed out
lheir w ills to work, if has supped
ir souls of enurago to face a fair,
industrious mode of life, ami sunk
them into the wrecks of men aud wo

Tammany Hall.
ITS HISTORY A X l» OltlKCTS —Will I A M
twvkd’h connection with tiik
k« MIKTY.
The Tamunuv II ill organization
onsi'ts of III 1 ce pails: lir*l. the m—
riely known as Go* ••Tammany
Society, or Uolumhiaii I Irdcr,” w Inch
was founded in 177!#. in the liflli
mouth of Washington's administra
tion, and was incorporated in I<St 15;
which erected the building on the
orucr of Nassau aud Frankfort Ms.,
formerly known as Tammany Hall,
and controls hy lease the present hall
mi Fourteenth street; secondly, the
ienerul Committee and (Assembly)
District ('(Mil mil lee of the Tammany
Hall Democracy, which are councils
of voters, and dale, with many inter
mediate changes of detail, from |X22 :
thirdly, the voters, usually about !H),-
000, or two-thirds of the entire Vole
oftlie cilv. who ad in harmony with
tin? committee and constitute llie
rammaiiy llnll Democracy.
The Tammany Society has passed,
during its ninety years, through live
important epochs id’ evolution, and is
iiow in its sixth. From 17SD to IS00
it was nuti-nioiiarchieal and aiili-lbr-
cigu, with Federalists oHirers and
Amcrican-Inditiii costumes, customs,
ind regalia, cultivating a distaste for
Kuropcaii modes ol government h\
the sedulous substitution of certain
>d aboriginal customs. (Is mem
bers discussed political questions, af
ter the ludiau-fnshioii, around council
tin's, at which they smoked the tradi
tional calumet, assisted, perhaps, l»y
draughts ot the traditional lire-water.
In 17!H> they received the (’reek Iii-
I in ii s, on a visit which one of the
Tammany schemes had induced the
(.'reek chiefs to make to New York,
in such ported imitations of tlie na
tive costume, and in such gorgeously
savage feathers, moccasins, ieggins,
war-paint, wnr-clnbs, nnd toma
hawks, that the Creeks set up a whoo|
of joyful rccoguiton, which the Tam
many braves mistook for the Indian
mode of savage before liumuti carv
ing and scattered in a sudden panic.
At this interview, Secretary Jeffer
son, Chief Justice Jay, Governor
George Clinton, and Mayor Duane
were present. The Creeks danced
mid sang the K-tliosong; the Tam
many Grand Sachem assured the
Creek Grand Sachems that the spir
its of Columbus and Tammany were
then promenading arm-in-arm, who
in return dubbed him by one of those
musical Indian appellations which
ought to he immortal,—Tuliva Mico,
or Chief of tlie White Town. In the
evening the entire party attended the
theat re together, and before they left,
the Creeks entered into a treaty with
“Washington, the beloved Sachem of
the Thirteen Fires.”
From these facts it will be easily
understood how the Tammany Socie-
anic to call its thirteen trustees
or directors Saeliems, and its chief
otliccr, selected from among the thir
teen, its Grand Sachem ; and why it
included among its officers a Saga
more and a Wiskinskie. But the In
dian language failing to contain any
word adequate to express either tin?
idea of a secretary or a treasurer,
while the necessities of the society
required both records and money, the
society consented to use the terms
Scribe and Treasurer. In the records
of the society, the Christian Era, be
ing an epoch of foreign origin, was
discarded, and the transactions dated
from three events,—the discovery of
America hv Columbus, the Declara
tion of Independence, aud the form
ation of the Tammany Society. The
year was divided after the strictly
native American fashion, into the
seasons of blossoms, of fruits, of har
vests, of snows. Nor were import
ed names allowed to desecrate the
mouths, which appeared on the re
cords, in supposed Indian style, at
first, second, third, etc., “moon.”
Thus, in respect of language, the
Tammany Society, in its lirst epoch,
was n faiilil’uI expression of Anglo
phobia. Joseph Ogden llotfman,
Melauelioii Smith—then a formidable
opponent of Hamilton,—Aaron Burr,
DeWitt Clinton, George Clinton and
Clarkson Crolius were conspicuous
leaders or Inspircrs of this period,
which was somewhat torn by con
flicts between the Burches, Clinlon-
ilcsaud Lewisites. The society at that
lime, however, was in no immediate
contact with the voters, knew noth
ing (d the general and district com
mittees, and was a mere private po
litical club, one of whose chief occu
pations was the collection of a muse
um of American, and particularly of
Revolutionary curiosities.
At this period the ruling spirit in
Tammany Hall was the miinilieeiit
aud generous William II. Tweed,
then in control of the street depart
ment and chairman of the board of
supervisors, ever foremost in tlie be
nevolent and genial work of distrib
uting the people’s money among us
many of the people ns he could reach.
He sent wood, coal and bread to the
poor of his Ward, nnd they paid him
to the last with their votes, lie feast
ed the paupers at Randall's Island,
and the blessings of those who had
seldom tasted turkey or champagne
were poured upon him. lie replen
ished the furniture of the eugine-
lioiiscs for the “b’liovs,” and took
care that no Democrat who served
his country faithfully at the pools on
election day should ever pine in tillhy
dungeons for lack of “straw hail.”—
Had lie been a close and philosophic
student of the decline and fall of the
Roman Empire, be could not have
understood more tlioiouglily that
when universal siiU’ragc had placed
tlie control of a great city in the
hands of its paupers, a true and saga
cious statesmanship would consist in
stealing from the rich means with
which to feed the poor. Throughout
all his princely career of lavish gen
erosity—though those to whom hr
distrilnitcd the public money were
numbered hy tens of thousands, aud
though they included public charac
ters, pimps, otlicials, strikers, gam
blers, fancy-women,amt “legislators”
—we have never heard of but one
donation from him being returned.
A Methodist church, to which lie had
given $200, allowed ils virtue to get
so much the hotter of its politeness as
to decline to receive “stolen” money.

national review for April.
