Fares and rail news plus curious notices from Albany to Buffalo
An Ohio railroad plans to run Cincinnati to Buffalo passengers for four dollars with extended lake steamers linking Sandusky City and Buffalo. Albany to Cincinnati would be about 10 5 and York to Cincinnati 1 60. A Rochester letter praises President in nonpartisan terms and notes a judge ruling that railroads aren’t liable for injuries to standing passengers against conductor warnings. Medill, Democratic governor candidate, is described as a bachelor. Local editorials mock Whigs and contemplate a Russian inventor’s unmaking meat and a statue foot on wheels resembling Satan, while silver discoveries and Australian voyage chatter close this column.
